Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. buying that
centered in the rye and oats pit
today gave grain prices another
general advance.
Oats. up about a cent bushel,
reached the highest levels in more
than decade. In the spot market
No. l white sold up to 81 cents a
buShel.
Rye rose about two cents, deriving
strength from trade belief that i'm
ports from Canada may be checked
if Canadian currency is established
on a parity with United States
funds and from the fact that many
dealers consider rye too cheap COM
pared with other grains.
Mills and other professors as well
as shippers were in the market for
various cereals. More than 10000
bushels of wheat were sold to go
from Chicago to outside mills, while
shipping sales of corn amounted to
almost 100000 bushels and oats 30,-
600 bushels.

Stocks Move Lower,
But Budget Message
Shades Losses
Selling Dries Up Near
Close of Market und
Some Rails Show Gain
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, Jan. Stocks
moved to lower levels today, but
market action generally was trifle
better after the publication of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's budget message at
midday.
Prior to the budget release various
leaders had recorded losses Of
point or more with a few down
or points. These declines were
shaded as selling dried up and at
the end only few of the minus
marks exceeded a point and rails
and a scattering of industrial spe-
cialties had modest gains.
Volume remained low with trans
fers totaling around 100000 shares.
Down most of the day were United
States Ssteel. General Motors, Chrys-
Ter, Montgomery Ward. Sears Roe
buck, United Aircraft, Douglas,
American Can, Standard Oil New
Jersey, and Texas Co. American
Telephone came back little after
a e-point fall. Coco-Cola dipped
about 2, reaching new low for
the last year Another weak spot
was Eastern Air Lines.
Among stocks given support were
Southern Pacific, Southern Railway.

Corporate Bonds Come Back.

Demand also revived for domestic
corporate issues in the bond market
soon after the Presidents budget
message went to Congress.
Early losses were Cancelled in
many cases and gains of as much
as 2 points established toward the
end of the session. There were still
enough losers, however, to give an
irregular cast to the market.
United States Governments, which
dipped few 32ds of a point earlier.
rallied slightly in quiet trade after
release of the budget
Sharp rises were posted for many
foreign dollar issues, among them
Belgium IS of '55, New South Wales

DC. Express Volume
Up Is Per Cent
For Full Year
December Shipments
Show 1872 Per Cent
Guin Over lo40
By EDWARD c. STONE.


Express shipments in and out OF
Washington in the full year l94l
and in the final month of December
exceeded all previous records OF the
Railway Express Agency, 1t was
announced today by Supt. c. w.
Turner.
The December shipment total
was not only the best for Decem-
Der but also for any other month
in the annals of the company. Re
ports up to and including Christ
mas Day anticipated a new all-tlme
high mark but not as big an ad-
vance as the final figures revealed.
December shipments handled by
the Washington office totaled 3O7
packages, compared with 27l, ,656 IN
December of the previous year, a
striking gain of 35,940 shipments,
or 1872 per cent. Mr. Turner said.
The 100000 mark was crossed Tor
the first time.
In the full year 194l railway ex-
press shipments to and from the
Capital totaled 2,3809l5, in comparl-
son with 2O63,837 during 1910. This
was a gain of 317,078 shipments,
or more than 13 per cent.
Every month in 194l revealed an
increase in shipments over the cor
responding period in 1910. Next to
December, october was the best
month, when shipments numbered
216.314.
The December report on express
activity gives further evidence OF
record breaking holiday trade.
Bank clearings and postal revenues,
already announced, disclosed new
all-time peaks, and it is also known
that department store sales entered
new ground.

Her Job

EAST DETROIT-A 41-year-
old East Detroit woman, who
wrote to a newspaper complain
ing that nobody had a job for a

her belief a bit Grant.
The woman, Mrs. Mabel Papin,
of 2428O Grove avenue, whose
husband, Joseph, enlisted in the
army. wrote that nobody had a
job for her, apparently, she said,
because she was too old.
A few hours after her letter
was published Mrs. Papin was
offered job by E. A. Ash of the
F. l.. Jacobs company, Detroit.
She accepted the offer and start
ed working Wednesday.
Mrs. Papin's husband enlisted
