1 WHEN DO WE EAT?

American COunsul Mixes Dough As
 Greek Bakers Join Strike

GICCh odhcGS JOlH OLIAhC
 ATHENS, August 22.-American Consul John G. Erhardt rolled up his sleeves, grabbed sieve and started mixing dough in a bakery Wednes day when the bakers of the Near East relief kitchens here joined the Greek general strike.
 With him were Prof. Charles Boyn- ton, Dr. Samuel Gavert and Charles " Vickery, the first two Aperican visitors, and the third a prominent official of the relief organization.
 Thousands of hungry Greek and Armenian orphans, refugees from the massacres of Anatolia and smyrna are being sheltered in Athens in American relief hostels, and they clamored for food.
 When the Greek bakers walked out they left enough bread on hand for about five minutes supplies for youngsters who have learned the taste of American food.
 In the one-time palace of ex-King Constantine, 5000 children waited to eb fed. Amid the marble pillars of the ruined city of Hadrian, refugees squatted where emperors once walked and asked in limpid Armenian, the world wide question, When do we eat"
 The four Americans between them expect to produce 1,CO0 loaves daily They are being assisted by a half dozen orphan boys, and are working with primitive Greek ovens, where the bread is baked on flat stones heated by a roaring wood fire.

PUBLIC CAUTIOUS AS CLOUDS LOON
 OVER WALL STREET
Attack On Coal Carrying Roads Offsets Some Of
 Days Earlier Gains
BY WALTER s. BROWN Editor New York Commercial Leased Wire tn Are-Hera1d

NEW YORK, Aug, 22-Before tneIe can be real bull movement in stecHs, there must be a little more III III the way of public participation. ne public, however, has recovered Iuls confidence, although there are ssddications of its gradual returna This was evidenced by better tone 10 the marekt throughout the great CT part of today's session. Some early pressure gave way before substantial support, although in the late session, an attack on the hard coal carrying roads offset some of the earlier gains
 Two things are worrying Wall street. The foreign situation Is course of uncertainty, for there Is no telling what a day may bring forth. Members of official Washing ton who have been abroad, includ- lng Secretary of the treasury Mel lon and Secretary of Labor Davis, as well as Senator Shoot, viewing the opposition from different angles, are we'll agreed that the condition of things abroad is beyond human un- derstanding and that there is nothing we can do at this time to help matters. This Is in line with the Ideas of President Coolidge, and Is a Vindication of the attitude of President Harding in keeping his hands off European affairs. It Is an- other matter, however, to lend hand in the settlement of economic affairs, but the trouble is that the two are now so interwoven, that they cannot for the time being be separ- ated.
 O O O
 Strike Question Looms
 The other matter that Is causing Wall street much concern, Is the now probable anthracite coal strike. The miners have declared their intention of going out on September l, if their demands are not granted by that time, they say it is possible to grant them increased wages without in- creasing the cost of coal to the con- sumer. Perhaps it can be done, but the operators deny 1t. It is there fore, a question of fact and the facts ought to be available as a re- suit of the years labors of the fact finding committee.
 Coal prices are as high, if not higher, than the public can stand and If there is any slack anywhere, 1t should be given to the public. It would go toward reducing the cost Of living in which benefits the miners would participate.

BUYING OF CORN RESULTS IN RALLY. IN WHEAT PRICES

CHICAGO, August 22.-Buying of December corn just before the close started a covering movement on the part of shorts and served to increase demand for grain from other sources. As a result wheat prices rallied and closed near the top prices of the day. final figures showing a net gain of & Ac, with December $1.05 to $1.05M and May $1.101z @1.10A. Corn was up Ac to l %c, oats 1 # c to 15c higher and provisions unchanged to 15c lower.
 Wheat prices failed to deviate much in either direction from the close of the previous day. Prediction of frost in parts of the northwest, causing apprehension to the Cana dian crop, failed to materialize. Low temperatures, however, were re- ported from sections of that country. as well as from parts of the domestic wheat area, and resulted in some scattered selling, while the advance at Liverpool furnished an incentive to buy. In the late dealings there was a covering movement on ths part of houses which were short on corn, and this acted as stimulant to wheat.
 Trade in corn was marked with ir regularity. Orders in September were light, but 1t was difficult to execute them, and prices rose and fell in turns. Buying of this delivery was mainly by shorts, while the selling was in the way of accepting profits. More distant months were relatively airm and benefited by the advance in hogs. Weather and crop news was generally favorable.
 Oats exhibited firmness during the greater part of the session.
 Provisions were In light trade and the tone weak despite the firmness in hogs.

forming in every group and every interest that has become a living part of American civilization. The benefits that have already come to have added strength and substance to the sentiment for law observance. Approval of Business Men.
 In the practical field of American business are to be found some of pro- conviction has developed along prac- tical, solid lines.
 A short time age Alexander P. Moore, recently appointed ambassa- dor to Spain, man of large affairs, returned from an important mission to Europe, where he had made thorough investigation of social and economic conditions. He startled me by saying that conditions were so bad in a certain European country, that drunkenness was so rampant and all the attending evils were so fragrant, it was his opinion that un- less something was done similar to the enactment of our prohibition law the civilization cf that great country was in grave danger of crumbling.
 To me that statement carried par ticular weight because 1t fitted In thoroughly with the statement of one of the leading scientific men of America, holding high executive po- sition with one of our great corpora ti1ns, who had but shortly before re- turned from a business trip where he had studied conditions in his commercial field. He said that the drunkenness and consequent com parative lack of efficiency in these large competing concerns of Europe led him to the conclusion that they cannot compete with his concern or n atH ha tween America and Europe which the next decade will witness unless the countries of Europe enact some law or establish some governmental agencies that will check the intem- perance of their employees.
 The Manufacturers Record, pub lished in Baltimore. recently made public a symposium of opinions ex-' pressed by the leading business men Of the country in response to ques- tionnaire addressed to them. No man can read this most thought conviction that business men them selves have formed the conviction that prohibition is an economic force lying at the very heart of Americas survival in the commercial world. The preponderating opinion of great business men is clearly that prohi bition has already been most effec- tive in. its operation among the workers of the nation, and because of this it has greatly increased eff ciency and set America observably ahead both financially and morally. It has increased the purchasing power of the worker and has made for a more contented working class, more thrifty working class and a better working class.

CURB REACTING| IN TONE DURING MOST OF TRADING

NEW YORK, August 22.-Selline orders again predominated in today's curb market, with the result that the list displayed reactionary tone dur ing most of the day. A brief furry of buying took place in the early afternoon, but the rally was not maintained.
 Active oil shares showed only frac- tional changes on the day. A cut in mid-continent crude prices by an in- dependent refiner was not regarded seriously and failed to bring out any extensive liquidation Magnolia Petroleum dropped points on odd lot transactions and Prairie Oil and Gas lost one on sales of less than 200 shares Standard Oil of Indiana, the leader in point of activity, closed ss lower at 5212 after having sold nearly point above that figure.
 Durant Motors climbed 2h points to 4211, but fell back to 40A, up A. Other motors registered fractional losses.
 The feature of the mining group was the establishment of a new high for the year by continental mines.
