themselves and asked to enter
the course.
The teacher was unable to
accept additional students so
Mr.. Lutes went to an art store
and told the salesman to "set
me up" He didn't even know
what he needed.
He bought four brushes, eight
tubes of paint and a few other
necessities. Today he has 40
brushes, 100 tubes Of paint and
approximately so paintings to
his credit.
Mr.. Lutes tries to start his
paintings during week ends when
he can get the entire scene out
lined in one sitting, and is able
to finish the average piece in
from 8 to 10 hours during the
week.
Portrays 1914 Scene.
OldtlmerS probably will find
his portrayal of Silver Spring in
1914 the most interesting. It
is a view Of the old Brookeville
pike, now Georgia avenue, look
ing north across the railroad
tracks. He has detailed the one
legged Waterman who used. to be
on duty there, the feed store of
j. H. Cissel and the old Silver
Spring National Bank which pro-
vided customers with 4 per cent

The same logged determine
ton which made Fred L. Lutes
president Of the Suburban Trust
Co. in Silver Spring. Md. is
paying of in his latest avoca-
ton: Painting.
Although he has welded the
brushes for less than two years
and never has been in an art
gallery. Mr.. Lutes is gaining
fame among friends and BUSH
ness associates as an accom-
plished portrayer Of landscapes
in oil.
His technique with vivid colors
and fine detail arrests the atten-
ton of many who come into his
Office or home and the list of
those Who want a piece Of his
work is getting longer every day.
No Previous Inclination.
He has had no background
or previous inclination in art.
He hasn't even had a lesson.
About the only way he can
account for his ability is by a
long standing love to mix paints
for decoration OF his. home.
The spark came from an ex-
hibit several years ago of work
done by an adult education
class at Montgomery Blair High
School. He found many pro-
fessional men there enjoying

interest and a hitching post for
horses.
Mr.. Lutes joined the firm in
1928. In 1888 it became the
Suburban National Bank and in
1851 part Of the Suburban Trust
Co. which on Wednesday re-
ported assets of 500 million.
Before his works are dry he
brings them to the Office for ap-
praisal by his secretary, Mrs.
Winifred Wales, who also is
handy with palette and paints.
Mr.. Lutes has drawn favorable
comments from judges of an
exhibit during the summer of
1853 in Silver Spring. They
passed the word along: Ellis
selection Of colors is exception
ally good; please don't allow him
to fake any lessons"
There is no danger of that
because, as Mr.. Lutes puts it,
II just don't want to be hog
tied by any kind Of training"

Chicago Grain

CHICAGO. Nov. 6 R.-Soybeans were
unable to sustain their drive to higher
prices on the Board Of Trade this week,
but wheat, corn and lard established Q
strong market.
Day-by-day Enthusiastically wealth
er and eXports-dominated most trading.
Poor harvesting and storing weather
kept farmers out Of the fields,
And since they couldn't harvest their
beans those producers who normally
follow the crop with soft winter wheat
we're unable to get their seeding done.
Lack of anticipated exports loosenec
rye from its heights and. once the slide
set in, stop-loss sales uncovered on the
way down placed the grain in the weak
est position on the boards.
Wheat finished the week A-1h cents
higher. corn was UP K-12, oats were u
higher to "a lower and rye was 4A t.
cents lower. Soybeans ended 34-234
cents eli and lard was % to 65 cents
higher
Lack Of moisture in parts Of the
Southwest was preventing winter wheat
from being planted. In some other dry
areas. while the seed was in and germi-
mating more moisture was needed soor
II the crop was not to suffer.
Traders pretty much took the cleo:
tion in stride. They felt there was moi
enough change among ConRressmen from
the main farm belt to alter the Benson

! New 9,OOO-Ton Ship
Bought for Summer
Cruise. Trade Here

A 9,000-ton ship has been
bought by q newly formed corpo-
ration to ply the summer cruise
trade from Washington to points
south next year, 1t was learned
yesterday.
Last named Aleutian as flag
ship Of the Alaska Steamship
Line In Seattle, Wash. the twin
screw vessel will be rechristened
Trade Winds.
While passenger trade is the
chief immediate aim Of the new
line, the ship has considerable
cargo space which corporation
officials hope they can ultimately
put to profitable use.
The sale was made to the Car
ibbean-Atlantic Steamship Corp
Of Delaware at an undisclosed
price. An application for ap-
proval Of the transaction is pend
ing before the United States
Maritime Administration. The
request was filed earlier this week.
3OO-Passenger Capacity.
It's width, so feet, as well as
It's displacement are greater than
the Silver Star which inaugu-
rated summer cruises from the
revivified Port Of Washington
last year. It's 400-foot length is
about 10 feet shorter than Silver
Star. The passenger capacity OF
800 Is about the same.
Like Silver Stat, the newly ac-
quired cruise ship will be char
tered to the United Travel
Agency here. The agency and
the Caribbean-Atlantic Corp. are
both headed by John E. Smith.
jr.
Trade Winds will operate from
Washington on weekly cruises to
Bermuda, Nassau and Havana
from mid-May to mid-Septem-
Der. More than half the passen-
ger accommodations have private
lavatory facilities. Three large
public rooms will be suitable for
cruise conventions.
Registry Transfer Sought.
The ship, which was built in
1906 by the famed old William
Cramp 81 Sons yards in Phila-
delphia and completely rebuilt
during the 1930s, now flies the
American flag. The corporation,
In it's Maritime Administration
application. however, requests
transfer of the ships registry to
either Panama or Liberia. This
would enable hiring Of foreign
crews and other economies.
Whether Silver Star will re-
turn next year remains in ques-
ton. District officials are, PLAN
ming improvements to the mu-
nicipal pier on the assumption
that the ship will resume its
voyages from Washington.
The local Office Of Admin
istrative Services, in facts is
speeding plans to build a large
protective shed on the pier be-
fore the next cruise season
begins.
The structure. costing about
$4,000, will be 80 feet wide.
1913 feet long and constructed of
corrugated metal. It is needed
to house customs offices.
