Estimates Of Drop in Canadian

CHICAGO, june 2s-Infiuenced by
estimates that Canada would harvest

ports of notable absence Of rain today

At noon wheat was 2a to 2Is net
higher, and corn 70 to ia up.
Quick response today by the wheat
market here was made to crop report:
from the Canadian growers pool, indi.
eating that the 1929 Spring wheat
yield In Canada would total only about
15,000,0 900 bushels, compared with 508,-
100000 In 1923. The big falling of
thus forecast was rendered more ex-
traordinary by the fact that estimates
made allowance for an assumed In
crease of 10 per cent In the 1929 planted
acreage Of each Of the three prairie
provinces.
According to the figures of the Ca
madam growers pool, Alberta province
will raise but 86,400,000 bushels oi

BUSINESS is ACTIVE
AS HALF YEAR ENDS
Pace Is Somewhat Faster Than
Usual-Most Lines Re-
port Gains.
BY J. C. RoYLE.

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, June Robustness this
week went into its final squirt before
the end of the fiscal year and the
coming of the independence day holi-
day. Even so, activity was noticeably
down in some few lines, as was per-
fectly natural. They were making
"clean-ups" preparatory to fiscal year
reports and plant repairs and condi-
tioning.
In general, however, the pace was far
faster than is usually the case at this
time Of year and compared more than
favorably with the corresponding period
of 1928.
Steel mills in Pennsylvania, Ohio
especially in the Mahoning Valley, and
in Indiana and Illinois maintain the
same heavy operations. There is q re-
markable activity manifested in iron
mining in the Northern ranges. Once
navigation opened, and it opened early,
the ore piles at the head of the lakes
were soon diminished; but now the
dumps are filling again.
Little change has been shown In the
last few days In the automobile situa-
ton. The largest individual producers
seem to have struck pace which can
be maintained.
Building contracts are on q steady
basis, but actual work Is awaiting the
passing Of the Fourth Of July holiday
before starting some projects in earnest.

RICHMOND, Va, June 28.-G. Wal
ter Mapp, candidate for the Democratic
nomination for Governor of Virginia,
last night urged anti-Smfth Democrats
to carry out State reforms they advo-
Gated from within the party whose
principles they tndorsed rather than
through coalition with Republicans.
Addressing himself primarily to anti
Smith Democrats in his first campaign
speech in Virginias capital city, Mr..
Mapp said the fight In Virginia this

adding that II the anti-Smith conven-
tion held at Roanoke had desired to
compliment him by indorsing his plat
form, it could not have more clearly
done 50 than in the platform adopted.
Opposed TO Smith.
Mr.. Mapp said he was opposed to the
nomination Of Gov. Alfred e. Smith as
the Democratic presidential candidate
in 1928, and that, while he stayed with
the party, he had never had any criti-
clsm Of those who refused to support
the national ticket.
Practically all Virginia Democrats, {"
ne said, ARE agreed that the selection
of Mr.. Raskob, an alleged Republican,
as national chairman was a serious
party mistake and that his deterrnina-
ton to retain for the present that po-
Sltlon Is, from party standpoint, un-
wise and unfortunate"
Reiterating his opposition to the
short ballot" Mr.. Mapp declared that
Robert Angel, chairman of the Vir-
ginia Republican organization, had
been member Of the committee that
advocated this move and declared the
approval Of the amendment was OBJ
talned through an overwhelming vote
from Republican strongholds that more
than overbalanced the opposition in the
Democratic sections Of the State.
Praises Administration.
He praised the Byrd administration
for many beneficial reforms in State
government and called attention to
State progress made under past Demo-
cratic governors. Turning to the uues-
ton Of race relations, Mr. Mapp said
Under Democratic administration the
State and its people have steadily pros
pered; its two races have lived together
peacefully and happily, each helpful to
the other, each respecting the rights
and liberties Of the other.
Social equality would be helpful to
neither race and harmful to both. left
alone without disturbing incidents, the
Democracy Of the South will finally
