S. r in F GOES TO JAIL AS By WALTER BROWN CHICAGO,, Dec i. At the head desk of the government-fin-1 anced stabilization corporation, j which has bulwarked the wheat market of (he Vnfted States' against world depression, U Geo. j S. Milnor. quiet, urbane, confident a composite of thousands of sue- cessful business men in thousands! of small cities. Possibly none ever entered the j Chicago wheat "pit" with more ! millions of dollars ut his command,! and greater freedom to use them.; Certainly no trader ever had a i more peculiar commission halting1 the downward trend of wheat de-i spite prices in Winnipeg, Liver pool. HnenoH Aires uml other for eign markets. Milnor is from Alton, 111. He bv gan at the bottom with the Sparks Milling company there about 20 years ago. He resigned its presi dency this year to succeed William, G. Kellogg as general manager of the stabilization corporation. Since the middle of November th e stabilization corporation has kept the December price above 7:t cents while elsewhere in the world wheat market it has been dropping steadily downward. How many mil lion bushels of wheat It has bought only Milnor, Chairman l.egge of the farm board and few other high ranking government officials know. And they are not telling. "How are things going, Mr. Mil nor?" he was asked. "Perfect," was his reply; "just perfect." "Have you stabilized the wheat prices?" "Well, we believe we have for this year, anyway," in the same quiet tone. "We don't pretend to affect world supply, demand or price. As a mat ter of fact, the price of wheat In the United States is not fixed by the world market. This country is not on a world basis in anything. "If I have somebody come in here lo paint my office ho is not paid on the basis of what a palmer receives in Kuropo. "The Immigration laws stop the Knropean painter from coming in. The tariff protects the manufactur er. We believe the farm relief laws do the same for the farmer. Mr. Milnor related how on No vember 17 with December deliver ies at 7;i cents, the stabilization corporation decided to strengthen the market. "We gave orders to buy all offer ings at 7;t cents. And we bought I hem; had storage facilities for them and hulad the downward course." Just Ihe fact that the agency would take all deliveries, he ex plained had a steadying effect. Again this week Milnor's agents were In the "pit. 7 There have been times during the past month that the "spread" between Chicago and other world markets was 20 to 25 cents a bushel. Milnor is too busy to be usunJly reached for an interview. Appoint ments are rare, nnd once mado likely are to be postponed several times. He will not be photograph ed. He is middle-aged, medium sized, with light brown hair, qiet, courteous. Ills office is quiet. Pic tures of farm activities hang on the wall, yet he never lived on a farm. In a corner is a ticker, but littlo ticker tape. Outside Milnor's office. In the Grain Stabilisation Corporation headquarters, stand billboards with 24-sheet posters urging the eating of more bread, the consumption of more wheat, and greater consump tion of wheat with reduction of acreage he believes will bring do mestic supply and demand closer together, and make prize stabiliza tion permanent. "What of next year?" ho was asked. "Oh, next year! We'll wait for that." Kven bin smile was quiet. Fred G ravel le, who resides in the Ruoh district, will spend Christmas nnd many other days In the county Jail while his wife nnd four children, the youngest three months old will be "on the county" during that period, as they have been before during periods be- i2i lino i) f I lit f n i h tn-'H ! a 1 1 i ii if into trouble with the law. Local efforts' will be made to have Christmas j cheer provided the wife and chil dren by the Klks lodge or some : other charitably Inclined body. j All because Grnvello in an intoxicated condition drove his car into the rear of a parked car on West Main street about 6 o'clock last evening, near the resilience of Policeman Wm, Peck. Tho latter, who was not to go on duty until 8 p. m., hearing the commotion on the street, came out of the house to investigate and nt once placed Gravelle under arrest. In J ml g e Ta y I or's co u r t t od ay the judge imposed a sentence con sisting of a VI 00 fine and CO days in jail, anjl revoked Gravelle's driving license for n year. Deputy District Attorney George Neilson who represented the prosecution in the case is fnmillar with, the family's troubles nnd tho father's lack of being a good provider for the deserving wife nnd children. He has been arrested before on in toxication nnd liquor selling charges. 4 Beloved Aztec God of Air Plays Santa For Mexicans Central Point CoupnS Wedded A marriage license wa issued at the courthouse In Grants Pass on Wednesday to Hazel Morrow. 36. and William Henry Pejnninger, both of Central I'oint, nnd a few minute inter they were united in marriage by County Judge C.

MEXICO CITY (fP) Santa CtauB will have a substitute in Mexico this Christmas. It will be Quetzoalcatl, legen dary god of the air, who distrib utes toys to Mexican children In the future. In years past Santa Claus has been on the job, but the govern ment has decided it was too .much of a tax oh Sulnt Nick to expect him to visit all countries so Quetzoalcatl was chosen as the most likely substitute. Unlike Santa Claus, Quetzoalcatl needs no flying sled, for according to legend he has wings of his own. And when occasion demands he abandons his human form and be comes a serpent, feathered and with wings. Aztec tradition has it that a kindly, white-bearded man ap peared from the air centuries ngo, before Europeans came to Amer ica and when the powerful Aztec race ruled Mexico. He preached the doctrine of one god, the story goes, and after a short stay disappeared as mysteri ously as he came. The Aztecs, cherishing the mem ory of his visit, decided to perpetu ate it in the form of a stone Idol and they gave the idol the most sacred and beloved form known to them a winged serpent. Delegation of Kantu's powers to Quetzoalcatl, the government be lieves, will give the Christmas spirit more of a Mexican atmo sphere and foster purely Mexican tradition among tho republics children.
