"We are sending1 Mr. Jeklln to Europe as one step In our plan for expanding our operations next year." said George C. Jew ett, general manager of the Northwest Wheat Growers, Associated. "We have already proved to the satisfaction of every one concerned that farmers' organizations successfully can market their wheat In foreign countries, and with additional oushelage and probably additional ter ritory in the Northwest Associated for the rext selling season, we are starting now to make arrangements to handle It to best advantage. Mr. Jeklln is thoroughly fa miliar with the work and during: bis time as Seattle sales manager, had complete Charge cf our cable office. "We may find It necessary to establish additional sales offices on the continent, and Indeed, to Investigate this matter Is cne of the reasons for Mr. Jeklln's assign ment to Europe. At any rate, our export operations next year will be considerably wider than those of the past season." Mr. Jeklln has been with the North west Wheat Growers, Associated, since the selling agency was established last year. Prior to that time, for three years he was a member of the Ryer grain firm, an before that, for many years In the employ of the Albers Brothers Milling com pany. For Albers brothers.

The Feattle sales office, formerly In charge cf Mr. Jeklin, will be temporarily placed under Boyd Schlaefer, present as sistant sales manager, who has been con nected with the Northwest Wheat Grow ers, Associated for a considerable time. WHEAT STEADY WITH SMALL TRADE Sellers Ask $1.30 for Club Moderate De mand for Coarse Grains. No change was made In local wheat bids yesterday and the market continued quiet at all points. There were sellers of club on the market, but they generally asked around $1.30. Coarse grains were steady with s moder ate demand. The Chicago wire to the Gray-Rosen-batim Grain company follows: "Very narrow, largely local market becoming- oversold on break, which caused closing bulge. General news more favor able to buyers. Cash demand some better und premiums stiffer. Receipts light and likely to continue. Situation more favor able to buyers who take advantage of breaks to buy July wheat.' The Liverpool wheat market closed & lower on May at lis. 8d, d lower on July at 11 s. 8;d and d lower on Sep tember at lis. 34 d. Corn closed Sd. higher. According to the Iowa crop summary, npring seeding and work in general is un usually variable. Seeding of oats aver ages about 40 per cent completed. Men tion is riade of the possibility that the backward season may divert some ef the Intended oats acreage to corn, which would mean an over-production of the latter with a normal season. Central Missouri reported growing con ditions very fine. Le Count wired from El Reno, Ok la., "Wheat in this territory la making splen did progress and has Improved greatly. Borne green bugsbut do not think will be an Important factor." The Van Dusen-Uarrlngton crop report aald: "Very little seeding has been done In North Dakota and Montana since last week. In a few districts of South Da kota and southern Minnesota, considerable seeding has been done. The season la about two weeks later than the average, and naturally some farmers are becoming an easy. Our correspondents say that if conditions do not Improve soon, they look for a decrease in the acreage of spring wheat, Broomh all's summary of foreign-crop bond it ions was slightly unfavorable. Argentine shipments this week are es timated at 6.180.000 bushels wheat. SS0. 000 bushels corn, and 700.000 bushels oats. Terminal receipts.

Most of the egg buyers were paying 39 cents to country shippers yesterday and some purchases were made on the street at this price. There was no demand from outside points and most of the trading was for storage account. A disposition was seen in some quarters to go slow in storing on the theory that lighter buy ing would bring prices down, now that production is likely to increase. Butter was wanted for out-of-town ship ment and the cube market was firm. Poultry continued firm with a strong de mand for hens and a light supply. Dreased veil was very weak and de clined attain.

