GRAIN PRICES BREAK HEAVILY Bad Financial News and Large Receipts Factors. CHICAGO. Ang. 17. The Chicago grain market broke tinder news of heavy receipts and lack of a speculative demand today and prices went considerably lower. Depressing financial news, especially tbe current Federal reserve financial statement, was a contributing factor. Provisions were Irregular. September wheat opened off %c nt $1.22% and closed off 2%c. December wheat opened at *1.23%. off %. and closed 2%0 loweni. September corn opened at 55c, off %e, and closed off %o. December corn opened unchanged at 53%e and closed off %<•. September oats opened at 33%c, off %c, and closed %c lower. December oats opened off %e at 86 T gc and closed off %e. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) . —Aug. 17. Wheat—The early wheat price was lower on scattered commission house, overnight selling orders and the local crowd pressed the selling side. There seemed to be Eastern buying by cash and export houses, which absorbed she offerings. Considerable export business was found to have been done late yesterday afternoon. The business conditions of the eountry seems to have more effect ihan the legitimate wheat conditions and buying power was small. Cash wheat at Minneapolis was unchanged to 5 cents higher, while Kansas City was 1 % cents lower. The strong news pertaining to the cash markets, however, was offset by the hesitation Induced bv financial situation. The cross-currents are still marked strongly in the wheat situation, but as as the export business keeps up with large clearances and the pressure of cash wheat seems lessening. we feel the declines will possibly prove of limited duration. Coarse Grains —Corn and oats ran Into stop loss selling at (he opening with a very poor demand until lower prices had been established. Elevator interests were fairly good buyers and some commission house having ’came from Snow's con tinned unfavorable reports from Indiana on the corn cron. Cash prices were unchanged for corn ami nuts as to the basis, but followed the decline in futures Support continued Indifferent up to the close in the coarse grains with liquidation still in evidence. Provisions—Sharply lower hogs again induced liquidation,’ especially in lard. Shipping and packing interests were the buyers on the decline, but the hog de cllne was too lar"e to permit the market to recover very much.

LET GIRLS PUFF , ADVISES ONLY CONGRESSWOMAN Member of House Says It Is Their Affair if They Want to Smoke. WASHINGTON, Aug. 17—“ There is too much flying around among young girls because mothers and fathers have stopped watching over their children," says Mrs. Alice Robertson of Oklahoma, the woman congressman, affectionately known as "Miss Alice." She refuses to believe the world is becoming bad. but opines young girls are not being restrained enough. “You cannot legislate against these things," she said. “We have too many laws now. Afler a while we will be a tooth'ess race through getting all these predigested laws regulating us —this antismoking bi'l is an example. We ought to have to chew things more for ourselves. LET MOTHER H ATCH OUT.” “I don't go around much myself, and all I know about girls smoking and rolling down their stockings is what T have been told. I have seen some bathing suits that were too scanty, but I have thought 'Poor girl, she wouldn't he wearing it if her mother were looking after her.’ "The only way to correct these things is for parents to look after their children, and for each one of 11s to look after himself or herself. The trouble today is most of us are too busy trying to look after everybody else. We neglect to look after ourselves. “There is one thing that is very dangerous. That is Joy riding. Girls should not be permitted to go on joy riding parties unless they are properly chaperoned. LET THE GIRLS SMOKE. “If girls want to smoke, let them smoke. It is their own affair. If they do it in public, just to attract attention, let them do tt if they want to attract attention that way. Smoking is only a matter of taste, and let every one look after himself or herself on that. “When I was a young girl nobody thought anything of our old negro cook smoking a pipe. When I see girls smoking today I think if they want to follow she example of our old negro cook, all right. "Since Mr. Johnson introduced his bill prohibiting women from smoking in public in Washington I have received a great many letters some for it and most op- i posing it. One woman wrote me Con- | gress should put a stop to women smoking in public, as only bad women did it. I wrote her in reply if what she said was true 1 would vote against the bill, as it would be a good thing to be able to tell bad women that way. "I have even received letters asking me to do something to stop girls from roll- i Ing down their stockings. If they want i to do it let them. 1 suppose they think their knees are pretty. “The only pretty knees 1 ever saw were babies' You know all babies have j pretty dimpled knees. But when they grow up—you know no grown person has j a good looking elbow. I guess it is the \ same with knees. "The trouble about this is the mothers' j knees They don't bend tbeir kuees in i would not be rolling their stockings down so much "

CHICAGO MOTHER GIVES HUSBAND TO OTHER WOMAN Desires That Children May Not Suffer From Example of Faithless Father. CHICAGO, Aug. 17.—Mother love won out over the love of a wife for her hus band In one of the strangest “eternal triangles'' ever revealed in the Chicago courts. Mrs. I.ynn N. Hitchcock “gave" her husband away to the “other woman” that her children might not suffer from a faithless father. She was granted a divorce here wtth custody of her two children—John, 8, and Evelyn. 7 -and *lO6 alimony a month. Hitchcock will marry the “other woman." Mrs. Hitchcock blamed her marital troubles on the fact that her husband was a “traveling salesman." “I gave up my husband for m.v children, ” she explained “The mother love was greater than my love for my husband. The other woman may have him now. “If I insisted on living with him he might have starved me and my children. I wouldn't want them to live under the stain of a faithless father. “He was always l*iving and dutiful until he went on the road as a traveling salesman. Then his whole attitude changed. He int this other woman Myrtle, he called her—on one of his trips. She was his affinity. 1 suppose. “it was hard at first to decide. It seemed impossible to give him up. 1 knew a lot of women would have wanted to punish him for wasting my love. But I couldn't do that for the love of my children was greater than that. There is no love greater than 'mother love.’ ”

