MARKETS

MARKET EMBARGO AFFECTS EXCHANGE

CHICAGO. Cept. 17. Embargoing of all terminal markets against receiving grain unless storage room has been provided for had a bearish effect today on corn. The fact thst storage facilities in Chicago are still ample implied that receipts here would be heavily enlarged. Commission houses were the chief sellers. Opening prices, which ranged from 4 decline to Vi advance with October 153 to 153 md November 149 to 149 wero followed by a decided general setback, but then came a good rally. Active shipping demand gave strength to oats. There was no pressre to sell. After opening onchanged to U higher with October 72 73, the market reacted a little and then again advanced. Provisions weakened with corn but rallied sharply. The upturn was ascribed to Improved cash inquiry.

Island About Size of Ireland Found bv Stefansson in Arctic Zone

(By Associated Press.) VANCOUVER, B. C, Sept. 17. One of the islands which Vilhjarmar Stefansson found in the Arctic region is about the size of Ireland, the explorer said today. The British flag was raised June 19, 1915 on this island which is in what was formerly called the Gustav Adolph sea. Stefansson arrived last night from the north and today continued his journey to Victoria where he will make a report to the Canadian government on his experiences in the Arctic for a period of five and onehalf years. Storker Storkersen, Stefansson's lieutenant, and four men now are carrying out their chief's plans in the far north. The five recently landed on

the Pacific north of Alaska with the intention of drifting westward. Lorrie Knight, Martel Killas and G. G. Gumar, three Seattle men and Gustave Massik, a Russian interpreter are with Storkersen. "I think Storkersen's trip is the most sensational thins: ever attempted in the Arctic," Stefansson said. "Where other explorers drift in boats

which really are floating hotels, Stork

ersen is using a chunk of ice for his boat. Stefansson expects to return here and await the arrival of his steamer Polar Bear for an Alaskan port. The Polar Bear carrying the reports and records of the party recently came south from the Arctic and is now on its way here.

'By Associated Press! WASHINGTON, Sept. 17 Women by the thousands are responding to the appeal of employers to take the place of men entering the army and to fill new positions created by industrial expansion, according to the monthly business review of the federal reserve. From all parts of the country come reports that women are

j helping in factories, stores, ware

houses, street cars and on farms and where harvesting created an immense demand for workers. The rate of increase of women's employment now is much greater than two months ago and some indications are that in a few more months the number of women entering industry will be greater than the number of men withdrawing for military service. The review as made public today shows that women are spending more of their earnings for clothing. Retail dealers in all cities where many women rei-ently have left their homes to work elsewhere report Dooming business. This is contrary to the policies ot economy and self-denial urged by all government agencies as a war measure. Owing to a recent government supervision of employment agents, industries now report much more stable labor conditions but a continued excess of demand for workers that can be supplied. Many anticipate a short

age this month with the return to I school of thousands of teachers and j

ennuren wno nave Deen working during the summer.

Eastern federal reserve banks report that a tendency is apparent among manufacturers and distributors to await full assurance of government price regulations before determining trade policies. Industries generally are active and the less-essential enterprises are rapidly being curtailed or converted into essential production. Wholesalers are beginning to market materials for sale next spring at higher prices and retailers show some uncertainty as to how higher prices will be taken by the public for clothing and other articles. This causes some hesitancy in certain lines.
