But the market was too engrossed in its own internal affairs to give mucn attention to outside happenings. Bullish demonstrations went ahead in individual stocks such as Central Leather, Asphalt and Kelly Springfield. while heavy profit-taking proceeded in some of the recent speculative favorites such as American Can, American Woolen, Anaconda and U. S. Steel. First Hour Reports circulated in the financial community that the reserve bank was contemplating another advance in the rediscount rate accounted for considerable realizing and short-selling in industrial leaders in the first hour. But important buying took advantage of the decline on the belief that another rate increase would be unprecedented. However, Wail Street has no idea that the important continued business expansion in prospect can be financed on the 4' per cent money rate but influential circle maintain the belief that business shall have gathered such momentum when ticraise materializes as to remove all doubt of the effect of the advance. Second Hour Selling in the general list was j checked before noon by strength in : numerous individual stocks. Central j Leather reached anew high for the | year on the be sis of improved leathei conditions. Among Motor Accessories. Stromberg, Stewart-Warner and j American Bosch continued reaction- ■ ary, while Timkin advanced to a ■ new high on talk of a dividend in crease. Equipments are being backed ! by larger working capital in com parison with the group of .t year ago. Twenty active industrial stocks Tuesday averaged 104.79, up .02 per cent.

WHEAT AND CORN 000? A FRACTION Lower Foreign Trade Is Felt in Chicago Trade, Bv Vnited Financial CHICAGO, March 7.—Wheat and corn dropped fractionally as the result of lower foreign markets while oats advanced at the opening on the Chicago Board of Trade today. A weak Liverpool market and heavy movement of all grains caused declines in wheat prices. Additional precipation was reported over the winter wheat belt. The Argentine market remained unchanged with indications of more liberal shipments late this week. Export demand was on the increase. Lower wheat prices an 1 a drop in hogs caused some decline in corn. Reserves on farms are heavy with farmers inclined to hold for higher prices. The shipping demand was slow. Oats advanced, due to lighter receipts and indications of a better demand by feeders. Provisions declined as a result of less urgent cash inquiries. Chicago Grain Table —March 7 WHEAT— Prev Open.

LABOR REEDIES RADICAL CHARGE MADE BY BAWLS Officials Deny Unions Are Linked With Any Bolshevistic Moves, Gen. Charles G. Dawes of Chicago was characterized as the “leading exponent of the radicalism of greed’’ in an interview given out here by J. W. Hays, secretary-treasurer of the International Typographical Union, in reply to Dawes’ Washington birthday speech before the Union Lea’gue Club of Chicago. "The linking of union labor ■with Bolshevism, the Ku-Klux Klan and ‘other organized minorities’ by General Dawes constitutes a deliberate distortion of the truth, an old thick of the propagandist to marshal irrelevant prejudices against a foe,” said Hays. "Organized labor bears no relationship whatever to either group, but. on the contrary, is the strongest opponent of radicalism. "The rule of minorities, among them the ‘labor minority,’ is assailed as the menace which must arouse the American people to tremendousu action. In the same breath, General Dawes attacks the primary election law and the principle of initiative and referendum as having made cowards of Legislators. Such inconsistency is typical of the generarl. "Surely minorities do not find the primary serves their purpose. It is not surprising that General Dawes neglected to touch upon the minority which holds the bulk of America’s wealth, the bankers' minority, which has never yet failed to obtain anything it has desired of the Government; the stock dividend income tax dodgers, who have defrauded the United States Govemmen tof hundreds of millions in the last year; the open shop minority. Strangely enough, too, the doughty General sees no menace in the activities of uplift minorities.” Soda Saves Time It will not be necessary to soak- navy or shelled beans overnight If you will just add a little baking soda when they are cooking.
