STEADY BUYING SENDS FUTURE PRICESUPWARD Dry Weather, Strong Cable News Influences All Grains. BY HAROLD E. RAIXYILLE L'nited Pres* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, April 7.—Advancing grain prices were materially slowed up but changed on the Board of Trade today, wheat opening •!, to 7 s cent higher. There was good buying on the dry weather in the southwest and on the stronger cables than expected, but inflation talk was not so prominent. Corn advanced with wheat, being ’i to % cent higher, with rye unchanged. Provisions were stronger but slow© Trading was not as active at the start but selling was limited and scattered purchases were sufficient to advance levels. Increasing talk of inflation overshadows all other factors in the grain pits but important influences along routine lines were not lacking. The advance of 6"i to 7% cents in the last few weeks has been accompanied by an increase in volume of transactions from 15.000,000 bushels, the February average, to 54.000.000 bushels on Wednesday. Liverpool was % to Vi cent higher at mid-afternoon. Corn is ruling equally as strong as wheat. The cash demand is good and prices are advancing steadily, showing around 13 cents over recent levels. Oats prices are rising in sympathy with the other grains and on the delayed seeding season. Cash oats was selling at 22% cents on Thursday, compared with 15 cents in February.

Rise of 25Per Cent in Price Level Forecast for 1933
Administration Policies Will Boost Levels, Is Prediction. The average price level of commodities and general merchandise will be fully 25 per cent higher than current levels before the end of the year, ip the opinion of the Textile Organon, published today by the Tubize Chatillon Corporation. "This prediction." it was pointed out, “is based on the premises that the new administration is committed to higher prices and that there is an intangible lower limit' of deflation. “The higher prices,” the publication added, “will come about, obviously by natural or by artificial means. The natural method would result from an increased demand for goods, improved business activity and declining unemployment. So far. this result has not been obtained. although it is still too early to judge of the future. After all. the banks have only been open about three weeks and the unclogging of credit and business must take time. RESIGNS INSURANCE POS Connecticut General to Open Branch Office Here. L. D.

EXPERTS TASTE 800 VARIETIES OF WINE Only Few Drops of Each Is Sampled in French Contest. EPINAY, France, April 7.—With 800 different varieties of champagne to be tasted, experts here admitted that they actually drank only a few drops. More champagne was sampled—and less consumed—when the wine growers here gave a “champagne fair" than at any time in recent years. Prizes were awarded, according to the judgment of the official tasters, and the 1932 vintage generally was considered to have “brought home the bacon." Champagne of 1932, however, is begging on the market. The average price to dealers for the new champagne was S6O for a unit of 200 quarts. Anew way of qualifying champagne proposed is to ally the name of champagne with the name of the small commune in which the vintage grows. There are dozens of different champagnes and red sparkling wines from the same region. 785 ARE LIFE CONVICTS Texas Jails House Hundreds Who Will Die in Prison. By United Press HUNTSVILLE. Tex..

PROFITS WOULD BE ELIMINATED BY NEW TRUST Overhead Only Expense in Projected Investment Unit. By T<mf Special NEW YORK. April 7.—Frank A. Vanderhp. financier, formerly head of the National City bank, has plans drawn for a giant investment trust to be run along almost philanthropic lines, it was learned today. No date has been set for the launching of the enterprise, but it is quite probable that it will begin to function when Vanderhp ail his associates decide that the time is opportune. The idea has been in Mr. Vanderlip's mind for many years, close friends of his say. and he has made no secret of his theories as to how an investment trust should be organized and operated. Vanderlip’s investment trust would be operated almost like a mutual savings bank with a board of direc* tors picked from the ranks of prominent men having absolutely no interest in the creation or distribution of securities. It would be run on a cost basis, with no charge levied against investors except their share of the overhead. This trust would sell its certificates to the smaller investors but, as it would not be run for profit, there would be no sales pressure in connection with the distribution of the certificates. It is believed that such an investment trust would soon grow into the billion-dollar class. Participants would not be encouraged to buy the certificates with the idea of making large profits. The trust would make regular statements of its portfolio and a regular market would be maintained for its certificates. John J. Rascob in 1929 announced that he was working on plans for an enormous investment trust that would guarantee the safety of investments for the working classes, but the plan never materialized.
