WHAT THE MORATORTUM VI
MEANS
Continued Prem Page OneD


 aIuhou-h n nat period the total reduction n re national debt has been more than nine billions.
 Broadly speaking, deh payments have equaled less than 6 third of total national iebt redurtions.
 If debt payments are waived for | year, il vii, remain for congress and the treasury to determine policy as to national deht reduc- tons.
 They also could be deferred for a year. ill which event waiver Of debt payments would have no i'm mediate dire effect on taxpayers.
 Indirect effects of the situation n Germany and the possible re percu ~sionS on the economic situ- ation at home are far more inn portant. and not subject to any definite computation.
 It has been pointed out, for in stance, that private loans made to German states and municipalities and to German .1,,,> nd busi- ness by foreigners iepfesaGt some five billion dollars, of which pos sibly half came from this country.
 Those bonds or other securities now are held by American inves- tors. having been marketed by the banking groups that carried thru the transactions.
 The interest income from these securities plays it's part in Ameri- can purchasine power at home. Any political upheaval in Germany that upset those interest pay ments would have direct effect on business conditions in the United States.
 Would Destroy VI Customer
 Similarly such developments in Germany would, for time at least, destroy Germany's power tc buy in the American market. She is chiefly a customer for Amer,, can farm products and other raw materials.
 Added to the possibilities of { collapse of the German govern. ment would be the effect on Am. erican overseas trade. due tt steps which might be taken by countries surrounding Germany tt meet the situation.
 What those might be, or how they might further limit or dis organize existing American over seas markets, already at low ebl in consuming powe", is merely matter of speculation.
 Added disruption of trade how ever, would almost certainly. il the beginning at least. be re hected by more unemployment il this country.

SECURITIES BREAKS
RESULT IN DECLINE
in PRICE OF GRAIN
Trade, However, Regards
Wheat as Doing Well in
View Of Pressure

Chicago. Dec. H.-R-Affected
anew BY breaks In securities. the grain
markets averaged lower Saturday. The
trade, however, generally regarded
wheat as having given an excellent
account OF itself under the circum-
stances. A moderate export business
in North American wheat was noted.
Wheat closed irregular, y cent low
er to b-h higher. compared with yes
terday's finish, May 56A-&, July
55A-S. Corn A-a down, May 39A-
Is. July ass. Oats unchanged to 4
up, and provisions unchanged to S
cents down.
Opening 3-3 to l cent lower, wheat
afterward sagged together. Corn
started 3-8 to ga off and sub
s%equently held near the initial range.
Unsettlement of the wheat market
received additional emphasis owing to
further notice taken Of British gov
eminent plans for a quota system OF
imports and because Of figures show
ing that the United States, since July
|. has fallen short 10000, 900 bushels
In wheat exports compared with a
year ago. The showing as to meager-
ness of United States wheat exports
was notwithstanding that the total
last year had been unusually small.
A leading trade authority commended.
however. that whether United States
exports would weaken their prices de-
pended largely ON domestic crop pros
poets which at present were not good.
Rallies in wheat values took place
after the market Mad fallen about II.
cents. The recovery. which at one
stage amounted to about q cent was
simultaneous with reports of heavy
rains in Argentina. The rains were
to be delaying wheat harvest OPP

to the quality Of the crop. Corn and
oats averaged lower with wheat.
Provisions were neglected.

SHORTS COVER AND
MARKET RISES IN
LAST FEW Minutes
Session on Wall Street Is Fair.
ly Active in Brief Satur-
day Session

New York, Dec. 12.-P-The stock
market was boosted by short covering
in the last few minutes of trading
Saturday after sinking further into
new low ground.
Losses Of l to 2 points were can
celled or reduced in the final upturn
and several issues closed with gains
OF fractions to a point. The closing
tone was steady. The market was
fairly active, transfers approximating
100000 shares for the two-hour SEES
sion.
Further weakness of bonds and fair
ly wide breaks in several preferred
shares had a depressing effect upon
the general equity list, before the COW
ering movement began.
Rails, on the whole, attracted con-
siderable buying, as the attitude of
the union leaders in selecting a ON
mittee to confer further with execu-
tives was regarded as distinctly con-
ciliatory, although the prospects of an
early agreement on wages was regard
ed as dim.
Selling of U. S. Steel was a major
factor in the general slump in shares
during the middle Of the session. This
issue dropped to 43, and closed at a.,
off IA. Bethlehem regained a l.
point loss, and American Telephone
converted a one-point loss into a gain.
The fall of the Japanese cabinet
and the prospect of a new govern
ment committed to initiation was not
regarded in Wall Street as seriously
disturbing.
Net changes in most of the pivotal
stocks were inconsequential. Losses
Of a point or two appeared in Allied
Chemical. Santa Fe, u. S. Industrial
Alcohol, and Johns Manvillc. New
York Central. Union Pacific. Eastman
and Loews each gained about a point.
The weekend trade and business
surveys pointed to more active Christ
mas buying. but increasing quiet in
industry, in keeping with the year.
end trend.

MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES
MARKET BREAKS: RALLIES

Minneapolis, Dec. 12.-tP)-Wheat
fumbled at the opening Saturday and
lost a lot of ground but eventually
ran into support.
Final figures for the day were
slightly above and below yesterdays
closing level. December wheat flu
lures closed la lower, May 3-8 loves
and July unchanged.
Chief trading interest was in wheat
while coarse grain futures received
little attention.
Tone Of the cash wheat market was
slow and easy. Offerings seemed to
be increasing and demand was indif-
ferent because of the high prices
prevailing here as compared with
southwestern markets.
Winter wheat was slow and un-
changed and durum demand slow ex-
cept for choice amber and mixed.
Corn demand was quiet to fair. Oats
demand was quiet to slow. Rye de-
mand was quiet to fair. Barley de-
mand was steady and prices firm.
Flax demand was not as good and
average of bids vas weaker compared
with futures.

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN REVIEW

Minneapolis. Dec. 12.-(P)-(U. S. D
A.)-Wheat fluctuated irregularly and
continued to show an unsettled to cas-
Ter tone during the week ending Sat-
urday.
The market showed good resistance
on the extreme breaks, however, and
it took only moderate buying power at
such times to absorb limited Offer
ings.
Cash wheat receipts remained light.
although mill demand was slower. At
the close Of the week IL protein No. l
dark northern sold at the December
price to 3 cents over; Is protein. 2 to
4 cents v December wheat declin-
ed as cents closing at 68hc.
Dururn held relatively more steady
than bread wheats. Ordinary Nos. l
and 2 amber sold at 3 cents under to
2 cents over the December Duluth
price, while choice milling lots went
at 10 cents to "a cents over.
Rye showed an independently weak
tone until toward the close Of the
week, when export news firmed the
market somewhat. May declined 3h
cents closing at 41asc. Spot No. 2 was
quoted at 1875 cents to ASS.
Oats declined another cent. Trade
held narrow. Demand for moderate
cash receipts averaged slow. Decem-
Der declined l lac, closing at "a 3-4c
while No. 3 white and spot was quo
table at 25A to 26Ac.
Barley also declined about l cent.
December was off IA cents, closing
at 38c.
Flax was under moderate selling
pressure because of the weakness in
other grains. With crusher support
not active, the market readily decin-
ed 4Ac, closing at $1.37.
