Stocks ad vanced today under a flow of Irani actions larger than the day before, but still somewhat smaller than the average of the last two months. 1 he rise was uneven with ' issues, which had hesitated "on 'Tusdav, moving into the foreground includ ing " both ' railway ; and industrial shares. Again a highly professional quality was evident in trading and had this Rot been 'the case, there might have been room for the sup position that particular groups of stocks were striving to pass from under the influence of depressed commodity prices and indifferent consumption. " The steel group, for example, rose with considerable vigor concurrent ly with the publication of the week's trade surveys which disclosed' fur ther recessions of steel and iron and an abrupt break of $2 a ton in coke. It is possible now to get a clearer view of the- steel and iron market than bfon Slackened buy ing is rsulting in the closing down of some smaller "independent" steel works, according to the Iron Age and production figures point toward a lower output of ingots and pig iron in October than the excellent promise of the first week indicated. Sterling Gains. Sterllnr exchang continued Tuesdry's movement with a gain of Ittc. Th final uotatlon of 11.44 ft for light draft was cents above the week' lowest point, but 6 Ho below laat week's highest level. These figures display something of th effect of the British coal strike, the reflexes or change of sentiment being recorded to a degree In speculative transaction. A par tial recovery of silver was to be expected sooner or later after th sharp decline of the last fortnight and it cam today in an advance of nearly a penny at London and of lloc at New York, with a prlc her of ?s ho per ounce. The convention of banker at Washing ton ha happened to come at a time when producer of all sorts of goods, because of fallen price nd a restricted ' demand at home, wer scanning th foreign mar kets, for an adequate outlet. It I not strange, therefore, that th proposal for in establishment or a iiuo.ooo.ooo aagt Law corporation ha been received with acclamation. ' May Form Corporation. And an Interesting sidelight on current economto events I contained In th tenta tive program of southern cotton growers to form a corporation of tneir own to dis tribute abroad a heavy surplus of their product. A strong corporation under Edge law provisions has been under discussion by members of the American Bankers' as sociation for four or five- months, and It Is reasonable to assume that particular of the program had been fairly well dlgeatod oeinre tne convention met. The desirability of marketing American gooda abroad on credit 1 much more Impressive now than when the law went into effect., but th passag of time has alao wrought changea In the foreign mar ket whose effect cannot be determined altogether. The full application of Edge law principles will entail tne raising ci funds on this side through the sale of debenture secured by notes or securities offered by th buyers of goods. The way In which the marketing of paper of this sort at a time when domestic demand for credit have been Increased by the need of carrying large inventories, until they are marketed, promlaes to supply an interest ing chapter of post-war finance.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Beo Leaved Wire. Chicago, Oct. 20. The German government is said o be out of the market as a buyer of grains for the next two weeks. Whether this is bear propaganda like the English grain cheaper, remains to be seen, men have pulled off many times to depress prices so as to buy their The lowest prices of the season were made for corn and oats to-day, with values lower than at any time in four years. No one seemed to have courage to buy except the exporters. There was big buying of wheat by Harris Winthrop and probably 1, 000,000 bushels given up, which looked like export business. Corn prices are down to a level where it is figured that corn is re latively cheaper than coal west of the Missouri river, counting freight, husking, elevation . and other changes.. It is said that the move ment of old corn will be over by .the end of this month and indications are for a light movement of new. liquidation on Strong. I.Iauldators had ft he grain markets th greater part of the day, particularly in the laat hour, when the lowest prices were made. The new was mostly bearish, and the trade disposed to accept everything of a depressing character and mad th most of It. New low level were made for corn, and oat fairly held. Th only support was from profit takers and buy ing against bids. Closing trad showed losses of 1c on December and He on March wheat, HlSo on corn, lo on oats, Wo on May barley, while rye wa well supported and gained He. Wheat traders, who bought on tire strength in Winnipeg, of October, which advanced 6Uo over the previous day' close, while the December there moved up 3s, were unable to make the Chicago mar kets fit th action of Winnipeg, except for a short time. Highest price were 4o above the previous day'a finish, due to a better prospect for a settlement of the English strike. Large export business helped to strengthen values for a time In the early trading, wtn large buying or March and selling of December to close spreads at lOo difference. , . Cash Wheat Lower. The fact that the government' wheat Investigation committee ' was Irr session here had little effect. The selling which made the late decline was led by eastern houses and was based on a peaalmlstle