IRE OATS NEEDED
Another Emergency Order Is
. Anticipated.
MARKET. IS FIRMING UP
Advance In Wheat at Country Points
Is Temporarily Checked Trad
ing Is Lighter Than, on
Preceding Days. -
The oats market is firming up in antici
pation of another largo Government order.
The War Department purchase of oats
for use on the Mexican border are emer
gency orders and heretofore have been
placed every three months, so the next call
for bids is expected not later than March
3. The usual call Is for & total of about
13.000 tons, half of which are drawn from
the West. Government buying- to date this
Bummer has been a considerable factor in
keeping the Pacific Coast market firm. At
the Merchants' Exchange yesterday $36.75
was bid for all deliveries of oats.
Wheat was firm with trading in the coun
try somewhat lighter than on the preceding
day. Prices in the interior were not ma
terially changed, standing at $1.55 for club,
$1.57 for fortyfold and $1.60 for bluestem,
net to farmers. At the Merchants Ex
change wheat bids were but little changed
from Tuesday.
N The Liverpool cable said: "Wheat, steady
- en American advices, but dull, expecting
Increased arrivals. Corn, dull, as advance
too rapid. Oats, very firm, with advanc
ing spot, cold weather increasing consump
tion. Argentine, weather unsettled, with
showers in parts. Larger shipments of
wheat and corn expected.
A New York broker writes of the pros
pect for the wheat market:
"Speculatively, prices alternate with the
changing news from Europe as to continua
tion of war. or chances of peace. Commer
clally considered, the question of supply
and demand is what is bound to determine
v&lues. Europe Is sadly in need of supplies.
and with fading hopes of procuring quick
shipments from Australia, Argentina and
India, she looks to North America. Wo have
already sold much of our surplus, some
claim more than we can spare, and at the
rate of recent clearances, wo are fast reach
ing a serious, not to say critical point for
our own needs. With any unfavorable ad
vices on the new Winter crop, a serious
situation would arise a calamitous one.1
The United States visible corn supply is
7.077,000 buuhels. against 11,802.000 bushels
last year; oats. 46,509.000 bushels, against
20,865,000 bushels last year.

NEW YORK. Jan. 17. New low records
for Russian and Italian exchange, which
registered the greatest discounts since ths
outbreak of the war. the reported activities
of German raiders in South Amesacan waters.
causing marine insurance to mount to pro
hibitive .-rates, and the conservative tone
of steel trade authorities were among the
influences which made fox restraint in to
day's irregular market. '
The acute weakness of remittances to Pct-
rograd and Rome, rubles being quoted at
9.05xand lires at 0.D8. was attributed by
dealers In foreign exchange to the inability
or refusal of those countries to meet the re
quirements of our bankers.
United States Steel, which at one time
showed a slight gain over the previous
day, closed at a loss of almost 2 points.

MEASURE IS DEFENDED
PrRPOSB OP SENATE BILL TS EX.
PLAIXED BT MRS. OCBtTRX.
Head of Cossaniers' Leagne Saya Ok.
iect la Reduce- Work Bean for
Vt omea From SO ta .8 a Week.
Opposition to Senate bill 7S, Intro
duced in the Legislature Tuesday by
Senator Gill, is mistaken, says Mr.
William Ogrburn. president of the Con
sumers League, which sponsors th
measure. She declares the bill Is not
a measure for an eight-hour day for alt
women workers, but It merely limits
the hours of work for any one week,
reducing the number from SO, as at
present, to 48.
It is not an eight-hour bill at all.
said Mrs. Ogburn yesterday, "nor doea
it state anywhere that hours of worK
for women ahall be limited to eight.
Those who oppose the bill evidently are
mistaken and have not studied it
"The Congress ot Mothers favored
the adoption of this measure, although
Mrs. George McMath. president ot that
organization, haa come out against it.
She says she opposes it on the ground
that she is against an eight-hour bill
for the reason that the women workers
themselves axe against it.
"The way similar laws work else
where Is that it brings about a nine
hour day, with a half-holiday on Satur
days. Men get this concession in the
East already and we see no reason why
women workers here should not have
it, with the same consideration prob
able in the future tor men workers as
well."
