PROTEST PRESENTED
AGAINST REMOVING TRAIN

Efforts on the part of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company to abandon
the morning train leaving Franklin
City, Va, at 5:33 for Philadelphia and
the afternoon train leaving Philadel-
phia and reaching Georgetown about
$40 in the evening are meeting with
stiff opposition on the part of business
men and general public throughout the
entire length of the D. M. and v.
branch. 1t is contended that the
abandonment of the two trains will
hamper the mail service to Philadel-
phia, Wilmington, Baltimore and New
York, as we'll as mail from those cities
to points between Harrington, Del,
and Franklin City, Va. The places
affected would be Milford, Glendale,
Georgetown, Millsboro, Dagsboro,
frankfort, Selbyville, in Delaware and
Berlin, Snow Hill, Stockton and Ocean
City, popular resort, in Maryland.
An attempt was made some months
ago to abandon some of the trains, but
the Maryland Public Service Commits
sion refused the request, contending
that it was detriment to business and
had bearing on the entire Eastern
Shore.
Lower Delaware would only have
one train, it is stated, from northern
points to bring mail and newspapers
and would be between 10 and II o'clock
in the morning. There would be but
one train carrying mail north, it is
said, if the proposed plans are car
ried out. This train, it is said, would
leave Georgetown between 2:3O and
o'clock.

FROM OUR
EXCHANGES
STANLEY COCHRANE POST
TO TRY FOR BUILDING

At recent meeting of Stanley Coch-
rane Post Is, American Legion, Som
erset County, Dept. of Nd, it was
voted to try to raise funds for the
purpose of purchasing the Corbln
Mausoleum property on Calvary Road
to be used as a Legion Home and
Community Center. The meeting was
largely attended and every one pres
ent was very much in favor of the
project.
The American Legion Posts through
out the country and in practically
every community have homes of their
own and it is hoped that our local
Veterans will be able to raise the
money to purchase this property.
This particular property is very
suitable for Legion Club Room hav-
ing a nice brick building and about
twelve acres of land that goes with
it. This land could be cleaned up and
built up until it would make wonder
full Baseball Park and could be used
for playground OF other Community
projects.
The local post has appointed a gen
eral committee of seven members to
devise ways and means Of purchasing
this property. The committee plans
to wait on all Ex-Service men first
for donations toward this prospect and
after seeing the veterans if they do
not raise the required amount they
plan to call on all the business men OF
the community to help them out. This
is worthy project and we feel sure
that it will have the whole hearted
support of the entire community.
1t is a shame for this property to go
to ruin after Mr.. Corbin went to so
much expense to fix it up and it is
hoped that the Legion will be sue
cessful in securing the property.
There is a possibility of converting
same into an Airport and Golfcourse
if properly handled.

GRAIN MEN SCAN
HOME SITUATION
Domestic Needs in Relation
to Short Crops Draw
Major Attention.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September despite
apparent concern for the action of
foreign markets especially during the
height of hedging pressure at Win
nipeg, grain traders today focused
major share of attention on the do
mestic situation.
The years production of grain Is
now fairly definitely established at
approximately a record low An at
tractive outlet, therefore, for specula-
tive interest is the possible DISPOSE
tion of what grain will be available.
Interest in wheat is centering to a
considerable extent on conjecture as
to how much Of the small crop will
be fed to live stock. Available feed
from corn crop more than billion
bushels below normal and the smallest
oat crop since 1882 and so per cent
hay harvest probably will be agu-
mented by wheat, it is believed, al
though supplies Of wheat are depleted.
Point to Past Years.
Leading authorities pointed out to-
day there have been years in the past
when wheat fed to animals amounted
to more than 100,000,000 bushels.
Nat C. Murray, a prominent crop
expert, estimated farm reserves of
corn at 300,000,000 bushels or 91,-
100000 less than last year. On the
basis of the current crop plus these
reserves and the visible supply, he
figured the total corn in sight was
1,815,000,000 bushels, or 976,000, 900
less than last season. While the pig
and cattle slaughtering of the Gov
ernment is regarded as having re-
duced probable animal consumption,
Murray estimated that 10000, 900
bushels of wheat will be fed to live
stock, compared with estimated feed
of 100000 last season.
Emergency drought relief rail rates
are scheduled to expire next week
and reliable reports say that in a
large section of the Southwest, with
full rates in operation, wheat will be
cheaper than corn. situation IA
vorable to wheat feeding there.
Trading in wheat this week was
too narrow to cause any. substantial
move of prices. Speculative interest
dropped to low volume, but at the
same time no more than scattered
liquidation occurred.
World Markets Down.
In the last six trading sessions
wheat futures suffered an aggregate
decline of rs to cents. World
markets also were moderately reac-
tionary. Corn gained "a to 11s cents,
its independent strength coming
largely from the strong cash position
and from the high price of hogs
which some interests said made corn
feeding profitable Some bulls were
believed to have bought in the an
ticipation that yesterdays private crop
estimates would reveal further de-
terioration in corn during August. and
they were not altogether disappointed.
Oats were "a off to l cent higher for
the week and rye was ~ to 2K
lower. Barley was higher.
Provisions were strong and higher
in sympathy with the hog market.

Utilities Again in Better
Favor and Packing
Shares Improve.

Associated PreSS FINANCIAL writer.
NEW YORK, September 1.-The
curb market was fairly steady in the
abbreviated session today. Trading
was light and generally confined to
evening up accounts prior to the Labor
day recess. Utilities again were in
better favor and showed small ad-
vances, while the packing shares re-
versed the downward trend of the
previous session and worked higher.
Electric Bond & Share, Empire Power
and Niagara Hudson displayed quiet
strength after period Of unsteadiness
in the utilities group Immediately fol-
lowing the opening. American Gas,
however, failed to recoup and showed
q fractional decline, while Cities Serv-
ice and American Superpower held
unchanged. A considerable turnover
in Swift International resulted in that
issue gaining around a point, and al
though slightly less active, Distillers
Corp. Seagrams was bid up an equal
amount. Mapes Consolidated, Mead
Johnson and American Cyanamid "B"
were among others selling higher.
Oil shares were in the lead of the
issues showing declines, with Humble
Oil losing more than a point and
Creole and International Petroleum
displaying softness. National Bellas
Hess and Wright Hargraves held un-
changed. Metal issues were inactive.

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September Grain
prices averaged lower early today on
reports of good rains in many Sec
tions of the United States and
Canada.
Deliveries on September wheat
contracts were estimated at more
than 100000 bushels. This tended
to weaken the market, especially for
the early option.
Opening 5s lower to 1s higher, De-
cember new l.033sa10312, wheat later
held fairly near the initial range.
Corn started unchanged to % down,
December new 79ha7934, and later
was fairly steady.
Trading was dull and much of the
business consisted of evening-up
operations prior to the Labor day
holiday.
Liquidation in September deliveries
was accompanied by scattered selling
on the part Of some longs and Kansas
City interests were credited with
wheat sales here.
speculative interest was at mini
mum and the price range for wheat
in early trading was from the peak
at approximately yesterdays finish
down as much as * of a cent.
Some confusion occurred in the
corn pit, due to Inauguration of
trading in new style contracts, neces-
STATED by the new Federal grain
grades, which went into effect today.
Leading authorities said that yester-
days private estimates, indicating
great shrinkage in corn during August,
might have to be scaled down further,
because of reports that much of the
grain was being cut for fodder.
September old contracts showed a
loss of as much as "a of a cent at
one time. but the undertone was fair
ly steady. Deliveries on September
corn contracts were estimated at
l,247000 bushels.
Oats held steady and provisions
were firm.
