that this country is much better pre-
pared in manifold ways to meet and
weather that shock than it was "a

down 81 to So a share, and which con-
tinued in even greater force, after
the New York close, in the San Fran

u. S. Business And Finance
Is Ready For Shock OF War

1. A general European war would
probably be an immediate shock to
the financial and business world, as
it was in 1914.
2. The American financial structure
is infantry better equipped to brace
itself and stand up under that shock
than it was in 1914.
3. American business and agricul-
ture probably would not receive an
immediate setback of the severity of
that in 1914, and probably would not
pocket profits on the scale of 1915 to
1918, because of certain factors.
In the end, popular sentiment is
expected to determine the effective.

FED STEERS
EDGE UPWARD
Grass Kinds Little Changed
for Week-Hogs Lose Sharply
Lambs Up 25c or More

South st. Paul. Mimi, June %,
1888 Slaughter steers and she
stock found a steady to 25c higher
market this week but grassy kinds
showed little change according to
the Federal-State Market News
Service. Vealers held steady at near
the low point Of the current season.
Bulls worked mostly 1920 higher.
A few head of choice fed steers
scored $10.25 and several lots $1,000,
but medium to good fed steers and
yearlings bulked at $8.00-9.50. Nest
fed heifers turned at $7.50-8.50, and
thin grassers at $5.5O-6.50. Butcher
cows brought $525-6.25, fed cows up
to 500, low cutters and cutters
4.00-5.00. Good and choice vealers
earned $6.50-8.00, strictly choice
$3.50 sparingly, and cost sausage
bulls $5.00L5.75, with the practical
top at $500. Stockers and feeders
ruled weak to slightly lower with
most plain to good steers and cal
YES going at $5.OO-6.i5. and choice
steers quotable at $7.50-S.00 very
scarce. Trade on dairy cows was lit
tie changed, but shippers provided
most Of the outlet and more COWS
suitable for the local trade were
available than could be readily
cleared. Medium and good springer
cows earned $60O0-s500, a few $9O.-
90, while others Jagged at $50.00-
$500.
Barrows and gifts dropped 30 40c
and sows slumped 40-50c early this
week. Increased receipts and a low
er pork trade accounted for the
downturn. A point of interest was
the fact that receipts here Tuesday
were the heaviest in three months
and nearly 70 percent sows. Ship
per demand was very narrow on
Monday, but these interests took
1400 head or about a normal num-
Der on Tuesday. The top dropped
to $S.85 on Tuesday and sows stop
ped at $3.50 with heavies on down
to $3.50.
Fat lambs scored a Csc advance,
but upturns of 50c-$1.25 on breed
ing material captured the spotlight.
Good to choice native springers
earned $3.50 Tuesday, choice Mon
tanas $8.65, good to choice cld-crop
wether lambs $6.OO-65O, and slaugh-
ter ewes mainly $2.00-3.OO. Old
