CHICAGO GRAINS
90

CHICAGO, Dec. 23. (UP)-A broad
upturn in world prices today induced
buying of wheat on the Chicago
board of trade, advancing futures
for net gains of better than a cent
bushel.
At the close wheat was 4 to IA
cents higher, December $1.35B, new
corn was Is to Is cent higher, Dec
ember $1.08A, old corn was ss to rs
cent higher, May $1.032s, and oats
was y cent higher, December 51as
cents.
Unexpected strength in Liverpool
and Winnipeg, due to a sudden pick
up In demand for cash wheat on the
part of foreign import nations,
caught the short section of the local
market with rather large open COM
mitments and a scramble to cover
followed. Deferred deliveries show
ed the greater strength. Statements
by the Cargill Grain company and
others to the effect that the large
acreage estimated seeded to winter
wheat does not give promise of q
large crop due to unfavorable wealth
er conditions brought out buying of
the distant months.
Gables reporting a better dem an d
for Manitoba and Australian wheat
in the United Kingdom coupled with
news that Italy had bought another
cargo from Argentina buoyed prices
at Liverpool and Winnipeg. The
British market closed with gains of
IL TO 1le.
Corn Followed the advance in
wheat for a short time but fell back
to near previous closing levels In
the final hour when buying dried
up. Locals sold freely on the ad-
vance, partly because of an increase
in country offerings of corn to ar
rive.

NEW YORK STOCKS

NEW YORK. Dec. 90. UP)-Buy-
ing demand developed for oil shares

high since 1888. Cocoa was strong.
The price of export copper rose to
since 1880. Whole domestic copper
remaining at the six year high es-
tablished yesterday at 11ss cents.
The advance in petroleum shares
came in face of crude oil output
estimate for last week of 3,145, 700
barrels, new record high, and an
increase in storage of gasoline. But
oil optimists felt that the price ad-
vances on crude oil scheduled next
month improved position of oil
shares.

to new highs for 1881 while Con-
SOI1uateQ O1l was acIlNe on a Irac-

under influence of strike news al
though Chrysler and General Mot

PAY ATTENTION TO
RED ROAD LANTERNS

Since the legendary confusion of tom
gues resulting from the Tower of Bah
ell episode many efforts have been made
to create universal language. 1t
works fine except in the dark There
is a sign language for motorists that
works twenty-four hours day. Every
one ought to know by this time that a
red latern or flag means STOP!
DANGERp Everyone ought to know
and use the arm signals which indi-
cate to the car behind whether you are
going to turn left, turn right, or come
TO a dead stop. But as an added pre-
caution an alert driver will always
glance at the rear view mirror The
driver behind may be dreaming.
Everyone ought to know that official
road signs regulating speed and indicat-
ing road conditions ahead are to be
taken seriously In Montana a sign
reading CURVE means you can take
that curve ahead at the 40 mile per
hour limit imposed for curves, but if
it reads TURN, start slowing down !;
it is too sharp for speed. There is a
movement on foot to standardize the
motorist sign language thruout the I'm
tied States so that placement, size and
shape will be uniform In the mean
time, learn the Montana System by
heart and then observe it. Drive

Senator'S Fight COmpul-
sorry War Drill

WASHINGTON - Eighteen United
States Senators made an unsuccessful
attempt last week Con March II and
lS) to knock compulsory military
training out Of the nations schools and
colleges
Senator Lynn J Frazier, Republican,
North Dakota, started a debate by Of
fering an amendment to the army ap-
preparation bill which would withhold
federal funds from schools and colleges
that force their students TO study war
tactics The Senator cited cases Of
students being expelled from college
when they declined on grounds OF con-
science to take military training. He
asked that students be allowed to de-
eide whether they wanted to take drill
or not.
Quick to back up Senator Frazier
was Senator Elmer A. Benson Farmer
Labor. Minnesota, who asked, when
we appropriate money for schools, why
should we not appropriate the money
for schools, and not for military train
ing. and not to educate army officers =
Senator Homer r. Bone, Democrat

committee. deplored the brand OF doc

Austrian Reaction Hits
At Revived Labor
Amnesty Belied BY New
Terror Acts

VIENNA.-(CS)-The Fascist re-
gime of Austria is taking bitter veng-
eance on all those arrested for their
participation in secret trade union ac-
tivities in this country.
The twenty-year-old worker, Ferdi-
nand Steind, has just been sentenced
to five years at hard labor, together
with Rudolph Holloway, formerly an
official in the unemployment relief ad-
ministraton OF Austria, who was SEN
fenced to ten years in prison. Their
crimes, according to the prosecutors
charges, consisted in organizing work
ers in unions collecting contributions
in defiance Of the government and pos
sessing and distributing trade union
literature. These and other similar
sentences we're described by the pre-
siding Judge as very mild" in view Of
the youth Of the defendants.
Illegal Press Grows
In glaring contradiction to the politi-
cal amnesty declared by the Fascist re-
gime at Christmas time and mainly
destined for foreign consumption
stands the fact that more people have
been arrested during the first four
weeks Of 1886 than were freed un-
der the so-called amnesty The num-
Der OF public prosecutors at the Wen
ma courts whose special functions are
to persecute political offenders has
been raised from one to four The Of
ficial press bitterly complains that this
has been made necessary by the tre-
mendous growth Of the illegal under
ground press and its extensive distri-
button in all parts OF the country
The official announcement that the
prisoners of the concentration camp
at Messingdorf have been freed and
the camp closed is lie Of the 40
prisoners confined there only two were
freed while the other So were sent to
the concentration camp at Wollers-
dorf.
The amnesty extended to the lead
ers of the Republican Defense Corps is
also proven as a fraud Not only did the
amnesty consist merely in five-year
suspension OF their sentences condi-
tonal on their good behavior and alb
stention from public activities, but new
conditions have been recently added TO
it. They are forced to report regu-
larly to the police; they are not per-
mitted to use the telephone; they must
not visit any restaurant frequented by
former trade unionists and their sym
pathizers, and finally they must be at
home by 8 p. m. under pain Of imme-
diate arrest and completion OF their
heavy sentences.
The extent to which the courts OF
Austria are used for the suppression Of
organized labor is also proven by re-
cent decisions Of the Supreme Court
In reviewing the case OF the trade
union leader Friemel, who was SEN
tenced to three years at hard labor
for his participation in the February
flight, the Supreme Court raised Erie
mel's sentence to seven years. The
trade unionists Joelinger, who was al
ready sentenced by the police to q
months in jail for distribution Of ille-
gal literature has now received an adj
ditional sentence Of fifteen months by
the court for the same offense

foundation of that complete justice,
which would give every man reason
able chance to live decenty.
Our legal system must provide the
basis for an equitable distribution OF
our national opportunities. Our gov

the right OF property must be held sac
red, the use OF property must never be
allowed to Interfere with the general
welfare OF human beings or with the
right OF any honest man to live as a

believe that it is necessary to have
an amendment to the Constitution Of
the United States which would put an
end to all doubt about the constitution

the laborer's right to living wage,
reasonable hours and the power to bar
gain collectively Towards the passage
OF this amendment and the legislation
consequent to it, shall direct every
