TRADE ON CHICAGO
GRAIN EXCHANGE IS
VIRTUALLY AT HALT
All Quotations Close NominalIy
At Same Figures Record
ed on Opening

Chicago, Aug. 15.-(P)-Grain trad
ing was virtually at a standstill Tues
day, awaiting the scheduled lifting of
minimum price restrictions by board
of trade directors Tuesday night.
All grains and provisions closed at
nominally the same prices as at the
finish Monday. September wheat at
92b, Dec. at 95A and May at 99N.
Sept. corn was 49%, and Dec. 54ss,
Sept. oats 36A and rye 68.
With the scheduled abolishing of
minimum price restrictions, a feeling
was manifest that supply and de-
mand factors would again dominate
the market. Belief prevailed that
there might be irregularity in the
market for several days, but this was
expected to be followed by return
of normal conditions.
News that the Winnipeg grain ex-
change decided to establish fixed min
imum grain prices was received non
chalantly. Mondays closing prices
were made this minimum. Little i'm
portance at first was attached to the
action.
Very different, however, was the re-
ception given to the initial prices
which came few minutes later from
Winnipeg. Delighted cheers went up
when it became evident that the VIM
nipeg market was rapidly advancing,
a Jump of more than four cents a
bushel was shown. The maximum
rise, though, was quickly followed by
a three cent reaction and enthusiasm
here faded.
Unofficial announcement was made
that the directors of the Chicago
board Of trade were still standing on
their decision of three days ago to
remove at the close Tuesday the alb
solute fixed minimum price level, and
rely hereafter on q fluctuation limit
of five cents up or down in any one
day.

SECURITY MARKETS
MOVE CAREFULLY IN
DESULTORY TRADING
Ticker Tape Is Frequently Silent
and Most Board Rooms
Are Deserted

New York, Aug. 15.-P)-Security
markets stepped carefully Tuesday as
the grain price situation and firming
dollar rates tended to cloud specula-
tive and investment horizons.
Stocks and bonds mulled about in
unusually dull trading, with the tick
er tape silent at frequent intervals
and most board rooms all but desert
ed. Grains at Chicago were un-
changed at their minimum levels and
only few scattered trades were made
at the restricted quotations. Wheat
recovered at Winnipeg after the au-
thorities there "pegged" the selling
figures. The dollar again moved up
substantially in foreign exchange
dealings. Cotton and other commod-
tiles were uncertain.
The majority of leading shares
moved diffidently. Homestake Min
ing dropped points and declines to
around point were registered by Ma
tional Distillers, Alaska Juneau. Gen
eral Electric, Consolidated Gas, Allied
Chemical and Illinois. Chrys-
Ter, International Nickel, Du Pont and
General Motors were up slightly. Many
others were unchanged.
While the Chicago Board OF Trade
problem apparently was the principal
deterrent to a revival of stock market
enthusiasm, the recent climbing tend
encies of the dollar again became a
financial factor.
Wall Street, while hoping for nor
NAL signs of a fall upturn in heavy
industry-particularly in steel-feels
this may be delayed somewhat this
year.
A late mild rally enabled number
of the leaders to finish with small
gains. Transfer approximated only
100000 shares.

SCORES MORTGAGES.
I'm HOME loan DEALS.
Y
Burdick Says Refusal to Accept
Bonds Is Handicapping
Recovery Move

The home saving program of the
federal government is doomed to
failure unless the government can ar
range some method of cooperation
with the mortgages and trust COM
panies," according to Usher L. Bur-
dick, president of the North Dakota
Holiday association.
Burdick said city home owners were
jubilant when they heard congress
had made provisions to refinance
home owners who found themselves
unable to pay the remaining indebt-
edness against their homes.
when we get down to actual busi-
ness home owners are stopped dead
in their tracks before they can even
make application" he said. 'The act
provides that home owners shall re-
ceive 30 per cent Of the value of the
home in bonds of the Home Owners
Loan association, which is not only
backed by the government but which
is the government. The mortgage
must consent to take these bonds and
at this point the business stops. The
mortgages will not take the bonds" :"
"The mortgage and trust compan-
les will accept the bonds where their
loss is so apparent that they would
rather have bonds than the houses,
but If they think the house will re-
sell for enough cash to pay their
claim, they will not take bonds.
"Confiscation of homes where the
debt Is only small part Of the value
of the home, puts them in possession
Of valuable property which they
know they can sell. From selfish
standpoint, which the law will up
hold, the loan and trust companies
have a right to take this position, but
from broader viewpoint they are
wrong"

MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES
MARKET Is INACTIVE

Minneapolis, Aug 15.-P)-With
the exception of little trade in some
coarse grains, there was nothing do
ing in the grain pit here Tuesday
and traders gave a lusty cheer when
the session was over.
Advices from Washington indicated
conversations regarding reinstate-
ment Of pegged prices but no an
nouncement was made up to the close
when September wheat was quoted
at the pegged price of 921s and Dec
ember at the pegged price of 94A.
There was little trade in barley
in the coarse grain list. Minneap-
oils September oats closed at 34a4
rye at 68A; barley at 40 and flax at
1875, all asked at the pegged level.
Cash wheat trade was slow de-
veloping but there was pretty fair
demand at Mondays prices. Durum
was hard to sell. Winter was quiet.
Cash corn was in fair demand but
easier. Oats were hard to trade in
and bids varied. Rye demand was
quiet to fair. Barley was shade bet
ter with demand more active. Flax
was in fair to good demand. Offer
ings were much smaller.

Police Hunt Members
OF Gang Near Chicago

Chicago, Aug. 15.-(R-Three hun
dred state, federal, and city police
officers, directed by airplanes over
head. fought machine gun battle
on Chicago's western outskirts Tues
day with three suspected kidnapers.
One of the suspects was believed
wounded as the bandits fled through
a veritable Gordon of police who had
tied up hundreds Of automobiles for
hours as they closed in upon the
fugitives.
The gun battle ended when the
suspects abandoned their automobile
and fled into woods. Police follow
ed them-the airplanes still pointing
out the way-and the men were be-
lieved to have been surrounded.
Police were secretive as to the
identity Of the suspects, but it was
