It Is reported along Summer street that certain larger woo! importing houses have overextended themselves. Large quantities of woolens have been brought into this country by importers who had expected that tho tariff bill would hare long ago been a reality. Instead the continued delay in Washington has caused woolen men to carry their importation in bond and now It Is said in some quarters that bank drafts are beginning to fall and quarters would be more than willing to dispose of quanties of wool held In bond. For this reason it U claimed that the woolen prices hold steady, but do not advance. In the West wool rangers are apparently preparing for a steady market as shown by recent transactions There are expectations of a continued demand for three-eighth bloods and quarter-blood wools.

By United Financial CHICAGO, Aug. I*.—Heavy selling • presure, induced by continued rei ports of better weather over the corn j belt, caused a sharp decline in the | price of all grains on the Chicago | Hoard of Trade today. | Foreign demand for wheat was exI eeptionally weak and caused that j grain to drop independent of the slump in corn. Oats lacked features and prices eased off in sympathy with tho general trend of the market. Lack of export business, due largely to the advanced prices of yesterday. was tho chief factor in wheat's ! weakness today. Receipts at primary market* were heavier today than expected and ad- . dod to the bearishness of the market. A fair class of buying by local commission houses helped to hold outs | prices about steady in the day, but weakness of the other grains proved to much and prices closed fractional- . ly lower than yesterday's close. Provisions closed lower in sympathy with a weaker hog market at 1 the Chicago stock yards and light de ' inand from local pnckeis. CHICAGO CRAIN TABLE —Aug. 18— By Unitii Pin'innal WHEAT— Open. High.

■MM ORGANIZATION TO DITPROHIBITION Work of Those Left Behind by ‘Pussyfoot’ Johnson to Be Combated. WOMAN VOTE WANTED League to Explain Clear Facts to Prevent Ignorance Upon Subject. By RALPH H. TURNER United News Staff Correspondent LONDON. Aug. 18.—The English barmaid, one of the country’s most cherished institutions and one of- Its most interesting, has found anew role. She has organized to combat a natural enemy—prohibition. They are on the warpath to counteract the work of the organization left behind by “Pussyfoot” Johnson. The Woman's Auxiliary League now has a thousand members. Woman Widens Sphere “By hole and-corner, backstairs methods, the ‘pussyfoot’ propagand ists are attempting to capture women voters," explains Mrs. Gladys Marshall. chairwoman of tho ’eague’3 executive committeo. “We intend to explain to women the clear facts, so that the feminine vote will not, through ignorance, be diverted into the wrong direction.” Thus does the Englishwoman widen her sphere. Another example is the idea of colidge bred domestic servants. The government is supporting this project, with the double purpose of relieving unemployment and simultaneously turn out a species of super-maid. To further this laudable notibn, the government has granted $200,000 to tho central committee on women’s unemployment. It costs SIOO to train an unskilled ■ girl, educating her to the point where : she can pass her dusting and cooking exaniinatons, and, so to speak, obtain her degree. The course lasts thirteen weeks, with thirty hours of instruction every week. Cookery, needlework, hygiene, in- ' font welfare and laundry work are ’ included in the curriculum.

CAMPAIGN ISSUES TO BE LACKING II COMING ELECTIONS

Representative Sydney Anderson Believes It’ll Be Each Man for Himself, STRIKERS NOT TO FIGURE Candidates to Stand on Their Personal Records and Merits This Year. BY REPRESENTATIVE SYDNEY ANDERSON. (Written for the United News.) WASHINGTON, Aug. 18.—The November elections are going to be primaries rather than elections. Candidates will sound out sentiment on Administration eprformances, rather than contest definite political Issues. In short. I believe there are no issues. It will be a case of every man for himself. Os course, the tariff might be taken as an issue. But it is purely academic, and only its details could be criticized. Then, too. there might be a ship subsidy issue. But there isn’t any enthusiasm for the subsidy one way or another. Strikes Not an Issue One might bring in the coal and railroad strikes as an issue, but that would be difficult. Remotely possible is the development of a labor Issue, with organized activity among workers to boost a third party or Independent candidate. I do know from experience that the populist movement, and the non-par-tisan league flourish in periods of prosperity, and only then. Certainly the farmers are discontented. They have ample reason. They have been deflated to the bone. But populism and non-partisan leagueism are not the refuges of depression. On the other hand, the ill state of the farmer is not to be laid at the door of any Administration, or of any Congress. The condition is economic, not partisan in its origin. Candidates Stand on Merits The political condition of the Nation today is such that every man will be elected or defeated according to his personal merits or demerits. And it is fortunate that the peak is being reached now, rather than two years hence. And one other factor must be considered: Politics is like business in that it undergoes cycles. We are at the beginning of anew cycle—the new crop of young and independent voters is responsible for it. Political cycles ’encourage enthusiasms. and we need political enthusiasms now as never before. Battery Is Stolen James Lewis, rear 622 E Market St., reported to police that a batter}’ valued at S2O had been removed from his car while it was parked at the above address.
