The I-told-you-so sewing circle
feeling that false statements told in
meetings are not for the best inter-
ests of the town have decided to first
be sure of the truth and then GO
ahead. They all are Of the. opinion
that lot of trouble has been caused
by idle roomers.

Since the first of the year Scoop has
been taking inventory (of himself),
and therefore hasn't had time to take
much of an inventory of other peo-
pie, enough to fill the column. There
were lot of empty shelves that had
to be gone over, and others were
overstocked.
The only annoying thing about do
ing a column is that the people who
knock you invariably have darn
good reason to.

FUTURES SELL
UP ON STRONG
FOREIGN NEWS
Evening-Up for HOLIDAYS
Holds Trade to Dull
Range.
BY HAROLD E. RAINVHLE
United Press stan Correspondent

CHICAGO. Dec. 24.-wheat re-
flected the strong tone at Liverpool
at the opening today and rose a
minor fraction on the Board of
Trade. The easiness in stocks
failed to affect the market to anv
extent at the start, although De-
cember was easy on evening-up
selling with only three more days
of trading left.
Liverpool gained strength from
the decreasing stocks. Corn and
oats had very slow start and were
mostly unchanged, although there
was some selling in December corn.
AT the opening wheat was 4 cent
lower to 4 cent higher, corn was I'M
changed to Is cent lower and oats
was unchanged. Provisions were
slow and steady.
Liverpool Closes Higher
Liverpool closed slightly higher
than expected, unchanged to q
pence up or Il to S cent higher.
Traders expected today's market
to be largely evening-up for the
three holidays with the session quiet
unless some outstanding news
should be received.
Prices are working toward an ex-
port level but Canadian grain still
is underselling the American ar
ticle. All world markets will be
closed Friday and Saturday except
the Chicago butter and egg market
which will be open on Saturday.
Corn Report Bullish
The government report FRIDAY
showing an increase of $500 900 pigs
on country farms was a highly bull
iSh development for the corn mar
ket although seemingly ignored due
to the holiday dullness. Country
offerings have increased somewhat
recently with the warm weather
lessening the feeding on farms.
Oats trade is mostly of local
character with the trend following
the action of the other grains in
a. dull market.

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-Cotton
opened steady and practically I'M
changed from the previous close.
Trading was light throughout the
morning session and in a narrow
range. Mostly January liquidation,
as Thursday is the first notice day
for that month. The situation re-
mains unchanged and the trade
continues to buy cotton every point
decline.
We advise this same policy as we
look for better market after the

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Gold min
ing shares provided the feature in
anotherwise drab stock market to-
day. These issues were active and
strong and the list generally firmed
up to small gains from an earlier
decline.
Alaska Juneau provided the larg-
est sale Of the first two hours-1O,-
600 shares at 1875. Later it rose to
132s, up Ia points. Homestake
mining jumped points to 1913.
Seaboard Air Line came out in
large blocks also, but at very
small price 1t sold at 1s, off Is or
so per cent from the previous close.
One block was of 10000 shares and
another 5000 shares.
Rail Shares Firm
Other railroad shares we're firm
with the general market, New York
Central rising point to 1914.
During the first half hour, the
combined sales of United States
Steel and American Can amounted
to only 10000 shares. Reynolds To-
bacco was relatively active in this
period with a turnover of $500
shares.
United States Steel featured the
rally in the industrial division.
Around noon, it was at 1914, up 11s
points net, while gains of fractions
to a point were made by General
Electric, American Can, Case, Allied
Chemical, Woolworth and Dupont.
Bonds Irregular
American Telephone rallied in
the utility division and prices held
small gains as the market turned
into the third hour. Coppers and
oils ruled with prices steady Little
interest developed in any section of
the list and in the early afternoon
the tickers we're tagging along,
stopping for long intervals.
The bond market turned irregu-
lar for a time in the morning, but
when United States government
issues rallied, the whole list pre-
scented a f1rmer tone a feature in
bringing the rally in the share
market.
