HEAT MAKES SHARP BREAK ON RUMORS CHICAGO, April 21. Sharp breaks in wheat prices resulted today largely :rom unconfirmed rumors of revolutionary outbreaks In Hungary and of disturbed conditions in Bulgaria. Reports of serious strike rioting In Germany also had a bearish effect and tended to give more credence to the Hungarian and Bulgarian rumors than would otherwise have been the case. Trade was light and the market easily influenced. Opening prices, which ranged from 44 decline to e advance with May at $2.32 to 2.33 and July at $1.98 to $2.01, were followed by rallies in some cases of SV&c, but then a drop that reached an extreme of 7c, the li-tter in September, which fell to $1.72 as again $1.80 soon after the .opening. Corn swayed with wheat. Fluctuations, however were less severe than in the leading cereal. After opening J4 to 44 c off the market recovered a little and then sagged again. Oats followed corn.- Changes kept, though, within narrow limits. Weakness of grain depressed provisions. On the breaks, lard was in demand. GRAIN Chictmo Futures WHEAT

Continuous Price Changes Mark Wheat Trade in Week Shattering Precedent

CHICAGO, April 21. Rapid and continuous sweeping price changes 'in the wheat market during the last week have exceeded all precedent. In spite of abolition of. Canadian duties on wheat and notwithstanding an appeal by the secretary of agriculture that congress authorize definite limits on food costs, the wheat market here this morning was lc to 15c higher than a week ago, largely because of reports of big purchases of future delivesies for entente government Interests.; . Compared also with a week ago, corn showed gains of 3 Vic to Sc; oats were off a shade to lc, and provisions varying from 5c decline to 35c advance. Abnormally active demand for flour counted at the outset as a powerful American Beet Sugar. 92. American Smelter, 98 4. Anaconda, 76. Atchison, 102. Bethlehem Steel, 124. Canadian Pacific, 161 M.

factor on the bull side of the wheat market, and there were exciting 'advances on the announcement . of a huge decrease in the United States weekly visible supply total, diminishing the aggregate to 19,300 bus. less than was the case a year ago. Tuesday, however, witnessed a break of as much as 144c chiefly because cf wild selling which resulted from making millions of bushels of Canadian wheat in the United States free of duty and apparently opened .the door for importing without limit wheat into this country from Canada, -, ' t; Other notable bearish, factors were big entente victories over f the - Germans in France, and so too, temporarily were reports afterward denied that a German submarine was operating near the American Atlantic coast.

HOARDING HYSTERIA DIMINISHES QUICKLY AND PRICES DECLINE CHICAGO, April 21. A belief that hysteria of the public in laying in supplies was rapidly diminishing was held accountable for a sharp recession in prices of wheat cn the board of trade today. Prices advanced, 2 cents right after the opening, but precipitate declines follow. May wheat dropped 10 cents to $2.28; July 5 3-4 cents to $1.96 and September 7 cents to $1.72; Subsequently backward selling carried May down to $2.28 a decline of 10 compared with top prices earlier. One authority said in this connection that hysteria in regard to laying in household supplies, was diminishing.; SECOND MIAMI STUDENT WILL GO TO FRANCE OXFORD, O., April 21. Carlos W.

Why The Lexington Way

Is I he Best Way : TJIHEN you hear about advantages of such TT- things as sixtcen-valvc engines, dual-power, or counter-balanced crankshafts, just remember this: They are only different a"nd round-about way of doing what is done directly and in the sim-r plest way by the Moore Multiple Exhaust System which you get as an exclusive feature with the i m ' -

-;f:;:-';:;$I285: . A gain of 22.8 more, usable power without increase of engine size and with less gasoline; more reserve power for hills apd heavy roads; less gear changing ; better throttle control ; morepower without excessive engine speed, vibration" and wear, are only a few of the distinctive advantages of the Lexington. A stylish, obedient, comfortable car that gives yoatai pleasure to drive and real pride to own, made in a factory -where there is always time to do things right and to hulld for service and not simply for sales this sums op the Lexington story. If there is one car yon can't affocd to orerlook : it's the LEXINGTON.
