,b> Thomson Jk McKinnon) NEW YORK. May 7.—'The unexpected advance in call money rates just when the impression was growing tiiat lower rates were imminent finds ready explanation in tire statement of one of our leading financial journals that the recent increase in security loans has moved reserve authorities to apply addi- ; lonal pressure. The statement goes <m lo say that several leading institutions have made it known that they are completely loaned up and are reluctant to resort to rediscounting. This seems most unfortunate, coining as it does at a time when almost every other factor entering into investment considerations is of a cheerful nature. With any encouragement from the money market we think the rails and the oils are in a position to make the best response, but can see little even in those while present conditions prevail.

WHEAT CROP TO RUN ABOUT THE SAME AS 1928 Total of 903 Million Bushel Produced Last Year; Export Heavy. Bit ( nited Press WASHINGTON. May 7. With elevators choked with wheat farmers this year, probably will harvest about the same acreage as that which produced last year’s bumper crop, according to the department of agriculture. A total of 903,000,000 bushels was produced on approximately 58,000,000 acres of land last year. The five-year average crop is 307,000,000 bushels. Winter wheat farmers last fall planted 43,228,000 acres of wheat, the department has learned. Usually about 12 per cent of the winter acreage is ruined by winter weather and never harvested. This “abandonment,” however, was slightly less than usual last winter, so it is expected nearly 39,000.000 acres of winter wheat will be harvested. Spring wheat farmers indicated in reports to the department that they intended to plant 20,979.000 acres. The department has consistently advised caution in spring planting, asking farmers to watch the April reports of winter wheat condition before planting large acreages. Tha farmers were advised that heavy spring planting might produce an exportable surplus of the lower grades of spring wheat. They were also advised that winter wheat is expected to make at least 570,000,000 bushels. It is too early yet to determine what effect the warnings have had, however. Stocks of wheat in the country on April 1. with the 1929 crop but three months off, were 410.000,000 bushels, or almost half last year's crop. On April 1, 1928, the country’s stock was 292,000.000 bushels, or an increase in the year of 118,000,000 bushels. Exports, which the administration and the railroads have sought to encourage by cutting freight rates on wheat for export, have been unusually heavy so far this year. Wheat and flour exported was worth $75,782,000 during the first three months of 1929, against exports of $57,457,000 worth during the same period of 1928.

SHARP DECLINES ABROAD FORCE WHEAT LOWER Corn Was Weak in Sympathy: Oats Resist Bullish Trading. Bp ( nited Press CHICAGO. May declines at Liverpool and Buenos Aires caused wheat futures to touch new low levels in the opening sales here today. Corn was weak in sympathy with wheat, but oats showed good resistance in the bullish trading. At the opening wheat was % to l%c lower, corn was off \ to r %c and oats were Tc lower to %c higher. Provisions were little changed.

Buying in wheat is almost entirely by those who sold at higher levels and are now taking profits. Sentiment so completely bearish that some traders pronounce tlie short side dangerous as entrance of any sustaining factor should find market heavily oversold. Foreign importers are holding back awaiting developments and congestion at eastern position is becoming grave. Montreal reports seventy-six lake boats tied up and elevator space crowded. Selling of com against purchases of wheat continue on relief that difference between two grains is too narrow and corn must decline or wheat advance. Lower levels has had a tendency to increase the cash demand as quality is excellent. Although weather is still unfavorable for resumption of oats seeding, action in major grains is carrying futures to a lower range of values.

Walker Theater Review

Irvin C. Miller is a capable producer of Negro shows of the right sort, but he aid not send his best production to the Walker Monday night. The 1929 “Brown Skin Models” effort of this popular showman compares only in spots with the artistry seen from this producer in other years. With a single exception, no act was put over with zeal to entertain the capacity house. We are wondering if the producers of the country have formed some sort of conspiracy to furnish Indianapolis with only the mediocre shows. Facts that the producers themselves have shown us recently indicate a radical change. The -asides'' used in Monday night's sho-' arc not of the t;. pe calculated to win support of the Indianapolis theatergoers. There might be a bit of comedy for a few, but the rank levee vernacular especially used by Marcellus Sherrod and Eva Metcalf Just did not take. The show lacks good voices and a quality of music that well might enhance the charm of ;evera! of the model scenes. Models of this type deserve to be paraded in a flare of voluptuous airs. Jackie Mabiys singing in a unique ' Sonny Boy' feature is easily the big attraction oi the bill. Scenes and costumes of this show are of the better type. William Haines in “Alias Jlmy Valentine” is the screen play until Wednesday night. The Fy;ag Fleet,” starring Roman Novarro. will be the picture Thursd—. r-<' • r

PRISONER SAYS TWO PLOTTED TO TAKE HOME Bondsman and Lawyer Are Hit in Charges in Court. Solicitation by a professional bondsman while he was in the city jail and the bondsman’s promise to get an attorney “who would get him cut,” were charged today by William O. Marley, 60. state prison inmate, who is seeking return of real estate which, he alleges, was fraudulently taken from him. Marley took the stand before Superior Judge William O. Dunlavy and said that when he was arrested Aug. 5, 1927. on a statutory charge, Eli Gmil. professional bondsman, offered to go his bond and to obtain the services of Lawrence A. Shaw, local attorney. Dunlavy continued the case until Wednesday when Shaw will appear. Came to Jail “Gmil came to the station house and asked me if I wanted to get out on bond,’’ Marley testified. ’He told me that he had had a similar case before and knew an attorney who could get me out of it. He took me to Shaw.” Marley testified he borrowed money from friends and a bank to pay the bondsman and later signed several documents which, he declared. Shaw and Gmil told him were “papers to be used in the case.” “I found out in March, 1928, after I was in prison, that one of the papers was a deed to my house at 1037 South Alabama street and the other was a mortgage.” he said. He testified he was married and had discussed the mortgage proposition with the men, but said his wife would have to approve it. The deed record, read in court, and purported to be signed by Marley and naming Gmil with Shaw as notary public, stated that Marley was not married. Wife Is Witness Mrs. Marley testified she knew nothing of her husband signing over the deed to either of the men. Marley could not identify the signature on the documents, declaring it is “similar to mine.” Gmil testified that Marley was informed of the move and that he loaned Marley SI,OOO on the mortgage and deed.
