MARKET

CORN PRICES JUMP ON CHICAGO MART

(By Associated Pre CHICAGO. May 13. Buying on the part of leading commission houseB gave an upward swing today to the corn market." Apparently, recent declines were assumed to have more than discounted bearish aspects of the crop outlook. Shorts covered freely on the advance. Opening prices, which varied Irom unchanged figures to c off. with May 127 and July 142V4 to 143, were followed by sharp gains in the July delivery to well above Saturday's finish. Oats fluctuated with corn. The chief demand came from shorts. After opening unchanged to c lower, with July 64 to 65, the market scored a decided advance. Veakne3s in bog quotations depressed provisions. There was a notable lack of aggressive support.

"Finely built, clean looking troops," says the Sunday Herald. "They made an excellent impression. Everywhere they were enthusiastically welcomed As one broad-shouldered giant said, 'Your people's hearts seem as big as the streets are broad.

(By Associated Tress? LONDON, May 13. The appearance of American national army men on parade in the streets of London yesterday arounsed the enthusiasm of the Sunday papers as have few events in many months. The writers unite in giving unstinted praise to the appearance of the men and predict for them when they reach the front. "Since the thrilling days of the first months of the war," says the Observer "London has not known such a notable scene of enthusiasm a3 'hat evoked

yesterday. 'The finest sight I have seen since the war began,' was the verdict of a young soldier who has seen service on four fronts. j "The men are a fine looking body, and appear to be in the pink of condition. The companies filed past with light, elastic step, keeping excellent time and creating a mighty favorable Impression of their marching qualities and physique." Cheers From the Women. "Londoners cheered yesterday as they have not cheered for many months," says Lloyd's Weekly News. "From the moment when the first battalion detrained to the last minute farewell when the crowd called out. 'Come back soon!' the day was one of heartening friendliness. "It was the women who gave the Americans a special welcome. 'God bless you!' they cried all along the

route. Mothers lifted thjir children that they might have a sight of the soldiers from across the sea who were going to fight side by side with daddy. "And the waiting crowds found a new name for the visitors. As the first battalion swung out from the Waterloo station some one called to a friond that they were 'a real husky lot.' The words pleased the fancy of the crowd and soon everyone was calling for cheers for 'the huskies.' Real Friendship Shown "It was a great friendship which was struck up betwen the London

crowd and the American boys who have come across to give them a hand. ;

That was the feling that persisted to! the last when the visitors said goodbye for the time being in London." I

The Weekly Dispatch prints a letter written home by an American soldier yesterday describing the day's proceedings, of which the following is an extract: "The whole march gave one a sort of at home feeling. I think that was the biggest thing about it if you ask me that they should want us to feel at home. Some of the fellows say it was the biggest moment they ever hope to have, standing there in front of the palace. What it made me feel was that we are all in together." All Want to Help Them. Frederic Wise, in the Weekly Dispatch, says that as an American he knows that every man in the regiment felt it was the happiest and most memorable event in his life. He adds that the Dispatch has received a sheaf of letters from all over Great Britain with countless schemes for organized hospitality to the American troops. "Whether good or bad," he says,
