Open Door Policy
Urged by Hoover
In RecentSpeech
Secretary of Commerce Says
American Industry Can
Dominate RJarkets if Cor
rect Policies Adopted.
' By HOLLAND.
Shortly after the final meeting of
the American Manufacturers associa
tion, whose annual gathering was in
New York City last week, the re
mark was made that, if for no other
reason, the members were to be con
gratulated upon the success of this
meeting because the address made
by the Secretary of Commerce Mr.
Hoover would of itself have been suf
ficient fully to repay these represen
tative - manufacturers for the time
:ind expense entailed in sharing in
this gathering.
Mr Hoover's speech was made at
the Danquet. The American manu
facturers are much concerned over
the maintenance and increase'of mar
kets in other parts of the world to
which, during the war days and for
two y,ears after, their products were
sent.
Mr. Hoover believes that Ameri
can industry can dominate in foreign
markets, but if this is to be accom
plished there must be some indus
trial co-ordination and such policies'
adopted as will make it possible to
" hi foreign markets American
4 0nmodities better in quality
J'&r in price than competitive
in jpities offered by other coun
tries. He evidently believes that as
international onditions are g'aduacl
ly, but surely, becoming stabilized,
our industries will find no difficulay
in aiding foreign customers in the
purchase of our commodities.
Expect Normalcy Soon.
Ho made one statement which- bai
caused a good deal of comment. For he
aid that International conditions are be
ing so rapidly stabilized that he Is certain
that It la safe to predict that they will
become 'normal, not normal as the term
was understood before, the war, but nor
mal In sympathy with the vastly changed
conditions consequent upon the war. He
ventured to predict that stabilisation ot
this kind will have been completed In
about two years.
Mr. Hoover jilso Insisted that It should
be tire policy of this government to main,
tain the open door as far as that Is pos
sible In our trade relations with, other
countries. Evidently he does not believe
In a very high tariff. Certainly he does
believe that If nome other nations put
a restraining hand upon. the United Mates
as some ot them are now doing with re
peot to oil. fields, then It should be the
policy of this country to make suitable
reprisals. The open door, he believes, Is
the permanent and safe way of maintain
ing satisfactory trade relations.
Insists on Open Door.
Some years ago, when representatives ot
tlx nations, Including the United States,
met at Paris for the purpose of agreeing
upon joint loan of many millions to
China, there sat at the head of the table
In the room where the sessions were
held an American citizen. Me was Hen
ry P. Davison and he said at the begin
ning of the sessions that there were two
things which the United States would In
sist upon. If this country was to Join
the other five in making the loan to
China. One was the open door. No nation
should be favored by China at the expense
of any other nation. The other condition
was that no one of tbe six nations should
n.tempt to Impair the sovereignty of
1'Mna by securing land In any part of
China.
The open door was then established ns
the American policy. It was accepted-by
the representatives of the six nations. It
Is precisely the open door policy which
Secretary Hoover now advocates. in a
lew wnras in one pari or nis aaaress
In thfc An.arlf.nn mn nilfRntlirffrfl hit apt
open door to au who also maintain the
epar. -doori but reprisal In ease any one
ot the 'other nations close the--door of
opportunity and development- to the
United States.
Schwab Furnishes Fine Test.
When Mr. Sohwab speaks,- the words
which he utters are almost always coin
cident with action. He speaks optimism
without fall and he has again demon
strated the perfection of bis optimistic
faith. Before the war Mr. Schwab pur
posed the establishment of a very large
plant At Sparrows Point on the Chesa.
peaks, near Baltimore. He entered Into
contract with ship builders for the con
struction of several steamers so built as
conveniently and economically to carry
ore to Sparrows Point from the very rich
Chilean mines for the operation of which
Mr. Schwab had secured a concession.
The war Interrupted the carrying out of
these plans.' Now In this time when lon
fldence Is especially needed, Mr. Schwab
reveal hli own confidence. He is great
ly to snlargs tor us company ins piam
at Sparrows Point and la to Invest at
least 126,000,000 In the perfecting of this
Plant. He will employ .6,000 men. When
the work Is completed and when the il
and ore vessels are ready for use, then
Sparrows Point will be a great ore base.
Mr. Schwab looks ahead. Ho seas tn the
fnniM tint distant a demand for Ameri
can products -and especially tha products
of the oil and ore industry which justify
an expenditure Vf 125,000,000 which Is In
addition to tho Investment already made
of that plant.

IJCtW iivnv w44.w Cash wheat prices rangei
By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES. changed to a cent lower,
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York, May 24. Today was
a day, of violent and at time con
fusing movements in nearly all of
the principal nkrkets and these
movements apparently reflected more
than on any recent day, the scope of
purely speculative activities. They
comprised 'a heavy break in indus
trial shares on the stock exchange,
coming after an irregular opening; a
sharp fall and sharper recovery in
European exchange and a rapid de
cline in wheat, followed by renewed
advance which carried the entire
grain market far above yesterday's
closing prices.
These spectacular movements had
more connection than usual' with the
day's news. In the movement of the
stock market, today's aggressive pro
fessional selling of Industrial shares
was plainly pivoted upon the passing
of dividends on the Central Leather
preferred stock and the Remington
typewriter common shares.
Movement Unexpected.
There ha been .little reason to expect
continuance of the leather company'
82,300,000 annual preferred dividend when
its payment tn 1920 had Increased the
year's deficit after expenses and fixed
charges to 125,700,000. The 11-polnt re
covery In the stock from the low point of
April may have encouraged belief that
the recent moderate recovery In th
leather trade would Induce the company
to keep on paying It, but a glance at
the meager surplus left on the balance
sheet after writing down Inventories should
have proved the entire improbability of
such action.
However this may be, today's announce
ment was utilized for a fresh demonstra
tion against this stock and against all
others which have a dividend policy pres
ently to determine. A decline of 8
points In Control Leather preferred and
In Remngton Typewriter was accom
panied by such other losses as Dosseseed
In Baldwin Locomotive, 6 in yCruclble
Steel and 1 to 4 points In various other
stocks of the same description. The pure
ly speculative character of the movement
was pretty surely Indicated by the fact
that one-half of the total of shares sold
were those of eight or nine companies
in this group.
Naturally, however, the violence of the
attack deranged the general market and
railways aa well as Industrials lost ground.