speech by Secretary of '.the Treasurer Houston. Lowest prices wer 5U6o un der the early high. Southwestern accept ance were liberal and casn wneat mar kets lower. Corn prices at Chicago wer unchanged early and closed 2c lower, with receipts 175 cars. Industries wer moderate buy ers here, while a't Peoria they wer out of the market, and price there wer 1 lMrO lower. Omaha dropped 2 3c. St. Louis opened lc higher, but closed easier. Oats were off Hffllc at Chicago, and un rhanted to H4o lower at other markets. Omaha leading the break. Receipt here were lit cars. ' Pressure was on In oat from start to finish, ,nd the lowest prices of the season were made. At the close, sales were ',iHo above the Inside. December touehed 63c and Mav 58 Uc. Cash Inter ests and liquidators, as well as. the leading bears, were on the selling side. The move ment has fallen off, nut the tact tnat stocks have accumulated was against tire market. , Ry hid good support. Export bid wer reduced 23c oves Chicago, track New Tork. Prices advanced Itict bushel over the previous day's finish, although th close was around the Inside. Pit Note. The only thing In favor tf buying grains at present is that there has been a heavy decline in prices. Liquidation has been severe, but those who have bought, be lieving that prices were low enough of lnte, have seen small temporary advances, followed by renewed declines to lower levels, forclne them to sell out. at losses. Tha financial and general business situa tion Is against tne Dun mantei, dui wnn prices of corn close to 80c for December ven thnnA who have been extremely bearish are a little timid about following that side too far. ' , A great deal of wheat wa bought today against export sales, which gv prices a little rally ot th last. On house bought .50,000 bushels to cover an cquai quan- titv mnA for exnnrt. Corn prices are down to a volnt wher It is figured that corn is cheaper tnan rial west nt the Mlssouil river. This Is based on 24c for freight, 15c for busking and selling and hauling and 3c a bushel for elevator charse. sJJased on 76c for No. 4 corn, the aggregate charges ot 34o leave only 4zc a nusnei ior i'ora. "The only thing that can bull oats to anv extent 1 a large export demand, which will take around 50.000.000 bu shels." said one of the oldest oata specialists. "Stocks have accumulated too fast with only a moaerato movement, o that there 1 nothing but the low prlc r-n whlrh in hllv." "An Investigation uncovers the fact that cash wheat Is now 77c low.-r than on July 15, when future trading was re sumed, while the December delivery I only 65c lower," says Thompson & Mo Rirnon. "It is self-evident as to what has brought about the decline." Cash handlers expect to see th run of old corn greatly reduced by the end of October. Those In close -touch' with the country say that they - do -not expect farmers to sell new corn to any great extent at the low prices. Canadian flour Is offered nt Omaha at 10c under American flour.

Nebraska October 20, 1920 A STATEMENT TO OUR PATRONS, EMPLOYEES AND INVESTORS REGARDING PROPOSED INCREASE IN TELEPHONE RATES IN NEBRASKA v ' ' ' " ,' Because the telephone is an essential public service, it is Important vto all telephone users as well as to telephone employees and investors in telephone securities that this Company's revenues shall be sufficient to meet its requirements. Considered on a yearly basis, our present revenues in this state are approximately 593,000 less annually than are nec-f essary to pay operating expenses and earn 8 per cent interest annually on the money invested in our property. In order to provide for the extension of our service to new people and tonew areas we must obtain over fl, 000, 000 of new money annually from Investors. To get this money we must be able to pay our operating expenses and earn such a rate of. interest as will prove attractive to those who havemone to invest . ' ' This condition has made it necessary for us to ask the Nebraska Railway Commission to approve an increase in our rates. But even with. the increase asked' for, our total rev enues will only be sufficient to enable us to earn approxi mately per cent annually on our investment in this state. An increase of 10 per cent has4 been asked. in exchange rates to be applied as a sur-charge This course has been followed rather than to request complete new schedules of rates, be cause it is Impossible under present conditions to determine what permanent rates should be. ' .... v. A change in long distance rates has been requested which will produce approximately a 7 per cent increase in our toll revenues. These changes apply only on person-to-person calls. No changes will be made in station-to-station toJLl rates. You are well aware of the increases which have taken place in wages, material prices, freight rates, fuel prices,' rents and interest rates. The price of all these items and others affect tha, cost of furnishing' telephone service. To illus trate: We are now paying over .$1,700,000 m6 re annually in wages in this state than three years ago, of which only $750,000 is for new employees added during that perijcdl And the cost of materials used in the up-keep of our property has just about, doubled the last few years 5 j This statement is made in accordance with our policy of giving the publio full information about our affairs, and we feel sure that it will be accepted in the same spirit of fairness and co-operation that has always characterized the publio' s attitude toward this oompany.
