Bu United Press NEW YORK, July 21.—Overnight comment regarding yesterday’s re action alrpost unanimously ascribed it to the need of a technical reaction to adjust the market’s inside posi ti6n after recent gains. Although some of the observers attribute the selling movement partially to uneasiness over the French situation. Not much importance was attached to thatHheory, and the fact that prices among industrial leaders snapped back aggressively In the closing dealings was regarded as Confirm! tion that the setback was a corrective process. Speculative sentiment, thereftye, >ntinued bullish at the opening and "onsiderab'.e buying came into trading favorites in the belief that further sharp recoveries would result from the improvement in the mar ket’s internal condition. Baldwin maintained leadership of the indus trial group, moving up fractionally to the best levels of the current move at 124%. Stocks maintained a good tone around noon, resisting attempts to hrin gabout a resumption of 'iiuesday.’s reaction. Although common was held back by a disposition showing in trading circles to wait the outcome of next Tuesday's dividend, premier Industrials acted in a manner which suggested the continuation of good buying.

CHICAGO GRAIN ’ CLOSEJSLOWER Oats Only Pit Free From Losses at Finish. Bit Ignited Press CHICAGO. July 21.—With the exception of outs, all grains closed lower on the Chicago board of trade today. That prrwin "-as under pressure early in the day as the result of the cooler weather ahd the showers in the Northwest, the lower Liverpool cables, and weaker cash prices. Some of the day's losses were recovered in a good mid-session rally, but lxrices were gettfrally Vic to below Tuesday’s final flotations. The Southwestern movement still continues in volume, and the tracks at many points are Jammed with cars loaded with wheat. Buying has quited down, and there is an absence of outside demand, so that cash prices are from 1 to 2 cents off. At Minneapolis they lost as much as 5 cents. The prediction of cooler weather and rain for the corn belt caused heavy liquidation in that pit. Losses of from 1% to 4*4 cents were recorded on the close. Cash corn prices also eased off. Oats were dull, but maintained their price level unchanged. The cooler weather will be of some benefit to the crop./ Provisions closed uneven. Chicago Grain Table —July 21— WHEAT— Prer. Open. High.

USURY CHARGE HURLED AT U.S. (Continued From P&se 1) in exploiting the differences between* England and Germany, now h#s trained its heaviest guns against the United States. Today the “Mail” flooded London with a contents bill, or broad sheet displayed by newsboys, for the same purpose that Am* i lean newsies shout, the news m America# which bore in huge red-inked type the single word “usury” with the first two letters “us” capitalized so that there would be no mistaking tlie meaning. The same word, “Usury,” beaded the leading editorial today and also the chief news story which was filled with most violent recriminations regarding the United States. As the “Mail” has the largest continental circulation, its attitude undoubtedly will have a serious effect throughout Europe, other papers already are following the “Mail’s" lead, although generally less forcefully. It is undeniable that these papers now are uttering anti-American sentiments which have been growing popular during the past months.* France Near Precipice But regardless of this phase of the situation. British financiers generally consider France's plight to be exceedingly perilous. They believe France is fast approaching the precipice lieneath which lies financial. if not political, chaos and such chaos cannot be averted so long as personal and party interests In Paris are placed above those of the nation. Few persons can be found here or in Paris who see in Premier Edffiiard Herriot s administration any possibility of solution of France’s problem. This partly is because of

the continued wide divergence of the parties regarding suitable remedies and methods of rehabilitation, and partly due to the evident inability of the successive administrations to check speculation on the part of the French people, are predictions on all sides that the franc will follow the mark. Dawes Plan, The financial collapse of France might be checked if the French Parliament could agree upon some form of financial dictatorship for the purpose of effective and executive decrees without hindrance*-something along the 'lines of the proposal made by the resigned minister of finance, Joseph Caillaux. Otherwise some Dawes plan like that worked out for Germany, or ts League of Nations plan shnilar to those applied for the rehabilitation of Austria, Hungary and Bulgaria may be necessary. In the meantime, Europe’s postwar “moral reconstruction,” which reached its peak at Locarno last autumn, has been interrupted owing to the shattering effect upon the inft-uenee of the League of Nations of the rows over permanent league council seats. The nations still are busy arming themselves Just as they were busy before 1914. The urge for armaments is apparent almost everywhere. David Lloyd-George, in a speech Tuesday, said: "Europe drank armaments until it got delirium tremens in 1914 and it is going on secretly drinking now.” He mentioned Spain's recent appropriation of more than $250,000,000, and Spain Is not conspicuous.

