WHEAT SHOWS GOOD GAINS ON INTENSE COLD Serious Damage Predicted in All Sections of Grain Belt. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Feb. 9.—Wheat opened ■% cent higher on the Board of ! Trade today under a continuation of S the weather market. The intense ! cold that has settled over the entire country east of the Rocky Mountains has led to grave fears for i the winter crops of all grains. In addition, Liverpool cables were j unexpectedly strong with millers ! buying and stocks were higher. Corn was U cent higher with wheat and oats and rye were 4 cent higher. Provisions were steady. Activity was limited in the minor grains. The cold wave now extends over the central and southwest and to the Atlantic coast, embracing both the hard and soft winter wheat belt. Leading crop observers state that it can hardly be hoped that the grain now in the ground will escape serious damage as snow covering is very inadequate. Liverpool and Buenos Aires were higher, the former being to \ cent up at mid-afternoon. Offerings of corn by the country have dwilndled almost to nothing. However, the eastern cash demand is very light. Oats is firming up, as it is regarded as likely that the cold in the southwest will injure the crop in the ground.

53 DEATHS IN TOLL OF COLD THROUGH NATION Arctic Wave Spreads Over South and East to Cover U. S. (Continued from Page One) east, but in Utah anew blizzard developed late Wednesday and travel in the inter-mountain section was handicapped. Many towns were reported marooned. Unseasonable warmth along the eastern seaboard Wednesday gave way to cold during the night, with temperature drops of fifty degrees in twelve hours in New York City and elsewhere. From a record high of 63 at 2 p. m. Wednesday, the temperature plunged below i4. according to unofficial readings, here early today. In the midwest and the Rocky mountain states, the cold remained far more severe than in the east. Snow had stopped over most of the western territory, except in the intermountain section, but temperatures in some sections dropped even lower Wednesday night than they had the night before. Zero Weather Takes Toll In the Chicago area, where fifteen deaths had been reported, thermometers registered below zero. In Kansas City it was 6 below soon after midnight, and getting colder. Butte. Mont., reported 31 below; Denver, 16 below; most of Wyoming up to 30 below, and Basin, Mont., 43 below. In the west the cold was expected to last for at least another day, and in the east longer. Memphis, Birmingham and other southern cities, unaccustomed to low temperatures, reported great suffering as the mercury dropped toward zero. Only in semi-tropical resort areas of the extreme south was freezing weather escaped. Cotton experts believed the cold would kill boll weevils and fruit insects, improving crop prospects. Peach Crop Damaged The southwest Arkansas peach crop was believed badly damaged. The trees had budded before the cold set in. In addition to fifteen deaths in the Chicago area, the following fatalities were reported from exposure or from wrecks and fires attributed to the extreme weather: •Canada, 7; Missouri, 3; Oklahoma, 3; Texas, 2; Indiana, 2; lowa, 2; California, Oregon, Montana, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, each one. Iu Aurora, Mo., citizens planned to seek a Carnegie medal for Elizabeth Williams, 13, who fought through deep snow with the temperature at 10 below to summon help for two schoolmates overcome by cold. SUPS; CRITICALLY HURT Falls Under Auto, Suffers Fractured Skull; Driver Not Held. Falling beneath an automobile when he slipped on ice-covered pavement at North street and Capitol avenue Wednesday afternoon, George Young, 52.