LOW-GRADE WOOLS BOUGHT BY MILLS Purchase Continues Steadily and in Fair . Volume. : BIG FIRMS IN MARKET It Is Evident That Scarcity Alone Prevents Bigger Business in Dealings at Boston. BOSTON, Mass., April 20. (Special.) Buying; ot low-grade wools for woolen mill use continues steadily and in fair volume. Also a few biff concerns this week have acquired a general assortment of wools. It Is evident that scarcity alone prevents a large business- The week's transfers include nearly all grades from low South Americans scoured to choice fine merino and domestic wool. Dealers have resumed speculation to a lim ited extent in scoured South Americana Occasionally a lot of fine Australian me rino is taken out of bond for some mili which must have the stock. Nearly 100 bales of Geelong super merino were taken out this week, coating the mill about $1.50 a pound, clean and duty paid. This is a pointer as to what would happen if the worsted business were normal in volume and values. Good Territory Wool Scarce. Gcod territory wool continues very scarce here and prices are unchanged on a basis of $1 to $1.10 clean, for fine and fine medium staple. Old Texas wools are exhausted, while the new clip is late and expected to be poor because of the drought. Practically all the early shorn Arizona wools have been obtained by eastern buyers or . con signed. Two concerns alone are said to have obtained 80 P'ir cent of these wools. Ohio and other choice fleece wools are well sold out. The only sale reported is a little Ohio half blood at 42 cents. Prices of other grades are unchanged. New York Quarter blood combing has sold at 35 cents and some New York mixed clips at 30 cents. - The low scoured foreign stocks have been transferred within the range ot 40 to 65 cents. J Speculators Push Price. Speculators have pushed up the price of some lots about 5 cents a pound. Pulled wools are a little more active as the sea son for desirable staple nears its end. Re ceipts of foreign wool here the last week were 10.166,750 pounds, against 1,722,400 pounds domestic Australian markets reopened today with strength at all centers and Americans buy ing more freely. Owing to unfavorable weather, both in the middle west and in the territory wool country, it looks as if the great bulk of the shearing of the new clip would have to be put off until after lambing. This will postpone the main operation until after the middle of May. It is reported that about 1000 bales of fine cape wool have been taken out of bond to be shipped abroad. As a com mentary to the claim that manufacturers are afforded a measure of protection by the emergency tariff, attention is called to the fact that, while Australian super merino ' cannot be taken out of bond at less than $1.50 clean for best lots. Brad ford 70 tops can be imported for $1.75 a pound, some having been sold in this market at that figure. LATE RALLY IN WHEAT RESUMPTIOX OF BUYING BY FOREIGNERS EXPECTED. Early Market at Chicago Affected by Uncertainties Over Genoa Developments. CHICAGO, April 20. Uncertainty over developments at the Genoa economic con ference tended to make the wheat market here average lower in price today, espe cially as quotations from Liverpool showed something of a setback. The closing in Chicago was unsettled at ic net decline to o advance, with May $1.43 to $1.43. and July $1.25 to $1.25. Corn finished unchanged to Vi "c off, oats up a shade to 44c and provisions unchanged to 15c higher. Gossip that foreign buyers were again about to enter the wheat market led to a moderate rally in prices here during the final dealings, but values otherwise throughout the greater part of the day were inclined to sag and there was no Indication of agressive demand. Besides the misgivings due to Genoa advices and to lower prices at Liverpool, a movement here to have grain In cars on track made available lor regular ueiivery on the same as ll tne gram were m ctc.. . . t ntr' Thap.

Corn and oats prices held Inside of nar row limits with trading chiefly of a local character.

Great quantities of last year's wheat are now stored in warehouses in Dayton, Wash., according to A. P. Cahill, vice president of the Broughton National Bank of Dayton, who was a visitor here yes terday. The owners of this wheat, despite the advice of their bankers, have held on, hoping that they might obtain better prices. They have approximately 400,000 bushels in storage. "Prospects for a good wheat crop in our section of Washington were never brighter," declared Mr. Cahill. "There was less loss of wheat through the winter than there has been in many years. The farmers ar-3 encouraged and see an op portunity to liquidate many of their debts through the sale of their crops." After having purchased $180,000 worth of Central Oregon Irrigation district bonds, Bert C. Miller, of the G. E. Miller & Co investment bankers, returned to Portland yesterday. The irrigation district upon which the bonds have been issued is re garded as practically the best in the state. It comprises 50,000 acres around Bend, Redmond and Deschutes. Other bond firms competing with Mr. Miller for th-a issue were: Freeman, Smith & Camp, Lumbermen Trust company, Clark-Ken-dall company, E. I. Devereaux & Co., and Ralph Schneeloch. Several of the local bond houses yes terday participated in the sale of the $30, 000,000 worth of three-year 5 per cent Sinclair Crude Oil Purchasing company notes, which were placed on the market with the opening of the stock market in New York. Telegrams were received here long before noon that the entire Issue had been sold out and that the books of the underwriting companies were closed. The notes will be due April 15, 1925. The Lum bermens Trust company, Freeman-Smith & Camp Co., Ladd & Tilton, Security Sav ings & Trust company, Bond-Goodwin & Tucker and Blyth Witter & Co. partici pated in the local sale. Tacoma is feeling a financial revival that bids fair to place the city on a firmer basis than it has had for years, according to E. T. Wilson, vice-president of the National Bank of Tacoma who was in town yesterday. "Our merchants are cheerful, bank de posits are picking up materially and pros perity seems to be approaching," said Mr. Wilson. , Before going to Tacoma a number of years ago Mr. Wilson was in the news paper business in Dayton, Wash. Later he became a national bank examiner and then associated himself with the National bank in Tacoma. A portion of the 20,000,000 guilders Issue of Holland -American line bonds placed on the market yesterday were sold rapidly by" local bond houses. The bonds are to mature in 25 years and will yield A per cent. At present rates of exchange $920 purchases 2500 guilders. The bonds are redeemable at par after five years and are listed to yield 6.90 per cent at present exchange rates. The Paris. Lyons & Mediterranean rail road $10,000,000, 6 per cent, 36-year, non callable bonds, syndicated by Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and participated in by local bond houses, found a ready sale yesterday.