The following letter gives an intimate picture of the working out of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) campaign for greater safety, and a point of view not often considered. Manager, Standard Oil Cos., Wichita, Kansas. Dear Sir: I have been fighting the railroad battle for 30 years—as fireman ;ind engineer. Am now an engineer on the Santa Fe, running between Newton and Arkansas City. I take this means of letting the management of the Standard Oil Company know how much I appreciate the consideration your truck drivers give a man running an engine. It is such a relief to see your men stop a safe distance from the tracks and give us a highball, which seemingly is a small thing to do yet means so much to us. I thank you. Yours truly, \ H. G. Carson. This letter presents a peculiarly interesting point of view on the question of traffic safety—that of the train man who is often forced to play an unwilling part in tragic motoring accidents. The man who drives an engine over a prescribed pathway, according to prescribed schedule, must often share in the disaster caused by carelessness of a motorist who drives according to his own time and pleasure. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana") has been unusually successful in preventing such carelessness among its drivers, by its extensive and intensive safety campaign. All Standard Oil Company (Indiana) drivers are taught to recognise the ever-present dangers of motor, traffic. They are taught to respect the rights of others. i A Standard Oil Company (Indiana) driver does nos "take a chance” at a railroad crossing. He knows that the oncoming train has right of way. He knows that it is his duty to respect that right and to consider the other fellow. What this consideration means to the engineer of the train is shown in the above letter of appreciation. Extra caution at railroad crossings is a part of the program of extra carefulness that all Standard Oil Company (Indiana) drivers rigidly follow. They do more than obey traffic regulations to the letter, because they share the purpose for which the regulations were made —to prevent the deaths of innocent people—and they share the spirit of human sympathy and consideration which prompted their making., This spirit is to be expected of the loyal men of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) organization. They have learned to consider the rights, convenience, and safety of the other fellow first, as a working business principle, every day of the year. I The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) was created to serve the people of the Middle West. Its safety campaign is but an extension of this service which is resulting in a larger realization of its high purpose. Standard Oil Company ( Indiana) General Office: Standard Oil Building 910 So.

U.S. TO ISOLATE SELF EVEN MORE (Continued From Page 1) suggest that “big things” will result from the meetings. Meantime persons in touch with the Government charge the French debt funders failed to keep their understandings with this Government. These unaerstandings were for the French to explain to their own people something of the American side of the debt funding story. Such explanations, it was- assumed, would forestall outbursts. According to the UnltetU Press informants, this forestalling never was undertaken, and instead the French began backfires on Article 7 and other points which had been, tacitly ironed out in advance. Movements for a "Dawes plan" for France are stilled, at present. This Government has been given to that France just now does not consider such a degree of foreign control as this implies. She will not even permit the mortgaging or sale of her national tobacco monopoly, not to mention giving any other security for foreign aid. Complicating the situation for the Government from a purely internal political standpoint is the fact that debt funding opponents are now seizing on the situation to chorus “I told you so* and are predicting that ratification here will be made difficult. This sentiment was voiced by Senator Pat Harrison (Dem.), Mississippi, who charged that the Administration was only now admitting what its enemies had charged, namely, that actual war debts had virtually been canceled by the present agreements, leaving only post-armis-tice obligations yet to be fulfilled by Europe.” Senator Johnson, California irreconcilable. also attacked the Government's settlements, asset ting the United States had sacrificed mugh, especially in the Italian agreement.
