GRAIN PRICES GAIN
ON INITIAL TRADING
Forecast of Hoover Speech Affects
Wheat-Corn Market
Bullish.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, November 2.-Grain
prices showed an early upward trend
today. Some of the buying of wheat
was associated with talk that Hoover's
speech at ST. Louis tonight would deal
with plans of farm relief Unfavorable
weather had bullish effect on corn.
Opening 1s to u higher wheat after
ward held near to initial figures Corn
started Is to l Is up and subsequently
reacted little. Oats were firm. Pro-
visions likewise slanted upgrade.
Houses with foreign connections led
the buying in the wheat market today,
but advances brought out profit-taking
sales. In addition TO purchases based
on gossip about possible farm relief de-
velopments, reports were at hand con-
tinuing to stress likelihood of reduced
official crop estimates in Canada. It
was pointed out that the Dominion
government reports are made in cah
operation with those by provincial off,
cials and that the Dominion estimate
would therefore probably make use of
recent pulliSh figures from the Province
of Alberta, as well as making modifica-
tions in regard to other provinces.
Widespread rain or snow in the
greater part of the corn belt counted
in favor of buyers in the corn market.
Besides, exporters continued to outbid
Chicago for corn at interior points in
Illinois, On the other hand, analysis
of latest unofficial crop estimates in
dicated that the crop Is heaviest in
commercial corn sections and lightest
in less important commercial corn
areas.

an annual $40 dividend basis, as against
the previous $12 rate. Persistent talk
of plans for capitalization of cash sur

pendents.
In the utility group, Northeastern

attention. United Gas 81 Improvement

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
DECLARED BRIGHT
Rise in Copper Prices and
Other Developments Point
to Production Gain.
BY J. C. ROYLE
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 1.-THE
strong position Of copper undoubtedly
has been the feature Of the current
week in the business and industrial
world. The red metal has now risen
in price to a level where production
Is possible even by high-coSt concerns,
and properties which have been closed
for a year or more are opening up.
This is providing work for thousands
of men in the mining and aflliated in
dustrieS.
The decision of the Pennsylvania
Railroad to electrify its lines will mean
the consumption of additional hundreds
Of thousands of pounds of copper dur
ing the next three years. Both domeS-
tic and foreign demand is now heavy.
Production is increasing, but has not
yet reached stage where it is likely
to cause drop in prices. Lead and
zinc remain steady.
Miners Wages Increased.
Wages of miners have been increased
in many Of the copper properties and
production is now running at rate
in excess of $500 tons OF copper a
month.
The high rate of industrial activity
| has stimulated electric equipment sales,
and manufacturers are pressing pro-
duction. The Christmas demand for
household electric devices undoubtedly
will be very heavy. The automobile
factories are now actively engaged in
preparation of the new models for
1929, but output Of present models
continues at very high rate: Out
put of parts and accessories Tor the
new models Is keeping the accessory
y1laV@4. mall nnoouod Tire TlrOdJirtiOn
is dropping.
The cement outturn is still very high
and competition is keen, since the
frosts have served slightly to check
building activity. Although lumber pro-
duction is over Is per cent higher than
a year ago, stocks are not ptling up,
while unified orders are high. The
combinations effected in the aviation
| industry have given a decided stimulus
not only to airplane and engine output,
but to the machine equipment trade.
| The airplane factories are retooling for
an active season in 1929. The pros
| in the nickel production line has Stimu-
| lated interest and buying by consumers,
although the main users will not begin
| buying for 1929 in real earnest for
some weeks yet. Prices are steady and
seem likely to remain so, in the opinion
Of metallurgists.
Cotton Mill Operations.
Industrial activity is pointing toward
a drop next week because of election
day. Some workers will take the entire
day of to vote, and 1t is noticeable that
! this will be done mostly in trades such
as coal and textiles, which have been
oyermanned and in which the work
ers need the work and its attendant
| pay badly.
There has been some expansion of
cotton mill operations, but condition
of normalcy has not been reached, as
is shown by the failure of the trade
| to absorb the usual amount OF chemicals
and dives. Prices for cotton goods have
been firm, and the weather has Stimu-
lated apparel sales.

BY the Associated Press.


KANSAS CITY, September 27-Sen-
.ator William E. Borah, delivering a
Hoover campaign speech in Convention
Hall here last night, said farm relief,
''the most difficult problem before the
american people" was the one great
issue of the presidential campaign and
that the prohibition issue should not
be in the campaign at all.
Despite platform declarations of the
two great parties in favor of the
eighteenth amendment and the ConSti-
tuition" he said, prohibition is in the
campaign. hurled there not by the
Democratic party but by Tammany
Hall, the one great, persistent power
lighting prohibition from the begin
ming.
Hits Corruption Issue.
"This is not fight between the Re-
publican party and the Democratic
party, but contest between law and
order, with the Constitution on one
side and Tammany Hall and its allied
influences on the other"
Referring to Gov. Smiths speech at
Helena. in which the Democratic noml-
nee aSSailed Herbert Hoover for re
manning silent about alleged "corrup-
.tion of his associates in the Republican
party" the speaker said:
Gov. Smith says Hoover didn't say
anything about Fall Are we going to
try this case on the associates of the
candidates? The governor has been
associated with Tammanv Hall for more
ithan 20 years and in that time Tam
many stole $100,000000 at least from
the people of New York.
Denies Wheat Price Charge.
"We will take Thea candidates on
their own records and not on the rec
Ords of those with whom they have been
associated. No man has more hatred
and contempt than I for those miser-
abb creatures who crawled into the
protection of the Republican party and
betrayed its honor. They represent
their defalcations themselves, however,
and the majority of the people of the
United States have recognized this"
The speaker said that records in
Washington did not sustain the charge
that Hoover fixed the price of wheat in
1917 and beat down prices of farm
products after the armistice. He said
the records proved, on the contrary,
that the candidate had nothing to do
with fixing of the price, which was
done by commission appointed by
President Wilson.
