WHEAT SHOWS FIRMER TONE; CORNIN LEAO Stubborn Resistance Keeps Futures Market From Going Lower. By United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 26.—Wheat showed a firm tone in a quiet market on the Board of Trade today. Moderate purchases strengthened com, oats were little changed. At the opening wheat was !4c to %c higher, corn was up tic to %c, and oats were unchanged to V&c off. Provisions were steady. Conservative traders see little opportunity on either side of the wheat market at present. The stubborn resistance shown to bearish influence has made many believe that th first favorable news will bring a sharp upturn. Pith most of the American and Canadian crops still unsold, a sudden increase in. export business might start a bullish demonstration. Corn appears to be taking the lead in speculative trading. Increasing arrivals of new corn have sent many traders to the selling side, while good export inquiry has stimulated buying. Industries are buying large „ quantities of the cash grain. Nothing new has appeared in the oats market. Trade consists mostly of changing from one delivery to another. Chicago Grain Table —Oct. 26 Pev. WHEAT— High. Low. 12:00. Close.

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—A wonderful statement of earnings by General Motors. That’s what you call real prosperity. Incidentally that’s why the stock sells at present price. If one knew what next year will show this problem would be easier. Don’t forget the word discount—the most important' word in Wall Streets Lexicon. Brokers loans that also was a wonderful statement. What comment may one make on this subject that would not be classed as trite? Every one knows its importance, but every one has been trained to ignore it. This is as good a morning as any to bring it to your attention more forcibly. We say don’t ignore it too long. A day will come and it may be close at hand when there will be some reckoning of the old fashioned, not the new era, sort. If it wasn’t for the oil group which continues, as the best part of the market, the list would have looked like one of the'' real bear sort. Don’t overlook a single opportunity to take dqwn some profits. COTTON OPENING By United rress NEW YORK. Oct. 26.—Cotton futures opened lower.

Average Stock Prices

Average of thirty industrials Thursday was 256.48, off .55. Average of twenty rails was 142.80, up .08. Average of forty bonds as 96.51, unchanged. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Pres* Financial Editor NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—Conflicting nev.’s brought irregularity into the stock market in early dealings today, changes, however, were only moderate and losses held ivithin a small range while a few issu'es made fair gains. Trading was on a smaller scale. General Motors responded to its earnings statement showing profits for the first niile months higher than any previous full calendar year in the company's history, United States Steel sold off slightly as did General Electric, while Du Pont, Radio and Western Union continued to gain. The increase of $107,900,000 in brokerage loans announced after the close yesterday, bringing the figure.to anew record at $4,772,293,000, unsettled the market to some extent, since a much smaller increase had been expected. The General Motors report showing earnings of $13.42 for the first nine months as against $12.99 for the entire record year of 1927, served to offset this in part. Several other favorable reports were Included in the day’s news, notably Dupont, Westinghouse Electric, Studebaker and Pennsylvania Railroad, all of which showed substantial gains over 1927. Items in the weekly federal reserve statement were litfle changed. Rediscounts decreased $23,900,000, but this was offset by an increase of $22,100,000 in bills bought in the open market. Reserves increased $8,900,000, bringing the ratio of reserves to deposits to 68 per cent for the system against 67.3 per cent in the previous week. The New York ratio increased to 71.4 per cent from 66.5 per cent. Investment buying continued in Western Union which soared to a new high at 186%, up 4%. New highs also were made by Kennecott, up 2% at 119%, Pure Oil up %, at 28%, and Shell Union Oil, up % at 31. Oils generally were in fair demand with Marland bid up on its favorable earnings report. Sinclair held steady. Rails were irregular with Union Pacific and MLssouri-Kansas-Texas in demand and Central and D & H selling lower. Montgomery Ward and Victor declined. Urges Church Pica to Youth No special effort is made to attract young people to the church and that is partially accountable for their loss of interest in the church, V. S. Sly, regional director of young people’s work for the United Christian Missionary society, declared in an address Thursday night at the weekly fellowship dinner of the Northwood Christian church.

INVITED? NOTH ALL, MRS. SMITH Charge Women’s Club With Cancelling Invitation. By United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—A luncheon invitation extended to Mrs. Alfred E. Smith has created an uncomfortable situation for the New York City Federation of Women’s Clubs. Several days ago the newspapers printed an announcement to the effect Mrs. Smith would be guest of honor at the federation’s convention and luncheon today at* the Hotel Astor. The Democratic national committee now claims the invitation has been withdrawn by Mrs. Harry H. Thomas. Although officially a nonpartisan organization, the federation has a membership understood to be predominantly Republican. More than 150,000 clubwomen are members. At Mrs. Thomas’ home it was said that the matter was due “to a mistake entirely on the part of the Democratic national committee” and that the federation was not giving a luncheon today.
