Ji. 8.1 Oat reached a new high level for the. season here today when December jumped to '68 He. while May reached 68c. Short covering waa a feature of tha mar ket, with offerings light. There was considerable pressure on both the corn and oats markets, and it took but little buying to start the sharp rally that sent oats to a new high level. .Trading In corn arid oats was featureless, and ordeVs were for very small amount. Corn prices were slightly lower at the 'open ing,- while oats opened . yesterday's close, but advanced sharply. Buying support 'In provisions was limited at the opening, -and a fsrw Selling orders produced a sharp decline. Continued liberal receipts of hogs and lower prices at tbe yards were, the bearish influences. -v Chicago range of prices furnished by United x-reas: , CORN Open.

In a bulletin addressed to bankers, capital-1 lata, shippers and producers of trade commodities, Hearr Evans, president of the Ajnerican Eagle Firs Insurant company, calls attention to post war trad programs being; prepared by Great Britain. Germany, Japan and other countries and points out certain of the problems which v. Ill confront the United States when peace has been brought about. "We are now practically pledged to the investment of $21,000,000,000 in the war. of which ona half will probably be repayable In loans. The other half will be a financial waste unless tbe mili tary and naval power that it builds up for ua is to be accompanied by the ex tension of national trade. If the United States is merely to watt patiently for the repayment of her loans to other na tions, that repayment will surely be made out of profits they make out of ua in our own trade, or out of trade that will be theirs merely because we resign It to "them without an effort to control It. As a' business proposition we might betterrafford to lose the loans than to resign the enormous values In world trade. Without speculating at all upon the probabilities of tha migration of peoples after the war, we must face the problem of an enormous increase of popWatlon in the United States in the next generation and must lay the foundations for employment and sup port of more than 200,000.000 people, the working forces and productivity of which are increasing steadily through the entrance of women Jth to All avenues of occupation. And we must take care to make that great industrial popda tton the best rewarded in the world. This Is going on elsewhere among all our. competitors and the United States cannot without disaster attempt to re main stationary or even to merely bold he.r own. These suggestions are offered because as business men we must look to the future before the problems that I win surety arise shall force themselves I upon the unpi epared attention of those responsible for governmental policies. If business does not pioneer the way for liberal laws such laws will not be enacted." Traveling Ms Mast EeoBomlse In a bulletin Issued to .members , of the National Wholesale Dry Goods associa tion, tha following economies sure pointed out as having been made nec essary by the war : "Tha traveling sales man by bis liberal and open-handed methods has aided greatly In boosting the prices on himself.