OILS UNDERGO HEAVY LOSSES ON N. Y.’CHANGE Stock Market Reactionary With New Low Level List. STEELS TAKE DECLINE BY' MONITOR. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. NEW YORK, Aug. /17.— Yesterday's stock market furnished a fair amount of activity considering the scale of recent operations but the toue was reactionary and losses throughout the list were general. Another list of new low levels was registered and no quarter of the market was entirely exempt from pressure. A good deal of the selling was thought to represent liquidation, although reports to the effect that Western banks were selling out collateral were not, of course, susceptible of confirmation. One of the weak points of the market was represented by the oils, practically all of which suffered more or less and some of them severely. Ail of the Mexican Petroleum group were actively sold and the pressure Included Houston, Texas Company, Sinclair and Cosden. California Petroleum was not particularly helped by a very favorable statement. v Sharp declines were registered by some of the equipments, notably Railway Steel Spring, American Steel Foundry and Pressed Steel Car. General Eleexris resumed its decline and among the weak miscellaneous stocks were International Harvester, Chandler Motors and American International. In the absence of news of a definitely discouraging character, tbe downward tendency of the market probably con be explained only on the ground of scattered liquidation with the usual bear pressure and a lack of outside buying as an offset to this pressure. Public confidence and public interest in the market seldom have been at a lower ebb. WALL STREET GOSSIP, BY' MONITOR. The market Tuesday differed little from that of recent sessions as the slow liquidation which has been in evidence in many issues was continued. A long list of common and preferred stocks made tie wlow levels, not only for the present movement, but in some Instances for all time. For more than a month International Harvester was held between fractions below 71 and fractions above 75. The short interest was fairly well eliminated through the narrowness of the movement, as well as by an imposition of a premium for borrowing tbe stock. When distribution had been completed at * this level, the price was permitted to decline and transactions were recorded at f>S%. Part of the selling for months past has been for the account of interests identified wiih the company. There have been vague rumors of a dividend reduction, but these are not taken seriously. The company generally Is supposed to he a large bolder of farmers' paper which is frozen credit and the agricultural intcresis are not enjoying such prosperity as will admit of large purchases of new equipment. It is reported, too, that a general price reduction will be put Into effect Sept. 1. These are the underlying reasons for the recent selling.

i Sinclair Oil made anew low record for { all time when it sold below 17. This 1 price compares with SCO which was the i last underwriting price. There is no ! evidence of banking support and such I fractional rallies as occur are due wholly | to the covering of short contracts. ! The railroads were firm during the day [ on early reports from Washington that (he Townsend bill* would he passed before Congress adjourned. When a little tired selling eame into the market just before the close, the rails yielded easily. The trading element is inclined to think the recent advance which carried some issues Id to 20 points from their low prices "of June discounted most of the favorable faetors which the market might experience from the passage of this legisi lation. „ The oil stocks were heavy under the i pressure of liquidation sales. Tbe statement of California Petroleum for the six months ended June 30 showing a surplus after charges and taxes of *1.520,685 equal to preferred dividend of $7.79 per share on the common, as compared with $4 94 in the corresponding period of 1920 failed to exercise more than a stabilizing effect on this issue. The foreign oils were particularly sensitive to selling orders. Mexican Petroleum, Pan-Ameriean and Royal Dutch all making new lows for the present movement. Pan-American B sold at the new low record price of Baldwin Locomotive was the firmest of the equipment stocks, favorable sentiment being created by the publication; of the orders taken in Mexico. It showed some loss for the day, but stood up in contrast to Railway Steel Springs,! Pressed Steel Tar. Haskell A Barker and some of the other equipment issues. The arrangement whereby the Baldwin' Locomotive Company accepts Mexican' government notes for equipment valued' at $2,500,000. is raising again in the. street the quosfion as to how far a, corporation may go in using stock-' holders’ money to finance foreign gov-' ennment requirements. The granting ofi credit by an individual corporation to a private customer is an established bust-, ness custom. The granting of credit*' by a private corporation to a foreign! government is a matter which is viewed in not altogether the same light. The Freeport Texas Company neports for the six months ended June 30 net profits after expenses, hut before taxes, depreciation and depletion charges, *217,866. equal to 43 cents per share on the' stock, as compared with $738,493, or *1.47) tier share in the corresponding penlod last year.

The railway freight movement, according 10 executives here, has shown some increase since the second week in July, but It has hardly equaled the normal seasonal increase which usually com-' mences at this time and continues up to September or October. The eastenn lines reach some increase in movement of coal into that district. This leads many traders to the conclusion that surplus stocks of steel are being moved rather than any renewal of steel making activity. The copper stocks continued to show such limited liquidation as the market is capable of absorbing at this time. Sales of the metal are reduced to the minimum* with offerings at 12 cents as against 12% cents, which was the quotation firmly maintained hv the large producers up until Monday. Directors of the American Telpgraph and Telephone Company met and de-' dared the regular quarterly dividend of $2.25 per share on the stock of that corporation. The quarterly dividend of 87% cents per share was declared by the dl-, rectors of the Erie & Pittsburgh Railroad Company. The steel stocks have done little mere than mark time during recent market sessions. A report was current that Republic Iron and Steel Is operating at about 40 per cent of capacity as compared with 15 per cpnt operations at the low paint of production and with 25 per cent as an average for the first six months The short interest in this stock Is practically eliminated and such few transactions as are reported from day to day represent nothing more than the operations of floor traders.—Copyright, 1921. hv Public Ledger Cos.
