Although the little fellow was being taken out of the 'iron lung" every two hours several days ago and allowed to breathe natur- ally for half an hour or SO, his condition slipped a trifle and it was thought that 1t would be much bet ter if he were not taken out.
 Even though more than a score of cases are still active, improve ment is being noted in all of them so that physicians are very optim- istic that the epidemic is unndoubt- edly ended. A cold snap will hurry the stopping of the disease, it was said.

USE OF GOLD HERE
CHRISTMAS GAINS
Treasury Figures Show $3.50, 900
Yellow Coins Issued, Against
$350,000 Year Ago.

WaShingtonianS used more gold for
Christmas this season than ever before
according to figures at the Treasury
Department.
The record for 1880 exceeded that of
1929 by more than 100000, according
to the Treasury. This Christmas the
Treasury paid out to Washington banks
during December $450,000 in gold
coins. as compared to only about $780,
900 in 1929.
Most of the gold pieces are reported
returning to the banks.
The little two-and-a-half-d dollar piece
which has been stopped by act Of
Congress, and which is no longer is
sued by the Treasury Department, con-
tinued, nevertheless, this season to be
popular. Banks, officials say, are not
turning in many of these coins to the
Treasury where they could be melted
and turned into bullion. So long as
they remain in circulation, however,
they are of course good as gold"

GRAINS EXHIBIT
WEAK TONE IN
LIGHT TRADING
Chicago Futures Fail to
Follow Upturn at
Liverpool.
BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE
United Press STAFF Correspondent

CHICAGO, Sept. 21.-A strong
rally at midsession stopped the
rapid decline of wheat, but failed to
recover all losses incurred during
the forenoon. The action of the
stock market, in which losses were
followed by recoveries in the major
stocks, was reflected on the Board
of Trade.
The recovery Of wheat after new
seasonal lows had been made, was
in the fractions, and the major
grain closed with fractional losses.
Corn followed wheat in sympathic
decline with higher losses, but oats
closed up in the fractions.
Close Is Lower
At the close wheat was ss to q
cent lower; corn was Il to rs cents
lower. and oats were Is to Is cent
up. Provisions were unchanged to
3 points higher, while bellies showed
losses of Is to Is points.
Liverpool retained its strength
throughout the session to close with
gains Of 3 to Az cents higher. The
session on the Chicago Board of
Trade was characterized by rapid
fluctuations, described by one trader
as 1.-THE most rapid since war times"
The selling and buying showed the
nervousness over the change from
the gold standard in England.
New Lows Are Set
At midseSsion the markets I'M
dertone became stronger on the
bulliSh news from Liverpool. but
March and May wheat set a new
low for the season. Receipts were
63 cars. Cash prices were un-
changed.
Corn broke badly after the open
ing and established new lows for
both crops for the season. Later the
market recovered all its losses but
became very dull with a recession
OF trading. Cash prices were Il
higher and receipts were 1856 cars.
Oats followed the other grains
with nervousness here also appar-
ent, and traders paying attention
to nothing except the financial
news. Cash was unchanged. Re-
ceiptS were rs cars.

STATE CROP OF
CORN FORECAST
ABOVE AVERAGE
Gain of ! Per Cent in Con-
dition Made During
August.

BIZ Times Special
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Sept. 81
Despite the generally heavy rain
fall in Indiana during August, the
corn crop is reported as only PER
cent better than month ago, in a
statement issued by the department
of agricultural statistics of the Pur-
due university agricultural expert
ment station and the United States
department of agriculture. Pros
poets now are for a yield of 49,
723 900 bushels, which is z per cent
above the ten-year average. Com
plant has been registered because
of the large number of barren
stalks, due, it is believed, to the ex-
tremely hot weather of early
August.
The oats yield dropped sharply
across the northern third of the
state, threshing reports indicated.
although conditions elsewhere in
Indiana were good enough to pro-
duce 1922 900 bushels. which is l
per cent larger than the ten-year
average. Barley is reported slightly
better than a month ago.
Potatoes suffered from heat and
drought in early August and the
early part of the crop was too far
advanced to benefit from the
August rains, although showers
aided the late crop considerably.
Sweet potatoes showed no change
from the previous month.
Making OF soybean llay was we'll
underway when the reports began
to come in, Sept. l. Glover seed is
reported about average, and timothy
better than the average of the past
four years. With clover and grass
hay yielding slightly below what
was predicted a few months ago
and Soybean hay going above early
indications. the hay crop in the
state is about normal, according to
present indications.

Sharp RecOveries Made

Sharp recoverieS occurred in such
industrial and utility favorites as
American Can, General Electric,
Consolidated Gas, Westinghouse
Electric, American Telephone and
J. I. Case.
Only few issues, which felt fur
Their liquidating pressure, failed to
participate in the upswing, al
though enjoying good-sized recov-
cries from Their lows. These includ-
ed Woolworth, Radio-Keith and
General Motors.
Turnover was at an exceedingly
rapid pace, reaching the highest
levels in nearly eighteen months.
Activity to 1:30 p. m. appropriated
100000 shares, indicating that the
turnover for the entire session
would exceed five million shares.
Notwithstanding the unusual activ-
ity, tickers at no time fell more
than five minutes behind actual
trading on the floor.
Sale Volume Dips
Activity dwindled somewhat
around mid-afternoon, but the mar
ket showed no indications of hav-
ing exhausted it's upturn. Most of
the leaders held at or near their
higheS of the session.
When activity in the industrials
and utilities quoted, the railroad
shares were quickly brought for
ward, several scoring sensational
advances. Pennsylvania, after SELL
ing at 80 in the morning, rose to SO
and theen to SO on a single sale of
5000 shares. At one time 10000
shares of the stock were wanted
with no offerings.
Trading in such issues as New
York Central Atchison, Union Pa
cific and Rock Island indicated the
panicky feeling on the part of
shorts. who were deprived of an OPP
portunity to fight back by the Stock
Exchange ban on new short selling.
A weak situation in the rails was
Kansas City Southern, which
opened $4,000 shares at 81, loss
of Us points. 1t later recovered
