It may be that the reluctance of the Pennsylvania Railroad company to accept and act upon the order is sued by the Federal Railroad Labor board will direct attention to some of the intimations which were con tained in the testimony given to the senate committee on Interstate Com .merce early in the hearings before that committee. It seemd to be the 'view of Mr. Warfield, who is presi dent of the organizaiton whose mem bers are the owners of some $11,000, 000,000 of railroad securities, that there might be friction or unsatisfac tory adjustment of labor conditions due to the action of this federal toard. Mr. Warfield thought there should be perfect co-ordination be tween this and the other govern mental board. He furthermore inti mated that it would be1 the better part to adopt if the railroads were oermitted to nialep ai?rempn with tU.: t i.t e : uicir ciiimujo iiciuic rcivrruiir iiucs- tons of this kind to the federal board t i . i c It was observed tha Senator Cum- min and one or two other senators who are members of the commit tee, questioned MrV Warfield upon this part of his testimony apparent ly with the desire to net a coorl un derstanding of what should be the true relation of the Federal Labor board to the railroads respecting the , , . . . rjgvMestion of wages and kindred mat- t ters. i The Pennsylvania Railroad company after long study perfected a dan for co- jrompany. The pla resembled In some of ivniurw .ini uu wniQii was aaopiea by the Standard Oil company of New lltrsey and a year or two earlier by the iiiunBi v.aa xvefriHier company 01 iay ton, O, The employe were to make free choice of those who were to represent them In meetings between these repre antatlva and the repreaentatlves of the company. But It waa realised that It was Imperative that the representatives of the wag earner be untrammeled In any way In making their choice.. Thle Involved the use of a secret ballot. It wes with the secret ballot that the recent elections of representative of the. men employed by the Pennsylvania, were conducted. Every man who voted felt safe because his bal lot was secret, A plan of thla kind has worked admirably with the Standard Oil company of New Jersey and with the Na tion ( ash register company. The federal railroad boafd ha no authority over these two corporations. A Drastic Order. But It ha authority over the railroads, and It made use of that authority In or dering a nsw election by the Pennsylvania , employes and alao ordering that the name employes ant i of the voter voter be written upon his. ballot. W 1 1MB UK uuu course will put an end to sa lt might ' lead to harmful con- , j crecy it r sequences, it wouia expose tne voter to ids criticism ok union jeaaers ana u wouia bring before the eyes of the Pennsylvania management the name of. the voting em ployes and might It the management was o disposed, lead to discrimination. Why the federal labor board has com manded a new election with an open bal lot upon the Pennsylvania lines Is a mys tery. It may trad to the abandonment of the Pennsylvania plan. It certainly points to reluctance on the part of other railroad companies, some of which are now con sidering the adoption of the Pennsylvania plan, to put a plan of -that kind Into effect. The Issue thus raised Is sure to be brought to the attention ..of the aenate Xgmmittee on lnteratate commerce, it a lu-n nnci a concrete liiueiraiiun 01 one or the points brought out In testimony already' given before that committee which seemed to hint that the federal railroad labor board may so act as to Interfere with a satisfactory redjustment of the re lations between the railroad companies of the United State and their employes. It might even result In the enforced eatam lishment of the closed shop. - An Increasing; World Trade, In one of the article of C. W. Barron recently published, he reported that some what in excess of. 10,000,000 -tons of ship ping are now laid up .throughout the world and that Oreat Britain suffers more thnn any other nation from this stagnation. This statement waa published within a day or two after an authentic report of the world' International trade 1 in the year 1920, measured by dollars, was printed that trad in th aggregate I according to tnis report amounted to 1100,000,000.000. But in the closing year of the war the value of that trade was 153,000,000,000 and waa only .S40.000.000, 000 In the year when the war began. The wonder Is why with thla unsus pected Increase in the world' interna tional trade, so many millions tons of hips are idle. All the great harbors of the world are reported to contain many vessels which ae anchored in idleness. As almost all the world' International trade Is overseaa entailing the use of vessels. It seems almost paradoxical that In the year 1S20. $100,000,000,000 of trade was the aggregate, whereas in 1919 there was only $63,000,000,000 and yet 10,000, 000 tons of ships are idle. Is it due to an increase In the number of ahlps that have been built? Mr. Bar ron says that England with 23,000,000 tons of shipping, which Is about 40 per cent of the world's tonnage, is the chief sufferer. No new orders for ships have been received by the ship builders In Qreat Britain for months. Aside from this somewhat puzzling sit uation there Is another feature contained In the report that the world's International trade In 1920, was In the aggravate some what in excess of $100,000,000,000. The year 1920 identifies tho beKlnnlng of re cession In prices and depression In Indus tries and trada. Tet the International trade for that year was the largest on record. The world waa buyinar and aelllng In the aggregate enormous quantities of products and yet Industry was depressed, "vy reduction In orlces was under wav and complicated financing waa In progress.

