RARAT, French Morocco, May 10
French troops today revictualed, WITH
out meeting resistance, two OF the Out
posts surrounded by Abd-El-krlm
invading Riffs, an official communlque
said.
The posts to which supplies were
taken by Col. Freydenberg are located

munioue said. It added that there Is
nothing to report In the western ana
eastern sectors.
The French began movement Ids

Both of the French officers in charge

II was disclosed.
This o,,tpost in the Bibane region
has been hotly besieged, the RIMS keep,
ing up constant machine gun ana
artillery fire and making repeated dS'
saults with hand grenades.
The French forward action. the com
munioue says, is intended to clean out
the Riffs from around several sucIi
blockhouse posts, which for more tnan
a week have been isolated. During
that time the garrisons have been re
victualed by airplanes, dropping par.
cells of food. cakes of ice in lieu OF
water and presumably small supplies
of ammunition.
News that the Bibane post was IN
such a difficult position prompted i'm
mediate action by the French. De
spite the serious wounding or both
officers, the native garrison was still
holding out at last reports. although
half the men were badly wounded, ana
IT is hoped the post can be relieved in
time.

WHEAT SHIFT SLA|D
TO SPECTATORS
Jardine Says Professional
Operations Were Aided
Materially by Public.

Wide fluctuations recently in Chi
cago wheat market prices were due
primarily to heavy trading of "a limited
number of professional spectators,
Secretary Jardine declared today in a
review of the Department of Agri-
cultures investigation.
The professional operations, the Sec
retary declared, were facilitated to a
considerable degree by the large par
ticipation of the public after material
advance in prices had occurred in the
last half of January.
Proof Still Lacking.
Proof necessary for the conviction
Of persons who might be charged with
manipulating prices has not thus far
been obtained, the Secretary said.
The Secretary's purpose, it was said,
is to undertake by the exercise of such
authority as is conferred upon him
under the grain futures act to bring
about condition where the quotations
in future trading will more accurately
reflect the prices incident to supply
and demand.
The Secretary feels that this can
be done, it is said, by appropriate ac'
ton on the part of the Board of Trade
and the promulgation of rules calcu.
lated to prevent overspeculative trad
ing. The suggestion was advanced
that rule limiting the spread in daily
quotations would have this effect.
Secretary Jardine feels that in the
event of the failure on the part OF
the exchanges designated as contract
markets to take some effective meas
ures he will be obliged. in the public
interest. to suggest additional legis
lation giving to the department au
thority to meet the situation effec
lively.
Secretary Jardine is determined tt
utilize the results of the investigation
to institute whatever prosecutions
might be justified, but he is con
cerned more particularly in the de
velopment of some method by which
a repetition of such destructive price
changes may be obviated.

League Has Stormy
Session Yesterday

Geneva )-One of the stormiest
sessions in its history occurred during
today's meeting of the council of the
League of Nations and caused Count
Quinones de Leon of Spain, president
of the council, to adjourn the session
hurriedly. The excitement arose over
charges made before the council that
Lithuania is confscating the lands of
foreign residents who in the past had
fought against Lithuania and that i'm
prisonment has been threatened per-
sons in the political minority in Lith-
uania if they send petitions to the
League Of Nations.
Armament Investigation.
In secret session the council adopt
ed a resolution by Viscount Ishii of
Japan to the effect that Germany and
the other central powers are clearly
bound by their treaties to permit such
complete investigation of their arma-
ments as the council by majority
vote may judge necessary. The coun-
Gil is convinced this stipulation will
be accepted by Germany, Austria, Bull
garia and Hungary and voted to send
letters expressing the councils view
point to those countries.
Discussion of the problem of the
League of Nations supervision of the
demilitarized Rhineland zone was post
poned until the September meeting of
the council.

which have arisen IN the public mind
it is we'll to say that the position to

basic principles to which settlement
must conform and to which there is
every reason to expect the adhesion
of Belgium and Italy"

contemplated settlement would be
strictly of bilateral character and
not one-sided as possibly has been in
ferred from some reports that have
appeared"
He concluded with the statement
that as soon as the reply to Germany's
security pact proposals have been
forwarded to Berlin he would take
steps, with the consent of the French
government to place the matter be-
