Added Strength On City Marti£

Again taking their cue from higher fresh pork prices and light supplies, hog values showed further strength today, according to the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. While most points showed slight gains, trading locally was again on a generally steady basis, although several 5 to 10-cent premiums were

more easily obtainable on strictly |!

choice consignments. Top held at $950 for b est 160-to-180-pound butchers. Wednesday's levels also prevailed

on packing sows which bulked from |

$7 to 7.75, with fewer below $7.25.

Smooth lightweight sows held an |Bkiyn-M

$8 top, except for premiums of 5 to 10 cents on outstanding lots of hogs. Local killers were active buyers on a light supply of steers and yearlings at steady to strong prices, taking the crop from $6.75 to $8 on first

rounds. Only common off colored | S88

lots ranged downward to $6. All

grades of cows were in broad de- |g

mand and ruled strong to slightly higher as compared with previous advances this week and are cur-

BE

CHICAGO, Feb. 2¢ (U. P.— Wheat prices firmed {fractionally after the opening break today on the Chicago Board of Trade. At the end of the first hour wheat was 3% cent lower, corn was unchanged to % cent lower and oats were unchanged to 3% cent lower. Around 931% cents, wheat halted in its downward trend and began slowly to move toward the previous close. Demand, however, was only light on the breaks. Potential buyers have been inclined to wait for news of larger foreign takers of U. S. wheat. Receipts were 13 cars. Despite continued country offerings, the corn market was firm in light trading. ‘A little export business was reported early today. Receipts were 198 cars.

Nobody Home

Zog’s Sisters to Find All Eligible Bachelors Out of Town,

\

EW YORK, Feb. 24 (U. P.) — If it’s true what they say about the Princesses Zog, the three unmarried sisters of Albania’s king will be disappointed when they arrive here Monday. There isn’t a handful of eligible young bachelors in town and not enough hostesses-who-count to make a paragraph on the society

page. According to dispatches the Princesses—Maxhide, 26; Rubhije, 27, and Myzeyen, 29—would not refuse any introductions to young men of wealth who happened also to be single and 21. It is said King Zog, who himself plans to take a spouse of American ancestry, is pretty worried about their . spinsterhood. Most possible husbands here have gone to Florida or elsewhere and won't be back until spring. Sailing Baruch and Milton Holden are in Florida, Dan Topping is on a ‘round-the-world cruise, and Alfred Vanderbilt is ‘way out West somewhere. Other eligibles include a couple

. of Rockefellers, Alfred Clark, and

Woolworth and James Donahue, the latter now in Florida. That leaves Tommy Manville. But after spending a million or so to get rid of four wives, he has declared he will not under any circumetances take a fifth.

HOOSIER OIL FIRMS FIGHT RAIL CHARGES

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 (U. P.).— A complaint against railroad freight charges on shipments of gasoline 628 | and other petroleum products was filed today before the Interstate Commerce Commission by Indiana and Ohio oil interests. The companies which lodged the complaint were the Producers Oil, Inc., Indianapolis; the Producers Co-Op Oil Co. Inc, and the Producers Gas Market, Inc.,, Dayton, O. They named 17 major railroads in their complaint. The railroads, they stated, fixed a weight of 6.6 pounds a gallon on petroleum products shipments. They charged that this weight was substantially in excess of the actual weight.

MEAT DIET FAVORED BY EXPLORER HERE

Stefansson Says Arctic Trips Prove His Theory.

Vilhjalmur Stefansson, retired Arctic explorer, left Indianapolis today after he had addressed the Contemporary Club last night and talked on what he termed the ade vantages of a meat diet. Mr. Stefansson, who said people can call him Bill if it is any easier, lived on a meat diet in New York for a year, and lived on meat during all his exploration trips. It works in both climates, he said, - and maintains the body in tone. ‘He pointed out that man was a hunter long before he was a gare dener, and thus survived solely on meat many years before he began - to grow and eat vegetables. -However, Dr. Stefansson said he does not necessarily have to have any meat at all in his diet. He eats, he said, whatever there is available to eat. Dr. Stefansson said he was glad to have accomplished his exploration trips in the days when they were done with dog team and not airplanes. It was more romantic, he said. ;
