Oats Go to Record
In Chicago Trade
By Joseph F. Frltohrd
Chicago. Nov. 22. (L N. S.) The arein
markets are all higher today and considerable
activity waa shewn during the entire session
Corn was H He higher. Oats were up 4
lc, 'While lard was unchanged to 2 Ho lower
pqrk and rib were a little higher.
Chicago. Nov 22. el. 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

After the War Trad Problem. 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."
