CHICAGO. Aug 25.-Expert sales of
wheat in all positions Friday were estimated
at 800. 900 to 400 900 bushels. mostly hard
winters C. 1. (. Montreal. There was little
business at the gulf and a small trade in
garlicky wheat at Philadelphia
Chicago grain men back from Canada re-
ported less optimistic feeling at Winnipeg
regarding the crop. The mere conserva tive
interests now expect d smaller crop than in
1922 and talk 1926 900 bushels for western
Canada.
With wet weather causing the quality to
be lowered in some instances and yield esti-
mate expected to decline, grain interests In
Minneapolis are reported extremely bullish
in regard to spring wheat.
Conservative grain mon are advising
against traders becoming too encouraging
and buying on bluges, although the believe
purchases should be made on all sharp
price recessions.

French Stubborn

All that is clear at the moment is
the stubbornness Of the French at
titude, NJ Poinoare has not so far
reoeded one millimetre from his origi-
nal position. Threats and caJoleries
alike are answered by a repetition Of
the same formulas, with slight vari-
atoms in word or phrase which one
would expect from a practiced writer.
But the theme is always the same,
and The application is identical to the
point of monotony. He is not win
ming much coal out of his discourses,
but to do him justice he Is getting
something for his country.
Last year, Lord Balfour. in the
rote he sent to the allies on behalf
of the British government. offered to
forego all claims for debts and repa-
rations If Britain were secured against
payment of the American debt. That
meant the surrender of claims aggre-
eating over 3,000,0 900 pounds in
return for 1000. 5000 pounds. A
very handsome and generous offer.
The Curzon note proposed to surren-
der all our claims for 10000, 900
pounds. The Ruhr occupation has al
ready brought down the British claim
against the allies by 100000, 900. NJ.
Poincare may not be able to extract
Preparations out of Germany. but in
seven months he has succeeded in
forcing 2s0O00,O 900 pounds OUT of
Great Britain. He will certainly ask
for more-and probably get II.
Mr. BOnar Law was right when he
said that under certain conditions
Great Britain would be the only coun-
try to pay war indemnity. Those
conditions have arisen under hiA sue
cessors. -

Recovery Retarded

The mischief of the Ruhr lies not
in the creation of bad trade, but in
the retarding Of the, process Of re-
covery. 1t has undoubtedly had that
effect. Before the French entered the
Ruhr trade was gradually, if slowly,
improving all round. The prices of
1922 were lower than those Of 1921.
Therefore the contrast in sterling was
not as apparent as 1t became when
you examine weights and measures.
Export figures. notably In manu-
featured goods. show a decided In
crease on those Of the preceding year.
The effect of the Ruhr disturbance
would continue for some time If the
penknife were removed now. For the
present, NJ. Poincare is wedging it in
more deeply and firmly. But even If
he withdrew 1t, the works would not
recover their normal steadiness for
long while. During these last dis
turbing months Germany has become
appreciably poorer. Her wealth pro-
duction has been depressed through
out most Of her Industrial areas. To
a certain extent Lorraine and Belgium
have also been affected adversely.
The reservoir of wealth upon which
industry draws has not been filing up
as 1t ought to II the world is ever to
recover.

1t is not often 1 find myself in
agreement with NJ. Poincare. but
when he says that British unemploy-
ment is not attributable to occupation
Of the Ruhr / am in entire accord
with him. In November last called
the attention of the House Of Com
mons to world conditions which In
Juriously affected our export trade,
and which made unemployment on a
large scale inevitable in the British
labor market for some time TO come.
We are more dependent on our
overseas trade, export and import
shipping, and incidental business than
any country in the world. Nearly
half of our industrial and commercial
activities are associated with outside
trade in all its forms. That is not
a full statement OF the case, for If this
important section OF our business
were to languish, home trade would
also inevitably suffer by the con-
sequential diminution in the purchas-
ing capacity of our people.

PRES. QUIGLEY REPLIES
TO ATTACK ON COLLEGE

President Quigley of Western State
college, in reply to an official report
made by Harry Cassidy, State Budget
and Efficiency Commissioner, to Gov
Sweet, in which Cassidy made an at,
tack on the Western State college
asserting the dormitory to be a veri
table fire-trap and unfit for use, con.
tradicts the statement and charges
Cassidy with a part in a political
game.
President Quigley states that the
one frame building used as an emerg.
ency dormitory, is as safe if not saf.
er than the ordinary home, and that
every precaution has been taken to
safeguard students occupying it. The
beaver-board lining is painted with
mineral paint, and the roof is of fire.
resistent material. The building is
equipped with fire stops, two dozen
chemical fire-extinguishers and suffi-
cient hose to reach every foot of the
building in case of fire. No window is
higher than twelve feet from the
ground and there are three six-foot
stairways leading from the upper
story to the ground. AS an extra pre-.
caution, the building is guarded day
and night.
