The money situation seemed to be curtailing operations and some were apprehensive lest the demand rates be advanced to 12 or 15 per cent. New interests taking over the express companies, according to dispatches today, brought out demand for those stocks. Adams Express advanced 25 points to anew high, at 415. Willys Overland came out in long strings on the tape, rising well above 30 for a gain of %. Other motor shares, with the exception of General Motors, were in demand. The entire market strengthened after the preliminary profit-taking had run its course.

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Dec. s.—How much good or how much harm to the stock market results from such fluctuations as we have been witnessing in Radio and Wright Aeroplane some may be bold enough to explain. The only conclusion that we can come to is in the hands of people who are not interested in the prosperity of the companies, out only in the position of these stocks in the stock market. Twenty points up and twenty down and up again do not signify prosperity and do not signify either present or future worth. It only signifies a market without a stabilizer, and one that calls for caution. We believe, with prosperity so general in the country, that great opportunities will be found in stocks that have not been very conspicuous in a speculative way. Look for a big market to develop before long in the railroads. NEW YORK COFFEE RANGE High. Low. Close.

GRAIN PRICES UNSTEADY AS TRADEWAITS Sentiment in Corn Bullish, but New Crop May Lower Values. By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. s.—Wheat was again listless on the Board of Trade today, taking no definite trend. Corn weakened on predictions of heavy shipments. Oats continued firm. At the opening wheat was lie of! to VsC up. Corn was unchanged to %c off, and oats were unchanged to I'b c up. Provisions were slightly lower. Sentiment in wheat is mixed, although the tendency toward the constructive side has improved. Traders expect no decided change in prices unless unexpected factors appear. Possible farm relief legisiat.on is a check on short selling. The northwest continues to sell on all bulges. Corn traders are mostly bullish, but there are many who predict lower prices when the new crop moves in volume. Cold weather in lowa, Indiana and Illinois favors shipping. Marketings of oats from the country have been disappointing and the cash market consequently has ruled strong. The market has been unusually active recently. Chicago Grain Table WHEAT— Prev.
