because Chevrolet has the advantage of being the worlds

Chevrolet builds cars in greater voume-buys materials

CHICAGO, July IA. Grains
opened unevenly on the Board of
Trade today bat held close to the
previous close. Weakness at Liver
pool was partially offset by persist
ent strength in stocks. July weak
ened but December was stronger.
There were scattered sales and
bids but activity was light. Pres
sure was held in check by the clear
and hot weather over the spring
wheat belt which remained a threat
to the crop. Corn was uneven with
wheat but oats was easy and rye
dull
At the opening wheat was Is to
q cent higher, corn was Is cent
lower to X cent higher, oats Is to
= cent lower and rye unchanged.
Provisions were steady.
Liverpool started about steady but
weakened on the bearish aspects
of the Canadian crop report and
was s cent lower at midafternoon.
Spring wheat was off to a wonderful
start and at the peak of condition.
Prices for American corn are close
to an export level and the trade
continues to hope for liberal export
sales. The short interest in July
has been greatly reduced. Crop
prospects remain favorable but tenn
peratures are high.
Oats firmed up somewhat with
the other grains. The market re-
ceiveq more support than has been
in evidence for several days, when
corn turned up. There is some ap-
prehenSion over unharveSted oats
owing to the heat.

THe good old days were being
Il recalled today by rats who
have made their homes in the vi
cinity of Indiana avenue and
Tenth street-at least they are
being recalled by the rats that
still exist.
Once upon time, back in the
good old days" the rats have
been told by their ancestors, there
was a man known as the Pied
Piper of Hamlin, who rid a fairy
book land of rats.
He accomplished the process
pleasantly by playing sweet music
on his pipes, and leading the en-
chanted rodents to the ocean,
where they were drowned.
Now, a modern version Of the
incident is being enacted by mem
bers of the Montcalm Civic
League, led by Pied Piper Hal M.
Farr.
However, the musical pies have
been replaced by rubber hose,
and the music by the staccato
bark of truck motor from which
carbin monoxide fumes are di-
rected into haunts of the rodents.
While the modern method is
less romantic, the Montcalm Pied
Pipers are determined to continue
their piping of fumes until the
rats become extinct or leave the
vicinity.

ATLANTIC CITY, July 14-The
American Federation Of Labor has
declared war on racketeering within
its ranks, warning that any interna-
tional union will face suspension, if
if fails to purge itself of law-break-
ers.
William Green, president of the
federation, made the declaration
against rackets after conducting a
hearing on charges against Samuel
Kaplan, president of the Motion
Picture Operators Union in New
York, whose operations have been
attacked in court by members of
the union.
1t has been charged that he
manipulated to fix his salary at an
unreasonable figure, and accepted
donations from theatrical and pro-
duction companies.

looking with longing eyes at Piiny
