In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnonl NEW YORK, June 18.—While it has been apparent for the past few weeks that restrictive measures upon credit were gradually being eased, confirmation of the changed policy has been unobtainable until one of our leading bankers issued a statement this morning setting forth that the reserve wanted assurance that trade and industry would be the chief beneficiaries of a proposed easier money policy. Apparently the reserve has veered aroimd to the belief that frozen bond issues make up a substantial proportion of the so-called brokers’ loan and an easier money market would help the whole credit structure further if these bonds could be distributed among investors. Inasmuch as the credit question has been the single restraining influence upon the financial markets generally, it. is not surprising that the stock market has begun what appears to be a discounting process of more normal money rates. With general business Showing a higher ratio of operations than in any similar period in history. the whole background affords justification for continued optimism.

CROP REPORTS LOWER WHEAT PRICES IN PIT Corn Sells Fractionally Off; Oats Held Steady With Provisions. P.u / nili .I Pr-*.< CHICAGO. June 18.—Crop news again became a dominant factor in the wheat market, as prices here declined sharply in sympathy with Liverpool, which was depressed by general rains over the Canadian northwest the past two days. Corn followed wheat for fractional losses, but oats held steady. At the opening wheat was % to lc lower, corn was off to %c and oats were unchanged. Provisions were unchanged. Wheat traders would like to know how the new farm board will try to stabilize prices but. apparently feeling that it will take a long time for any progress to get under way, pay little attention to preliminary developments. The passage of the $151,500,00 appropriation by the house had no effect on the market. Selling of corn continues on the bulges due to more liberal offerings by the country. The movement from southwestern sections has been increased by farmers finding their old grain heating in the bins. Warm weather is bringing in more optimistic crop comments as cultivating makes rapid progress. A good part of the business in oats •consists in changing and spreading, but cash interests buy the July delivery on all breaks. Chicago Grain Table —June 18 — WHEAT Prev. Open. High.

At the Walker Theater

A letter proves to b the ail too thrilling and damaging part of one of the most dramatic sound pictures seen at the Walker this season. "The Letter" is the picture and Jeanne Eagels supplies the dramatics. The picture opened Sunday at the Walker, but had its heavy run Monday night, a bargain night in seats. Much yet is to be done to improve talking pictures, but the adventures and caprices of Jeannee Eagles are sufficient to make the average person overlook any mechanical defects. Wives clandestinely engaged in affairs such as are laid at the door of Mrs. Robert Crosby (Jeanne Eagels i may learn of the inevitable penalty of such conduct. The shooting of her paramour, the long and bitter trial and acquittal, the remorseful and dejected life following the presentation of "the letter" to her husband are strikingly portrayed. "Shopworn Ange!” will be the picture at the Walker for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Randall Young proved his mastery of the pipe organ at Monday night's performance. He has been engaged to givp special organ presentations each Monday night. ELKS DRIVE OPENS $34,000 Raised Before Campaign Officially Started.

She is Mrs. Henry Virkula. whose biggest problem right now is: “How can I go back to Big Falls, Minn., and run the confectionary business built* up by H#*yry, when everything about the place will remind me of him and his death?" All around her excitement prevails. Residents of this town are stirred to such an extent that they telegraphed President Herbert Hoover for relief from “oppression by federal officers." 17 Years of Happy Life Court battles are in prospect ovei the prosecut ion of Emmett J. White, customs patrolman, who killed hei husband. The state insists on his being tried in Koochiching county district court here. The government, which has spoken through Seymour Lowman, assistant secretary of treasury, wants White prosecuted in federal court, with United States attorneys defending him. To all of this Mrs. Virkula is cold as she comforts the two youngsters, Alice, 10, and Bernice, 8. The children marvel at their pictures in newspapers and want to know what it's all about. To her and to the children through her it's all part, of life in America, as she explains it.

For seventeen years we lived a happymarried life and although we were not wealthy, we made a comfortable living. And I was glad my children. Hke their father, were born here.

'He is the law. “He is representative, of that same law which gave us our happiness for seventeeen years. “My husband, his parents and brother John, with whom I am

living now, all voted dry at the last election.
