insult IS PLANNING.
TO CO TO ENGLAND.
No Extradition Action Will Be
Taken Until He Leaves
Greece.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ATHENS, Greece, December 10
Samuel insult, dethroned American
utilities czar, plans to go to England
when his police residence permit in this
country expires January 81, it was re-
ported here today.
Local British authorities. informed of
no visa would be granted him until
instructions were received from London.
The 74-year-old fugitive has been
remaining in bed most of the time
since he was informed he would have
to leave Greece.
Permit Extended.
Originally he was told his departure
would be expected when his permit
would regularly have expired, Decem-
ber 81. On his formal application an
extension was granted to January 81.
Greek courts twice have refused to
permit the former Chicagoan'S extradi-
ton to the United States to face en-
bezzlement charges based on the col
lapse of his far-fiung utilities empire.
At the time he was granted an ex-
tension insult was told his passport
would be visaed to any country he chose
to visit upon leaving Greece. His pass
port, however, has been revoked by the
United States and it was nointed out
he would have to travel on temporary
papers.
Negotiating Passport.
Nevertheless, insult was understood
today to be negotiating in regard to
his passport.
(At London Reuters (British) News
Agency dispatch from Athens said the
United States Minister at Athens already
had received instructions to reinstate
insults passport if the Greek govern
ment requested it,
insult was indicted while he was in
Paris in the Autumn of 1882. He fed
to italy and went later to Athens as
American agents sought his arrest and
return.
Estate Department officials in Wash
ington indicated last week that no fur
ther attempts to obtain insults extradi-
ton would be made until he leaves
Greece)

To Spur Business
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. December 2.-The
swivel-chair sales managers days are
over, according to T. Russ HILL vice
president of the Air-Way Electrical Ap-
pliance Corporation, who has travelled
more than 100000 miles by airplane
this year, made sale meetings daily for
three and four weeks at a stretch, and
written at least one personal letter this
year to every one of the 1000 sales
men in his far-1ung organization.
I'VE sold more machines in October
than in any month since 1880, though
every month this year exceeded that of
year ago, and this also will hold true
of November" Mr.. Hill said. He cited
| three reasons why sales increased in
all sections of this country. as well as
abroad, without cheaper article or
a cheaper price"
Experienced Men Let Out.
First, we had to get rid of many
experienced men," he continued. They
had been good in this business, but
they had been up and then down. They
were too good at reading the financial
pages and statistical reports. They
knew they were as good as ever but
they thought they had no chance under
the present conditions. We could not
fire them up to tackle the seemingly
impossible. Present conditions had
smashed their morale.
Many of these men are still splen-
did producers. They will make sue
ceSSeS in other lines-green pastures
because their fire will return, but with
Us they are through. With two ex-
ceptions, all of our managerial leaders
to-day are new men.
Campaigns Shortened.
Second. we shortened our sales CAM
paigns; built them around the spirit
idea; awarded liberal prizes to the
heroes, swamped our men with morale
building bulletins and letters, not sta
tistics: intensified personal contacts
and gave loud recognition to every ac-
compliShment.
Third. We have stopped trying to
prove that prospects can buy. We are
now declaring that they should buy.
What happens to the dollar. the pound,
the franc, the peace conference, the
League of Nations, or to any of the
other weighty questions which trouble
many statesmen does not matter. Sales
will go on. People will spend what
they have 10 spend whether 1t Is a 40
cent dollar or a coop of chickens That
is. they will spend it when some one
really sells them something

GRAIN TRADE WAITS
PATIENTLY FOR CUE
Chicago Market Beats Time
Pending Approval of
Exchange Code.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December Like pa
tience on a monument smiling at grief
the grain trade just now is waiting and
watching as hopefully as possible
The main grief is that there doesn't
seem to be much else left to do at
present on the Board of Trade pending
Washington administration approval of
proposed National Grain Exchange
code. Experienced observers say fear
that normal trade prerogativeS will be
interfered with by new and onerouS
restrictions prevents any display of
leadership toward a strong advancing
market and that the big essential of
broad outside trade will probably not
be developed until suspense is re-
moved
Washington Government moves are
reported as temporarily the chief factors
OF grain market fluctuations. 1t is
pointed out, nevertheless, that wheat
prices are lower than when the United
States Government started the program
of buying of gold. Thus far also the
purchasing of wheat for Federal relief
purposes has not achieved lasting re-
suits as market stimulus. Latest re-
ports are meanwhile that -four trade is
extremely sluggish, with production
from commercial mills far below usual,
suggesting that the Federal process tax
is sending considerable wheat to small
country mills, as farmers are exempt
from the tax.
relatively bright spot is the corn
market. Corn prices have derived con-
siderable strength from a Washing
ton decision to postpone for month
any increase of the corn process tax,
and there even are suggestions in some
quarters that ultimately no increase at
all will be made.
Another encouraging circumstance
generally taken to indicate a future
higher price level is that current re-
ports imply farmers will use the Gov
ernment corn loan plan on a liberal
scale.
Many traders are expecting that de-
mand for corn for distilling will in
crease and that export buying of corn
will also be enlarged. Cheapness Of
oats Is much emphasized in some
quarters.
Provisions average lower, responsive
to downturns of hog values.

NEW YORK. December up to q
quarter Of an hour before the close to-

sagging affair, but Just before the end
buying came into the steel and motor
stocks, the list hardened and mixed
price changes, mostly fractional, pre-

Washington made no change in its

Utilities Get Support.
There was nothing in the business
news to stimulate interest in the share

The best showing today was made

WESTERN CARRIERS
CUT FARES SHARPLY
Sweeping Reductions Leave
u. s. Without Uniform
Rate Structure.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, December 2-Western
railroads put into effect yesterday the
sweeping reductions in passenger fares
adopted last october. Roads in the
Eastern territory, including New Eng
land. continue to maintain the old base
rate of SO cents per mile, and thus
for the first time in many years the
countryS carriers are without uniform
passenger fare structure.
The new tariff in Western territory
allows for adjustment by the individ-
ual roads with a range from to 3
cents a mile.
Under the new schedule, any road in
the Western territory may institute a
rate OF 2 cents a mile for one-way
travel in day coaches only. The adop-
ton of this rate is not compulsory. but
is left to the discretion Of the manage
ment.
In the Southeastern territory, no
agreement had been reached regarding
cut in rates, but a number OF the
larger systems have been operating I'M
der and cent coach fares.
Louisville g. Nashville initiated the
reduction early this year. Atlantic
Coast line, Florida East Coast and
other carriers in the territory have pc
titioned the Interstate Commerce Com
mission for permission to cut the Pull
man rate to 3 cents and the coach
rate to 2 cents.
