GRAIN PRICES RISE
IN EARLY TRADING
Wheat Affected by Strength at
Liverpool-Corn Aided by
Weather Reports.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, February 28--Both wheat
and corn advanced early today, wheat
affected by relative strength of quota
lions at Liverpool, and corn by unfavor-
able weather for the crop movement
Reports at hand indicated damage to
Winter wheat in France. Opening Il
to "a higher, Chicago wheat afterward
held near to the initial figures. Corn
started unchanged to a up. and subse-
quently scored a rise all around. Oats
were firmer Provisions likewise tended
higher
Friends of higher prices for wheat
derived considerable advantage at times
today because of the fact that the Liv-
erpool market. instead of showing a
pronounced setback, in line with yes
terday's action of values here. made
only moderate downturn, closing but
4 to x pence off. 1t was exclaimed the
Liverpool trade expected warmer wealth
er would improve the demand from va
rious countries of continental Europe
There were also references to an unfa-
vorable outlook for new crops in Eu-
rope, especially France, where 1t was in
dictated wheat might have suffered in
sections which ordinarily produce high
yields.
Domestic wheat outlook advices today
were summarized in some quarters as
being generally of a character to mini
mize crop scare talk. but it was added
that many observers we're looking for
bad reports after there has been little
growing weather. 1t was also pointed
out that as compared with May delivery
cash wheat in Kansas City was selling
at about the largest discount ever known
for this time of year.

INCREASE IN SUGAR
USERS IS SOUGHT
New Orleans Merchant 0p.
poses Reduction in Out
put of Commodity.
BY J. c. ROYLE.
Special Dispatch to The Star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 28.-Reduc-
ton Of sugar production for a number
Of years has been the main suggestion
for remedying of the ills of the sugar
producing business. Today, at least one
big producer has reversed that policy
and is seeking a solution, not in the
curtailment of production, but in the
increase in consumption.
In the near future Walter Godchcaux
OF New Orleans, vice president and ag-
ricultural manager of big producing
company. will go half around the world
to Java to tell the meeting of the Inter-
national Society of Sugar Cane Tech
nicians that check to production by
artificial means. either governmental or
industrial. is mistake.
I'm Asia and the other parts of the
Orient" he asserts, there is potential
market which would absorb almost dou-
BILE the amount of the present output.
1t has hardly been touched. There is
a potential army of consumers in that
part of the world totaling nearly $780,
100000 persons to many of whom sugar
is almost unknown. The per capita
consumption is about or 6 pounds a
year. This compares with roughly lis
pounds per capita consumption in the
United States"
Mr. Godcheaux declares a campaign
OF education to raise the Eastern con-
sumption would be long and expensive,
but asserts its results would justify the
cost. He points out that Java is really
the only country now producing sugar
at profit at present prices. He will
study conditions there as we'll as in
Hawaii, the Philippines and Australia.
Some solution to the problem of rails
ing sugar at a profit seems absolutely
essential. Estimates of world produc-
ton have been raised in the last six
weeks. Cuban mills have been produce
ing at record rate since they started
grinding without restriction on Jam
uary l..
Visible stocks are nearly as large as
at any time of record. Consumption
has increased slightly since the end of
1928. both here and abroad, and it is
likely demand will be stimulated by low
prices. But the increase in output has
far outrun the gain in demand. The

In check on the curb exchange today.
However. before these developments &C.
CURED the market had registered srb-
Stantial gains in tn issues selected for

Prominent among the favor!tes were
some of the utilities, airplane stocks and
host of industrial specialtieS.
High-grade holding companies stood
out among the utilities notably Elec-

Super Power class "A" advanced almost
points before the demand subsidized

American and Foreign Power warrants.

nounced weakness developed.
Expansion of operations In the air.
craft industry was reflected in the in
creased favor in which this class OF
stocks Is looked upon. while rumors OF
impending mergers served to fire specu-
lative Imagination. Aviation Corpora
ton of America was bid up 5 points to
q new high record. Sikorsky Aviation
was in urgent demand. Above 50 it was
also at a new high record.
The oils again lacked the necessary
incentive in outside developments to
work for higher prices, and changes in
this quarter were inconsequential.
The mining stocks were influenced
sympathetically by the strength of the
ronners IN the St0ck EXCHANGE Now
mont Mining moved upward more than
points. New Cornelia Copper made a
new top. influenced by reports that it
was to figure prominently in a merger
with Calumet and Arizona, and the
low priced Iron Cap. WHICH has been

high.
Prominent among the specially favor
ties were Gold Seal Electric Newton
Steel, Haygart and Auburn Auto, all Of
which reached their best prices.

Save the Ruins of Baalbek.

There are many features of great in
terest to the Psychologists in the ruins
of Baalbek, colossal remains standing
in the midst OF desert fun OF associa-
tons Of Biblical times The interesting
constructions OF stone are threatened
with destruction unless something is
done at once TO save them. There are
enormous stones which must have been
dragged from quarries located at a
great distance. It Is hard to conceive
where the power was taken from to
move such colossal masses. An English
engineer, known for his daring and sue
cessful excavations, is said TO have fig
urcd out that it must have taken the
combined strength OF 5000 slaves to
lift the blocks out of the quarry bed.
The largest block Of all reposes in the
quarry. and has the appearance OF the
abandonment OF the work OF removal,
as II the workmen had realized that
they had undertaken too much. An
other stone of similar size was found
in the quarry only partially cut. And
all the gigantic structures as typitled In
Baalbek are said to have been built by
Cain, whose son. Henokh. lived there
with a giant race up to the time OF
the food.

Values Ease Of in
Hedging.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 2S.-Cotton
opened steady today at an advance Of 6
points to a decline OF 2 points. Most
months were higher on overnight buy
ing orders, with May selling up to 20.62,
or into new high ground for the move
ment.
A disposition to take profits on recent
purchases was increased by relatively
easy Liverpool cables, however. There
was also Southern hedging, and prices
eased off few points after the initial
buying had been supplied.
May reacted to 2056, or within a
point of yesterdays closing quotation,
but there was further trade buying or
covering in near months. Commission
house buying Of new crop positions was
promoted by reports of further rains in
the Atlantic. The market held fairly
steady at the end of the first half hour.
