Coppers were again active and strong, Green Cananea leading the initial advance with a gain of one point. Other changes Were largely fractional. Except for the heaviness of pan American Oil issues and the leather stocks the general market displayed & buoyant tone with sugar and merchandising issues in good de- mand. Ralls also were more active at slightly higher prices.

The fact that the government report showed a larger yleld of spring wheat than had recently been looked for counted also as & depressing influence. Be- sides predictions of a heavy move- ment of new wheat in Canada were given notice. The opening, which ranged from @ shade to %a lower, with December $1.05% to §1.05%, and May $1.11 to $1.11%, was fol lowed by a little general decline and then something of a rally. Subsequently, weakness increased Canadian hedging sales were said to be enlarging, and the crop move- ment in Canada was expected to grow rapidly unless weather condi- tions became very unfavorable. Tho clos® was unsettled, % to % to% net lower, December 1.05% to 1.05% and May 1.10% to 1.10%. Corn was easier as a result of bearish prospects of the government crop report. After opening unchang: ed to %o lower, December $.67% to §.07%, the market ehowed a down- turn all around, but then recovered somewhat. Fresh declines ensued in sympathy with wheat weakness. Corn closed unsettled at a range varying from ‘sc net lower to %o and %c ad- vance, December 68% and % to 68% and %. Oats were firm in the absence of any decided selling pressure. Prices started 40 to %c higher, December $.39% to $.39% and continued to tae slightly above yesterday's fin- ish. Provisions lacked support.

FULL QUOTA OF RELIEF RAISED BYKEMME RE Town Stricken by Mine Disaster Is One of First “Over Top” ‘The quota which was set for Kem- merer, Wyo., in the matter of obj taining funds for Japanese relief has already been met, according to a letter received by the local chapter of the American Red Cross from Thomas M. Temple, field representa- tive of the society. Mr. Temple em- phasizes the fact that the quota has been reached in spite of the great pall cast over the mining elty by ita own tragic episode a few weeks ago. ‘The letter follows “A doliar now is worth five next week.” That is the way Secretary Hoover expressed the need for quick action in the Japanese relief cam- paign now under way in Wyoming. “Wyoming holds an enviable re- cord in meeting its quotas, and re- Ports indicate that we will again stand at the head of the list in ace | complishing the work now under full steam. ‘ “I am writing this from Kemmerer where the Red Cross fs finishing up | {ta work in connection with the re- | cent disasters here. This chapter | with the memory of a tragic catastro-| phe a fow weeks ago has already | met {ts quota. It {s an example | worthy of emulation. What stricken community can chapters can accomplish, | “The people of Wyoming will meet | the need and I am sure your chapter | Wil send in its quota eastly if the | people are asked.

Want Winter Road KEMMERER—A delegation of boosters from Opal and points north arrived in Kemmere during the week to appear before the county com- missioners, in session, to petition for ® new winter road, Opal north. In the delegation were James Petrie, Lawrence Beas, Jesse Fuller, James Chrisman, T. D. O'Ne!ll and William iday, They asked that road bullding equipment be given, as well as material to construct a winter road from Opal north to Slade Creek. The present summer road fills with snow at places and is vir- tually impassable at times, The request of the delegation was received and acted upon favorably, the commissioners agreeing to turn over the county grader, one man and all material for the work.
