MEYER-KISER REALTY DEALS TO BE PROBED Records to Be Introduced in Circuit Court on May 17. Records and other evidence showing operation of the Meyer-Kiser bank realty department will be introduced in circuit court when a receivership hearing on Pilgrim Properties, Inc., is resumed May 17, according to Sidney S. Horn, attorney. At the conclusion of evidence Monday, Horn requested the continuance in order to obtain data from Thomas E. Garvin, new receiver, regarding operations. The property firm was organized by former officials of thfc bank, who sold 17,000 common stock shares at $25 par value, retaining only a few shares to enable them to fill directorate and other offices, according to court testimony. Suspension of operation, in all departments of the bank has been announced by Garvin. During the eighteen months’ liquidation by J. J. Kiser, M. S. Cohn, and Ferd Meyer, former officers, a number of the departments continued in operation, Garvin said.

GRAIN FUTURES MOVE OFF ON LIGHTJSELLING Corn Regarded as Weather Market With Rain Chief Factor. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. May 9.—Wheat settled lower in the corrective reaction at opening of the Board of Trade today, showing a -S cent to 1% cents drop from Monday's final figures. The September future bore the brunt of the selling and was off 1 to 1% cents. Corn, recently strong in view of too generous rains, followed the decline in wheat and opened off % to 1% cents. Oats Options Strong Oats started with an independent showing of strength, opening unchanged to % cent down; rye was off 1% cents and provisions were lower. The reactionary tendency in both security and grain markets has turned wheat sentiment slightly bearish and as a consequence the trend of prices has been irregular. Sterling, which opened at $3.94 at London, was off sharply with no apparent news on this side to explain the decline. Liverpool wheat, starting the day % pence lower, was very weak. Rains Affect Corn Corn is regarded .largely as a weather market with surplus rain falling in the area of leading producers. A week or more is needed, even should the precipitation cease, before the work can be continued. The cash demand remains good. Oats did not reach new highs on the futures Monday, as did corn before falling off, but the grain showed strength.

—Dietz on Science— HURRICANE IS YEARLY EVENT FORjFLORIDA Total of 46 Storms Swept State in 45 Years, Says Bureau. BY DAVID DIETZ Scrioos-Howard Science Editor The state of Florida verages about one hurricane a year, according to statistics collected by Richard W. Gray of United States weather bureau in Miami. Gray reports that in the 45-year period ending with 1939, forty-six tropical cyclones either moved inland over Florida, or passed near enough to cause damaging winds in the coastal regions of the state. Os the forty-six storms, thirtyseven were severe enough to be classed as hurricanes. The other nine were either less than hurricane intensity or doubtful as to hurricane intensity. The average occurrence of hurricanes is less than one a year for any particular locality in the state, and different localities show different averages. The chance for a hurricane on any 100-mile section of the eastern coast line of Florida is about one in twenty years. The chances are a little higher for a similar section of th£ western coast line, the average there being about one storm in 13.9 years. Tampa Nearly Exempt Tampa. Gary says, has been more nearly exempt from hurricanes during the last forty-five years than any other city in southern Florida. Key West, on account of its exposed location in the Florida Straits, and Pensacola, on account of Its exposed position to western Caribbean storms, have experienced more hurricanes than any other section of the state. Contrary to popular belief, more hurricanes have occurred in Florida in October than in any other month. Gray says. This is true in spite of the fact that no hurricane has passed inland over the east coast of Florida during October in the last fifty-one; years. “All October storms either have tsruck the west or extreme south coasts, or have recurved to the norteastward off the lower east coast,” he says. Develop in Caribbean “The> decided tendency for tropical cyclones to develop over the western Caribbean sea near the end of the hurricane season is shown by the fact that, of twentyone Florida storms that had their origin in the western Caribbean in the last forty-five years, twelve occurred in October, and two in November. “One of these was the famous ‘loop’ hurricane of October, 1910, that twice swept over Key West and Havana. “The most belated tropical cyclone of record to reach the coafit of the United States developed over the western Caribbean and moved ncjrtheastward through the Yucatan channel, to the extreme lower west coast of Florida, where it passed inland on Nov. 30, 1925. It passed off the upper coast of Florida on Dec. 1. Rains Are Excessive This storm was attended by winds of hurricane force on the extreme lower west coast and by excessive rains throughout the peninsula. The forty-six storms during the last forty-five years were divided by months as follow's: Five in June, three in July, seven in August, thirteen in September, sixteen in October and two in November. Just as many scientists believe buildings can be built in California to resist earthquakes, so Gray thinks that hurricanes can be successfully resisted in Florida. “If in addition to the proper construction, all windows, doors and vents are protected by storm shutters, the building should withstand strong hurricane winds with practically no damage. “Such a building can be constructed at only a moderate increase of cost above that for the usual type of construction, and the saving in storm insurance will repay the extra cost in a few years’ time.”
