BETTER TRANSPORTATION (S DISCUSSED AT CONFERENCE Cheaper Haulage to Midwest Is Needed To Establish Markets, Ohio Senator Declares OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 17,—Liaison between ocean, canal, railroad and highway transportation to bring the benefits of cheap haulage to the midwest, wag the subject today of a conference of manufacturers, agriculturalists and traffic experts from throughout the- central United States who convened here, under the auspices of the mid- die west Trade Committee, for @ two days session. Senator Frank B. Willis of Ohio, | $+ chairman, pointed out that the mid- west manufacturer and producer must save both the time and cost which keep them from marketing abroad on an equality with compe- tors nearer the seaboard, tn a letter read by Malcolm Stewart, Cincinnati! at the opening meeting. Senator ‘Willis was unable to attend because of senate duties. "We of the middle west are vitally concerned with foreign trade and foreign markets,” senator Willis eald, “We are “producers, end the prices of our ‘products depend in large measure on our ability to sell our surplus in foreign markets. Our ability to sell in foreign markets de- pends {n turn directly on the cost and time of transportation of our Products to those markets. Every added dollar and every added day ts @ direct burden to our trade and our prosperity.” Senator Willis advocated the &t. Lawrence seaway, development of the Mississipp! and its tributaries, coordination of transportation fact}. ities, and fostering of steamship ser- viee from other than North Atlantic ports as means of equalizing trans- portation costs. Yo section ta the world produces 80 great a quantity of merchantable goods so far from the seacoast as does the middle west,” Victor 8B. Smith, of Omaha, asserted, in an address upon the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway project. Wwe are at an estimated distance of 1,500 miles from the seacoast. The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway will increase the length of our sea- coast by fifty percent, at the very point where it is most needed— making Chicago, Detroit and Cleve- land, ocean ports, and breaking ‘the neck of the bottle’ which con- gests ocean traffic at New York. Several scores of traffic experts, manufacturers’ representatives, and agricultural officials attended the conference, among them President O. E. Bradfute of the American Farm Bureau federation; Charles P. Craig, director of the Great Lakes, St. Lawrence tidewater association; Matthew Hale, president of the South Atlantic ports association; H. L. Hudson, traffic manager of the Port of Portiand, Oregon. pleadnnanin Pc i cde Livestock UHICAGO, Dec. 1/,—sHoge receipts 70,000 steady to strong; mostly to shippers, traders and small packers; big packers holding back; few bids lower; bulk 225 to 300 pound butch- ers 7.15@7.25; top 7.25; prime heavy butchers held higher; 180 to 210 pound averages mostly f packing sows generally 6,50@6.7! pigs scarce; a few strong weights 6.60@6.75; heavy weight hogs 7.00@ 7.25; medium 6.95@7.25; Ught 6.60 @7.15; Ught light 6.25@' ; pack: ing sows smooth 6.656.85; packing sh 6..0@6.65 slaughter pigs 5.75@6.60.

Advices from the government side as to its military movements are almost completely lacking, but the rebel headquarters et Vera Cruz, continued actively to clatm success- es. The rebels say they hold Puebla City and Cuatla, the two lower points of an irregular triangle which has Mexico City as its apex. Cuatla is only 46 miles southeast of the capital, The rebels calm further defections from the govern- ment forces in Guerrero, Yucatan and Tabasco. General Obregon'’s private secre- tary, In @ message received at the Mexican border, says the president is confident his troops will remain loyal and that the uprising will quickly be quelled. He is encouraged, the message says, not on'y by expression of loy- alty from the farmers and workers, but by reports of differences among the rebel leaders, some of whom are declared to be seeking the elimina- tion of Adolfo De La Huerta, the presidential candidate who has head- ed the movement from the start. EL PASO, Tex., Deo. 17.—Impetus has been added to the revolutionary movement by the surrender of the Port of Acapulio, together with the anmouncement of adherence of Carlos Greene, Pablo Rodriguez and other officers in the southern end of the republic, according to infor. mation received at the De La Huerta Junta today. Statements recetved from Adol!fista headquarter at Vera Cruz today state that it {s untrue thet the ports of Vera Cruz, manzantllo and Acapu- Mo are closed and that Teodore Fraziers, the De La Huerta rep- resentative at New Orleans, was legally authorized to issue the reg- ular documentation, Advices received also denied that any labor men or workmen had been executed by the De La Huerta troops in Vera Cruz and the origin of the reports was charged to the Obregon forces. “We have given orders to all mfll- tary chiefs to respect lives and prop- erty by all means,” Governor Jose ‘Prieto Laurens deviared in a mes- sage. Revolutionists and railway men to the number of 1,500, in the state of Yucatan have adhered to the revolt, it fs eaid. According to governor Laurens, the De Ja Huerta chiefs attach great significance to an announce- ment from Washington that the an- nouncement {s of much importance because it tacitly recognizes the pe- Iigerency of the revolution. Fall of the cities of Puebla, Cuau- tia and Morelos, are confirmed vy dispatches recetved from Vera Cruz. << Cotton NEW YORK, Deo, 117.—The local cotton market today made u tional jump in values in the last hour of trading, March jumping 100 points to 34.80.
