Trading in Grain Futures at Chicago

That the Chicago Board Of Trade lie
required to permit the delivery Uf
grain on futures contracts at other
important markets than Chicago un.
der proper safeguards and equitable
terms. whenever necessary In order
to prevent squeeze or corner In the
Chicago market. -...
Finally, the commission reiterates a
recommendation that the railroads
might be encouraged to furnish, or the
state or federal government might as.
sumo the duty Of furnishing adequate
storage elevator capacity at conven-
lent market points. especially at Chi.
cago, free from control or operation
by any grain dealer. broker or com.
mission house. In order to remove the
artificial conditions frequently occur
ring there.
It Is also recommended such storage
charges and other conditions that the
grain farmer or merchant would be
able to store grain In competition with
elevator merchandlsers while, by
means Of negotiable warehouse re.
.ceipts obtained for such grain, the
farmer would be aided In borrowing
money to finance his crop.
The report contains quotations from
letters written by grain merchants and
from statements made at public hear.

feet which speculation on the Chicago

Prehistoric Pottery From New Mexico

mated is a plateau shut of from other
drainage areas on both the east and
the west by high ranges and noun
tains. This plateau extends across the
border into Mexico, so that naturally
the Mlmbres pottery differs very little
from that Of the pueblo areas. The
various collections include food bowls,
e0igy vases, jars. ladies' and dlppera
Of all kinds.
The predominant design on the pot
terry Is that showing food animals,
such as deer, antelope, turkeys, rab-
bits, and the like, from which DR..
Fewkes concludes that animal food
formed considerable part Of the diet
Of the ancient Mimbrenos, although
there Is evidence that they were also
agriculturists and fishermen. The de-
signs were painted on the inside sur.
face Of clay bowls, the colors OF
which are white, red, brown or black
The majority Of the bowls pictured
In the pamphlet were mortuary bowls
that Is, they were buried with the
dead under floors of the houses
Nearly all Of the bowls thus buried
are "killed," or punctured, and usually
are found beside the skeleton with
which they were buried.

growth Of local Indebtedness In
h the United States have Just been
made public as the result Of tax
alton researches by the national indus
trial conference board.
The board finds that public expendi-
lures are not related to the amount
received from taxation, because public
bodies can spend far more than their
income by relying on the medium Of
public credit. Thus future generations
will be weighed down by debts, the
proceeds Of which are being used for
the construction Of improvements that
the present generation is enjoying and
many Of which will outlive their use

That all brokers, and all commits

speculating In grain futures for their
own account.
That the car delivery rule and the
settlement rule for defaulted futures
contracts on the Chicago Board 0f

piled by an impartial person or tri-
bunal, because the rules involve CON-
plex questions Of fact, and because
