OATS SURPRISE
TRADERS;O OPEN
STRONG IN PIT
Wheat and Corn Weaken on
Chicago Board at
Start Today.

By Jjiitcd Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-Oats upset
all expectations on the Chicago
Board of Trade today. opening
strong and slightly higher while
corn and wheat weakened. Opening
figures we're: Wheat 1s to 4 cent
lower; corn. u to % cent off; oats
unchanged to q cent higher.
Although traders we're unwilling
to attach any great Importance to
cats unexpected strength, the slight
advance was taken in many quarters
as a hint that the fundamentally
bullish oats situation is beginning to
be felt.
Wheat was in a peculiar situation
Reports of RuSsia's purchase of
100000 bushels Canadian wheat,
which prompted a large part of to-
days upturn, we're discredited by
most reliable authorities in later
dispatches. Many traders seem in
clined to turn bearish on this de
yelopment.
News in corn was beariSh. Present
high prices have killed export de-
mand. Weather over the belt turned
colder last night and high winds will
probably dry up the roads, promot-
ing the country movement.
Provisions opened practically UNI

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-Can you
imagine anything published that is
more fascinating than the story OF
General Motors? A few years ago
one would be charged with being
visionary, a mere dreamer, who
talked of a company in the motor
industry showing such results. But
we Of today must not become I'M
duly excited about this showing, be-
cause we have known about it for
quite a while, and it has been cap
italized both in the number of
shares, as we'll as in the value per
share. And this really brings us
face to face with the one big prob
lem in the market. We don't think
any of us are concerned with the
future of the country, with the flu
ture of industry, with the future of
finance, but there is cause for us to
be concerned with the condition of
today. So much that is good, SO
much of our past accomplishments
and our future prospects are already
capitalized, both in the number of
shares and in the prices that we
see quoted daily in the market. So
that what We need at this time is
such a readjustment as will place us
again on that solid base from which
we can start another big movement,
and that readjustment is now in
process.

BU JHitcd Press
NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-General
Motors, reporting the greatest earn
ings of any industrial corporation in
peace time, was the center of at
traction on the stock exchange to-
day. At the outset this issue made
up its entire dividend of $1.25 selling
at the previous closing level Of 1861
around which it held in carly deal
ingS.
United States Steel moved up =
point to 144ia ct the opening, but
later fell back to its previous close
of LA. Other steel issues were firm.
The market in general. however,
presented an irregular appearance.
Bears continued to hammer Freeport
Texas, which added nearly 2 points
TO its loss of SIS of Thursday. At
todayS low of 1874, Freeport was off
exactly So points from the years
high of 109H. American B
made new low for the year al
1895, off 9s, and Marland also
dropped to a new low for 1928.
Describing the market, the Wall
Street Journals financial review to-
day said:
Decrease in brokerage loans and
record earnings for General Motors
and Pennsylvania railroad in 1927
contributed toward creating a more
optimistic feeling in speculative and
investment circles causing a demand
Tor stocks. Opening prices showed
gains in most cases from a fraction
to more than a point"

C. M. C. MAKES
RECORD PROFITS
General Motors, PennSyI-
vania R. R. Have Big Year.
BV / RifcG Press

BIZ LRifcG press
NEW YORK, Feb, 1.-THE indus
trial wealth OF America was illus
trated strikingly today by analysis
of two earnings reports, showing
record profits in 1927 by General
Motors and the Pennsylvania rail
road
Motors, with billion-dollar turn
over during the year, made a net
profit of $235, 104, 1926, the highest in
peace time history 1t was exceeded
only when United States Steel went
over the billion mark during the
war.
During 1927 Motors cid a total
business of $1,269, 519,673. 1t sold
1.554,577 automobiles, or one for
every eighty inhabitants of the
United States. The total business
was 21l,366,335 greater than the
year before. The earnings were
equivalent to 1929 cents share
on 100000 shares OF common
stock.
If the war for supremacy" in the
automobile field should develop
into an actuality, General Motors
enters it with plenty of ammuni-
ton. In the low-priced car field,
its chief competitor is one man,
Henry Ford, the country's first bill
lionaire.
The Pennsylvania railroads net
income for the year was $68.l60,296,

In the Sugar Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon)
tons in the sugar futures market con-
tinue toward weakness March liquidation
and hedge selling have uncovered nu-
merous Sto porders. Occasional support
comes from Cuban connections. but it
leaves the market in a very unsettled con-
dition reacting upon the actual market
causing depression and heSitancy. These
conditions are incidental to the marketing
of a new crop and will right themselves in
due course. We think that this is the
time to buy the late positions.

EMSLEY W. JOHNSON.
Special Prosecutor.

AS attorneys for Governor Jack
son we filed and presented
motion for an instructed verdict
over the insistent protest Of Gov
ernor Jackson. 1t was his earnest
desire, to proceed with his defense
that the public might have the
opportunity to know the facts as
they would be diyulged by the tes-
timony of himself and many
reputable witnesses.
AS attorneys representing not
only the Governor, but his
Co-defendants who are yet
under indictment, we in
sisted to Governor Jackson
that he owed it to these
co-defendantS to terminate the
case at the earliest possible mo-
ment. When the indictment
against his co-defendants is dis
posed of Governor Jackson will
reveal to the public his evidence
and as his attorneys we have con-
f1dence that 1t VIII be such as TO
convince fair minded persons that
the charge of any wrongdoing or
criminal act on his part is wholly
without foundation and fact.
Persons desiring to know the
general scope of his defense are
respectfully referred to the open
ing statement for counsel for
Governor Jackson at the begin
ming of this trial. AS attorneys
we are prepared to say that we
have competent evidence Of repu-
table witnesses to support each
and all the facts and circum-
stances recited in that statement.
