a boon it is to the county. Who
foots the bill? Don't the ordi-

the exorbitant price for all this ?
The man in the regular army
Is provided with quarters or
rent for housing for his family.
He gets his commodities at the
commissary at less than whole
sale and without sales tax. He
gets all medical and dental care
for his family without charge.
Then his wife hires a civil
ian to take care Of her kids
while she sports around, play
ing bridge. hunting and fishing.
She objects to the munificent
charge of ten cents per hour for
this care and then pays with
groceries from the commissary
which she buys at less than cost
and the poor taxpayer foots the
bill.
Now comes the selected SER

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, June 21-lR-The
wheat pit was unusually quiet to-
day as dealers restricted opera
tions pending European develop
ments which they hope may sup
ply the cue for future market ac-
tivity.
For minutes at a time not hand
was raised or shout heard in the
crowded pit. Prices advanced about
1-2 cent at times but backed down
frequently and closed unchanged
to IA higher compared with yes
terday, with July 78 IA to 1-8 and
September 78 IL to 3-8.
Speculative enthusiasm was at a
minimum because of the uncer-
tainty. Some buying based on less
favorable crop reports and i'm
proved private flour demand ap-
peared at times. Additional gov
ernment flour purchases are ex-
pected over the weekend.

lard Is cents higher.
B. w. Snow, crop expert, re-
ceived samples of w h e from
southeastern Indiana that were
heavily infested with black stem
rust. He said the stage of develop
ment indicated danger of very
heavy losses in fields of which
these samples were typical.
Snow also had word that spring
wheat in South Dakota needs rain
over most areas and is deteriorat
ing or at a standstill in some sec
tions. Most serious reports came
from the south central portion oil
the state where drought and grass
hoppers are lowing prospects. He
said high winds and temperature
have damaged wheat in southWes1
North Dakota. Rain also is needed
in central regions where grasshop
pers are appearing but the crop ir
the northwest is heading and looks
good. Some moisture fell mostly ir
North Dakota and the forecast pre-
dicted some showers in the north
