MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES

Minneapolis, June 2.-(P)-Grain

set Thursday because Of bearish news
and an accumulation of selling ord
ers stimulated by a break Wednes-
day, but closed higher.
Export business picked up consid-
erably on the last break. The stock
market rallied sharply and helped
wheat. Weather news was very favor
able regarding spring wheat areas,
but moisture Is needed in the hard
winter wheat belt to offset the higher
temperatures developing.
There was not much interest in
coarse grain futures and news was
light concerning these grains.
July closed So higher, and Scptem-
Der IL higher. July oats closed I'M
changed and September unchanged
to 1-8 lower. July rye was 1-8 low
er and September unchanged July
barley was 1-2 higher and Septem-
Der Sd higher. The closing for July
flax was IA higher and Septem-
Der "a higher.
Tone of the cash wheat market was
quiet and steady. Offerings for local
unloading moved readily at firm
premiums. Durum wheat was in
slightly better demand and all of
firm. Winter wheat was scarce and
nominally unchanged.
Cash corn offerings were light and
In slightly better demand. Oats we're
in good demand If showing good

Barley offers were light and in fair
demand If suitable for milling. Flax
offerings were fair and demand was

the other departments and establish
ments, SO operation Of the economy act
Is understood to be not so severe as 1t
has been upon some OF the other de-
partments.
Among the questions understood to
be up for consideration will be the
clarse calling for dismissal Of married
persons in any reduction Of force where
the husband or wife is also employed by
the Government. The provision of the
law requiring approval Of the President
himself in the filling Of vacancies is
known to have come In for criticism
because OF the immense amount Of ex-
ira work and expense involved. This
section also is charged with laying un-
necessary work upon both the depart
ment and the President himself.
Another matter to be given careful
consideration by the Treasury is the
economy acts permanent reduction OF
Government vacations to IS days. For
this year vacations, as such, are abol-
ished, and Government people are
forced to take certain Legislative" and
administrative" furloughs without pay
as provided in the economy act After
this fiscal year, however, unless the Law
is changed. the previous 80 days vaca-
ton will be reduced to IS days. 1t was
explained that no decision has been
reached yet on this point. however.
Senator Jones has asked all Govern
ment departments, not only for recon-
mendations or proposed amendments to
the economy act personnel provisions,
but also for suggestions as to how fur
ther economies in governmental expen-
ditures can be effected.

CHICAGO, June 17.-This dampest
in principle. Republican National Con-
vention since prohibition. is. in fact. the
dryeSt.
That verdict can be given today after
delegates. alternateS. visiting politicians
and relatives have had their fullest op-
portunity to paint the town red The
best they could do was to have one
stray delegate caught in the hold-up OF
a Joliet road house. with not one pres
ent in Wednesday nights Wild West
gunplay in another nearby resort.
Instead probably no convention
trade or political, has in recent years
been quite so definitely a personal pro-
hibition convention as the present. II
politically moist, by a 681 to 472 vote
against calling itself wet, this Repub-
lican gathering truly has been decor
ously dry.
Liquor that did flow. much to the
chagrin of Chicago saloonkeeperS, was
consumed in hotel rooms.
The Federal men confined their &C
tivities to raids on IL downtown
saloons. The police picked up one re-
puted hoodlum. Jimmy Adduci, known
as a Capone affiliate, who had claimed
to hold the liquor concession at the
stadium. the convention meeting place
However. they got no liquor.
Politicians who attended both, claim
that there is no resemblance between
this gathering and that at Kansas City
in 1928. Then. in the dry Southwest
with the dryest party platform in pro-
hibition history, the lid was off among
delegations.
