All deliveries of corn advanced sharply today to the highest prices yet this season. Bullish sentiment was based chiefly on statements credited to Food Administrator Hoover as to needs of immense supplies for Europe. Much attention was also given to a report that he had said the entente governments were morally bound to assist in main taining the United States guaranteed minimum price for the 1919 wheat crop. Opening quotations, which ranged from to IVic higher, with January $1.44 to $1.44 and May $1.38 to 1.38, were followed by radical upturns all around. Oats rose with corn. Demand, however, was light. After opening to e higher, with May 72 to 72c, the market con tinued to ascend. Provisions were dull, but firmer. Strength of corn and hogs tended to lift values.

Requests that the changes be made in the draft provision of the national agreement as well as in the pro vision concerning optional agree ments on baseball players, made by a committee from the National As sociation of Base Ball clubs was the chief business before the Na tional Base Ball commission today. Following the presentation of the requests by A. L. Tea, president of the Three I league and chairman of the committee, the committee prom ised to see that the matter was pre sented before the joint meeting of the National and American leagues at New York on January 16, but re fused to state whether they would be endorsed or disapproved. No Election Held. The National commission did not hold any election today. Chairmen August Herrman in his annual ad dress recommended that a reorgani zation be deferred until after the joint meeting of the two leagues or until one of the several ideas rela tive to a one-man commission could be definitely determined. Before the commission adjourned sine die, the following notice was issued: "The commission has received in quiries as to their status from sev eral national agreement ball players, who before the completion of the full term of their 1918 contracts were given their releases and now contend that they are free agents. This action by the various . na tional agreement clubs was taken with the sanction of the national commission, because of the strict en forcement by the federal government of its work or fight order. "All national agreement players are notified that the priority of their respective lyio clubs to retain them for this season, as reserved by the various clubs, will be respected in order that the organization of major and minor leagues and the equip ment of their respective clubs may be retained and the resumption of the game can be effected without impairment to the interests of clubs or players." w Consider Budget. The committee from the National association was the only body that presented anything to the com mission today and the remainder of the time was taken up in con sidering the year's budget and other minor routine matters.
