GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, April 2S P).-With indi-
cations pointing to liberaLldecrease
of the T. S. visible supply total on
Monday next wheat prices today
averaged higher. Crop news. from the
southwest acted, though, as bearish
factor in the late dealings.
Closing quotations on wheat were

equal gain; corn and oats both un-
changed to a cent up and provisions
varying from 10 cents decline to rise

At first the wheat market was
noticeably influenced by reports of

share of attention.
Good export demand for North
American wheat today, resulting in
sales of 100000 bushels, helped to keep

trade leaders pointed out that heavy
shipments of old crop supplies to
Europe have been absorbed at sur

clearances were being predicted and q
smaller carryover. Reports that field
work in Iowa is two to three weeks

WASTING WATER.

Competent engineers more than two years ago surveyed the water supply of Juneau and pronounced it ample for city several times as large as we now have. They also investigated partly at least, the then causes Of current shortage that was affecting some sections of the community. They reported that pure waste was responsible for the situation Business houses and private citizens protecting their pipes from freezing and themselves from consequent loss of water service by letting the water run continuously with the result that the system was being drained and many people on the higher levels and some in lower lying parts of town were without water.
 It is apparent that the present lack of water in almost the same areas as in 1925 is caused by the same waste Without it, it seems evident that every house in the community would be get ting first class service with ample water for every need, domestic and public. That waste can be stopped is plainly apparent to everyone That it should be stopped, few if ony will deny. It is easily possible to install pipes service and mains in such manner to prevent freezing in the mild climate which have. The cost would not be great to anyone. In fact, it would be less than the cost of the water wasted were each house put on meter Health and sani- tation convenience and protection of property are all dependent upon uninterrupted and enl- to see that it is assured and both the water companies and the public should prepare to mee their respective responsibilities, whatever they prove to be- so that there will be no future shortages caused by waste of supply.

Dave Barry, the referee who tolled
the long count" when Tunney was
down in the seventh round of the
title fight, was at the banquet.
Incidental to his errand as an agent
of Santa Claus, the champion talked
boxing business a little with Pro-
moter Jim Mullen in regard to a
heavyweight championship battle
here next Summer. However he re
ferred most of the questions to his
manager. Billy Gibson.

tract Tunney now has with Richard

AS to Jack Delaney, the champion
! manager was not so enthusiastic
about a proposed match with him, be
cause of Delaney's poor showing
against Jim Maloney.

CHICAGO, December 14.-Inspired
by the presence of Gene Tunney,
5000 Chicagoans joined in a Christ
mas fund banquet last night which
turned out to be one of the most re-
markable social affairs in the history
of Chicago.
The Tunney admirers not only
raised more than 100000 through the
banquet, to provide Christmas baskets
for Chicago's poor, but tossed q
shower of 500, $500 and 81 200 checks
at the Christmas fund chairman for
blocks of seats at a Christmas fund
boxing program next Monday. Nearly
$4,000 was raised in few minutes
by this auction.
The champion rewarded the gather.
ing with his personal views of the
controversy over the famous long
count" of Soldier Field last September,
in a 15-minute address. The heavy
weight champion expressed his
opinion of any one who would impugn
the honesty of the ring officials or the
city and State officials back Of them.
Tunney coined a word to describe
such criticism. calling it "unsporting. y
Most of Tunney's talk was devoted
to the battle of the 'long count" but
he led off by thanking the Christmas
fund committee for giving him the op
portunity to help bring Christmas
cheer to Chicago's poor.
'These poor people" Gene said, "are
part of us, part of our social fabric
and we must realize that they are our
obligation"
Then he swung into his comment
on the Soldier Field fight last Sep
