By r. WEBB SPARKS
Market Editor of The Times -

Despite Mondays slight advance in
price, leading grain operators con-
tinue to express decidedly bearish
opinions on the wheat outlook, point
ing to the steadily decreasing cash
demand and the weakened foreign
outlet as a decidedly disturbing fac
tor in an already disturbing situation.
Receipts continue to increase daily,
evidencing a general offering Of fresh
ly thrashed stocks.
H. L. Winters Of the Chicago of
fee Of Thomson & McKinnon, brokers,
had this to say Of the situation Mon
day:
Receipts Of wheat at primary mar
kets will doubtless be heavy this
week Unless an improvement In
foreign demand develops, and this
does not seem probable, prices must
sag. Kansas City reported its July
wheat declining 25sc Saturday with
out a trade.
Further restrictions against spec
ulative operations as recommended by
the Federal Trade Commission will
unquestionably act to further dis
couragement of constructive activity
I see nothing but lower prices ahead
Of us for wheat. Corn is in a strong
position and will offer resistance to
pressure"

LIVESTOCK MEN
REPAYINC LOANS
FORMER CONGRESSMAN MON
DELL SAYS THIS is EVIDENCE
OF BETTER CONDITIONS
Nearly $5,OOO,OOO of $11,415,OOO
Loaned in Montana by War Fin
ance Corporation Has Been Re-
paid; Diversified Farmer Best Off.

Indisputable evidence that the ag-
ricultural interests of the country,
and particularly of the west, are get
ting back on their feet in a most en-
%couraging manner is e. in the fact
that farmers, during the last two
years, have repaid to the government
nearly half the money they borrowed
through the War Finance corpora
ton, according to Frank w. Mon
dell, former congressman from Wy
oming, and now director of the cor
poration.
These repayments not only point
to betterment of conditions among
farmers and stock growers, but also
among banks, Mr.. Mondell said, for
although a large part of the hqulda-
ton represents an actual decrease OF
Indebtedness by farmers, a portion OF
it means that local banking institu-
tions are now in a position to take
care of farmers and stock growers
needs on virtually the same terms as
offered by the government body.
Mr.. Mondell spent a day in Billings
comforting with Roy j. Covert, mem
Der of the War Finance corporation
committee in Montana.
ST left Washington about three
weeks ago." said Mr.. Mondell, "for
a trip through the western territory
which is my particular district and
includes all hat territory west of the
Dakotas and Iowa, including Mis-
souri, and Oklahoma, to the coast,
except New Mexico and Texas. I am
visiting in particular the agencies of
the war finance corporation to learn
conditions, present situations and
outlook for the future.
States Share $11,415,OOO
''The war finance corporation has
had loans in this state totaling SILL
49, $4,703,000 of which has
been repaid to the corporation since
we started operations in Montana
about two years ago." the visitor con-
tinued. "War finance corporation
loans are made through banks and
livestock loan companies but all are
made on agricultural and livestock
collateral, and while they are not
made direct to the farmer, hel gets
the benefit of every dollar of the
loan.
"The corporation has loaned in the
past two years nearly $300,000,OOO
in aid of agriculture, including live
stock growing, mixed farming, wheat
raising, etc. Under the law as it now
stands the corporations active period
for making new loans will expire
next April, but the corporation will
still be authorized to make extern
sions of loans as agricultural inter-
ests may require. Inasmuch as the
war finance corporation is a tenn
porary and emergency organization,
hope that regular banking insti-
and new agricultural credit
organizations, provided for by con-
gress at the recent session, will, in
a reasonable time, occupy the field
and extend credits heretofore extend
