GRAIN OPTIONS MOVE UPWARD BEFORE CLOSE Rust Reports Cause Shorts to Cover; Corn, Oats Follow Wheat. Bu L nitfd Prrtt CHICAGO, July B.— Wheat developed strength in the latter part of the session on the Board of Trade today and closed sharply higher. Shorts covered freely on reports of rust in the Dakotas and the intensive heat from the spring wheat section. . . .. After setting new lows at tne start the market reversed itself and climbed steadily during the rest of the session. Com had independent strength, but advanced with wheat while oats was rather uncertain. Liverpool Recovers At the close wheat was % to 1% cents high, corn was % to 1% cents higher and oats was hi cent higher. Provisions were firm. Liverpool recovered before the close and at the last was 1 to IV* cent lower. Some reports of black rust are coming from the spring wheat belt, but it is too early for any damage. Exporters claim more business is being worked than is getting out to the trade. Cash prices were Vi cent lower. Receipts were 12 cars. Com Rallies Corn recovered fully with wheat and continued to advance, holding fractional gains at midsession. The general selling at the start sent December to anew low at 6674 cents. Receipts at forty-six cars were the lowest in months. Reports from sections of the belt indicate that the weather is too warm for proper growth. Cash prices were unchanged. Oats followed the major grains, hitting new lows in July and December at the start and rallying later. July at the bottom was 32% cents and December 3874 cents. Trade was very light. Cash prices were unchanged. Receipts were ten cars. Chicago Grain Table —July 8 — WHEAT— .. „„ Prev.. High. Low. 11:00 close.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, July B.—ls one is looking for the usual trade factors for a cue of any turn in the industrial outlook, little encouragement is to be obtained, nor is there much likelihood that any change may be looked f:r the balance of this month, which is normally marked for seasonal business slackening. All of tnis, however, is pretty well taken into count. The most disquieting factor to be faced is the apparent inability of commodities to maintain the stable level of values. Aside from the inventories of farm products, supplies of raw materials in the hands of manufacturers and wholesalers must be materially reduced, if not virtually nonexistent Inasmuch as a seasonal pick up, at least in industry, is to be anticipated in a matter of few weeks, and considering the liquidated condition of the stock market, regardless of the present depressed state of industry we feel the changes are all in favor of the bulls.

K OKLAHOMA CITY, July 8 Veteran politicians whose names flashed across newspaper front pages of yesterday are asking Oklahoma voters to return them to office this year. Five of Oklahoma's seven former governors and one former United States senator have tossed their hats into the state’s political arena. Four of the s te’s former chief! executives are seeking the senatorial toga that now belongs t-o W. B. Pine, Republican, who is almost certain to be renominated by his party. Two of those running for the senate have been impeached and ousted from the governorship. An attempt was made to impeach the third. The fourth managed to , serve his complete term without the state’s usual volcanic political outburst. Walton Is Independent Henry S. Johnston, Perry, selfstyled “small town lawyer,” and J, C. (Jack) Walton, who became famous for his inaugural barbecue at which thousands were entertained, • are the two senatorial candidates who, as Governor, allowed an unruly legislature to wrest the reins of the state government from their hands. Johnston seeks the Democratic nomination. Walton is running as an independent. J. B. A. Robertson, who missed impeachment by a narrow margin, is entered on the Democratic ticket and *is advocating repeal of the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead law. The fourth former Governor in the race is Lee Cruce, Ardmore, a quiet man, who believes a quiet campaign will net the necessary votes to bring him the Democratic nomination. Prohibition Favored Another veteran office holder entered in the senatorial derby is former Senator Thomas P. Gore, nationally known for his oratorical ability. Characterized for years as “the blind senator from Oklahoma," Gore has the faculty of conducting a whirlwind type of campaign that is certain to make him a formidable candidate. Other Democratic senatorial candidates include Charles J. Wrightsman, Tulsa oil millionaire, and Mrs. Katheryn Van Leuven, who once served as assistant attorneygeneral. All candidates, except Robertson, favor prohibition and a tariff on oil. TWO CLAIM RIGHT TO WEAR MARSHAL STAR Ravenswood Aspirant Arrested fox* Impersonating Officer.
