will likewise render a similar report
before departing for his new station.
It was also learned at the War De-
partment last week that a general
rea ssignment of warrant officers OF
the Army looms in the offing. Ac-
colvling to reports, the assignment OF
Army warrant officers, ever since the
war has not been done scientifically
that Is, a warrant officer skilled In the
medical department activities, in com
pliance with the request of corps
area commander. has been sent to that
headquarters, where he would be as.
signed to duty with which he was UNI
familiar. AS pointed out by War De
partment authorities last week. the
problem OF a general reaSslgnment or
warrant officers throughout the reg
ular establishment is merely in line
with increasing the efficiency of the
military establishment, and in the
event that final decision Is made in
the department to reaSsign warrant
officers. those versed in medical de-
partment matters will be assigned to
that duty. those skilled in corps area
headquarters matters will perform
those duties, etc This matter has
been up for discussion before but not
until the Army field clerks were APP
pointed warrant officers was there
any profound interest evinced in the
matter But, as was pointed out in
the department last week, if the war
rant officers of the Army are ever to
be reassigned according to their re-
spective qualifications for duty. now
Is the time. This problem Of reas-
signment assumes large proportions,
as 1t means that the War Depart
ment will have to make a close study
Of the record of every one of the war
rant grade Extreme interest is being
taken in this study and the final de-
cision Of the department as to wheth
er or not steps will be taken to re-
assign this group Of regular Army
personnel will he awaited anXiously.

BRADSTREET'S REPORT
(By Dispatch A p. Wire)

NEW YORK, Jan. Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say:
There has been an apparent slow
ing UP in trade and industry during
the past week. While manufacturing
and distributive lines generally can
be classed as fair to good and more
active than a year ago, it must be
conceded that they are not moving
with the speed exhibited earlier in
the month, and there are some ir-
Irregularities, especially in industry.
which are due to Climatic and sea-
sonal influences.
Wholesale trade shows, perhaps,
fewer signs of slackening than retail
trade or manufacturing. Wholesalers
and jobbers are getting many small
orders for immediate shipment and
some jobbers report that their stocks
of certain lines of highly styled
goods, such as silks and Raynon mix
lures. have been cleaned out by this
small quantity, quick delivery pro-
cess, while retailers are obliged to
wait for mill deliveries to come
through. This is true, however, only
of lines in which design is the pre-
dominating factor, the more staple
goods moving freely, though not ac-
lively.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Jan. 29.-Active selling
largely of profit taking character,
proved to be a stumbling block today
upsetting efforts toward higher
prices for wheat. One of the reasons
cited for the selling was official or
der requiring that grain traders,
whether members or non-members Of
exchanges, shall report to the gov
ernment any account involving 500,-
600 bushels or more. The wheat mar
ket closed unsettled, B cent to rs
cent net lower, May 1.74% to It's
and July 1.52A to 1925 with corn
Il to u down, oats unchanged to II
from five cents decline to a rise of
ten cents.
Heaviest selling in the wheat mar
ket today developed during the final
half hour and after prices had rallied
S% cents a bushel from an early low
level The rally was based more or
less on the fact that world export
purchases this week are predicted to
be the largest in some time, about
16,000,000 bushels. Besides, word was
at hand that import duties into
Czecho- -Slovakia will be removed
February l. Liberal shipments from
Australia, 4,323,OOO bushels, attracted
special aotice and so too did reports
of better milling demand in great
Britain as we'll as curtailment of
offerings from Arentina. Export de-
mand for North American wheat ap-
peared to have improved today, and
business with Europe amounting to
8OO,0 600 bushels was noted. European
buying of domestic flour at Philadel-
phia was also announced
Before the day ended, however, re-
newed selling through commission
houses here acted as a weight on
values and the market finished at
a decline with the most weakness ap-
parent in May. Some of the selling
was associated with opinions that re-
cent advances liz price had been too
rapid.
Corn and oats followed the changes
in wheat values. Country offerings
of corn to arrive were larger.
Provisions averaged higher, re-
sponsive to an upturn in the hog
market.

Revival of speculative interest in
the oil and rails shares featured the
opening of the upward movement in
todays stock market. Pool operation
again played prominent part in the
days trading being influenced by
prospects for a further reduction of
money rates next month.
The weekly mercantile reviews
stressed the fact that business was
running ahead of a year ago. Dun's
reports ''the business movements of
the first months of the year have been
mainly favorable, and encouraging
prospects predominant" explaining
further that "even in lines where re-
suits have not wholly met expecta-
tions, as in the principal metal trades
it is recognized that potential needs
are heavy and. that fundamental con-
ditions are strong"
Bradstreet's states "tnere has been
an apparent slowing up in trade and
industry during the past week" for
which climatic and seasonal influ-
ences are responsible. Spirited bid
ding for the oil shares just before
the close of the market was accom-
panied by rumors of an early in
crease in crude prices. Standard oil
of New Jersey advanced from 43%
to 46 on total transactions of less
than $4,000 shares, and Sinclair was
pushed up from % to "a, a net gain
of 25s, on total sales of nearly 115,-
900 shares. Pure Oil rallied moder-
ately on the declaration of an extra
dividend, Marland closed 23s higher
at so, and Pan American B, Texas
company General Asphalt, Maracaibo
and few others advanced a point
or so.
Rails made a belated response to
the publication of favorable Decem-
ber earnings statements under the
leadership of New York Central,
which, advanced 2h points to 131%.
Good buying also was noted in such
issues as Wabash Preferred B, South
ern Railway and Chesapeake and
Ohio. Reports that several of the
rail unions were preparing demands
for increased wages apparently were
disregarded.
Food specialties were among the
most spectacular features. Coca Cola
closed about 2 points higher and a
better demand was noted for Armour
and 3.
Other outstanding strong spots in
cluded famous players, international
Combustion Engine and Durham Hos
iery, all of which closed 3 to points
higher. Call money opened at four
per cent but advanced to 5 in the af-
ternoon, closing at the top. Time
money and comemrcial paper rates
We're unchanged.
A rally of about five points in
French francs, which toucehd $3.50
cents for the first time in over two
weeks, was the feature of the firm
foreign exchange market. Demand
sterling ruled just under $4.86 and
Japanese yen were back to As cents.

Southwestern Railway says traffic
conditions in the southwest are
steadier than last winter and earn
ings probably will follow the same
course, with January net income
equal to a year ago. Abnormal con-

MEX|CO'S LAND
LAW DECLARED
CONF |sCAT0RY
Statute Changes Ownership
in Fee Simple to
Life Estate.
d. unirersnI service.

MEXICO CITY, April 2.-The OBJ
jections of the United States to the
new Mexican alien land law, as stated
in the correspondence subsequent TO
the publication of the regulations for
the enforcement Of the law, were
learned definitely today.
The first objection raised is that
the new law changes ownership in fec
simple to an estate for life only. Inc
other principal objection is that I'M
der the new law foreigners must
place their property on the market
for Mexican buyers. Because there
would not be enough buyers able TO
pay fair values, the law virtually
means confiscation.
The regulations governing the en-
forcement of the oil law are still not
clear, but clauses thus far interpreted
leave no doubt they closely follow
the constitution and act of congress
and that all titles to the sub-sOil
must be revalidated. This will throw
so many properties into court that
most of the companies are said to be
preparing to pull up stakes.
