It THE BEE I OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, JUNK 23.-1920. 11 1 I .MUII.II..H 'f OMAHA JAZZ IS BIGGEST HIT AT SHRINERS' MEET Tangier Temple Puts Omaha On Map at Portland Against a Stiff Opposition. Portland, pre., June 22. (Special Telegram.) Tangier Temple of Omaha won honors in the big pa rade that opened the Shrine con vention in Portland. More than JOO temples were .represented in the parade, most of them by band, patrol and chanters. The Nebraskans were among the most conspicuous and received equal applause with Lulu temple of Philadelphia, which was the offi cial escort for Imperial Potentate Kendrick, who, himself, is from l'hildelphia. "The jazz music played by the Tangier oand has made a great hit in Portland and is the most commented on of the convention music bodies. The Omaha headquarters in the Multnomah hotel where they are keeping open house continues to in crease in popularity. Eight thou sand Shriners visited there, accord ing to Potentate Stites. Tuesday night the Omaha nobles gave a street show. The Ancient Arabic Order, No i bles of the Mystic Shrine, made a net gain of 74,725 in membership in the last year, according to the report submitted by B. M. Rowell, imperial recorder. r i Balloon Basket Is Made Nonsinkable By Use of Kapok Belt The sieve that wouldn't sink proved itself at Carter lake yester day, when the combined efforts of A. Leo Stevens, civilian adviser at Fort Omaha, and Denny Ryan, ath letic director at the fort, aided and abetted by 600 pounds of sand, failed to sink an ordinary balloon basket. The basket was of open wicker work, but its equipment was not. A belt of kapok, a non-sinkable fibre substance, encircled the basket, and prevented it from taking its load of nearly 950 pounds to the bottom of the bke. The experiment was un dertal.tt to test the buoyant quali ties of the kapok. In case the results indicate success, balloons operating near water will be so equipped. It it also planned to put such a life preserver on the hasket of the army balloon entered iri the international races in the fall. J During- " the experiment Mr. Stevens! stood" on the edge of the basket, in an effort to capsize it, but was unable to do so. The has ket, laden with the sand and bal last, was left in the lake all night, to test the life of the kapok. It is believed to be good for more than 24 hours exposure in the water.

Crop and weather reports were favorable, and a larger sup ply of cars was reported In parta of Illinois. In other sections, however, the scarcity is still acute. Sentiment In oats was rather bearish due ' to tho failure of damage reports to be received, and the break In corn. 4'ommlsston houses sold freely rhlte. the best buying was on resting orders and against bids, but the September showed an easy undertone.

Financial Chicago Tribune-OtUbha Bee Leased Wire, New York, June 22. A movement toward lower price levels occurred in many of the major markets, in cluding stocks, government bonds, cotton, grain and provisions. In a period of such indifferent dealings as those current, it is dif ficult to ascribe definite influences to price movements, but the high cost and scarcity of credit undoubtedly continues to have influence every where. This is particularly applica ble to the securities markets, for speculative operations in staples was evidently directed today by satis factory weather reports from parts of the grain belts and the belief that the yield of wheat in the southwest is going to be substantially larger than estimates of a month ago pro vided. Business Very Dull. Stocks drifted toward fractionally low er levels in the hour before the first call money quotutlon was announced and when It appeared at 8 per cent higher than tho day before, the decline was accelerated to a slight degree. Business, however, was extremely dull throughout the day. Industrial stocks, which had advanced last -week, wero under more presure than others and at the close this group was down from H point to 2 points or more. Call money again reached upward to 11 per cent in the afternoon snd very little time money was in the market. The set back which Liberty bonds suffered after several days of fairly good action, may have been connected with the stiffening tendency of time money on Monday and It could be argued furthermore that re currence of scattered railroad strikes again had a depressing Influence on these Issues because of the Inference that de liveries of goods would be retarded fur ther, preventing satisfactory release of working capital tied up in them. It was probable that the, unauthorized railroad walkouts at important centers acted to piomote caution In the speculative buy ing of stocks. An item in news coming from points whepo the wheat harvest Is being gathered had to do with the movement to store the new crop on the furms or in hurriedly constructed elevators un til later in the year. Because of railroad congestion, bankers have urged that no haste he displayed in the shipment of grain to the big centers and in addition to this factor, farm organizations, ac cording to reports, are urging members to hold for higher prices. The bankers are not desirous of having the great elevators choked with grain, which In the past has become the basis for loans, when tho process of liquidating the wheat must be slow until transportation im proves. It will be Interesting to sec whether the conjunction of these forces has effect in loosening the strain upon credit which is awaited with some con. cern, especially as the expectation of transportation difficulties In the autumn months is held In many quarters. Cotton Exports large. Despite curtailment In exports of-' cote ton during May as compared with April the record of May exports shows that American trade outward bound continued on a scale which was surprising to many students of commerce. Exports were $63,, 000.000 greater than in April and- $136, r 000.000 larger than in May, 1919, at the same time that Imports fell $64,700,000 from the April total. The export excess for May amounted to more than $308, 000,000, exceeded by substantial margins, the results of corresponding, than during all the period of heavy commerce beginning- with 1915. and was far in excess of May In every preceding year when -an ex cess occuiTecT." Foreign exchange continued to move forward, sterling going to $3.99H and closing at $3.98. Tho rise of the allied country exchanges, and also of the Ger man rates. , evidently reflected speculative) hopes centered about the financial confer ences now going on. centered in provision of the indemnity. Sliver in the "foreign" metal quotation responded to a gain of 1 pence at London to 62 pence with a half cent rise at New Tork, 98c per ounce.
