WHEAT HIGHER; (■INSLUIf Heat Complaints Steady Grain Quotations.' Bu United Press CHICAGO, June 30. —Grain prices at the close and during most of the session of the Chicago Board of Trade today presented the rather unusual spectacle of a rising wheat market and a downward trend in the other pits. July wheat close,! unchanged from Tuesday’s final quotation, but the other positions registered an advance of % cents. The trend was downward early in the day because of weak cables, fine growing weather and heavy crop movement, but heat complaints from the Northwest steadied the market, while caash prices were also better, although exports amounted to only 250,000 bushels. The defeat of the Fess bill took the life out of corn and that cereal hit new crop lows, closing from % to 2 % cents under the previous figures. The fine crop news lowered cash values, while the fact that deliveries of the grain are expected tomorrow was another bearish factor. July oats lost 1%, to touch anew low, while the other positions were also fractionally off. There was considerable changing from one position to another in the pit today, but otherwise It was without any particular feature. Provisions closed higher because two commission houses were heavy buyers of September lard. A large packer proved to be a free seller. Chicago Grain Table —June 30WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low.

$500,000 A YEAR SPENT BY WETS (Continued From Page 1) tion of which he would have to bear the odium, he had the moral courage to state his p9sltion on this issue while Senator Pepper did not.” Choice Between Evils "Your support of Vare then was a choice between two evils?” Senator Goff, Republican, West Virginia, asked. "Yes, it was.” Reed, known as a wet generally, declined to interrogate the witness and permitted Senator King, to conduct the examination. “It has been slanderously asserted I am wet,” said Chairman Reed. "There are certain dry men on this committee and I am going to turn Captain Stayton over to you. Then there won’t be any charge tfiat I am trying to cover anything up.” How It Started In 1918, Stayton said, letters were written to States where ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment was pending. Shortly thereafter the amendment was ratified and activity of the organization ceased temporarily. Later, said Stayton, he wrote friends and decided on the basis of their replies to form the incorporation. “The purpose of the organization was stated to be obedience to the prohibitioiKJaw as long as it was on the statute books, but to wofk for its repeal,’’ raid Stayton. "Did you decide to dictate nomination and control elections for your purpose?" asked King. Active in Politics “No, but we decided “to take as active a part in politics as was necessary for our purpose." There are about 726,000 members of the association now, the witness addded. The membership is pretty generally distributed throughout the States, although it is centered in New YWk, Ohio, Illinois and California. .Headquarters are maintained here in Washington where an eight-room suite is rented, he said. About thirty employes are on the pay roll. Since 1919 when there was no office help, the average personnel has been about fifteen. Operate Newspaper A newspaper is operated by William H. Fish in New Jersey for furtherance of the association, but as a private venture, Stayton declared. Gordon Hinckley is secretary apd treasurer of the national organization and Joined with Stayton in founding the association. King asked how many State organizations were in the association. “I think there are about 25,” the witness answered. “To what extent do you control primaries?” “To any extent we can under our organization. We publish literature and pamphlets and advertise in the newspapers. We help whatever candidate we indorse in any way we can.” On an example of what his organization does, Stayton -said he made a mass meeting speech last night In Delaware, urging that men 'Sleeted to the legislature be pledged for repeal of a state law, preventing issuance of liquor prescriptions by physicians. “Do you encourage violation of the Eighteenth amendment?” For Observance “On the contrary, we urge its observance while it is still on the statute books.” “How much has the present organization collected since its Inception?” “I couldn’t say that without looking at the records.” Btayton explained State organizations had complete control of their own funds at first. “At that time the Anti-Saloon League was spending $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 a year and I had only a few hundred dollars, so I did not make any public statement of finances, because I didn't want to look ridiculous,” said Stayton. “A year and a half ago before the new amendment to the corrupt practice* act was adopted the State organizations all together spent about $20,000 a month and the parent organization about $5,000 a month.” Strict Account Since March, 3 925, every dollar received and expended has been recouned in statements filed quarterly under the corrupt practices act with the clerk of the House of Representatives, he said. ' Stayton said that with adoption of the new system, the parent organization took over the State organization finances. The average monthly income of the parent organization from the begin ning “at zero in 1919” to $6,000 in 1925, was around $3,600 a year, he said. Wayne 8.. Wheeler, general coun-