With the visible supply in creasing nearly 10,000.000 bushels there was some selling by weaker longs, but the wheat disappeared so last that holders soon had their con fidence restored and thereafter it was difficult to buy. ht close was near the best points of the day and 2l4 2J4c higher-than Saturday, lhe re port that the German gram commis sion had been given $10,000,000 credit by a New York ,bank was one of the factors in the market. Corn was H7Ac higher and oats finished 'A c higher. Rye advanced I'Ac and barley y2c. Hedging pressure from packers caused a late break in provisions, pork closing 5c higher. but lard was 17433c and ribs 101254c lower. Local cash sales were 175,000 bushels of corn, includ ing 100,000 bushels to exporters: 123,- 000 bushels of oats and 3.000 bushels of barley. Cash wheat premiums were J4J4c higher. Corn basis was lAlAt higher and oats unchanged. Better Tone to Wheat. There was a better tone to the wheat market. There was more confidence uls played by the bullish element In the trade, while the bears were less disposed to prss the selling at the present level of values. There was not any great volume of trading at the start, but a conspicuous feature was the buying ny wire nousea with eastern connections. trices aa- vanced quickly, aa the only selling of con sequence was of Decemrier ana creaitea to northwest account. There waa some buvlnir of December by northwest houses against sales or tnai monm in mo Minne apolis market. Corn svmDathlzed with the wheat mar ket. Sentiment appears to be a little more friendly toward corn. With prices around the low point of the crop and with crop nnn nnt so encouraging, there was less disposition shown to press me uecnne ouy further. There was enough activity in export circles to stimulate activity on the buying side and commission house orders were mainly to buy. Selling was credited mostly to locals. Receipts of corn were 376 cars. ' , n.t. n.intlnpt a firm tone during the earlv trade. Volume ot business was saimi and prices worked within a narrow range, u.jiini nrenaura was felt at the outset and prices started steady to easy, but strong commission houses absorbed the or- ferings on the tup ana a snarp icvu.fj followed. Receipt were 625 cars. Cash rye steady. No. 1 sold at Jl.os, w a .t tl.Oftfiil.08U : No. 3 at $1.07 No! 4 at $1.06 1.05. Receipts, 27 cars. Pit Notes. Oat clearances last week of 2,068,000 bushels were unexpectedly large, and indi cated that export business has been or larger volume than supposed. It is pre sumed that a good many of the oats cleared went out via Montreal. iiu.rnraii cabled there was little Im provement In the corn situation in the United Kingdom. Prices are heavy, with huvera taking hold sparingly. Importers are pressing both Plate and American corn for sale. ' Reports of extremely hot weather are v.Ai AaL.oi4 fmm Danublan countries. The Illinois state report for the week said the outlook for corn in tne soutnern part of the state was unfavorable, but that in the central and northern portiona there had been enough rain as a rule to ma ...uiiu imnrnv, the nutlnok. Private re ports from both this state and central Iowa say that on the uplands corn is not filling out as gooa as mo o .i appearance of the ears would Indicate, and soma estimates place the condition of upland field at not over 50 per cent. Ipdlke Takes Over Elevator, Official advices in regard to the Scandinavian crops say tnat the cereal crops will be exceptionally small this year. John W. Radford, who has been con nected with Pope Eckardt for mony yearB, Is now with the Updike Grain company, having charge of the cash grain depart ment of that firm. The independent elevator at Omaha, the second largest at that point, -has been taken over by the Updike Grain com pany from the Nye-Schneider-Fowler Grain company. The elevator has a ca pacity of about 1,500,000 busheis. French dr" 'h conditions are said to be again bad t ter the rains of a week or so ago, and . jles this morning said tne country was parched. However, the wheat yield was reported good. Advices to Washington said that all crops except heat had ISO suiierea iu " St, Louis reported notices of wheat con signments showing a big falling off.