THE BEE: OMAHA. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1021. 11 ( i AtHetic Club of Chicago to Sail On Swell Junket Many Millionaires Secure Passage for Maiden Trip of Most Costly Ship Ever ' Built in U.S. Washington, Feb. 9. The Chicago Athletic club is going on a swell junket to Honolulu, having chartered most of the space on the United Stateihipping board steam er Hawkeye itate, the most costly ship ever built in America, which will leave Baltimore on its maiden voyage next Tuesday with what the local shipping men term a million aire passenger list. The vessel, complete, cost the shipping board ,500,000, which is more than any merchant ship in operation in the world cost Before the war, the Olympic, - considered the most palatial and the largest in operation, cost only $7,500,000. The Leviathan, . which cost more than the Hawkeye State, has been tied up lor some time at New York. The HawKeye State's enormous cost was caused partly by the many changes in its design. First, in tended for a. troop ship, it, was changed to a passenger ship when the war ended, It was the govern ment's first experiment in passenger ship building and every effort was made to see that it was as good as, if not better than, any built in Europe. To make the ship able to compete with the fastest European liners no expense was spared in putting in in novations. Among many salons, lounging decks and other accommo- sfdations for passengers, there is a swimming pool on ne main qcck. The first trip of the steamer, which will be to Honolulu, stopping at Havana, Panama Canal ports and San Francisco, will be made by peoph able to appreciate her magnifi cence. There will be at least 10 millionaires aboard it and many other wealthy men. v Jewel, flower, Color Symbols foL Today By MILDRED MARSHALL. The carnelian is today Vtalismanic gem; the ancients believed that it brought good luck in love affairs- indeed, they claimed that at this time . no lover would be successful unless he wore this stone. The natal stone for today, the sap phire, was believed to be especially potent in healing those who suffered from poor eyesight, and in protecting its wearer from all diseases. Striped materials should be - worn today, particularly by those seeking wealth. ' The orchid is today's flower 'and brings unexpected pleasure to those who wear it- ,'.

' ; v " The successful boss of today gives 'orders in a quiot but positive way. If it'becomes necessary for him to criticise a man, he does it quietly, alone, that he may not injure: the pride of his workman- nor rouse him to antagonist. The man who will not adopt the plans of his superior and who will not try-to' improve after being re quested to do so by the one who has a right to make the request, 's an employe , who should not be re tained. ; . When a man holds the top posi tion he is held responsible for the production hi department is creat ing, and .f hi cannot manage the Work as he thinks it should be man aged he cannot get the results he is afte.. s Therefore it is up to the man di rectly responsible to him to carry out his orders explicitly. , This is not a arbitrary stand it is merely a right, position. . When a man gets to the place where he thinks his way of doing tthings is better than the boss's and cannot adapt himself to the ways of his superior, he should get out, and go where he can be able to dictate the methods to be employed.

Wheat prices ad vanced too fast on Tuesday for values to hold and a sharp reaction came to all grains. The buyers of the previous day were the sejlerg to day. Trading was active, with news mixed and moderately 4 bearishon wheat from one standpoint and bull ish ort the other. Traders were not firm enough in their predictions to make positive stands on either side. At the close, March wheat was l-4; higher and May 1c lower. Corn lost 3-4 to 7-8c, oats, 5-8 to 3-4c, and rye, 1-2 to 3-4c, while barley advanced l-2c for the day. Receipts of wheat were 14 cars. ' Wheat traders who consider the cash news of special importance as a price-making factor were on the buy ing side and secured a' good advance at one time. Prices at their best were up 2 l-4c to 4 l-2c over the pre vious day s close with March in the lead. Future Market Active. There was active buying of March and selling of May at 10c difference. Kansas City reported light country offerings and a message from flalina, Kan., said one firm, operating 31 sections, bought only 800 bushels of whiat Monday and Tues day. Kansas City reported a good milling demand with 35,000 bushels sold, while at Chicago sales were only 15,000 bushels to mills, . with cash premiums on hard winter wheat lo to to. higher and springs lo higher. Minneapolis and Winnipeg reported a good cash demand at full premiums to lc higher. . . Heavy selling of May on the bulge was noticeable on the part of somo of the buyers of the. previous day, who covered later on the breisk. A good-sized line of March wheat wns unloaded by a local holder. The. market was extremely er- ratlo In ita price action, the pit element buying on the bulgo and selling on the breaks. Action of the corn market showed th effect of the heavy covering movemen of Tueaday and reduction in the buying power, races at tneir beat-were up 8tc, with the close around the low point. Country offerings remain light and re ceipts only 243 points. oats had support mainly from local traders who wero following wheat fend corn. Reinstating previously covered lines was a factor.' Trade In all was light within lo range and the closs Ho to o below the low point Cash prices were ao to zo nigner cany ana oiosea wun the advance lose. Spring sales were 20, 000 b'lahela and receipts 62 cars. Rye trade was light. - Prices, however, advanced 2c with a break of 2 Vic at the last. Nothing was beard about export business. Pit Notes. , The wheat market la In a cosltlon where sharp fluctuations within a wide range are to be expected at any