PRICE IVIDVEMENTS SI United States Steel Most No table of New High Levels. MARKET IS LESS ACTIVE Studebaker and Consolidated Gas Strong and Buying in Kails Good. Oils Experience Drop. BY MONITOR. (Copyright, 1922, by the Public Ledger Company. Published by Arrangement.) NEW YORK, April 20. (Special.) In spite of the. appearance ot several new high levels throughout the list, the most notable instance of which was United States Steel, today's stock market ap peared to be moving more on momentum than as a result of any inherent dynamic uplift. Gains were largely preponderant over losses, but in most instances they were fractional in character and price movements were extremely irregular. Trading was on a less active scale. Aside from the disconcerting develop ments at Genoa, including Russia's re fusal to recognize wartime debts or those of the Kerensky regime and the early announcement that Russia and Germany would stand by the Rapatlo agreement, there Appeared to be a feeling among the professional element that the market might develop stateness as a result of the raoid nace at which it has recently trav eled and he influx of belated outside buyers. Little attention was paid to the failure of the directors of the New York federal reserve bank to reduce the discount rate. It is not believed that this action would have any particular bearing on the pres ent money situation as funds are abundant and rates are easy. The influence of such actio.-, would be barometric rather than otherwise. There was no particular feature to the trading. Steel topped par, but failed to hold its gain. Studebaker and Consoli dated Gas were strong and there was good buying in the rails. New Haven and Norfolk & Western moved up sharply and a new high level was reached by Colorado & Southern. The oils, after an early period of strength, dropped on the an nouncement of salt water in the Mexican wells. Mexican petroleum and Texas com pany responded to this development more than other petroleum shares. Public Utilities, according to interests usually in close touch with pool operators, are scheduled for the next movement. Evi dence of this was seen today in Public Service common, which established a new high at 90. Traders who are following this stock are extremely optimistic -over the prospects for the first quarter which it is believed will show a great improve ment over last year. During 1921 public service earned $9.17 per share on the com mon. Anglo-American .Oil is holding steadily and is believed to be increasing its demand for gasoline and other oil products- upon other Standard Oil companies for export purposes. Reports emanating in London to the effect that the Standard Oil inter ests are reaching a working agreement with the Shell Transport interests are en couraging to traders who are following Anglo-American, as this will strengthen their position considerably in foreign markets. Market Street railway issues, despite th publication of a fair earning statement, are holding rather quiet in the market. There has been nothing new ot the pro posal made by the city of San Francisco to take over these lines at $35,000,000. Con summation of any such deal will neces sarily be slow because of the fact that the whole transaction will have to be ratified by the voters at the November election. Public participation has become an es tablished fact in this market, and many ot the day-by-day transactions now are for the account of wire houses. ' This is accepted as confirmation of the revival In business, which is being shown by earn ings and production statements in prac tically all of the large industries. National Lead, according to President Cornish, is showing very good improve ment in its own business, but the affairs o? the United States Cartridge company are showing little to justify some of ths optimistic statements circulated. - Mack Trucks first preferred (formerly International Motors) are believed to be selling out of line with other preferred issues of equal merit and are meeting with very good buying around 100. At the present time the company is meeting with a very good demand for its product and its experiment with motor truck railway cars is apparently proving successful. Texas Company broke rather sharp at the circulation of a report that Wells Fargo company in the Panuco district had run into talt water. The New York Stock Exchange constl- tut'on has been amended to create a com mittee of three to be known as the odd lot committee, which will act in an ad visory capacity on all questions concern ing odd-lot dealings and formulate any new rules which may be thought necessary for such trading. American Woolen, according to Presi dent Wood, has a very bright future for the current year. Mr. wood declaring that although wool salesmen have only recently gone on the road for orders, the demand haa proved to be so heavy that many orders are duplicates and that the whole volume la so great that it cannot all be accepted. - Maxwell Motors has joined the list of motor stocks being favored by local bulls. It is reported that all of this companysv plants are working at full capacity and that while January production was but 2000 cars, April Lg expected to be about 0500 cars and May 7000 cars. Bosch Magneto Is reported to have just closed a big contract with the Interna tional Harvester company, deliveries to begin around the first of next month. Other operations of the company are show ing a general improvement. OLD PRICES UNTIED LIVESTOCK 5IARKET . STEADY IN ALL LINES. Best Hogs Sell at $11.75 to $12 and Spring--Lambs Bring $13.
