SPRING CROP OUTLOOK
HOLDS WHEAT STEADY
Advances to New High Records for
Season Fail to Hold-Compara-
tive Advance Small.
nv the Associated Press

ny the Associated Press
CHICAGO, April with big VIM
ter wheat acreage losses now well known,
trade attention Is turning more toward
cheerful crop prospects at present
throughout the Spring wheat belt. An
outstanding feature Is apparent likeli-
hood that the loss in Winter wheat
will have the effect of stimulating pro-
duction Of Spring wheat to a notable
extent.
Under such circumstances wheat price
advances TO new high records for the
season have failed to hold, and the
market this morning compared with a
week back showed net gains varying
from only "a cent a bushel to lal Ia
cents. Meanwhile. corn was 3l4 10 4ls
cents down. oats 1h4 TO li4al3s cents
off and provisions at 7 to 20 cents de-
cline.
According TO advices current here to-
day, seeding of Spring wheat In the
American Northwest has made rapid
progress, and more than so per cent of
seed is already in the ground in South
Dakota. At this rate the work should
be general over the more northern Sec
tions OF the domestic belt in 10 days or
less. provided there is no important de-
lay, such as from heavy rains. Accu-
rate estimates OF Spring wheat acreage
are not yet available. but assertions are
made that the Canadian prairies will
show q gain OF fully 100000 seeded
acres

The prices of some OF the South

Island compare favorably today with
those before the reorganization of these
roads, as they should. for both systems
are infinitely stronger in every respect
than they were between 1910 and 1915.
1t may also be said Of Northern Pacific
and Great Northern that as tranSpor-
tation machines they are much stronger
now with the stocks around par than
they were when the one was being
bought between $50 and 1892 a share
20 years ago and the other at nearly
$3.50 share, although both then were

stocks including Wabash common.

Gould system which fell to pieces. that
have had the benefit Of competitive
buying in the process of reforming the
Eastern railroad alliances. The unde-
veloped values however, lie in the
stocks of those railroads that In the
past have been preferred by investors
because of their strong strategic posi-
tions and their ability year after year
to earn their dividends and set aside a
substantial portion of revenues as a
reserve for expansions and betterments
and to strengthen their credit position

Two-Day Holiday" Means Just Toll
For Thousands of Wall Street Clerks

when the Stock Exchange takes a re-
cess were crowded as usual at noon,
and the thousands of bookkeepers,
clerks and stenographers formed the
usual midday jam in Battery Park,
overlooking New York Harbor, during
the lunch hour.
The Stock Exchange was closed yes
terday and today for no other reason
than to provide time in which to clear
away the extraordinary amount of work
which has accumulated because of
human inability to complete hundreds
of extra tasks during working hours.
Toiling over the so-called holiday came
on top of an unprecedented run of over
time, which in the case of many broker
age house workers has run far into the
mornings small hours.

Nervous Market Is Held Due to

CHICAGO. April tH1.--Lower prices
for butter and nervous, unsettled mar

lack of confidence rather than 70
burdensome supplies.
leading feature is an exceptionally
narrow price range between top and
low scores. This Is due to the fact that
supplies OF the lower grades are rather
closely cleaned UP each day, whereas
the better grades are slow sale and
rather freely offered.
Little indication of an improved mar
met Is apparent, unless supplies become
lighter or demand is increased 1t is
pointed out, however. that remaining
stocks in storage are not large, as COM

 "The job of Lord Mayor, t, my mind, is to make every section of the community feel that they share in the communal life"

 AMERICAN IDEALS

{ PARIS, Jan. 17-Burlesquing of America's supposed attempt to re. form the world. gets blame and praise for a new play, "TelescoD- age" by Paul de Mont, Belgian.
 American fbraggadocio is con sidered much exaggerated by crit tics who have seen the United States but in general there is a sort of chuckle over showing up the dollar kings"
 Calvin Calthrop," the pivot of the comedy, has the worlds larg- est sardine-box factory and comes to France to show how the world ought to be run. He brings a telescope through which may bs seen the world as it should be. His uncouthness, his newly-rich attitude. and his consciousness of America's superiority draw laughs from the French.
 What pleases them most is that the fantastic American eventually succumbs to evidences of Eu- ropean excellence in beauty, cui- ture and even in some forms of industry, so the audience goes away happy in the conviction that Americans are wind-bags, who de- fate naturally in the old world atmosphere.
 A few critics comment that the kind of American represented i.s as fantastic as the comic opera type of Frenchman of the Ame-i- can stage. with silk hat, goatee. frock coat and wild gesticulation.

STATE BANKS LIMITED
IN DEPOSIT INTEREST

State banks in Minnesota will be
prohibited from paying an interest
rate of more than 4 per cent on saw
ings deposits after July 1, or on GER
tificates of deposit issued or renewed
after that date.
An order to that effect was issued
late Friday by A. j. Veigel, state
commissioner of banks, who said
that the action was taken to aid the
public in fulfilling its demand for
safe banks to protect its savings.
1--WE are entirely satisfied that no
bank under the present financial con-
ditions and the low interest rates paid
on gilt edge securities, can afford to
pay more than 4 per cent on time
deposits" Mr.. Viegers order said.
The commissioners order instructs
all state banks to investigate thor
oughly the interest they can afford
to pay on time deposits, and II nee
essary to reduce their dates. Many
banks are now paying 8 per cent, the
order said, and many others should
adopt thst rate.-St Psul Pioneer
