WHEAT AND CORN FUTURES* Oats Goes Into High Ground, but Later Dips. By United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 19.—Wheat and corn futures slumped sharply on the of the Board of Trade TuesCM Oats, acting independently, steady, after going -nto new high ground on the crop. Wheat went into a sinking spell when leading longs became heavy realizers, disappointed by small export business. Weather in the American and Canadian growing districts is clearing up. Arrivals of heavy quantities of Argentine corn at eastern seaboards, a good deal of which is already sold, some to go as far West as the Pacific coast, caused leading com holders to take profits. Oats receded with other grains, but firmed up at the last minutes' close. Provisions sold higher, despite lower grains.

Demand was not unusual, but receipts of 7,000 were hardly enough to go around. Early reports from outside markets Indicated advanced prices. The price range was from $10.25 to $10.40. Heavyweights were moving at The top paid was $10.40. Medium mixed lots were selling at $10.35. The bulk of hogs sold at that figure, also. Lightweights were moving at $T0.35. Light lights were quoted at $0.50 to $10.35. Pigs were advanced a quartet and sold at $7 to $9.50. Sows were 25c higher at $£.75 to $0 for smooths and $8.50 to $5.75 for roughs.

The good demand for scarce choice killers narrowed the outlet for poorer grades, which were in the majority, pnd the market took on an unhealthy tone. Choice steers were quoted at $10.50. although none were good enough to bring within n dollar of this mark. Choice heifers were quoted at 51U and a few brought this level. Cows were moving slowly with a top quoted at $7. Receipts, 1,400. Calves were generally selling 50 cents lower with choice veals quoted at ?12. The bulk of good calves brought $10,50 5? 11.50. Speculative interest coupled with local demand caused another day of good buying. Receipts were estimated at 700. Sheep and lamb quotations were, unchanged. The demand seemed fully adequate to absorb rather large receipts of 800. Choice lambs were selling strongly at sl3.

EUROPE SLOWLY LEARNING JOY OF ICE CREAM Drug Stores There Would Be Ostracised if They Sold Soda. Times Washington Bureau, 1323 \ ! eu> York Ave. WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Europe is slowly learning the joy of American “ice cream sody.” The Department of Commerce, at the request of soda-fun tain manufacturers, has been making a study of the progress of the ice cream soda movement abroad. The soda-fountain with its quick service dees not readily appeal to Europeans, who like to sit in a case for hours dreaming over a little drink. Cream is scarce, as ne realizes who ventures to try the sticky concoctin they serve as “glace’ Americaine” in patisseries or tea shops in France. Soda Fountains Prohibited In many countries—Czecho Slovakia, Sweden, Holland and Germany, for example—the pharmacies would be ostracised If they got any such wild notion as selling ice cream sodas from a fountain, as do our own drug stores. Hollanders consider ice cream something for women and children to eat in cases. Strong men would not be so effeminate as to order it. In Portugal nothing Ice-cold is ever taken into the stomach without fear and trembling. The inhabitants will order "cerveja freca”—beer normally cool —or hot coffee on the hottest days. Spain Is more inclined towaaxf modern ideas. At Seville Ice cream la growing In popularity and maJay

soft drinks are served. In Madrid too, lccd coffee, iced tea, orgnneado and lemonade, ns vy-ell as “monte cado”—a vanilla flavored frozen cream —la eaten. More Popular in England People In Antwerp, Belgium, would be puzzled to know what a soda-fou,ntain was. Tlio American consul in Calais, France, said that just the thought of this great American institution made him homesick. Os course, In England you might be able to get pretty decent ice cream If you thought of it before 9 o'clock at night. The consumption of this national American d?sh hjia been growing so steadily among our English cousins that they are fairly stunned to learn that last year they ate 24,000,000 gallons. This doesn't make much of an Impression on the United States where in 1023 more than 183 million gallons were made commercially. RUHR DEATHS INCREASE Government Falls to Safeguard Men in Mines. BERLIN—(By mail to United Press). —The frequency of accidents In the Ruhr mining district is increasing, the miners union stated in a petition to the local authorities. The increase is due to the disobedience of governmental regulations for the avoidance of accidents by the owners, the union claims. This negligence has made that the number of accidents has been quadrupled during the oast eight months so that at present the average number of accidents is 150 per day, with approximately 2 per cent fatal. Since the termination of the passive resistance at least 30,000 accidents occurred In the Ruhr alone.

