cried out:
Come quick. Mama's lying on the

eventually to publish class studies on
particular topics from time to time to
be circulated among the members Of
the national organization, but plans are
to be worked out after the foundation
dinner next month.
DR.. James also pointed out two CO.
incidents in connection with the organ

that first action taken by the class

tors Tend to Wait for New
Developments

Chicago, Nov. 18.-(P)-Almost three
cents a bushel setback in wheat prices
Saturday went hand in hand with
trade reports that all talk OF stabil-
ization Of the dollar merely because
gold had reached q certain figure
could be disregarded.
In the aggregate, Saturdays trade
in grain was not large and operators
were inclined to go slow on either
side Of the market pending develop
ments. Lowest prices Of the day were
reached just at the last.
Wheat closed unsteady, 2ss to ~

May 90 to co.,; corn IN to IN down,
Dec. 46A to u. May 53h to "; oats
Y to l cent off, and provisions rang
ing from IL cents decline to II cents
advance.
Advances later lifted all deliveries Of
wheat temporarily to fraction above
Fridays finish. The rallies accom-
panied reports of an address at 5a-
vannah by President Roosevelt ridi-
culing persons who would divide up all
the money in the nation on q per
capita basis every Saturday night or
who would rather possess pounds and
francs. Increased selling Of wheat on
price gains. however. led soon to
downturns much lower than before.
Disclosure that the wheat market
was without aggressive support re-
suited in the execution Of numerous
orders to stop losses Of holders.
Corn and oats paralleled the &C
ton Of wheat. Provisions were re-
sponsive to hog market firmness.

There was no vim to flour or export
trade and cash grain markets were
slow and easy.
Flax broke sharply despite bullish

cember and May rye closed INC low

Cash wheat receipts were very light
and in much quieter demand. Winter
wheat was scarce and nominally un-
changed. Medium grade durum was
easy and slower but choice held firm.
Cash corn receipts were liberal and
in good elevator demand at firm
prices. Oats demand was fair at di-
version points and slow here. Rye
demand was good and offerings very
light. Barley tone was slow and bids
down. Flax demand was better with
some competition showing.

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW


New York, Nov. 18.-P)-Keeping
one eye on Washington and the other
on foreign exchanges, financial mar
kets Saturday end an exciting but
confusing week.
Sentiment, however, seemed to be
several snotches above the midweek
''low" The dollars sharp recovery
following precipitate decline to a
gold value Of nearly So cents and the
r. F. C's maintenance of q single
gold-buying price several days run
ming caused many quarters to veer
again to the side Of conservatism.
That considerable capital had left
not only the investment market but
also stocks and commodities was EVIL
dent to many observers during the
period of the dollars break. Prices
of heretofore popular hedging" medi-
ums reflected pressure until it was re-
ported the federal reserve control had
sought to make more difficult the
transfer Of dollars into foreign secur-
tiles.
There was general agreement that
steadying Of the dollar might prompt
a quick return Of capital to our mar
kets. as investors and spectators re-
cover from fears that dollar deprecia-
ton might get out of control. The
rise in government bonds Friday, COIN
cident with the currency's recovery,
encouraged a hope that this most re-
cent case of nerves was passing.
The week brought reports Of better
steel production and electric power
output, also word that retail trade was
still expanding.
