REVISION Of GRAIN
STANDARDS URGED
Federal Bureau Proposes
Change After Long Study
by Experts.
BY the Associated Press.

by tnt ASSOClateO EresS
Revision of Federal grain standards
was proposed yesterday by the Bureau
of Agricultural Economics. whose ex-
perts have made an intensive study of
administration of the standards act.
The proposals relate to wheat. rye,
corn. oats. feed oats. mixed feed oats,
barley and grain sorghums. They also
suggest establishment of new standards
for mailing barley and mixed grain.
The grades form the basis for trade
in grains and those now in effect have
been subject to alternate criticism and
approval for some years past. Most of
the changes, the bureau believes. would
have the effect of increasing advantages
to farmers in marketing.
Plans Fewer Glasses.
In the case of corn, the bureau pro-
posed to reduce the number of grades
from seven to six: to have musty and
sour grains of all kinds placed in the
so-called sample grade" to simplify
the classification of grain sorghums: to
eliminate general appearance as a
numerical grade~determining factor In
oats. barley and grain sorghums and
to substitute for it special grades.
Restrictions would be placed on the
mixing into wheat of such grains as
red durum. corn and grain sorghums,
while test weight as a numerical grade
determining factor would be eliminated
in West Coast barly and exact test
weight would be substituted as part
of the complete grade designation.
Special Grades Favored.
Moisture as u numerical grade
determining factor in all kinds of grain
except corn and grain sorghums would
be eliminated and special grades for
tough grain substituted.
Notation on grain inspection certifi-
Gates of moisture content of all lots
of what and corn would be required.
The bureau said 1t had adopted basis
of revision that retains largely the
structure of the present official stand
ards with which the grain industry Is
familiar.
It suggested a four months study of
its proposals by the trade before final
action.

WITH Strong TONE
TRANSACTIONS ON THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE S|O0
Market Reverses Itself After
Break in First Hour.
Metals Lead.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

NEW YORK, September 30-Stocks
closed strong today in a market which
reversed its trend with spectacular
abruptness
Prices broke sharply In the first hour.
with new lows on the movement and
heavy pressure against American Tele-
phone. United States Steel and other
industrial leaders. Rails were also very
weak. Then after the selling had been
absorbed. a pause came, followed by a
recovery as decided as the previous
decline.
Metals Take Lead.
The metal shares were the undis.
puted leaders on the comeback. Gold
stocks were very strong, with a 10
point jump in Homestake. Telephone
recovered to show gain on the day
and that was also true of steel Gel.
anese was the feature in the textile
group, up 2 to 3 points. American
Smelling advanced rapidly and United
States Smelling at 500 a share was
up over 8 8'points. The rest of the mar
ket participated in the rally and the
close was around the best of the day.
That the early reaction today, as well
short selling was abundantly demon
strated by the swiftness of the recov-
cry. Commitments for the decline we're
hastily retired when it was found that
no important liquidation was coming
out
A report for which there was no
confirmation, but which was widely
broadcast was that the President would
clarity his currency policy in a state
ment tomorrow afternoon. That story
had been published in the morning pa
pers, but the stock markets first reac-
ton was unfavorable because the report
was coupled with the assertion that
action would be forced by the diff
program.
Held Constructive.
AS matter of fact, the clearing
away of doubts as to just what is to
be done about deyaluing the dollar
would be highly constructive. no mat
ter how distasteful devaluation might
be of itself Anything is better than
continuous uncertainty
The market looked very weak in the
first hour, when the bulk of the selling
was accomplished. Undoubtedly floor
traders made the mistake of thinking
that wide-open break was impending
At any rate, they discovered their error
before the close and did what they
could to atone for it, although probably
at some pecuniary loss
When the list was weakest the favor
ite targets were Telephone. Steel, Ma
tional Distillers and Union Pacific Tel
ephone made a new low on the move
ment on the story that new taxation
directed against the company was to be
imposed by the City of New York. Dis
tillers broke to points for no very
good reason Union Pacific dropped 2
points and so on. On the recovery Tel
ephone closed higher on the day and
the other stocks made up most of their
losses
The exchanges f1uctuated rervously.
but within a narrow range. At the start
the dollar was little stronger. then it
weakened and finally it rallied again.
Evidently the foreign speculative cote
rie was uneb Bile to make up its mind as
to the immediate outlook.
Commodities were irregular. Wheat
sold off and then recovered. but the
changes we're slight either way.

the child Is that might is right.
Let children have their own toys and
keep them until they will give them up
voluntarily for others to enjoy. Make
them feel comfortably certain that they
will not be deprived Of their toys until
they are willing to relinquish them.
During that selfish period, provide
other toys for small visitors. See that
these are as much the visitors as the
home toys are the childs. The child
learns very quickly that If he is to
enjoy the de lights of the visitors toys,
he has to be generous with his own.
Upon that basis unselfishness springs