fCOY COTS OP DOLLSJN CELL (Continued From Page 1) “setting up” exercises and, according to alienists hired by the State, has shown no signs of insanity. Smile Gone But today he had changed. Mumbling to himself, he sits on the floor of his cell, playing with a broken spoon and some pastoboard boxes. “I’m only making mouse traps,” he crooned, humming to the tune of “I Am Always Blowing Bubbles.” “Pretty mouse traps on the floor — I’ll catch a rat. “Quick as a cat. “Watch and you'll see me, just like that.” And McCoy smiled bowing in recognition of the plaudits thousands have given him in the prize ring. His mind was evidently gazing back ip to the years of his fistic renown. He did not see those about him. Part of the time McCoy spent stopping up holes in his cell with wads of paper. He declared that Albert Mors, divorced husband of the woman he is alleged to have murdered, was coming through the holes after him and his safety demanded that he plug them. “Punch drank.” old-timers who gathered about the cell declared. Jailers Sketpical Others grinned and winked. “Pretty good play. Kid, ’ they said. “That ought to save your neck. 'From padded mit to padded cell, that the title of your drama of your life if you keep your game up.” District Attorney Keyes was told of McCoy's antics and ordered another examination by the t?tate s alienists immediately. “I am afraid Mr. McCoy's sensational attenipt to go crazy’ comes too late,” said Keyes. “The report of our alienists shows him absolutely sane.” The grand jury today began an investigation of the murder of Mrs. Mors, for which McCoy is held. Thirty witnesses have been called to testify. “Extreme Penalty”

Keyes declared today that he will ask the “extreme penalty” for McCoy if the grand jury returns an in-, dietment against the former pugilist. The three State alienists who examined the “Kid” Monday declared he is suffering from an exalted ego. “He thinks himself irresistable to women,” Dr. Victor Parkin, one of the three alienists said. “He thought he was the super sheik of the twentieth century, who couldn't stand to be 'thrown down' by any woman.” That McCoy did possess a strange fascination for women was demonstrated by Dagmar Daigren. his eighth wife, who visited the apartment in which McCoy and Mrs. Mors were living at the time of the latter's death and in a jealous rage created such a disturbance that police had to escort her home. “Proud of It” Miss Daigren, an actress and professional dancer, made loqd and vehement announcements that she was “the Kid's eighth wife and proud of it.” She also declared that “McCoy still loves me and no other woman can have him.” The fighter In his new role of “the great lover” tod. y denied any knowledge of jewelry valued at SIO,OOO, which Albert Mors, the dead woman's husband, charged was stolen from his wife either before or after her death. e McCoy admits that Mrs. Mors had made him presents of jewelry at various times, but said he knew nothing about the pearl ring, brooch and wrist watch Mors claims has been stolen. Police have been unable to find Dick Summers, an actor, to whom McCoy is alleged to have confessed killing “that woman I’ve been living with.” according to a story told police by a woman friend of the actor. Search for Summers was continued today. Mors Cleared Keyes said Monday night after investigating Mors that he was now satisfied wtih the latter's alibi that he had retired at 11 p. m. on the night Mrs. Mors was found dead. “His statement was corroborated by the manager of the hotel where he makes his home.” Keyes said. Investigation of Mors followed a garage keeper's story to police that Mors had appeared at his garage late on the night of the alleged crime and "behaved in a visibly agitated manner." “Mors visited the garage, all right, but it was earlier than the garage man thought it was,” Keyes explained.

The landing point is on the southernmost point of Greenland, and just a short hop from Ivigtut, the western base of the Greenland stop. The fliers will use the base at Fredericksdal, <4wing to heavy ice packs which surround the bay at Angmagsalik, the originally selected landing place.
