LEGGE PREDICTS BETTER WHEAT SITUATION SOON Says Shortage of Corn Has Offset Overproduction of Other Grain. Bv United Prt* * WASHINGTON. Oct. 10.—Without advising any one to go long on wheat in the Chicago pit or otherwise to speculate In the market, Chairman Alexander Legge of the federal farm board predicts an improved wheat situation by January. He has not modified in any respect hls belief that the American wheat fanner must reduce acreage and eventually get out of the export market. So far as the export wheat market is concerned, Legge believes its trend is to be downward for some years because of overproduction. "But I want to tell you,” Legge said, "that the com shortage more than has offset the overproduction in any other grain. If we fed every bushel we have of barley, oats and wheat to livestock and poultry, we still couldn’t overcome that 800,000,000 bushel shortage of corn, “That feeding is going on right now. Its effect will not be apparent immediately. The figures traders look at in their market operations represent stocks of wheat in store at the great markets. There is other wheat in the country elevators and on farms. “I am told farmers in the com belt who put their wheat in country elevators after harvesting in the expectation of raising the normal com crop for feed now are hauling their own wheat back to their farms in southern Indiana, parts of Ohio and Illinois. “Sales for feeding are taking place from farm to farm. These operations do not register on the market because they are unreported. The stocks of grain in the big markets will be the last drawn upon. No one could have forecast three months ago that we would be so far on the way to solution of this year’s wheat overproduction problem at this time.” Legge’s advice to the farmer is to buy his wheat for feed now. face”bandit charges Four of Six Youths Indicted for Holdup at Frankfort.

WELL, BIG BILL TOSSES MEAN PARTYJNYWAY Celebrates 1871 Victory Over Fire With 50,000 Soldiers Field Guests. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 10.—There was a vast difference of opinion among Chicagoans and their newspapers today over Mayor William Hale Thompson’s celebration at Soldiers field commemorating victory over the great fire of Oct. 9, 1871, but upon one point all agreed—that It was a big party. Some newspapers, noiably the Tribune and News, accepted the celebration as the mayor's initial bid for re-election to a fourth term, an event which the News said would

be an even greater catastrophe than was the fire fifty-nine years ago. Other publications, notably those owned by William Randolph Hearst, who was the guest of honor at the anniversary celebration, hailed the show as a “patriotic upheaval” and as “the greatest and most impressive demonstration in the history of the city." Thompson himself described the celebration as “the biggest show Bill Thompson ever put over.” It was estimated that about 50,000 persons took part in the parade and demonstration. The Tribune said this number probably was disappointing to close observers of the *nayor’s political fortunes and indicated a belief mo6t of those present were police or members of the various bands, cavalry units and other organizations actually participating. The throng less than half-filled the stadium. Hearst, as the principal speaker, spoke of Thompson as "the greatest mayor Chicago ever had,” and

Thompson returned the compliment by calling Hearst “the greatest living American.” HOOVER LIKELY TO VISIT TEXAS Tremendous Crowds Promised in Lone Star State. Bu Scrioos-Hotcard Sctespooer Alliance WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. Although President Hoover contemplates no more speaking trips until after the election he may visit Texas during November, it was indicated at the White House today. Ever since he became President he has had a Texas visit in mind. Hoover returned to Washington
greatly cheered by the reception he received at King’s Mountain and other stops in North Carolina. At King’s Mountain, he faced his biggest audience since he became a national figure. He has been promised tremendous crowds in Texas, one of the southern states he carried in 1928. The suggested trip contemplates a speech in Dallas and probably a brief swing around the Texas circuit in eclude Ft. Worth, San Antonio and Houston. New Jersey established the first state highway department in 1891.
