I think this is their;analysis. .Let me show you that.it is. I am going to assume that instead.of there being too much profiteer. influence ;, in: ‘con- gress, we have enough.men like John .

I am going to assume that we have enough true representatives of THE WILL OF THE MAJORITY in con- gress, so that they could make their will felt. What would those gentlemen do? Here is what they would say: ‘“We are going to have forty billion dollars to fight the war. Now, we need coal. Where is the coal? It is in the ground. Who put it there? God Al- mighty put it there. Did he put a price on it? No. All right. TAKE THE COAL FOR WAR!” And they want lumber and want steel and say: “Where is the steel?” And somebody would say—these men; men like John Baer, representing the ‘WILL OF THE MAJORITY, represent- ing YOU, men who have given your sons for the war, they would say, IF IT IS RIGHT TO CONSCRIPT THE LIVES OF OUR BOYS, IT IS RIGHT TO CONSCRIPT THE STEEL IN THE GROUND! (Cheers and ap- plause). " MARKETS WHEAT ‘Wheat shipments continued to dwindle at Minneapolis last week, as comparative tables show. To meet the demand for immediate - grinding the government.has purchased_ 500,000. bushels of Canadian wheat, and this is now arriving and being turned into flour. Assessment of two cents per bushel eommission on all wheat sold to mills, re- dless of the fact that it did not go through any commission house hands, helped cause stagnation in the trade last week. Commission merchants secured a ruling from the food administration f{t appears that these' commissions would be levied even when the wheat went from country elevators direct to country mills, and the commissions would be forwarded Farmers and farmers’ ele- vators were holding up shipments to learn the facts. This is now in process of be- ing cleared up, and it is expected more wheat wili roll. Wheat Receipts Today WK.ago Yr.aago Minneapolis, cars ...378 276 65 Duluth, cars ....

Serious frosts in some sections did undoubted damage, however. Demand . for cash corn was light in both cities, and little export de- mand was recognizable. Cash Corn (No. 3 Yellow) Date M'p'l’s.