time. The crop scare period Is at hand and those who watch the cropa as a basis for their operations - are gonlg a little slow on the selling side, except on bulges; The cash situation Is regarded by some close observers as strong enough; to need close witching, while others who look at the falling off In the export demand as the main factor against maintenance of values, are selling on bulges. One of the largest corn traders says the market may not do much In the way of advances until planting time. Should the price remain low at that period, the acreage will probably be greatly reduced, while a high price will Induce liberal planting. A materially smaller' acreage would' result in a supply and demand situation, which will probably advance prices. . The green bug may develop Into a considerable factor, says Thomas ss Mc Klnnon. "Having In mind the Idea that we have sold sufficient of our surplus wheat tor shipment abroad to bring the reserves down to a minimum basis, we feel that the thought of higher prices Is more logical." There Is a mixed feeling In corn. Those who look at the slow cash demand are not Inclined to give the market any sup port and are selling- on bulges. Hedging business has been somewhat reduced, ow ing to the lighter receipts. Reports from the country late, yosterday said that the early advance, had slightly Increased farmers' offerings..,- , . .:-.. There were bids of 100 to lOHe over Chicago, May, for corn, track Baltimore) and 11 Ho over New York, shipment In 10 aays. Indianapolis reported bids of 11a over. track Baltimore, for Baltimore terms. Cash discounts on corn were He to lo better yesterday, with No. 2 yellow 6c to 5 He under May, No. 4 grades, 80 to 9c, and No. 6, 9o to lOo discount. The British government has resold 70.- 000 tons of flour, mostly.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. New York, Feb. 9. Whatever may have been, the specific cause for Tues day's sudden aud general recovery in the markets, it appeared pretty much to have' spent its force before bus iness ended today.'., PricesrOn the Stock Exchange moved irregularly with alternate advances and declines and with nearly as - many stocks showing net losses at the close as net gains. The foreign exchange market also lost some of the pre vious day's advances, and the com modity markets as a rule, were re-i actionary. Insofar as the slightly easier call money market had been an influence, it continued today, which was the first day since January 28, to main tain an unvarying 7 per cent rate. The time money market, however, has not changed this week, l tie rates are still exceptionally high for this, time of year; the 6 1-2 per cent to 7 1-2 per cent now quoted compares with 4 to 5 12 per cent n this oer od of 1919. 1918 and 191, but it is well below the 8 1-2 and 9 per cent rate which pervailed in the second week of last February. Deadlock Most End.' At present, the governing Influences on the Ions: term money rate at New York Is not, as in 1920, the New York credit situation, but the unwillingness of the south to pay off its maturing loans. Of this it may at least be said that the deadlock will very soon have to be broken, either bv liquidation of cotton holdings at the best price the market will bring, or else by some other permanent measure of relief. The strong probability la that the mat ter will be forced to a settlement by the end of this month, when the question of farmers' borrowings to prepare lor tne new crop arises. It Is hardly to be sup posed that southern banks, even If they were In the position to do so, would con sent both to lend on the prospect of the 1981- cotton yield and to continue carry ing over the unsold surplus xrom me yield of 1920. , . Sterling Exchange Drops. Sterling exchange lost about lo out of the 5 Ho advance or tne day neiore ana most other European rates reacted moder ately. This may have happened, as It did In the case of stocks, because the eas ing off of New York money rates went ho further, but It was more regarding reparations payments. Such a controversy over the new Paris plan was a certainty from the first, and it at least contains batter nromlse of a business-like settle ment than the futile outcry with which that pain was first received at Berlin. But it means delay. and the financial community would not be greatly surprised If the delay were extenaea until alter March 4. The stock market opened with lrregu lar downward reaction, and reoovered at midday and in the later hours, when a few advances of 1 to t points were scored In the Industrial group, but weak ened distinctly towards the close. Trading was not active, and only in half a dozen stocks were the day's transactions great er tnan tnoae or a dull market - , Steel Prices Cot. The cut In steel prices by one large Independent company, bringing them, for tne (irst time, below the united states Steel corporation's schedules, nas naturally renewed financial Interest In the Question whether the steel market especially In structural material, can hold In the face of the outside business situation. The Mtdvale company's reduotlon Is not large; In structural shapes tne price Is given as 2.25c per pound, against the larger company's 2.4VC, with other reduc tlons ranging from It to 12 per cent The Iron Age takes the view that the scope of independent price-cutting will be con trolled by the limitations of wage reduc tion, and adds that the magnitude of the large corporation's unfilled orders and the amallness of new business In sight. seem to make improbable Its meeting the ifKiepenaeni cuts. rroDiDiy tne actual result win de pend, first, on the rapidity with which the unfilled orders run, off without new business replacing them, and second, on the extent to which, as time goea. the lower Independent prices turn out to have attracted or - hot to rfiave attracted or ders.' . , Omaha Grain' 1 1 Bonds and Notes New York (otetions CHICAGO CLOSING PRICES.
