NEARBY WHEAT
FUTURES FALL .

CHICAGO, Feb. 8 ONSO.
May wheat was under further mod
crate pressure in early dealings
here while July and September
options ruled fractionally higher
on buying based on prospects of
damage to the winter wheat crop
from cold weather.
A decline at Liverpool and early
weakness at Winnipeg influenced
some selling of May wheat early,
but a better commission house de-
mand was met on the downturn
and the price Steadied.
Near midSeSSion May wheat was
Ac off, deferred options "a to Ac
up. Corn was bc off, oats un-
changed, and rye unchanged to
Ac off.
Winnipeg wheat was UNCHANGED
to Ac off at midseSsion, recover
ing from an earlier loss Of hc,
which carried prices to the lowest
level of the season. Liverpool

COTTON STEADY

NEW YORK. Feb. 8 uN.s0.
The cotton market continued
steady and slightly higher =
Trading was dull and interest
in the market lacking, with little
in the way Of developments ex-
pected from Washington this
week. Better Liverpool cables aided
the market in the initial advance.
There was q fair trade demand
present for old crop months, and
Liverpool was a fair buyer. Spot
houses began purchasing some
staple. The South, the Far East
and locals were the principal sell
ers.
Exports Of American cotton this
week totaled 167, 900 bales against
100000 bales year ago. Exports
for the season to date are 4,14O,.
900 against 1882, 900 bales in the
corresponding part Of last season.
Towards noon a minor selling
movement depressed prices slightly
from highs for the session. March
was quoted at 11.16, up 2; May,
1881, up2; July, 1855, unchanged,
and october, 1925, unchanged.

One of the most attractive
homes it has been my pleasure to
inspect is the one I visited yester.
day afternoon on Kalmia Street
Northwest. Built on that ever
popular center hall plan, with all
the new wrinkles, it is a most COM
plete and Nvable house. Three
beautifully decorated bedrooms
provide the sleeping quarters. The
wallpaper is ultra new and in per
feet accordance with the type Of
house. In telling you Of the two
baths, am afraid my enthusiasm
will run away with me, for they are
really quite lovely in every way.
Brightly tiled, chromium fixtures,
newest Of bathroom equipment are
only some of the features. On the
first floor you find an interesting
arrangement b.. living room with
wood-burning fireplace; a first
floor library with walls paneled in
knotty pine; a laboratory of mod
ernistic design and the dining
room and kitchen are full size and
bright and CHEEKY with all the
conveniences at your fingertips.
Before making your final decision
in q permanent home, see this one,
you won't regret it.

Chances are this is just what
you have been looking for. A COM

for $3.50. Imagine that it is
Semidetached, in new house con-
dition and can be purchased on
most reasonable terms. There are
three bedrooms, two good-Sized
ones, and a smaller one suited for
a child. The ground floor ar
rangement is quite nice, consisting
of a living room, dining room and
complete kitchen. If your chief
interest is in the kitchen you will
be highly pleased with this one.

this: You can buy this house easily
as the H. o. l.. c. is financing it

you can make the house pay for

to the house is its extremely con-

NEAR CHEVY CHASE
CIRCLE:
A home Of friendliness and
charm. This one is located near
Chevy Chase Circle, which is an
extremely convenient section to
live in, with churches, private and
public schools and transportation
close by. The house is detached
and has a very likable floor plan
with bedroom and lavatory on the
first floor. This is rapidly becom-
ing very popular, especially in
cases where there are invalids or
elderly people in the family. A
living room with fireplace, a wide
porch, well-arranged dining room
and kitchen complete the ground
floor. Upstairs are three bed
rooms and another bath which
provides plenty of sleeping quar-
ters for large family. Every con-
venience is found here garage,
lovely Shrubbed grounds and hard
wood floors. Priced at $500 it is
worth while investigating. Call

1895 BANK ACT
CONSTRUCTIVE,
SAYSFLEN|NG

Speaking before the annual din
ner of the Chamber Of Commerce
Of st. Louis last night, Robert "
Fleming, president of the Ameri.
can Bankers Association and OF
the Riggs National Bank OF
Washington, said that the queS-
ton of major banking legislation
has been settled for the present
time, at least, under an act that
is instructive and workable. He
continued:
81 know there is no disposi-
ton OIL the part of the Admin
istratiOn or leaders in Congress
to make further changes in
banking law, SO that bankers
for the first time in the past
five wears know the laws under
which they are to operate.
'YOu must remember that
from 1881 there has been con.
slant agitation for changes in
our banking laws which has
led to an uncertainty In the
minds of bankers. Anyone,
whether he be in business or
playing a game, must know the
rules If he is to be efficient.
"It may be obvious to us as
bankers that a given PROPOSE
ton as presented by q customer
Il not a sound or bankable one,
but we should not expect our
customers to be bankers; that
Is our job, and therefore the
prOverbial mo- is not enough
when dealing with such q situa-
tiOn in presentday banking.
The customer is entitled to a
clear and courteous explanation
of the reason why his proposal
Is not acceptable"
Outlining the business Of bank
ing as it affects the banker and
the public, President Fleming con
cluded:
Through opportunities such
as you have given me here TO-
night and our endeavOrS prop
erIy to interpret banking in our
daily contacts with the public, /
am hopeful we can bring about
between banking and business
an understanding Of our COM
mon problems, so that we can
be Of the utmost service to one
another and, in this cooperative
effort, bring back full business
recovery to our country"
Fleming is also scheduled tc
speak at the midwinter meeting
of the trust division of the Ameri
can Bankers Association in New
York on February II and at the
weel;ly luncheon of the Ad Clut
of New York on the same day. The
latter address will be broadcast
