WHEAT LEADS GRAINS UP IN BUYING WAVE Spurt Is Based on Decline in Farm Board's Holdings. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE Lnited Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. April 3.—September wheat led to a ' 2 to l’s cents upturn in the wheat pit on the Board of Trade today on a buying spurt based on the government's report of its wheat holdings. There was little else in the news. Stocks were firm, as was Liverpool. The latter market was dull, but responded slightly to bullish weekly statistics. Corn was % to cent higher, September showing the most strengtn. Oats was unchanged and rye was ! 4 cent higher. Provisions were steady. Present farm board wheat holdings as given out Saturday are slightly in excess of the amount estimated, but have been reduced around 18,000,000 bushels to approximately 12,000,000 bushels in a month. The Idea that inflation will follow the enactment of the farm bill still 'is the chief buying stimulus. Liverpool was firm, Is cent higher at mid-afternoon but did not follow the upturn here on Saturday. • The buying movement in wheat has spread to corn, but not with the same force. The country is holding back except on good bulges in futures. The revived cash demand for oats combined with inflation talk has led to buying in oats futures.

Accurate Information Is Labor Secretary's Goal

Frances Perkins Outlines New Methods for U. S. Department. By Scripi>*-Hoicard yacspnpcr Alljancc WASHINGTON, April 3.— The integrity of information on employment. pay rolls, wages and cost of living, collected and given out by the department of labor, is the first concern of its new secretary, Frances Perkins. The department has been accused, in the past, of providing figures to suit the political needs of the administration in power. Ways and means of placing the department above all such suspicion have engaged a major part of the attention of Secretary Perkins during her first month in office, and will continue to do so for a considerable time to come. She has appealed to the American Statistical Society for advice and help which has been promised. She has revised the form in which monthly employment figures are to | be given out. Present Studies Inaccurate She has asked bureau heads to work out plans for a statistical study of wages since "whit we have now are not reliable,” and she has put an end to monthly reports heretofore made by the federal employment service since these "are not, never have been and never can be a complete and reliable picture of employment conditions.” These last reports were used extensively by former Secretary of Labor Doak and former President Hoover during the past year to indicate "an upswing” in the industrial condition of the country. Secretary Perkins delayed publication of employment figures for February until she could completely revise the manner in which they were to be made public, and when they were finally ready she took the trouble to explain their significance carefully to newspaper reporters gathered for that purpose. Averages Show Increase Employment and pay roll averages both showed a slight increase in February, but Secretary Perkins made no attempt to draw from these an optimistic inference concerning the economic condition of the country. Instead, she emphasized in her decisive manner, going over the point again and again to make it unmistakably clear, that the improvement shown last month is a normal seasonal manifestation, and that any improvement which may be shown in March will be seasonal likewise. In February employment increased 1.6 per cent over January as against an average of 1.4 per cent increase each February during the last ten years. Pay rolls increased 1.7 per cent as against an average increase during the same period of 4.9 per cent. The February employment index is 4.2 per cent above the low point of last July, but its index number ot 57.5 is still far below the index of employment last February—6s.6. Pay rolls reached their lowest point in January, 1933, and the small seasonal recovery leaves them far below the level of a year ago. The index number for pay rolls was 36.4 last month and 49.6 in February a year ago.

AUTO DEALER PREDICTS NEW PROSPERITY ERA New Car Sales Said to Prove Return of Confidence. "With opening of banks throughout the country and the dispelling of fear, the return of confidence already is being reflected in the sale of new Ford cars." As the oldest Ford dealer in Indianapolis, C. o. Warnock of C. O.

Warnock & Cos.. 819 East Washington street, expressed an encouraging note thus. "Not since 1929 has there been such a sincere feeling of optimism through the country. From my sixteen years’ experience in the Ford business, I firmly believe we are prepared to embark upon a period of protract-

SUIT IS STEP TO REORGANIZE LIMESTONE CO. Ten Million-Dollar Firm Proposes to Pare Down Fixp.d Charges. Formal s(ep in reorganization of the Bloomington Limestone Company. a ten r.iirion-dollar firm, was taken Saturday with filing of a suit in federal court to foreclose the first mortgage on its properties. The bill in equity was filed by the Central Trust Company and Arthur T. Leonard, trustee, of Chicago, under the first moragege trust indenture. Attorneys explained the reorganization plan proposes to scale down fixed charges of the company, in view of present conditions in the construction field. A substantial number of bondholders already have agreed to the reorganization plan, according to William Wilms, chairman of the board of directors.

The reorganization plan contemplates "substantial preservation of the first lien for the bondholders, setting aside certain properties for their sole benefit and relaxing rate of interest on fund debt for a time, and the Issuance of common stock to the present preferred stockholders,” attorneys explained.
