SEEN ON WORLD BASIS Europe Must Come to America to Buy Wheat, Creating Strong Demand, Report Says ECONOMIC LIMIT ACTS Minneapolis, Minn., Sept. 18.—The weekly grain review of the Quinn- Shepherdson company says: “Grains without exception are dis- playing for the present an undercur- rent of strength, Based on the the- ory of relative cheapness of corn and oats and on the fact of world's short- age of wheat and r: ntiment for the most part has reversed its bear- . ish attitude. “In plain words, there is a world’s shortage of wheat approximating one “hundred million bushels, based on reported current world import. re- quirements and surpluses. “Europe this year has no choice in placing her purchases of wheat. She must come to North America. After reducing the spring wheat estimate 25,000,000 busheis, the government re- port this week gives the U. S. com- bined spring and winter wheat yield as seven hundred and seventy million. Our own requirements are estimated to be over six hundred million.

PAUL. — Miss Margaret Newburgh holds the distinction of being the first woman in the United States to vote under the 19th amend- ment, made possible when Tennegsee, the 36th and final state ratified woman suffrage. In a special muni- have already sold for export close to one hundred and fifty million. Our surplus this year is about forty mil- lion less than last year, and last year Europe imported six hundred and fif- ty million. Car receipts to the primary mar- kets are reported running about sixty per cent less than the corresponding time a year ago. In August, 1919, Minneapolis total receipts of wheat, corn, outs, barley, rye and flax were 20,469,980. In August, 1920, under very favorable harvesting conditions, the total receipts were 13,632,324. ‘The significance of the lighter re- ceipts is not in transportation fail- ure. The fact is that the producer is not selling. His farms are now paid for, surplus earnings are invested, he can and is choosing his own time in marketing. In the corn and oats situation there is no denying that the crops bumper ones and must ‘reach the markets. With crop of 1,422,000,000 and a Canadian; yield 100,000,000 in excess of last year and a U. S. corn productjon well over 3,000,000,000 there is unquestionably a surplus in the country that must be an effectual bar to permanently high- er_ prices. There may be many who believe, however, that corn and oats are cheap enough and relatively too cheap when terminal quotations reflect a figure to the producer less than $1.00 and 55c respectively for’ corn and! oats. The quality of the new corn is undoubtedly adversely affected by the continued cold, wet weather. Grades under No. 3 and a large proportion of soft corn will likely result in the initial movement. Present reported European import will be very much reduced under the pressure of ascending prices. There is an economic limit, and_ necessity may bring at least a partial reversion to the 1917 policy of rationing. FEDERAL DRY “AGENTS CAMP AROUND MINOT Minot, Sept. 18.—-Paul D. Keller, northwest divisional prohibition chief, and his assistant, H. D. Duncan of; Minneapolis, have arrived in Minot to investigate illicit liquor conditions here and conduct a fight for eradica- tion of the lawbreaking, according to; their statements. “We have started our work, and we're not going to quit,” said Mr. Duncan while in Fargo Wednesday bound for Minot, scene of the latest operations of prohibition officers. They arrived here this morning. “It takes time to clean up a city and for this reason we are not going to quite the Minot field as hastily as some might suppose,” said Duncan. Questioned relative to the report from Minneapolis that more federal agents would be sent to Minot, he said, “I guess we are the men. Perry C. Darby, head of the Fargo division, who returned from Minot Tuesday night referred to the victims of the raid as “a tame bunch to handle.” Chief Darby said that the Fargo office is in need of four or five additional operators. GUN -TOTER 1S HELD IN MINOT Minot, Sept. 18—Charles or Harry Butler, stated by the police to be un- derstood to have been formerly a con- vict in the state prison at Bismarck, was arrested by Chief Lano and Officer Reed Wednesday about 4 p. m. after, it is said, causing trouble at the Loomis pool hall, 21 1-2 South cipal bond election she reached the voting booth at 6 a.m. Other women tried for the honor, but Miss New- burgh won the race.

E. B. Loomis finally ordered Butler out but the latter refused to go and pulled out a huge bluck 45-caliber revolver. Loomis, despite his 74 years promptly grappled with the fellow beat him up considerably and threw him out bodily. A short time after, however, Butler returned to the hall. Sam Loomis was there then and he disarmed the man besides giving him another beat- in. Butler ran away while the police were notified. Butler had been seen to enter the basement under the Haskell second hand store on north Main street and was found there by the officers hiding in circular metal stove jacket in which refuse had been thrown. He resisted savagely and only submitted after repeated application of the “billy”.

Sum- mons were yesterday afternoon placed with the United States marshal for process. Cases involving profiteering charges, transportation and sales of liquor and other violations of the fed- eral prohibition act, conspiracy, white slavery, perjury, Indian cases and one case of taking a stolen automobile from one state to another, will be in- vestigated. Federal authorities said today that the coming session of the grand jury will be free of any cases coming un- der the act of Feb. 13, 1913, of steal- ing goods: from inter-state shipments. Not a complaint has been received at the office of the United States district attorney from the railroads as to violations under. this act. At previous sessions of the jury crimes of this nature have been numerous. The old statutes relative to the la- beling of shipments containing whis- key and express agents. acting as agents for shipments of liquor are still in force desipte the acts for the| enforcement of the 18th amendment, and there are several of such cases to be aired before the grand jury. Information was given out at the district attorney’s office today that there is a total between 200 and 300 cases ready for trial in the different subdivisions of the state, and that it is probable that when the grand jury complements its, session the total number of cases will be increased to 500. Following the work of the grand jury in Fargo, will be the opening of the Minot term on Oct. 18 which will be followed by the terms at Devils Lake and Bismarck anda long term to be held in Fargo in December.
