(By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Jan. 8— At the opening of the market today there was selling of a concentrated character. but confined to a limited number of issues. Baldwin and Mexican Petroleum seemed to be the special objects of attack. Weakness in these issues was soon reflected in a generally easier market in most of the active stocks, hut on the decline a fir demand developed, while in a few specialties the liuving was aggressive. This was not Fable particularly in Itoyal Dutch. --General Asphalt, International Paper an<\ a few other specialties. In United States Steel the demand was fair throughout, the session. Alter the recovery that we have had a -enernl reaction would have been no surprise. but the underlying conditions are gradually improving and thls~”was fully lonfinaed by a speech by Gorernor Harming of the Federal Reserve board, in which he called attention to the practical culmination of our depression. Financially, a most desirable change has occurred, money recently having been in plentiful supply with a declining tendency in lime rates, it would be no surprise if in the near future officials of our reserve banking system decided to reduce the discount rate.

B.—The Sun financial review today said: “Price fluctuations were narrow in today’s short session of the stock market and trading was quiet and of almost wholly professional inspiration. “At* the opening the list' advanced un dor the influence very largely of the encouraging view of things taken by Governor Harding of the Federal Reserve board in an address delivered Iu this city last evening. “The oil shares displayed less resiliency rerhaps than most of the other issues. "Toward the close of the market, business was more animated and strength was infused into several of the specialties, particularly General Asphalt, which ran i:n 4 points at the best. Bonds were Reposed to be a bit heavy. Grains and cotton were steady to firm.” N. TV Stock Prices ■ —Jan. 8— Prev. High. Low. Close, close.

July oats were off %c at the opening of 4-7%c and closed up %e. (By Thompson (fc McKinnon) —Jan. 8 — Wheat —There was sufficient scattered small export business done to the smaller countries, including Scandinavia. Italy and Greece, to keep the market well supplied with buying orders iu March to remove hedges. This gave the market a better tone all day. Germany was reported as In the market for rye. Fifty thousand bushels of spring wheat was sold from Chicago. We expect u liberal decrease in the visible supply Monday. Sentiment Is still friendly to the buying side of March wheat on tin; recessions. Corn —The corn market was slightly oa-ler during the early part of trade, but rallied with the wheat under smaller local trade, it was intimated that there were some export bid* In the market, but nothing transpired. Cash prices showed no changes. Primary receipts of corn are very large and a liberal increase in the visible supply Is slated for Monday. We expect to see a continued good movement of corn and accumulation continue for some time. Oats was also stagnant. What little trade that passed was based ou tile firm corn market. Provisions -- This market averaged higher on scattered buying and in sympathy with the strength of the hog market. Stocks of provisions are reported as too light. CHICAGO CASH GRAIN. WHEAT— Open.

PROMPT ACTION IS FAVORED IN CUBAN TANGLE Republican Leaders in Congress Feel ‘Time to Step in’ at Hand. WASHINGTON, Jan. B.—Republican leaders in Congress favor a prompt straightening out of the Cuban cutaglement which has led the While House to dispatch Gen. Enoch H. Crowder to Havana as a special envoy with extraordinary powers, and which may lead later to a congressional investigating committee. Latest reports reaching Washington Indicate that Cuba's situation, both from a political and economic point of view, is so grave that the little island republic of itself is incapable of putting her house in order without the aid of some friendly advice and counsel. Powerful Cuban Liberals in: Washington have laid before the Government the fact that although presidential elections there were held months ago there has as yet been no result announced. Representatives of the Liberal party maintain they are in the majority in Cuba, but have been kept from the .reins of government through the political machinations of President Menocal. Dr. Manuel Angulo," head of the IJberal movement here, said today the Cuban people would welcome American advico and friendly counsel, as contemplated In the Platt amendment. The Cuban case presents added importance at this time, because Repulican leaders, particularly Senator Himm Johnson of California and senator Philander C. Knox of Pennsylvania—two treaty irreconcilable* see iu it a golden opportunity to steer American diplomatic activities back on home grounds. Since the assembling of the present session of Congress it has been freely predicted that under the Harding administration the United States is beginning to pay more attention to affairs of the Western hemisphere and less to the •iffairs of war-torn, bickering Europe. Influential Republican* have insisted that the western hemisphere is the natural field of Influence and activity for America, and that we would do well to keep our own house in order before mixing too heavily in Europe's affair*. The Cuban case, they believe, presents just the opportunity desired for a start in this direction. Preeident-elect Harding has Indicated in speeches and conferences that he will strongly indorse Hu. :) a general policy once he Is in the White House. The sending of a congressional committo to investigate Cuban affairs probably would involve a small joint committee. The Senate Committee on Cuban Affairs, of which Senator Jonnson of California is chairman, consists of five members— Johnson, Knox of Pennsylvania, McCormick of Iljinu!s. Underwood of Alabama and Dial of South Carolina, the last two being Democrats. The Republicans were '•bitter einlcrs” on the treaty. McCormick is in Europe and probably coubr not go. Knox could hardly leave and Underwood, as minority leader, would hardly feel free to leave Washington, it was said today. The ultimate decision as to whether a '•ommltte • shall bo sent probably will net with Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, the majority leader, who is confined to his home by Illness.

