Preceding the late rally, wheat was down 5c a bushel from the recent high. A stimulating factor was word that Texas Mills had paid 3 3-4 cents over Chicago May price for No. 1 hard wheat as compared with lc over May about three weeks ago. Wheat closed firm, 1-8 to 1-2 above Monday's finish, May 58 1-2 to 5-8, July old 61 1-8 to 1-4. Corn un- changed to 1-4 off, May 33 1-8, July 36 1-4 to 3-8. Onts 1-8 to 1-4 up, and provisions 5 to 25 cents down. Opening 1-8 to 5-8 off, wheat after- Corn started weaken. Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas reported rain that would tend to relieve apprehension as to growing wheat, although not helpful to grain which had been winter killed. Help- ing to rally wheat prices was an un-|M official crop summary indicating that the condition of winter wheat in the four states named and in Colorado as well would average only 61 per cent of normal. This compared with 68 per cent reported by the government on April 8 and 74 per cent unofficially Mi estimated the last week in March. Abandonment of wheat in the five states was figured at 4,683,000 acres, or 20.4 per cent of the area planted. % | A rise of about 1 cent from early bot- s|tom prices ensued, but was later somewhat overcome by profit-taking. Corn and oats followed wheat, with “jcorn at one stage out-doing the sea- “son's previous low price record. Provisions reflected hog market de- clines. = i | MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES DROP BUT THEN RECOVER Minneapolis, April 19.—(4)—Wheat dipped early on rain news and stock market weakness Tuesday but word from Chicago indicated liberal buy- ing of September contracts by a farm board subsidiary and this bolstered 54 | the market. May wheat futures closed 1 cent higher, July 7-8 higher and Septem- ber 3-4 higher. Flour trade was light and feature- less and cash wheat markets steady Klto a shade firmer on account of light offerings. Oats was about % firmer. Rye gained a fraction. Barley started % cent weaker but rallied % cent im- mediately, Flax was dull and open- ed % lower, regaining 4 cent. There #4 ]was no trade in corn. Undertone of the cash wheat mar- ket was firm to strong and there was very good demand for high protein quality. Winter wheat was quiet to fair, Durum was in quiet to slow de- mand. Cash corn demand was sluggish. Oats demand was good, especially for seed quality. Rye demand was fair to good with mills favoring weight and color. Barley of malting quality was in good demand and firm. Flax demand was quiet to fair. — ' re O | Grain Quotations | nN i Hees MINNEAPOLIS RANGE Minneapolis, April 19.—()}— Wheat— 0) nn High 85% DULUTH RANGE Duluth, Minn., April 19.—(@)}— Durum— n h Low ‘oh 59% 44% 44% 1.34 1.33% . 134% MINNEAPOLIS CASH GRAIN Minneapolis, April 19.—(4)—Wheat receipts Tuesday 47 compared to 100 1.34% 133% 1.34% 1.34 1.33% 1.33% heat 15% protein Delivered ldk north. .74% 71% 2dk north. .12% .15% dk north. .10% .13% 15% ‘B% Nb 12% %e To Arrive Nt 4% oft | No. 1 dark northern 41 No, 1 red durum 4,|No. 2 flax 19 1 amber.... 66% .76% sees 12% protein 2 amber... 64% .75% Grade of 1 amber. 58% 61% . 2 amber. 56% 60% .

SHARP REDUCTION MADE IN FUNDS FOR NAVY DEPARTMENT Supply Bill is $153336,000 Be- low Budget and $31,921,000 Less Than Last Year Washington, April 19.—()—A close- ly plucked supply bill providing $326,- 340,000 for the naval establishment in the coming fiscal year was reported to the house Tuesday by its appropri- 36 ations committee. Although carrying $41,230,000 for construction of new warships and for modernizing old vessels, the bill is $15,336,000 below the budget estimates recommended by President Hoover and $31,921,000 less than the total outlay for the current year. In submitting the bill for immediate consideration by the house, Chairman Byrns pointed out the appropriations committee to date has reduced bud- get estimates on supply bills $136,- 000,000. In this bill the committee followed the policy laid down by Byrns at the beginning of the ses- sion, not to increase a single budget estimate, Virtually every activity of the navy was affected by the cuts. The bulk of the outlay allowed goes for pay of which $148,000,000 is for navy and marine personnel and $82,800,000 for civilian workers, This provides for a naval enlisted Personnel of 79,700, and 13,343 for the marine corps; 5,489 naval line officers and 977 marine officers; 1,790 mid- shipmen at the naval academy, be- sides nearly 3,000 staff and war- rant officers and 498 nurses. Admiral William V. Pratt, chief of naval operations, told the committee in hearings made public with the bill, that: On Danger Line “Under stress of existing conditions we have cut our operating forces to the danger zone. We can not go any further without jeopardizing our na- tional security, International condi- tions are such today as to render it unwise, in my opinion, to make any further cuts in the operating force of the navy.” In his report, Representative Ayres. (Dem., Kas.), chairman of the sub- committee which handled the bill, said economies were made in public works, aviation, radio funds and re- duction of flight and submarine pay, but to effect a further saving it would be necessary to reduce person- nel, withdraw vessels from active commission, provide lesser sums for repair and upkeep, reduce employees in shore establishments and cut the Pay of personnel, civil and naval. Immediate retirement from the navy of the veteran airship Los Angeles was recommended in the re- port. The committee said since the new Macon, sister ship of the Akron, will be completed by next January 1, the Los Angeles should be decommission- ed permanently. It did not make specific recommendations for disposal of the craft but pointed out that a considerable part of the $270,000 al- located by the budget for this ship could be saved by taking the step at once, a vena F Produce Markets | | City-County News | ———S (ee eh Dr. A. 8.

FOR SALE—A six hole Frigidaire and of crop surplus control—the domestic allotment plan—was launched Tues- day by agriculturalists and farm econ- omists. The proponents expected to draft a bill for presentation in congress. Among those at the conference were: Dr. A. H. Benton, of the North Da- kota Agricultural college and Dr. Sherman Johnson, of the South Da- kota Agricultural college. The plan, designed to make the tariff walls effective on agricultural commodities, is built around the al- lotment to producers of marketing rights for domestic needs. It has been proposed for first adoption in mar- keting of cotton and wheat. Two years ago, in Bozeman, Mon- tana, the plan first was proposed. The allotment certificates, under the plan, would be worth the tariff in wheat, 42 cents. These would be taken up by the processors. The price of the control would be placed on the product as in the case of du- the institution's executive | da: announced ties on merchandise. The essors would show their certificates on marketing the product. The government would serve only as the agency for issuing and collect- ing the certificates. Chile Officially Is Off of Gold Standard Santiago, Chile, April 19—(7)— Chile went off the gold standard of- ficlally Tuesday, after nine months of unsuccessful effort to maintain the peso at par through rigid control of purchases of foreign exchange in the legitimate: market. Under the provisions of the gov- ernment bill, which was aj by congress late Monday night, the value of the peso will be subject to a vir- tually open market with a few re- strictions to prevent a wholesale col- lapse of the currency. Actually, Chile has been off the gold standard since last July, follow- a ing the overthrow of the government of Carlos Ibanez.
