School Head Surveys Work Beveridge Defends Tech High Expenditures in Talk on “Education.” The public schools of Omaha repre sent an Investment of $14,216,044.38, *nd cost about $3,600,000 annually to un, said Superintendent Albert J. Beveridge In giving a survey of “Edu iiion in Omaha" at the noon lunch ■on of the Professional Men's qlub in the palm room of the Hotel Fonte i h||p Monday. The schools eitiploy 1.341 persons who are responsible di, .'< !ly to the superintendent’s office. The large buUdlng program of the I st few years has been required, id Mr. Beveridge, by an unexam 1 led increase in enrollment. For ex inple, in June, 1918, there were 4,000 high school students in Omaha. By ihe end of this year there will be 7.800 or practically twice as many, i trolled. This year's enrollment in the grade schools is about 1,000 more than I it year, continued the speaker. If !l the increase had to be handled at one place, it would necessitate the 'nstruction of a new school building with 40 class rooms, costing about *400,000, and the hiring of 40 new teachers. In one school district, -de clared the superintendent, 105 families moved into Omaha this fall in order to obtain the benefit of the schools. Defends Expenditures at Tech. Considerable time was spent by Mr. Beveridge in defense of the expendi tures on Technical High school. "A technical high school Inevitably costs more than an academic high school, but our new Technical High building costs less per pupil than many high schools In other Nebraska towns. We are told by architects and experts in school buildings that we have In it the most complete, although not the most Imposing, h^gh school in the world. Every hit of it is intended for use. and when you visit the build ing I do not believe you will be able 10 find one cubic foot, of waste space in its construction." Mr. Beveridge Invited anyone in terested In the public schools to come to the superintendent’s office and look over the method of handling tlie finances. One has nr) right to criti cise the administration of the schools until he has made such an investiga tion, said the superintendent. New York Sugar.

Chicago Grain By CHARLES J. LEYDEN. Chicago, Nov. 2fi — Housei with east ern connections continued to aupport the deferred deliveries of wheat today, and while best levels were not maintained the close was fairly steady in tone with prices irregular. Considering the new* uhirh was generally figuied bearish the wheal market again gave an excellent account of itself The volume of business in December simmered noticeably. Wheat closed *#c lower to higher, corn was Up lower to ‘ac higher, oats were >»*c higher, and rye ruled *frc ad vanced Many were disappointed to find that President Coolldge Is going to lay the wheat problem before congress for solu tion. R'*m prices in the wheat pit were reached during i lie first hour when cover mg by h prominent short found offerings inadequate. When this buying was satis fied the market listed Corn prices were uneven at the last. The December was under pressure from longs who were reinstating their lines In the May. The continued readjustment of cash and future resulted in a further sharp break of spot prices both Imre and ;it outside points Some believe that readjustment la about complete in that lower grades of com were not at a de livery basis. Trade In oats was slow with the trend uncertain. Commission house* had buy ing orders on the dips, while cash houses persisted on the buying side of the De cember. Kye followed wheat and corn. North west interests sold sparingly. Commis sion houses had resting older* to buy Provisions were off in a quiet trade. Lard was 7%c to 16c lower and ribs were unchanged to lower. Pit Notes. The visible supply of wheat in this country now aggrega t e* 75.000.000 bush els increasing 1.0*1,000 bushels 1h« last week, at cl con pares with 35.191,000 a year ago. The primary movement of wheat, however, was light, half of last year’s amount. World shipments of wh**at and flour last week ware 19.457.000 bushels, (compared with 14.62R.OOO bu«hels Northwest Interests sold moderate amounts of wheat In the local pit. pre f-umablv In the wav of hedging Reports from Winnipeg said that the demand for cash wheat was fairly active, Clearances of Canadian wheat from »h«* head of the lakes thia season total 121.250,000 bushels compared with 125,500 000 bushels last yea r The demand for cash wheat In this country was steadc At Minneapolis an active inquiry prevailed for choice grades while Dunluth said that nil stocks of durum wheat would he moved to the seaboard before the close of navigation. Washington will be the center of at traction for the grain trade within a few days. When congress convenes there promises to be plenty of talk relative to the domestic agricultural situation. There will be plenty of bills Introduced if the advance •’done” runs true. All this serves to make the speculator go slow in his commitments, regardless of his views on the market.

New York Central at 104% and National Supply at 65. prices of all but Urn last named being shaded before the close. Considerable significance was - attached by operators on the long side of the market to the fact that bank clearances outside of New York for the week ending November 17. the latest figures available,, were $242,000,000 over the previous week and the highest since October 20. whereae a 10-year average of clearance during this period shows a decrease of 5.4 per cent to have been a normal chnnge Sugar shares were heavily bought on reports that present consumption was reaching record ligure* and that prelim inary estimates or next year's produc tion showed Hub* change from this year. Oil Issues were helped by the report of a reduction in the crude output of Powell field In central Texas, which began to mount about the time that California pro duction reached its peak.

Directors of the Studebaker corporation a-** expeYted to meet her* tomorrow when -ome definite announce, ment probably will be made. Steel shares were benefited by the op timistic fore« ist of Chairman Topping, of Republic Steel, who declared that the volume of business for this season of the year was better than expected, and that he could see no reason why there should not be normal business next year. .Mod erate strength also developed in the mer chandising, tire and electrical Issues. Call money opened at 4% ppr cent but advanced to f. just before the close Time money and commercial paper rate* were unchanged with business quiet. A sharp rally of more than 2 cents in demand sterling to above 34.38 % featured the foreign exchange market.
