CORN FUTURES
LEAD RALLY IN
GRAIN MARKET
Yellow Cereal Up 2 Cents;
Wheat Irregular as
Oats Advance.
BY HARTMAN W. NICHOLS
United Press STAFF Correspondent

CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-Corn was the
market leader today in midsession
rally that sent grains up sharply
from the lows OF the early morning
on the Chicago Board of Trade.
Wheat closed off 4 to up 4:
corn was is to cents higher and
oats q to Is cent higher.
Forecasts of frost damage in parts
of Iowa, South Dakota, North Da-
kota and Wisconsin had consider
able influence on the market. VIM
nipeg likewise turned sharply up
ward on wheat.
Strong commission house buying
developed at the lows and carried
December wheat up cent to so.
The buying was sufficient to send
the price higher, but increased OPP
position was encountered which
checked the bulge.
Trade in wheat was relatively
u2ht ana II1e IldIktb SOllCWIldJ uil-
settled. The small break early was
followed by the rally which was
largely in sympathy with corn and
prices held within relatively narrow
limits throughout the day.
Reports of frost damage in por-
tons Of Canada seemed to be the
ruling influence on the market at
Winnipeg and Liverpool, the latter
closing unchanged to 4 higher.
BuenoS Aires was = to * cents
higher.
Oats followed the general trend.
This grain seems to be in a rela-
lively strong position. There is an
increasing demand from feeders and
the prospect that feedstuff will be
imported to meet domestic demand.
Provisions ruled firm, holding nice
gains for the week, made on higher
hog prices. Bellies climbed more
than 100 points and lard so for the
week.

as fact. Some think it is in an
ticipation Of an inflationary devel-
opment IN this country. In other
words. If the United States Is 60
ing 70 drive the value Of the dollar
stiu lower. England wants 70 keep A
step ahead By forcing the pound TO
lower levels for trade reasons.
Probably a more logical explana-
ton Of the development is to be
found in recent gold movements.
India and Africa have sharply re-
duced their shipments Of the pre-
rious metal 10 the London market
during the last week or so, and
shortage has developed. In view Of
the fact that the demand has shown
TO signs Of diminutiOn. the chances
are that many people operating
there have turned to gold curren-
cies. particularly French francs.
TRANCE still is maintaining a
i free gold market so that those
who hold French francs can easily
exchange them for gold bullion
This gold bullion. in turn. can be
shipped out Of the country to other
points to satisfy the demand. The
exchange Of sterling for francs
naturally would depress the for
MGR and stimulate the price Of the
latter-a condition which has been
apparent during the last few days.
II is possible. but not probable,
that England's equalization fund
has become exhausted or nearly so
This fund was created for the sole
purpose Of keeping sterling on an
even keel. It was the plan to buy
sterling when the price was being
depressed and sell when it moved
too far forward. II is 10 be as
sumed that if the fund were near
exhaustion new funds would be ap-
prOpriated.

VOLUME SMALL
Tobacco Shares Featured
as Entire List Moves
Upward.
BY ELMER c. WALLER
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-Stocks
we're firm in today's short session
with the exception Of a few sugar
issues which broke sharply. Trad
ing was light, although ahead Of last
Saturday, which set an eleven-year
low.
Tobacco issues featured on the
upside with Liggett 81 Myers issues
at new 1884 highs. American To-
bacco issues made good gains and
R. J. Reynolds firmed fractionally.
Reason for this upturn was the
Cuba reciprocal treaty which low
ers the duty on cigarets, so that
package of American cigarets can
sell at 25 cents in Cuba, against Is
cents before the treaty.
The sugar community was disap-
pointed in the duty set on sugar.
The coffee and sugar exchange was
closed, so there was no reaction
noted in sugar futures. Some of
the sugar stocks. however, were
heavily sold, notably Great West
ern. which was driven down points
to 3Ois and South Porto Rico, which
was of 24 at 1874. American
Sugar and Cuban American issues
made small gains.

Pound Sterling Steady

The dollar today held around the
level at which gold shipments can
be made. There were no additional
ones announced, but the Street ex-
poets a sizeable amount will leave
the country on this move. The
pound sterling was steadier in terms
of the franc, indicating heavier
operations of the British equaliza-
ton fund. Some traders anticipate
the fund will be thrown into the
market IN larger amounts to force
shorts in the pound to cover.
Action of the market for United
States government bonds gave the
impression there was support forth
coming from government sources
rather than a better feeling on the
subject of initiation. Governments
firmed in fairly active trading. Other
sections of the bond market were
irregularly higher, featured by rail-
road issues.
Railroad shares held their sub
Stantial gains of the previous ses-
sion and closed the week sharply
higher than they we're last Satur-
day. Union Pacific touched 1882

night at The Citizen office with
the announcement that the FERA
would not sponsor ball league
with teams that were, unevenly
divided.
The Sluggers need pitchers, it
was decided at the meeting; the
Stars and Trojans need experience
ed players. and the Pirates have
a multitude of both. Roy Hamlin
of the Sluggers was ready to agree
to. four evenly divided teams, as
was Popin Acevedo of the Stars
and Armando Navarro of the Tro-
jams, but Rogelio Gomez refused
to divide any of his players.
This brought the meeting to a
climax and Curry decided that it
was an impossible situation and
called off all plans for the league.
1t is thought that city loop
will be planned for the near fu-
ture.

TROJANS OUT
FOR REVENGE
in BALL GAME
TAKE ON SLUGGERS ToMoR-
ROW AT NAVY FIELD; PLAN
SURPRISE IN PITCHING DE-
PARTMENT
(By JovE)

Since the Trojans came so close
to whipping them in last Sundays
ball game, the Sluggers have be-
come worried about tomorrow's
contest at the Navy Field.
The Trojans have a fine hit
ting and quite a good fielding
team which. combined with Dick
Navarro's superb pitching, held
out well until late innings last
week when it weakened and allow
ed the Sluggers to forge into a
lead. That left the score at 3-2,
but the Trojans knotted the count
in the next inning and though the
Sluggers did come back to score
two more runs and finally take the
game, it was quite a scare for the
veteran ball players.
Tomorrow the Sluggers will
use Cheta Baker on the mound
and the redoubteble Beliss behind
the plate. The Trojans have not
announced their battery as Ar
mando Navarro, manager. is ex-
pected to spring a surprise. At
all events. Dick Navarro will be
rearing to go, if he is given the
nod, as he wants to exc out sweet
revenge for his defeat last Sun
day.
Tomorrow at 1870 the Slug
gers will be fearful, the Troians
hopeful and the fans cheerful and
Wen be-there!

SOFTBALL GAMES
LAST NIGHT OFF

With doubleheader on the
program last night for the Junior
Diamondball League, rain began
pouring about two hours before
game time and the contests were
called off.
The new scoreboard to be ex-
hibited at the games for the first
time remained out in the wet on
its premier night and great
raindrops rolling off its shining
numbers and glistening surface
fell monotonously and disconso-
lately to the ground.
