Heavy Grain Movement
Over the Great Lakes
BY GUY II. ROCKWELL.
Special Correspondent of The Star.

CLEVELAND, September 21.-The
grain movement over the great lakes
this season is expected to be very
heavy. Boats were being chartered
today for October and November load
ings, and receipts at Buffalo are far
ahead of this time last year.
Although carriers predict that the
northwest will not get quite its full
quota Of coal this year. Indications to-
day We're that the shortage will be
slight. Coal men say sufficient fuel
can be mined, and 1t is just a question
of the ability of railroads to move it
from the mines.
Since the appointment OF Clarence
Neal as fuel administrator, the spot
price of steam coal has dropped to
$4.25 at the mines, decline Of more
than 81 a ton since the strike ended.

Better Business Outlook
in Kansas City District
BY DICK SMITH.
Special Corfespondent Of Tho Star.


KANSAS CITY, September 21.-The
banks of this district today are in
better condition to Withstand any de-
mands upon them than they were
three months ago. This is taken as
an evidence of general improvement
in business in this section. The fig
ures today showed that deposits, cash
holdings and total resources have in
creased while loans are smaller.
Motor trucks are being used to
haul cattle to the Kansas City live
stock market from points fully 200
miles distant. This move was
brought about by the shortage of
railroad cars and difficulty encounter
ed in getting stocker and feeder cat
tl4 to market. This business is ex-
pected to cut into the, short haul of
the carriers even after rail traffic re-
turs to normal. Business men in this
section are showing keen interest in
the southwestern business congress
which will meet in Tulsa, Okla, Oc-
tober 18.
