CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-Strength in
corn, induced by light receipts and
expected warm weather, was the

session on the Chicago Board of
Trade. Wheat and oats were about
steady in quiet markets.
Wheat was slow all day, mid
session losses evening up the slight
bulge Of the opening.
Corn was weak at the opening, but
early rallies and slight bulges
during the day Melted fractional
gains that we're holding well late in
the session. RECEIPTS were IN
expectedly light at principal points,
and buying was stimulated.
There we're no features, no news,
and small price changes in the oats
market.
Grain futures closed generally
higher, wheat and oats following
the steady upturn in corn. Con-
tinued reports and forecasts of
warm weather over the belt kept
corn in the lead. Closing figures
were: Wheat, 4 to Z cent higher;
corn Is cent higher; oats rm-
changed to * cent up.
Provisions closed higher.

The Independent Order OF B'nai

version of the life of Christ, which
revives old prejudiceS, and that it is
historically incorrect from the
standpoint of tho Jew.
Nationwide protest over the
movie version Of the crucifixion OF
Christ will result in a complete re-
vision of the film, it was learned to-

Cecil B. De Mile, director and

said, is planning a special prologue

NEW YORK, Jan. e.-The cotton market
advanced 20 points this morning in an
easy manner with no particular feature
other than occasional purchases for

are disposed to take a bearish position on
the market because Of the cold wave and
possible abatement of the weevil nuisance,
we think insufficient attention is being
paid TO a situation which may exert q
major influence on the new. crop, namely
the marked deficiency in subsoil moisture
over the Northwestern part of Texas. Here
is country that in recent years has been
