In the Stock Market (By Thomson Ac McKinnon) NEW YORK, Feb. 13.—The failure of the New York Federal Reserve bank to make any announcement following its Monday meeting other than that no change had been ordered in the rediscount rate has temporarily removed speculative apprehension. It might be well, however, to draw attention to the views expressed by the economist of one of our leading banks. He points out that the recent warning of the reserve board should be given serious consideration and states that the board has not lost control of the money market as a great many suspect. Short covering Undoubtedly played a big part in Monday’s advance in prices and the technical position has been weakened accordingly. We would rather follow the policy of reducing long commitments on any further show of strength.

Another bill aimed at' the “unscrupulous” bootlegger was introduced in the senate late Tuesday by Senator Carl M. Gray, Petersburg, author of a former measure making it a felony to sell liquor to minors. The new bill would charge sellers of poison liquor, causing death, with involuntary manslaughter. A penalty of from two to ten years in Indiana state prison is provided. The penalty applies to anyone selling, giving or bartering any intoxicant causing death. Gray’s bill regarding sale of liquor to minors passed the senate. Senators Tuesday afternoon voted $25,000 annually for two years for Purdue university engineers to conduct a state-wide coal survey. They also passed three bills, introduced by Senator Alonzo H. Lindley, Kingman, putting safeguards around the building of school houses under the holding company plan provided for by statute in 1927. Originally the bills provided for complete repeal, but were amended to provide for review of the plans by the state tax commissioners upon petition of 10 per cent of the* taxpayers in the city, township or town where the school is to be built under the holding company plan. The holding company plans was devised to circumvent the 2 per cent constitutional taxing limit. It was backed by Senator Joseph M. Cravens, Madison, in 1927, so that Madison could replace a school destroyed by fire. He spoke in favor of the plan Tuesday and told what had been done there. Three bills were necessary to take in communities of varying population. All were passed without opposition.

STRONG OUTSIDE l MARKETS RAISE ORAINRITURES Bears Helped by Increasing Receipts; Trading Bullish. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 13.—Strong outside markets over the holiday caused wheat futures to advance sharply here today. Com and oats were up in sympathy. At the opening, wheat was % cent to 1% cent higher, corn was up 1 cent to 1% cents and oats were % cent to 1% cents higher. Provisions were considerably higher. Continued severe weather in Europe and reports of drouth from India advanced prices 1 cent to 114 cents at Liverpool Tuesday. The market was strong again today. Winnipeg gained 1% cents to 2 cents Tuesday. Firmness of foreign markets over the holiday, and news of exceptional disappearances, is increasing bullish sentiment among Chicago traders, who are beginning to feel American supplies may not be so burdensome as expected. Sentiment in corn is mixed, with most weight on the bear side because of increasing receipts. Over 1,300 cars have arrived at Chicago already this week. Oats have been very quiet because of activity in other pits. There is no change in the situation. Chicago Grain Table —Feb. 13— Prev. WHEAT— High. Low. 12:00. Close.
