Short Covering
Builds Grains
Feed Shortage
Boosts Market; .
.Wheat, Rye Gain
- By WILLIAM FERRIS
CHICAGO. Jan. 20.-3)-A
abort-covering; movement based
upon reports of government buy
lng of cash wheat and the contin
ued drought in the midwest pro
vided a strong undertone to grain
market today. Offerings in all
nits were lieht and both wheat
and rye scored gains of more than
a cent.
The market drew support from
a bureau of agricultural -econom
ics statement that the supply of
feed grains per unit of livestock
is less than in any year since the
drought in the early 1930s. How
ever, the bureau expected in
creased imports and said 15,000,-
000 tons of wheat would be fed to
livestock in the 1943-44 crop sea
son.
At one time wheat and rye were
up nearly 2 cents, but profit-taking
shaved extreme gains. At the
close wheat was 1 higher, May
$1.704., oats were up -4, May
78, rye was ahead May
$1.29-1.30, and barley was i
1 higher. May $1.22.
Boilermakers
To Appeal
PORTLAND, Jan. . 20.-P)-At-torneys
of the International AFL
Boilermakers union will appear
before the state supreme court at
Salem Friday in an attempt to re
gain control of the wealthy Port
land local.
Wilber Henderson, attorney for
the international, said he would
ask that a circuit court decision,
which turned over union affairs
from the international vice presi
dent to a receiver, be suspended
pending a supreme court appeal.
The petition would prevent the
election pf convention delegates,
already called by Oscar Furuset,
chairman of Portland's civil serv
ice commission, who was appoint
ed receiver Saturday. The con
vention opens in Kansas City Jan
uary 31.
FORT FREELEY, Alaska-(vP)-Editors

newspaper, want relatives to send
them baby pictures of men now
stationed at Fort Greeley.
They will be published each