New York Cotton.
New York, May 24. The feature in the
cotton market at the opening today was
the unexpected Issuance of June notices
estimated at 1,800 bales. One firm which
was credited with taking up about 20 May
notices Monday issued more than that on
June and other notlcea were supposed to
represent cotton which had arrived here
Just too late for May delivery.
June opened at a decline of 21 points,
with later 8 points lower to 1 points
higher, but the offerings of June seemed
to be absorbed on the decline to 11.80o for
July. Prices then rallied on covering
and the market held fairly steady toward
the end of the first hour, with July ruling
around 12.40c and October, 11.180 or 4
points net higher,
Some New England mill buying was re
ported on the forenoon advance, which ex
tended to 12.440 for July and 11.19c for
October, or about 8jfl4 points above Mon
day's closing figures. Trading became
very quiet around these figures, however.
Offerings were very light during the
early afternoon, with the market selling
about 15 to 19 points net higher on further
covering. This carried July up to $12
and October to 13.26c.

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire,
Chicago, May 24. Bad crop news
is coming from a wider territory and
attracting more attention. This, with
the strong statistical situation in
wheat, is favorable for the bull side
of the market.
A new high was set for July wheat,
while May. was within lc of the best
figure of the season, with the close
well toward the top at net gains of
6 l-46 3-4c. An awakening came
in the other grains, with shorts lead
ing, the buying and with more out
side help. The close was at practical
ly the top for corn and at a moder
ate recession on oats, corn gaining
2 3-83c and oats, 2 7-83 l-8c,
while rye was hard to buy and 5 3-4
7 l-4c higher.
It was a weather market and ner
vousness was to be expected. May
wheat showing increased congtstion
and is hard to buy. Weather and
crop news are the main factors off
setting all bearish influences. May
wheat broke 8c from the early high
on scattered selling, only to advance
13 l-2c from the bettom. Stop order
buying from $1.70 and up to $1.74 1-2
for May and from $1.29 to $1.35 for
July were the features in the last
hour.
New Investment Buying.
It was a big broad market with new
Investment buying based on. unfavorable
weather and crop reports. The break early
was attributed to reports of scattered
showers in the southwest, but they were
denied later.
A significant feature of tbe news was
John Inglls, who I covering the territory
from Hastings to Lincoln, Neb., where the
orop Is losing ground and does not re
spond t rains. Those who know Ne
braska thoroughly claim that the state
never gets too much rain to hurt the
crop. Kansas. Oklahoma and Missouri
reports were less favorable. The Spanish
and Indian cropa are below last year's
to add to the uncertainty as to future
wheat supplies. There were reports of
rain and hall damaging the crop in south
western Minnesota.
Big buying of corn and oats by Bart
lett Frazier, an elevator house, was fol
lowed by other houses comng on an
oversold market combined with the ad
vance in wheat lifted both markets out
of the rut and sent July corn to 64 c
and September to 67c, with the finish at
almost the top. July oats were up to
48c, and September to 45c, with the
close o from the best point. Both
markets have been heavily oversold, and
despite the heavy hedging aales against
country offerings, they were readily ab
sorbed and a decidedly better feeling
existed.
New York interests were good buyers
of July rye and shorts took May. A
large part of the trading was in closing
spreads, selling wheat and buying rye.
The seaboard sold 240,000 bushels for ex
port. This, with the advance In wheat,
carried May rye to $1.69, July to $1.28,
and September to $1.13.
Pit Notes.
Leaders In the grain trade say that aa
long as the weather is hot and dry the
breaks that come from profit taking are
likely to be short lived. The break today
was regarded as an illustration of what
the trade la to expect. The news was so
strongly bullish on wheat that there Is
more confidence among holders.
It is the gossip of the trade that
Aitel Hanxe, the .New York exporter,
Is the leading long In May wheat and
wants the cash grain to deliver. As there
Is only 4,000 bushels contract wheat In
store in public houses and only five more
business days of May, there are no Indi
cations that the holder of May contrac
tors are not likely to get much cash
wheat on delivery. ,
A sale of 15,000 bushels contract wheat
was made here to go to store and will
be delivered the last of the month. Farm
ers are more disposed to sell old wheat
as prices advance, but have waited too
long to get the full benefit of the top
prices, owing to the uncertainty of It get
ting here In time for delivery on May
sales. The May ia 40o over July and
hard to buy.
Big shorts In corn and oats who have
based theft- selling on the carrying;
charges and free country offerings have
covered a considerable line of corn and
oats and there has been good buying by
strong local Interest in belief that the
weather la too dry.
R. O. Cromwell wired from Weeping
Water, Neb.: "Western Nebraska is in
good shape, but central and eastern Ne
braska may make only , fair and slightly
under average yields, although there are
some very good localities. Weather has
been about the reverse of - desirable for
a good crop." i
Inglls wired from Lincoln, Neb.: "Hast,
ings to Lincoln, wheat losing ground; does
not respond to rain or weatMr-r condi
tions; losing color; some good wheat near
Dorchester and Crete. Corn, where up,
shows good stand. Oat fairly, good. Now
hot and forcing."
