Wheat, Corn Up Fractions
Oats Weak.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, March 25.-Trade sem
timent remains mostly bearish on
wheat, although the short interest
has been reduced and there is less
pressure from sellers except on
bulges. The disposition Of most trad
ers is to look for irregular lower
prices. Opening quotations were sc
higher to Bc lower than yesterdays
close. Liverpool was about as due
and there was no change apparent
in the prevailing favorable weather
conditions in the southwest;
Corn was rather low at the close
and the trade is inclined to look for
a slight rally. Opening prices were
4 ito 5sc higher than the previous
close. q, 1t is said there have been
heavy sales of wheat of late as a
hedge against holding Of corn; also
that considerable long corn has been
unloaded through open sales and
through bids.
Oats also are at new low levels and
not much of a recovery is looked
for at the present with the slow cash
Cenand. Prices opened unchanged

RUSSIANS TAKE

Even Peasants Like Ener-

BU CHted Press
MOSCOW. March 25.-The Charles
tor has penetrated triumphantly to
the remotest parts of the Soviet
Union. Music stores in Moscow and
other large cities report that the de-
mand for photograph records of
Charleston music is brisk among the
benighted peasants, many of whom
acquired monographs in ethe 1920
famine period by exchanging grain
for the talking machines of city
jewellers.
Far from being forbidden as has
been reported, the Charleston. is
sweeping Russia. There are even
faint signs that the Black Bottom
may gain favor and details of that
dance are anxiously sought. In a
few workmens clubs the Charleston
has been banned, but this has not
checked its popularity.
The earlier dances brought over
from the United States, such as jazz,
the fox trot and the "sheemy' still
have their ardent devotees. Jazz, in
fact. and the fox trot were used
prominently, in a number of theatri.

eminent Of Russia, although he holds
no official position invented his name

is Yussov Djugashvili. He had to
abandon it because his work against

Lenin will be known to history as
Nikolai Lenin, not as vladimir
Ulianov, which is the name given
him at his christening. His wife,
instead of calling herself Ulianova,
as is usual, adopted the name OF
Krupskaya.
Trotsky has made his assumed
name world famous, for he is not
Trotsky at. all. His name is actually

and Kamenev are not the names
which their bearers were given by
their parents at birth. The fact that
