At Warren township police
station it was estimated that
from 5000 to 1000 persons will
participate in the parades at
Van Dyke and Warren and so
extra police will be used to
handle the crowd.
A few more thousands will
crowd the private picnic parks
throughout the county which
have been leased for weeks
ahead of time.
Additional hundreds will at
tend the annual chicken dinner
picnic and reunion of the st.

The flag-raising ceremony to

booths have been established by
the Navy, under the direction of
Chief Electricians Mate H. A..

to the need of vigorous measures,

warned a meeting of retailers that

Mr.. Hollands two related organ

for retailers and wholesalers. This
latter problem admittedly is more
difficult than aiding the manufac-

to ease the merchants burden.
These efforts have taken several
forms, which will be discussed in
more detail later.
The Senate and House committees

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Nov. 18.-Grain prices
drifted lower today, corn and rye
leading the way with losses of about
a cent a bushel at times.
Some grain men expressed belief
the slow decline of wheat values
recently, with closing quotations
about l to 2 cents lower than at last
weeks peaks, may have relieved the
tight situation which confronted
some millers who complained about
difficulty in operating with flour
prices at ceilings. Continued slow
flour demand, uncertainty about the
Government program to make loan
wheat available to mills and indi-
cations that imports of Canadian
feeds will be encouraged were
blamed for the markets weakness.
Wheat closed unchanged to q
lower compared with yesterday, De-
cember 1.24A-ss, May 1.27B-128;
corn, k-ss down, December, 82as,
May 875s s-871z; oats Say higher;
rye 1s-as lower: soybeans X off.
Traders said the advance in oats
was due largely to short covering
following yesterdays break of more
than cent
