Vealers ruled 50 cents to mostly $1 lower, with the bulk sales at $11 and under and an extreme top of $11.50 paid sparingly. As hog supplies dwindled to starvation proportions, lower fresh pork quotations were again ignored and live prices shot further upward. A 15 cent advance here on weights scaling ahove 160 pounds, put the top at $9.85 for best 200 to 220pound averages. Lighter weights and pigs continued to find only a steady outlet. Packing sows were carried along at the upturn on medium and heavyweight hogs, spots showing 25-cent gains. Bulk of the good|g sows cleared at $8 to $8.50, a few extremes above and below this price | & range. Fat lambs were included in the generally improved tone to most classes of livestock, scoring another mostly 25 to 35-cent-advance.

1 Corn Firms on Export Buying

Despite Liquidation.

CHICAGO; March 4 (U. P.).—The Chicago wheat market turned lower today under continued pressure of liquidation and easiness in Liverpool.

on the Board of Trade was % to 5 cent lower, corn was % to % cent higher and oats were unchanged. Most of the selling was looked

o upon today as liquidation on ‘the part of overbought longs. Cash in-

terests were credited with some buying but not much. According to Broomhall the Russian wheat now being offered includes samples only of the best Russian grain. In 28 weeks the U. 8S. S. R. has cleared 34,000,000 bushels, Broomhall reported, and only an additional 6,000,000 bushels is believed available for export. The Minneapolis correspondent of a Chicago. grain house reported today that the moisture situation in the spring wheat area, while mot entirely satisfactorily, is however, greatly improved" over what it has been.at this time in past years. Some further snows in March and small spring rains, he said, will be ample to give the' crop a good start. Wheat receipts in Chicago were 30 cars. Corn prices firmed on scattered export buying ‘in the face of - commission house liquidation on July and May futures. Cash interests also were in the market. Corn receipts were 136 cars. ~

INDIAN RETAIL GROUP ATTACKS

U.S, PROFITS TAX

Association Assails Plan for ‘Punitive Taxation’ as Aiding Monopoly.

A new attack on the proposed Federal tax on profits of ‘closely-

launched today by the Associated Retailers of Indiana. The association declared businessmen favored an equitable plan to raise taxes, but were afraid of “punitive taxation.” Arbitrary Bracket Hit “It has been claimed that the tax

4 | was designed to retard the progress

of great corporations,” the associa tion said, “but the opposite may result, because a law of the nature proposed in this section would prevent sizeable competition to large corporations ever developing, since profits must be paid out rapidly and are not allowed to accumulate to help develop competition.” “Businessmen generally are not in opposition. to the. Federal Government imposing a graduated nominal tax on the first $25,000 of their corporate earnings as an aid to the small businesses. In fact, they favor this policy, but establishing an arbitrary bracket, or the socalled “third bracket,” does - not come within the scope of their approval. “They are aware of the difficulties entailed in the imposition of any kind of taxation. They realize that inequalities are bound to develop in certain instances where a tax is laid to levy against an entire class. These inequalities rarely can be developed until after a tax begins to operate, but in the .case of the mooted Title 1B the inequalities can be and were pointed out before the law was written.” . :

CHARGES DISMISSED IN GRAND JURY CASE

Nine men charged with receiving stolen goods were dismissed by. ithe Marion County Grand Jury today. They were arrested after Harry Sacks pleaded guilty to theft rom his employer. The men were Thomas Dillon, 744 S. Capitol Ave.,"Gordon Duckworth, Harry Kramer, John Brickley, 744 S. Capitol Ave., Harry Meredith, George Messner, 1042 S.

Owls Lose Out Stuffed Birds Won’t Do

To Scare Pigeons, «Sais Decides.

WLS are out as pigeon po=' lice. The State Conservation Department, after short tryouts yesterday with stuffed great horned wise birds, today said “no dice.” There is no question but that a fleet of live great horned owls would push the pigeons around a good deal and eventually get rid of them. But the Department said no great horned owl-would stay around buildings and that at best no more than one or two could be persuaded to live in University Park.

In the first place, the day city noises would give the owls galloping insomnia, which in itself would work to their disadvantage as pigeon police. In the second place they would dispase of no more than two pigeons each a day and at that rate the pigeons would be here a long time. The Conservation Department said it wasn’t its problem anyway and it would rather not hear anything more about it.
