Strenuous But Quiet "Dry

Y. M. C. A.

CHICAGO, April 24 Big setbacks In the value of grain and provisions have resulted thl3 week from Indications of severe financial strain. Compared with a week ago. corn prices this morning were 3Hc to 67,ge down, oats were off one-eighth to 2sC and provisions lower 37c to $1.95. All deliveries of corn, oats, rye and Knrlpv were at about hifch record

prices for the season, when suddenly , the corn market was swept by an I avalanche of selling. The pressure toj get rid of holdings and to seize advantages from the break In prices

went beyond ordinary limns Deioru traders began to regain their equilibrium and to be guided even partly by influences other than the violent changes of securities in New York.

. NEW YORK, April 24. Further "corrective measures" invoked by the federal reserve board to curtail or restrict speculative credits gave the stock market a violent setback this week, but the reaction was accelerated by a weakened bull position. The action of the central bank authorities took the form of advanced discount rates at important financial, commercial and industrial centers. This was supplemented by the private banks of those sections where additional contraction of loans was in progress.

was a decided factor in the success, as were the churches, he said. The Anti-Saloon league interest in the campaign had nothing to do with party lines, he said. The interest lay in Bryan's victory as a "dry" leader, in view of the fact that Hitchcock was allied with the beer and wine interests, and that Nebraska was a crucial point in the league's fight against the "wet" offensive.

"End of Road" Film to Warn Against Venereal Diseases, To Be Shown "The End of the Road," a seven-reel film, will be shown for the first time In Richmond at the High school auditorium on Tuesday, Wednesday and i Thursday nights, April 27. 28 and 29. respectively. This film has been pre- , pared and furnished by the United States government to assist the various states In the nation-wide campaign against venereal diseases. Two of the leading characters were taken by Richard Bennett and Claire Adams, who have thrown themselves into the fight, beside other earnest and high-thinking citizens. The very fact that stars such as those named have gone into this campaign shows that persons of different talents have combined forces and resources to crush a common foe. "The End of the Road" shows life as it is. The title refers to the end of life's road when traveled in different directions. Mary l-.ee, the star In the story, was taken into her mother's confidence in early childhood, and she becomes one of the finest characters imaginable. The campaign is intended to cure and to prevent venereal diseases. Every case prevented is one less to be cured. The film will be shown to men and boys on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, and to women and girls on Thursday night. Doors open at 7:30.