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. New Yrok, Aug. 8. Other move ments on today's markets were quite overshadowed by the spectacular recovery in exchange on London. This rise in sterling began in the for eign market before New York opened for business; the first quotation in Wall street was 3 cents higher than last week's closing and a further ad vance duirng the day brought the rate 12c above Saturday and 17c above the low price of the recent de cline, touched nearly a week ago. No advance ot such rapidity had oc curred in sterling since the spring of 1920, when the heavily committed bear speculators were suddenly con fronted with the announcement of the British exchequer that it had already completed arrangements for paying off England's share of the Anglo- french maturity in November and when the consequent stampede of speculators to cover their rash commitments caused advances on several separate days, raneinp- from 6 to 12J4 cents. Today's market waa nlal nlv Mmiffh rtt the same character, thoueh It was nnt evident what particular incident, if any. naa started the "bear speculators" re treat. Wall Street had a renort that the Oerman banks who lately remitted tho reparation money to New York were buy ing drafts on London Inferentlallv for the return Of the money to Europe. This was rather Imaginative. The known facts of the present situation in the matter of reparations transfers were enough to have placed the speculators in an awkward position. They had baaed their engage, ments In the market, since Mav. on the assumption that all of Germany' thou sand million marks payment up to the end of August would be applied to pur chase of New York dollar credits through sale of sterling drafts: therefore the an nouncement of six weeks ago, that the bankers would use their discretion ss to where the future Installments should be deposited, meant the upsetting of the cal culation. It Is possible that some still more definite program for avoiding too large sales of sterling has been reached by the reparations commission and was earnea in tne market over Sunday. Today' stock market waa In no resnect affected by the advance in sterling. nusiness on tne stock market in fact touched low level for the year; In actual number of shares dealt In thA mnrkat it was the smallest of any full day since July 1, jv. ins unit or prioes was aa mean ingless as SO inactive a market ur,,nM lead one to expect. In the bond market a rainy large business was transacted, but with little change of price. The call money rate held at 6 per cent all day. New York Cotton. New York. Aug. 8. The New Tnrk cot. ton market showed a rather reactionary tendency after the big advance of last week. Disappointing futures in Llvernnni seemed to be offset by the sharp rise in tne uusiness reported there with sales of 16,000 bales, Including 12,600 American, but after opening steady at an advance of 7 points to a decline of 7 points, the local market sold off to 72. nolnt. hcinn Sat urday's closing. There was a good deal of realising by old longs, and some south ern selling on the set back, while offer ings were absorbed by commlsainn hnmu and trade buying promoted by continued bullish crop advices, particularly from the southwest. On the mld-mornino rAnMinn "Vi,n. declined to 20 points net lower, Trading then became less active and the mar ket Was OUIet and steady at nnnn t s or 10 points from the lowest. Kames are not fully maintained owing to continued realising and prices were barely ateady during the afternoon at 10 to 25 points net lower. New York Coffee. New York. Aug. 8. The market fnr cof fee futures was quiet and rather irregular today. Easier Rio exchange rates were offset by higher mllrei price In the Bra. slltan markets, but later onnnlnr nr.. changed to two points higher. The market here eased slightly on near months under scattering liquidation. .Brokers with New Orleans connection were buyers at the opening. Otherwise there was no special trading features, with May holding around $7.67. or about two points net higher, while September eased off from 6.55 to 6.49c, or six point net lower, fan 01 inis loss was recovered later, with the market closing net one point lower to three points higher. , Sales were estimated at approximately 34,00 bags.