B.—“lf Great Britain could not make MacSwiney break his fast, how can we in our small way compel a woman to eat?” This was the question of State’s Attorney John 11. Lawman.'Y’ermllion County, today when he was asked if the State contemplated efforts to break the fortyday fast of Mrs. Sadie Harrington, who is using this unique method in an attempt to force her husband to “get religion.” An emaciated appearance is the only known effect of the fast upon Mrs. Harrison, who formerly was a plump woman. So far her pulse and temperature continue normal. “Although my husband is not a bad man. he has no religion.” said Mrs. Harrison. “I will pray and abstain from food until he is converted.” The woman has also refused medicine In which concentrated food was concealed. Each day she is offered food and refuses to take it. Ernest C. Harrington, a local business man. Is the woman’s husband. “If she wants to starve herself to death, that's her business,” he said, in the incipient stages of the hunger strike. Ills heart gradually softened, however, and Wednesday he wrote the pastor of the Church of God, Eldorado, 111., asking him to come to Danville and urge Mrs. Harrington to abandon her fast.

WOULD GUARD PACIFIC FROM ORIENTAL RULE Canada, Australia and New Zealand Desire to Share in U. S. Policy. NEW Y'ORK, Jan. B.—Unique recognition of America's dominant position in the Pacific is contained In the persistent indications that Canada, Australia and New Zealand desire to share the shelter of American battle fleets. Au understanding among the four commonwealths for safeguarding the Pacific against Oriented control would greatly add to the prestige of the United States and would increase the authority of thU country as the spokesman of democracy in the Far East. The warships of Canada, Australia and New Zealand would not strengthen materially the fighting power of the American Navy. But the moral advantage of having the three great self-governing, Eng-lish-speaking colonies cooperating with America's trans-Pncifie policies would ba of a decisive weight in all critical developments. As long as such a combination existed. Japan would have to abandon every idea o? expanding in any direction that would imperil the economic standards of the white races. The British dominions facing tho Pacific have no first class naval stations for their own use. The United States is now planning the construction of several stations of the most modern type. Canada. Australia and New Zealand would have no major u*e ror their navies In a war for racial control of the Pacific if they could not avail themselves of the American stations. Every reason of sound strategy, therefore. requires that the three dominions cooperate in far eastern affairs with tho United -Mates. The dominions and America have a common xnrerest In making a circle of democracy around the Pacific. America’s vital needs for defense are problems of the Pacific far more than of the Atlantic. Under these circumstances, any venture by America into Internationa* politics is more likely to make this country an associate of Canada, Australia and New Zealand than of the trans-AtlanUo powers.

SEX WAR RAGES IN MONEY OFFICE WASHINGTON, Jan. B.—A merry sex war is in progress in Uncle Sam's money factory. The war started when the Plate Printers’ Union In the Bureau Qt Engraving and Printing made wformal | charges that there were too many “tricing girls” in the bureau and that they were retarding the efficiency and tne amount of production of paper money. In their charges the plate printers Intimated that too mu''h time was spent by girls employed in tho bureau in administering “little dabs of paper and powder.” In fact it was intimated that the plate printers objected to ‘'flappers” being employed in the bureau. The plate printers let themselves in for trouble. Federal Employes’ Union No. 105. embracing the women employes of the bureau. at an Indignation meeting ccfidemned the attitude of the plate printers, denied their charges and deplored their giving publicity to what they alleged to be a misstatement of facts. Miss Gertrude McNally, secretary of tho union, declared that the records of the examining division showed that the greatest percentage of spoilage of printers’ work is for “slywipes,” “lift*’’ and breaks,” which spoilage could la no wny be attributed to the assistants. "Plate printers are paid by the plec rate and in many instances the presses ars speeded up for production at the expense of the quality of the work,” Miss McNally stated. It is predicted that the charges of the Plate Printers’ Union will result In considerable friction in the future between the printers and their assistants, sine# If inefficiency does exist the responsibility for the same has been placed by ou side ou the other.
