Show BEAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1931 PAGE TWO Weekly Grain Market .1 Henry Kitcbell ' Webster Author of The Beginners I honestly believe Henry Kitchell Webster knows better how to get the exact architectural proportions he wants in constructing hi story than any other novelist in America. The empliasis is almost unusually right Every scene, every trick and turn of character is so cleverly prepared for that when it comes it seems inevitable. The amateur who wishes to learn "how to write a story" cannot do better than to study the work of Henry Webster. Only the art is there that There is, it conceals art would seem, no trick about it. You just go ahead and let the characters do what they naturally would. And so the poor amateur will study, I presume, in vain. The rainbow of fulfillment will spring up right before him but he will never find himself at its foot. This skill Mr. Webster '.ms put to all sorts of uses. He has written fine detective stories, charming fantasies, careful studies, but it never fails him. He has not by any means reached the zenith of his career. His "The Beginners" is his best JAMES WEBER LINN in Chicago Herald Examiner. This unusual, typically American story is to run serially in these columns.

Active trading in the future markets advanced wheat reprices c per bushel and was feed in advances moderate flected in in parts grains. Continued dry weather ueu, a. wneai winter of the domestic further slackening in offers of Russian wheat and increased export demand for grain from North America were the principal Ftrengthening factors. Cash prices mostly followed the ad vance in futures. Rye had some independent strength as a result of the short supplies and increased export in quiry from deficit areas in Europe. Flax advanced along with grains but the market was helped by higher prices for linseed oil and meal, WHEAT: World wheat markets al- !so strengthened during the week and Liverpool prices advanced with good outside buying and some slackening in offers.

The new winter wheat crop continued to make favorable progress in the main part of the belt but was hampered by continued lack of soil moisture in Western Kansas and in Southern and Southeastern areas. Additional moisture was helpful in the Pacific Northwest especially in the Eastern wheat belt of Washington where grains are doing well. General rains are still needed however, in the Western part of the Pacific Northwestern wheat belt Seeding of winter wheat ha3 made favorable progress in most countries of Continental Europe and in the United Kingdom. Recent rains have supplied much needed moisture in France, Spain and Italy, and seeding has made good progress, a larger acreage is in prospect in France, according to trade advices although additional seeding will depend on weather conditions. Seeding in the Danubian countries has also made favorable progress and Agricultural Attache Michael reports probable seeding in Bulgaria, Hungary and Yugo Slavia about the same as last year. Some reduction in acreage is in prospect in Rumania, Germany reports seeding well advanced at the first of November with the condition of early seeding satisfactory but that of later sowings less favorable. Russian seedings of all winter grains up to October 25 were reported at 87, 461,000 acres, which represented 82 per cent of the plan and 87 per cent of the total winter seedings last year. Harvesting of new wheat is in progress in early districts of New South Wales, Australia and reports indicate yields above earlier expectations an dexcellent quality. The Argntine acreage is now placed at 17,295,000 acres which is about 20 per cent under the last season's acreage. Crop conditions are favorable and trade forecasts of outturns have revised upward. Domestic cash wheat markets mostly followed the advance in futures.

Mills on the other hand were buying principally for current requirements, receipts of wheat in' the principal Southwestern markets totaled 2,722 cars compared with 4,491 cars for the previous week and 2,1S3 cars for the corresponding week last year. The protein is averaging below that of last season with inspections to date by the Kansas and Missouri Inspection Departments showing and average protein of 11.84 per cent compared with an average of 12.35 per cent for the corresponding months last season. The small percentage of high protein wheat this season has been reflected in a sharp advance in protein premiums. 18 per cent protein wheat was bringing premiums c of per bushel at Kansas City at the close of the week.

These rules at present permit two or three persons to decide what legislation the "representatives" may consider. The Insurgents propose that any 100 Congressmen be allowed to petition for the discharge of a Committee holding up legislation and that action on such legislation may be taken after the mittee is discharged. Such changes as these might pre committees from acting any longer as graveyards to worthwhile legislation originating in the Senate. The Norris Amendment to abolish "lame ducks" and the Senate plan for operation of Muscle Shoals are among the bills that languished for years House committee pigeonholes. It is also the custom of our Representatives to stow away bills emanating from the upper branch of Congress and then take up legislation along the same lines proposed by a member of the House. Such a proceeding is possible under the "gag" rule which the Insurgents would abol- 7 ish. In addition to the Wisconsin group, some Insurgents-includin- g Paul Kvale of Minnesota, Fiorello La Guardia of New York, and a sprinkling of rebels are expected to ask for a liberalization of House proceedings. They will probably get it Loss of their votes would mean giving the Democrats control of the House, and what good would a gag rule be to the G. O. P.. ? this place.
