WEAKNESS SHOWN IN CORN MARKET
CHICAGO. July 30 Corn developed weakness today, influenced by better weather and by reports that relations between Turkey and Germany had been severed. Absence of confirmation, however, of the reports of such a severance led to something of a rally, and so too did the less encouraging tenor of the war news. Trading lacked volume. Opening prices, which ranged from 1-8 to 5-8 lower with August $1.52 and Sept $1,53 5-8 to $1.53-3-4, were followed by a further setback and then by reaction. Oats went down grade with corn. Larger receipts from the new crop tended also to depress the market. After opening 1-8 to 5-8 down prices continued to weaken. Strength of the hog market rallied provisions. Ajt first, slight declines had taken place in sympathy with grain.

BOARD TO INSTRUCT SELECTS APPOINTED
Joshua Allen. Myron Malsby, R. B. Jones, Jenkins and Flora Mae Green have been appointed by the Selective Service Board of Wayne county to serve on the committee which shall be known as the Board of Instruction, and which shall work under the direction of the Selective Service Board. This committee was appointed under Instructions received from the office of the Provost Marshal General. The object of this new work as outlined in the instructions received is to put the Selective Service men into camp willing, loyal, intelligent, clean and sober and thus to fit them better for rapid progress in becoming good soldiers. This is to be accomplished by systematic personal Instructions given beforehand to each selective by members of the Board of Instructions.
ENEMY THROWS
Continued From Page One.l rian division, both units known as "shock troops." Six times the village changed hands and at last reports it was in the hand of the Americans. Several times the Germans forced the Americans back to the Ourcq, which is shallow here, and hand to hand fighting took place in the water. Southeast of Sergy, the allies occupied Roncheres. Between the flanks the Germans are favored by the terrain. They now are on higher ground than the French and Americans and apparently are making full use of the natural advantages to Inflict as heavy losses as possible. Germans Shift "Defense" Whether the Germans are going to stop their withdrawal northward where they now stand is not clear. Berlin gives no indication of any further retirement but says that the "defense" has been shifted to between
Fere and Ville. The allied successes on the flanks, however, may speedily
force the enemy to again move northward. Paris believes the enemy will try to stand on his present position. That the Germans expected great successes to follow their blow of July 15, is indicated by the large stores of munitions captured by the allied troops in the forest region north of the Marne. General Foch defeated the offensive and in the retirement, the Germans took their guns but left the munitions. Great stocks of shell of all calibre were found, many of them of the larger sizes. The shell now will be turned against Germans. German local efforts in the region of the Montz in Champagne, east of the Rheims, have been defeated by General Gouraud's army. Strong attempts were made by the Germans to eject the Australians from their gains north
of the Somme. but the enemy was
thrown back with losses.- In their ad
vance, the Australians captured 1431
prisoners and 36 machine guns. Elsewhere on the western front, the situation is unchanged. There has been no confirmation from other neutrals of the report through Copenhagen, that Turkey and Germany have broken off relations. There is said to be much excitement against Germany in Constantinople, especially sines Germany took a Turkish warship against the protests of the Ottoman government. In Washington it is not believed
that the differences between the two powers have been serious enough to justify a break.

SOLDIER DESCRIBES DAY IN ARMY CAMP
Sergeant Paul Hollepeter, who is stationed at Camp Shelby, Miss., has written the following description of "a day in camp" to a friend in this city: "We are up at 5 o'clock in the morning and fall in ranks at 5:13 o'clock. In that 13 minutes we have to be fully dressed, washed, and have our bunks made. This demands 'some stepping," as you can well guess. Beginning at 5:13, we double time it for 30 minutes, and come in for mess, or breakfast, at 6 o'clock. The first cair is reveille.
"After mess we fall in and police i
the company street, and at 9:30 o'clock we fall out again for drill. We are about 2 hours and 30 minutes going through our exercises and drilling on the field. Then we get 30 minutes rest before we take up schook The day I am explaining is, of course, the day of one in a bakery company, so the next thing for me is my bakers class. I have a class of fellows under me to whom Instructions in the Army Baker's Manuel are to be given. My men are getting along fine and taking a good interest in their work. This class, lasts about one hour and then we get ready for the noon meal, for which we are generally good and ready. We surely have plenty to eatand eat we do. After dinner we noncommissioned officers attend a school given by the commander of our company, this lasting about an hour. Af
ter that our time is free until mess at five o'clock. After mess we can go to the Y. M. C. A. or K. of C. They generally have a movie or some kind of a show at the "Y." Lights have to be out in our tents at 9 o'clock. "Different from our regular day's routine, we have made several try runs with bakery units out from camp, remaining away about twentyfour hours in all, and setting up our bakery shops as we will do in France."
