GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, March (P)-Price bulges
failed to hold in the grain markets
today. bullish reports on farm reserves
having been largely discounted before
hand Buying of corn was on a big
scale at times but so, too, was selling
to realize profits for holders. New top
price records for the season were es-
tablished for No, and No red winter
wheat as well as oats and rye.
Closing quotations on corn were
nervous, &c to 1Bc net lower, with
wheat irregular, 1ac off to 1ac up, oats
varying from 115c decline to Bc ad-
vance and provisions unchanged to 12c
up.
In point of volume of transactions,
corn proved to bel the market leader
today and price fluctuations for that
cereal were at "a beWildering rapid
rate The unofficial domestic reports
issued today suggested farm reserves
of 1881 100000 bushels Of corn against
1,134,OOO,OO0 bushels last year. Corn
disappearance in this country during
the last four months was also esti-.
mated today at shout 1,825,000,000
bushels compared with 1,690,000,000
bushels for the spending time last
year. Argentine cables indicated 100,-
100000 bushels less yield of new corn
probable this season than actually
cleared last season.
Special notice was taken meanwhile
by many corn traders Of statement
vim one of today'S summaries that with
a single exception the present farm
reserve stock of corn is the smallest
since 1919, and considering feed quail
ity is perhaps the smallest potential
corn stock at this date in the last 25
years, barring also one exception. 1t
was contended that farm reserve fig

visible supply indicated total OF 1885,
lis, 900 bushels less than last year.
Heavy profit taking sales at the last,
however, more than offset for at least
the time being the rallying power OF
the market. Chicago deliveries today
on March corn contracts totaled $780,

ROCKEFELLER IS
NEUTRAL AS COL.
STEWART CHOSEN

\ CHICAGO, March / up - Colonel
Robert w. Stewart, charged with con-
tempt for refusal to answer questions
asked by members of the Teapot Dome
| senatorial investigating committee, was
reelected chairman of the board OF
the Standard Oil company of Indiana
today with the 1,339,920 shares of stock
controlled by John D. Rockefeller, Jr.,
voted neither for nor against him.
Mr.. Rockefeller sent letter to E. q
Seubert, president of the company, di-
recting that the stock be voted for the
reelection of all other directors, but
as to voting for Colonel Stewart, Mr..
Rockefeller wrote.
II am not prepared at this time to
vote either for or against Colonel
Stewards reelection as a member OF
the board"
For the other members of the board
e,230,275 votes were cast OF 9,23l, $40
shares of stock outstanding.
"It is not my time to talk, was
Colonel Stewards only statement, fbut
am deeply gratified that no shares
were voted against me-"
Prior to his reelection by the stock
holders to the board of directors, Col
onel Stewart read the co1npany's an
nual report, which revealed net earn
ings for 1927, $29,4O1,3O8 less than for
1926 and a dividend reduction from
the $6O3 a share in 1926 to 1925 q
share last year. s
The net, after reserve for taxes OF
$50, 49,, ,456, lacked $1,997,714 of meet
ing the years cash dividends of $32,-
13O,l7O, but a surplus of $l09,537, ,23O
was reported for 1927 as against $1O8,-
307O75 the previous year.
Colonel Stewart attributed the re-
duced net earnings to- "thei reduced
realization on sales of petroleum prod
ucts as we'll as to a loss occasioned by
the large carry-over of the petroleum
products inventory of Dev. 81, 1925, at
prices in excess of realization during
1927"
Nevertheless, the position of the
company was asserted to be "excep-
tionally strong" with reduced in
ventory offering "an effective safety
measure" and the cash and securities
reserve Of 86,879,833 the greatest in
the company's history.
Prior to the stockholders meeting,
there had been intense speculation as
to the possible trend the bitter disap-
pointnent with Colonel Stewards at
titude Mr.. Rockefeller expressed when
himself testifying before the senate
committee might take.

Washkowsky's Old Shoe

affected by husband on similar oc-
casions, "have you found for my old
shoes?" Mrs. Washkowsky told him,
expecting to be praised for her
thoughtfulness. Women but that's
another branch of education.
Mr.. Washkowsky went to the cob
bier and found his shoes, but not the
money, which we cannot but feel is
not remarkable. We hope he will find
1t, but he hasn't yet, which again
should cause no astonishment.
But what we would like to hear
from the American Bankers Associa-
ton is what steps it is taking to dis
courage people Of magpie habits from
keeping their money in stoves, shoes,
mantle clocks, behind wall pictures,
under floor boards and similar places.
We have made no exact calculation,
but from casual evidence we are in
clined to believe there are enough
funds hidden way in such places in
this enlightened and progressive coun-
try to pay off the national debt. Not
that we advise playing it off, because
that would leave congress nothing to
fuss with Mr.. Mellon about; but If de.
posted in banks our banker might
have some to lend when we need it,
which he now never has; he says
money is very scarce. We hold it is
not: 1t is merely in Mr.. Washkowsky's
shoe.
Seeing that we have been pursuing
education, or something called that,
for several centuries, we cannot but
feel this is a. bad showing and that
the bankers association is somehow
responsible. 1t hasn't sufficiently i'm.
pressed on the people that it has
banks and what they are for Mr..
Washkowsky hasn't heard. And there
are lot of him in this country
! Kansas City Star
Douglas daily dispatch., 1928-03-02

We call the attention of the Ameri-
can Bankers Association to the case
of Mr.. Washkowsky of Brooklyn. Mr..
Washkowsky is hard working and
thrifty, but like SO many of us his
education is defective; who is to
blame for that we don't know. Mr..
Washkowsky has been saving a part
of his weekly wages for a long time,
but hadn't told Mrs. Washkowsky
where he was depositing his nest egg.
That was a mistake, probably, but an
inquiry into it belongs to another
branch of education with which it is
probable the bankers association can
not be held to have any concern.
But with Mr.. Washkowsky's de.
pository it has. He chose for that
purpose an old shoe. He kept the
shoe and It's mate in his closet, and
up to the other day had tucked away
in one Of them savings amounting to
$3.50. On that same other day Mrs.
Washkowsky, rummaging Mr.. Wash
kowsky's closet like a good house
wife, seeking what she could throw
away or transfer to another place
where Mr.. Washkowsky couldn't find
1t. as Is the habit Of good housewives,
found this same pair Of old shoes. We
suppose she said to herself, Mr.. Wash
kowsky not being present to have 1t
said to him. "Isn't that just like a
man?' and acting thereupon just like
a woman she sent the shoes to the
cobbler to be repaired. 1t was either
that or the ash barrel for them, and
being frugal and Mr.. Washkowsky
paying the cobbler bills anyway, she
sent them to the cobbler.
A distraught man was Mr.. Wash
kowsky when he next went to make a
deposit in his old shoe. what new
place." he asked in that martyr tone
