Corn traders gave attention to news of @ proposed farmers’ strike in Argentina likely to interfere with corn shipments to Europe. Wheat ciosed firm, 1-4 to 5-8 above F Tuesday's finish, May 48 1-4 to 3-8, July 48 3-8 to 1-2; corn unchanged to @ shade higher, May 27 to 27 1-8, July 28 1-2; oats unchanged, and pro- visions unchanged to 5 cents lower. Comprehensjve official advices said that in the west-central Great Plains the condition of wheat was very poor to only fair with considerable dam- age by soil blowing. Emphasis was also given to reports of winter killing of wheat in the Pacific northwest and to severe low temperatures in parts], of continental Europe devoid of snow 3 covering. Price bulges, however, fail- ed to hold well and at times the mar- ket dipped to under Tuesday's finish. Although absence of sustained spe- i; | culative buying of wheat was a hand- icap to friends of higher prices, ral- lies from downturns were frequent and all-around fractional gains de- veloped from an intermittent influx on small purchase orders. These or- ders came chiefly from commission houses. Principal traders were the Bi main source of selling pressure.

At the start cables, ster- ling exchange and unchanged weath- er conditions in the southwest favor- ed_bullishness. 3 This stimulated moderate buying power early and when it ran out, the market ruled dull quite a spell but before the close & fresh rally develop- ed on rumors of good export business, firmer stock prices and a fresh batch of unfavorable southwestern crop re- ports, May wheat futures closed 3-8 high- er and July 1-2 higher. May oats closing 1-8 up, May rye 1-8 up. May barley 3-8 higher, and July 1-4 up. May flax closed 1-2 up and July 1-4 higher. Cash wheat was about the same as Tuesday with no demand for any type. There was no change in winter wheat and durum was weaker again with demand lower for even the good amber types. Cash corn derrand was steady from elevator interests. Oats demand seem- ed to be better and offerings held light. Rye demand was quite select. Mills continued to show interest in heavy test-weight quality or light- colored stuff. Barley tone was just a shade firmer but there was no par- | ticular force to demand for other than fair to good malting quality. and fair for the best types. Offerings were fairly liberal. | eo ——-@ MINNEAPOLIS RANGE Jan. 25.—(P)— O; High Low A6% 46% 46's ATs 4655 30% 30% 14% 144 ¢ 111% 1.10% Close M6% AM 304% 144 111% 1 22% 23% 3.92 397 3.80 3.90 Close MM 4% + MMM% 11% 1.11% 1.1% MINNEAPOLIS CASH GRAIN Minneg) Jan. 25.—()—Wheat: receipts 85 compared to 125 @ year ago. 18% protein Delivered _‘To Arrive 1 dk north. 52% 55% 52% 54% 2 dk north. ‘50% ‘53% | i Bak north: 49% 31K. 1 dk north. 49% 2 dk north. 48% 3d noth. 47% T'dk’north, 48% 2 dk north. 47% ase protets ” 1 dk north. 48% 2 dk north: 47% 2,ae north. 46% Ht dk north. 48% 2 dk north. 47% 3 dk north: 46% ‘Jed carlots) 17%. 2 ‘ Med to gd.. .24 2 20 Lower grds 18 23 .....

United Founders 1 1-4, SWEEPS FARM BELT CONGRESS IS TOLD Heads of Farm Organizations Warn Action Is Needed to Prevent Debacle Washington, Jan. 25.—()—Warn ing of revolution in the farm belt wi less congress enacts aid for agricul- ture was served on @ senate commit- tee Wednesday by heads of two big farm organizations as hearings open- ed on the domestic allotment price- boosting measure. “Unless something is done for the American farmer we will have revo- lution in the countryside in less than 12 months,” said Edward A, O'Neal, president of the American Farm Bu- reau Federation. “The biggest and finest crop of revolutions you ever saw is sprouting j all over this country right now,” said John A. Simpson, president of the Farmers Union. In a trip through the west from which he has just returned, Simpson said, he had seen “revolutions against the courts.” Simpson urged two amendments. One would make cost of production the basis for fixing the price the farmer would receive for his share} of domestic consumption, rather than | the pre-war level. | His other proposed change was to| abandon attempts to “regulate the| farmer” and instead to license the! buyer, requiring him to pay at least cost of production. H This first hearing on the much- discussed bill lasted little more than an hour. It had been planned toj hear a representative of the national grange but Louis J. Taber, its head, was unable to be present. He is ex- pected to be heard Thursday, after which producers, processors and man- ufacturers are expected to testify. O'Neal Voices Warning O'Neal was the first witness as the agriculture committee began hearings on the price-boosting bill passed by the house. | As he spoke of “revolution” Sena- tor Thomas (Dem., Qkla.), a leading exponent of currency inflation, broke in to ask him how it might be avert- ed. O'Neal replied that the “fundamen- tal” need is inflation by refunding the gold content of the dollar but that | “bring back faith and confidence in the countryside.” Chairman McNary (Rep. Ore.) quickly brought the testimony around to the products in the bill,—wheat, cotton, tobacco, hogs, rice, peanuts and dairy products. In answer to his questions, O'Neal. take” to confine the bill to wheat and cotton as has been proposed. He favored applying the allotment provisions to all products which have an exportable surplus. O'Neal conceded the bill might be simplified to some degree but declar- ed himself satisfied with the acreage control feature. He added that he thought the pro- duction cut requirement might be made “more drastic” than the 20 per cent reduction required in the bill. Under the domestic allotment plan, @ processing tax would be levied on the manufacturers of the products to which it applied and a bonus would be paid to the growers who made the necessary acreage reductions.

Fire Damage Small At Service Station Fire starting from a mysterious explosion Wednesday forenoon caused but little damage at the Myers Serv- ice Station, at the intersection of Main avenue and First St. according to ; Harry Thompson, chief of the fire de- partment. ‘Thompson said the workman at the station was unable to explain the ex- plosion, which he sald he heard in the upper story of the structure just before flames broke out. Rags, waste paper and rubber hos- ing was all that burned before fire- men extinguished the blaze. The fire ‘occurred about 10:30 o'clock. Lewis’ New Book May Raise Literary Foam New York, Jan. 25.—(?)—Furious bubbles should be foaming from the literary pot by nightfall—Sinclair Lewis's new book was out Wednesday. “Ann Vickers” is what he calls it— this red-headed author who put the word Babbitt into the mouths of mil- lions. It bares the heart and mind of @ modern woman. It takes her through school, suf- frage work during the first Wilson ad- ministration, settlement house labors, study of prison conditions, marriage to a social worker who turned out to be “a perpetual course of - bedtime stories”; and a love affair with a crooked judge. Man Pleads Guilty To Liquor Charge Patrick Gabel, Bismarck, plead- ed guilty to a charge of e ing in the liquor traffic when he appeared before Judge Fred Jansonius in Burleigh county district court Wed- nesday forenoon. Judge Jansonius deferred sentence indefinitely. eee | Ciy-Comnty News _| Mrs. John Barbie, has returned to her home, 419 Eighth St., from the St. Alexius hospital where she has been seriously ill for several weeks.
