GRAIN PRICES
START STRONG
Good Advances ChaIked Up
in Wheat Trading.

CHICAGO, March 12.-Grain
prices opened higher on the Chicago
Board Of Trade today.
The advance in the wheat opening
ranged from 20 in the July delivery
to IL in the May, old. Predictions
of a higher market are based upon
the belief that with the domestic
situation and close adjustment Of the
world supply to demand. together
with higher Liverpool and Argentine
openings today, as well as the re-
port of the samllest stock OF con-
tract wheat ever know at this time
of year, wheat prices are bound to
advance.
The Chicago market Is congested
and subject to sharp and wide price
fluctuations. However local traders
are Of the opinion further advances
are inevitable. The strength of the
Kansas City, Minneapolis and
Omaha markets also is given credit
for enabling Chicago prices to main
tain their present level.
Corn opened fractionally higher.
In lieu of its recent slump and nat
ural quiet market, traders were not
disappointed with todays market.
Oats opened fractionally up in the
July and May delivery but remained
unchanged in the September. De-
spite the slight advances this grain
continues in rut. Provisions
opened lower.

PRESSURE OF
GOD DISCUSSED
Lenten Speaker Says Man Is
Pushed Toward Coal.

The Venerable William Burrows.
archdeacon Of the Episcopal Diocese
of Indianapolis. preached the clos
IL sermon Of the third weeks Len
ten series at Christ Church at noon
today, discussing Pressure"
THE thoughtful man is aware Of
the presence Of pressure in human
life, pressure that comes from
without" he said. ITO the Christian
this is the pressure Of the hand Of
God. AS It is true in the field Of
the physical and mental, so is 1t true
in the field of the spiritual and
moral. God is pressing humanity
toward a goal. The yielding Of the
individual to the pressure OF God is
expression. We are free to express
our life in the direction Of Gods
purposes. or contrary to Gods pur-
poses. This is mans free Will. II
man goes contrary to Gods pur-
pose, Gods grace Is changed to
mans disgrace. and the ease Of fol-
lowing Gods courage becomes dis
ease"

PROSECUTORS
FEES NOT TO
BE RESTRAIN
But Commissioner Says
Individuals May Take --'
Action.

Commissioner Cassius L. Hogie TO-
day said county commissioners
would not take any action TO re.
strain Albert II. Losche, county
clerk, from paying the three special
deputy attorneys general prosecu-
tors fees assessed In all liquor law
convictions. However, Hogle said
the matter has been talked over
with certain individuals" who prob
ably would seek court action before
the next payment on April 10.
Thursday commissioners said they
thought the deputies. paid on a fee
system, were receiveing too much
money. Prosecutor William II. Remy,
under whom the deputies work, in a
statement asserted the pay Is not
too exorbitant. He asserted they
are securing many convictions.
The statement by Mr.. Remy Is
misleading, and not what expected
from a. man who processes his
ideals" said Hogle.
Under the statute the prosecuting
deputy Is entitled 70 $25 fee upon
conviction IN municipal court. II
any appeal is taken and the convic.
ton sustained, the defendant must
pay a $50 fee. Under the law, the
prosecutorH must conduct their Office
and employ help as well as take
their salaries out OF fees collected,
During the past two months the fees
have been In excess Of $4,000 a
month.
Make the bootlegger pay, that
is the only way 10 curb this traffic"
said Remy.
