THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, APRIL 1. 1921 Liltic CI lanirc In Conditions Slight Improvement IVoleil in Business Situation, Reserve Bank Review Reports. Washington, March limi tless showed little indication this month of getting away from the un certainties of the last year, accord ing to the federal reserve board's monthly review. Increased activi ties were noted in sonic trades, but with those exceptions, commerce ap parently was waiting further devel opments before moving toward any thing like normal, federal reserve agents reported. Regarding trades showing a . healthier side, including automobiles, textiles and footwear, the board hesi tated in saying they had experienced , more than temporary advances due to the spring season. Whether the activities -of such lines portended a general revival of business, the hoard declared no definite statement could be made. The board's observers reported that the buyers' strike, felt first l:it summer, still showed an almost solid front. So great has been the influ ence of the public's refual to buy it high prices that where heavier sales are reported in wholesale and retail trade, they arc ascribed whol ly to local conditions. The only op t.ttiistic expression was in connection with the employment situation which, the review, said, reflected slightly improved conditions attrib uted to the increased . seasonal ac tivity in the three lines of manufac turing mentioned as showing more life. Reports front reserve batiks touch ing agricultural communities indi cate that the cry of the farmers for labor is heine answered by persons driven out ot cities through lutein ploj-mqnr., Market, Financial and Industrial News of the Day l i. .1. .1 .1: : i Bonds and Notes South Side Former South Omaha Mayor Dies in Florida News was received in Omaha last night of the death Wednesday night ot Edward Johnston, 74, mayor of South Omaha in 1894'.

The 7 per cent rate for demand loans was leached again on the stock exchange today, perhaps reflecting the month end payments, fbut otherwise not sig nificant. Foreign exchange rates were a fraction lower, but these occasional reactions, in sterling particularly, have lately come to be regarded merely as incidents in a slow bu continuous recovery. It is possible that this recent movement in cx change on Europe will bulk larger as a sign of the times when it be comes possible to survey the period as a whole. Todny's stock market merely repeatsd the storv of the day before, though pres sure of professional sales was less violent and concentrated and there were more In dications of repurchases on the day's de clines.

Now low levels were established for May and July wheat and for all deliveries of corn and oats. Liquidation was re newed with increased volume and there was a good class of buying of wheat, while in corn and oats .the support came mainly from profit takers. News was mainly against an advance and the few rallies that came were the result of local operations. The only constructive influences were the "large export business in wheat, 1,700,000 bushels and 200,000 bushels corn sold at the seaboard. Closing sales were at small rallies from the inside and showed distant futures of wheat off 1 1-2 to 1 3-4c, with March up 1-2; corn 5-8 to 3-4c, oats 1-4 to S-8c, rye 5-8 to 7-8c and barley 1 -4c. Trading in wheat futures was heavy and prices declined to the low est of the season, with May oft to $1.37 1-2. followed by a bulge of around 3 cents and closed on a break due to heavy local selling at $1.38 1-2 to $1.38 3-4. July was down to $1.19 at the inside, and finished at $1.19 1-2 to $1.19 3-4. Strong March Trading. Trading In March wheat was of good volume and mainly at 31.55, with tho ex treme range lc abovo and lc below that figure, the finish being 31.65. It was of fered freely at 11.65 all day by tho lend hig Interests, openly and tWrough brokers. Corn was on the market In good volume and from large and small holders, es pecially the latter. Buying came mainly from those who were taking profits, some of the largest of recent sellers being on that tide on the break. May broka to 60 4c, with a rally of 4c and a tamo close at 604c. to 604c The same de pressing factors continue uppermost In the minds of traders, although cash of fering were not larga t nd arrivals were 133 car. Oats w ere sold mainly by local operators and bought by northwestern houses and loc:al operators to cover previous sales. ' The depression In corn and wheat was re flected in 1 break to 38 4 c for May. with a rally of lc and finished at 384c to 38o. Cash prices were Uc to 14c low er, with th'fl south and east buying 106,000 bushels In all and arrivals of only 59 cars. Exporters took 600. 000 bushels rye at the seaboard and 16,000 bushels here, pay ing 37 4c over May, track Baltimore. Houses with New York connections were large sellers of May and the price broke 14c. Country offerings were aald said to be the best In two months. Pit Notes. The question asked by grain men Is, "how low are prices going?" It Is not a question of a price with the professional traders In most Instances, but of getting buyers for tho coarse grains. The latter are easy to buy, as country and local holders are getting out and the only buy ing Is to secure profits. There have teen largo purchases by the leading elevator Interests through brokora who have been the largest sellers of late. The 60c levels for May corn was nearly reached and the S9c for May oats was passed on the downgrade. Prices of corn and os arc the lowest at this tlm since 1912 and the markets have low friends. In wheat there Is mora disposition on the part of most of the local professionals to buy on breaks. This Is due to a belief that the continued buying for exporters Is taking supplies too fust at present level of prices and they see no use ot, selling1 on declines and look for- a bulge, which, should It materialize, will heln corn add oats, which are oversold and have !e friends. There Is a scattered long inter-.'st in May corn by the country and Job h,ts are selling thn same as round lots for first time In months. Wheat was under pressure from all classes of tradejs today,, with cash markets in the southwest very weak, Kansas City snowing losses ot 3 to 6c and low grades at Minneapolis 3c lower. Canadian wheat In the latter market was 42c. over Minne apolis and it was stated that Canadian farmers are. beginning to liquidate, while tho Americans are not selling fast, al though ther Is a fair sized quantity- to be nan ana exporters in tno southwest ap pear able to secure-their wants by bidding up ror tnem. premiums at the gulf were la highor. Tt is said that the British have 20,000,000 bushels, to sell to complete, their season's requirements. Dark No. 1 northern from Canada, which sold r.t 45c over May at Minneapolis Wednesday, declined to 4"c to 43c over to days. In western Canada where Minne apolis mills recently paid ISc over May, the price was down to 13o over as tho result or the ratling orr In the demand. St. Louis was $2o, Omaha 2c and Kan- sss City Z(g6tj lower. ARE YOU SATISFIED With the Public Accounting Service being ren. tiered you?
