JOSEPH BOUGHAN (Associated Press Market Editor) CHICAGO June So-called devils" playing the mischief with corn fields and kiting corn market prices arg more and more becoming the focUa of grain trade interest The red devils referred to are chinch bugs in uncounted millions reported as threatening heavy damage to the new corn crop throughout Illinois West Central Indiana Two-Day Tour Over New Sierra Thoroughfare Is In Prospect 8 STOCKS CLOSING PBICES Plodding Market Advance Led By Commoditn By CLAUDE A JAGGER NEW YORK June Commodities with the notable exception of -wheat and best-grade bonds led a plodding advance in financial markets this week The price structure in nearly all markets seemed to be resting on fairly firm ground It was tested by the news of the German moratorium on foreign diebts default on debts to the United States by England France and other war allies and by uncertainty over a steel strike which was prolonged until the week-end None of the developments Introduced anything essentially new into the financial picture In fact Wall Street judging by the reaction of the markets seemed to accept them as merely the clearing away of overhanging developments Postponement of the steel strike however definitely was cheering In response to that and the rush to wind up this session of congress for the Summer stocks edged upward at the week-end into new high ground for the recovery from tne mid-May lows The Standard Statistics Company average for ninety stocks closed the week at 823 compared with 812 at the end of the preceding week the market having apent most of the interval backing and filling in a narrow range Speculative activity remained at low ebb while markets waited for a clearer picture of business prospects for labor clouds to lift and while banks and investment houses completed their preparation for severance of underwriting and banking business in accordance with the national banking act of 1933 Volume on the stock exchange for the totaled 4532539 shares compared with 4542620 the preceding week Turnover in bonds was greater as that market pursued its gradual climb many high-grad issues touching new tops for the year or longer Government obligations were outstandingly firm and yields continued to lecline Bond volume on the stock exchange was $74785000 in principal amount compared with $65151000 the week previous Strength in the bond market as well as in other markets in part was a reflection of a very comfortable banking position A further gain of $108000000 carried federal reserve member bank reserves to a new peak Excess reserves were estimated to have reached a previously unequalled total of $1750000000 1 RISING COTTON CLOSES STEADY A Story About Wolves Their Life And Loves Itinerants Of The Timber Lands By Gray McClintock New York: Thomas Crowell Company ($2) Whether you generally like animal stories or not you will like this one It is an outstanding story of three timber wolves and a Russian wolf hound who is lured away by Rada but that is getting ahead of the story Gray McClintock knows as few men do the ways of the wild and the manner in which be pictures Rada and Lemus and Bentick and even Alex is proof that in the Northwest the animai which is most respected by man and beast is the timber wolf You are permitted (because of personal observation and deduction) to sense what the wolves of this story are thinking as well as doing and you are convinced that these animals practice a psychology which is superior at times to human experience The story starts with Rada luring Lemus (the name is adapted from the Cree meaning bad unruly shameless) to her in her first mating season The birth of the pups and the trek across country after the pups have been taken for a museum Thus do Rada and Lemus become wanderers An extraordinary feature of the story comes when Lemus cuts himself badly on a barbed wire fence and Rada cares for him Rada is a temptress and she uses the most hideous of means to lure Alexis away from his protected life The sharp life with the hound against the background of his wolf ancestors is most interesting The three wolves are brought into the conclusion along with the hound when the district is being rid of wolves once more The description of how the government men set out to do this is Informative and interesting Southern and Eastern Iowa and parts of Missouri To such an extraordinary degree has the Infestation apparently developed that numbers or grain men from Chicago will travel far and near into the field over Sunday to investigate the situation for themselves Contrasting with severe declines of wheat values the corn market this morning showed 1-Ic a bushel gain as against a week ago Simultaneously wheat was 3c to down oats unchanged to higher and provisions 15 to 50c advanced Although leading grains experts point out that the usual trade instinct is to go slow on the buying side during June speculative purchasing of corn is sensationally active at times A special reason given is that corn pound for pound is at present the cheapest feedstuff available and that there is a general expectation large quantities of corn will be absorbed by the gov-errhnent for relief purposes Additional factors stressed are prospects of only short crops of all other grains and of hay Wheat prices are largely a reflection of fast progress of harvesting of the domestic Winter crop Southwest Oats buying has been checked owing to imports of oats from Argentina although actual business of this kind has been small Provisions are up responsive to action of hog values PRICE RANGE SATURDAY CHICAGO June 16 NEW YORK June 16 (IP) An early advance of 12 to 13 points in the cotton market to-day in response to relatively firm Liverpool cables the progress of the gulf storm toward the belt and postponement of the steel strike was followed by reactions The failure of buillsh features to bring in a more general or gressive demand was

Up A Saga The Road Leads By Knut Hamsun New York: Coward-Mc-Cann Inc ($3) By VIRGINIA LEE It is not necessary to have read the preceding novels of Knut Hamsun which introduce the characters carried through The Road Leads On to enjoy thoroughly this latest work from his pen However if one is familiar with his other Norland novels such as Children Of The Age Segelfoss Town and Vagabonds there is no doubt The Road Leads On will hold a deeper significance for it is the bringing together of all the numerous threads of his former novels As though the author were putting a final border of pieces about a giant mosaic closing in an impressive panorama of life and inscribing the word Finis on a piece of art Hamsun in his seventy-fourth year has produced a volume which Itnits together and lends perspective to his previous work The book is a story of Altmulig Gordon Tidemand the gypsy Otto Alexander and Gammelmoderen The beginning of the book introduces Theodore paa Bau who although he aspired to marriage with Marianne Holmengraa is satisfied with the daughter of the sexton very much younger than Theodore To them various daughters were born and finally came a son and although there was a misgiving in the heart of Theodore concerning the brown eyes of this son he kept his counsel and did not ask the gypsy Otto Alexander to leave his employment for Otto tne best man Theodore had with the salmon net? Son la Different Thus he stayed on and the son who was named Gordon Tidemand grew and thrived as the son of Theodore paa Bau In time Theodore passes on and the son takes his place but a different type man is this son who has been educated abroad and evidences characteristics not at all like Theodore's It is into his life that Altmulig comes (a name which signifies handyman) and certainly he proves to be such It is the doctor's daughter who recognizes him as August from Polden It is also through the doctor and Esther that August comes into money he had in Polden and which he did not know until the wife told him Gammelmoderen meaning old woman in the sense of affection as one will say or girl" is the mother of Gordon Tidemand and it is she who balances him in his early business transactions with Altmulig The scene is in Segelfoss The author would have you believe people worry over the same bitter facts regardless of their station in life Although progress automobiles factories money a id business have replaced the last pathetic vestiges of a once healthy feudal ism the fundamental problems of the Segelfoss people remain the same Grand Tragedy Through the pages parades the gy-psy woman Aase forever pronouncing curses on the people of Segelfoss who fear and dread her more than a plague It is Aase who is the final undoing of Altmulig if not by her curse pronounced upon him then by her actual appearance on the narrow road to scare his great band of sheep over the cliff into destruction It is grand tragedy Altmulig seeing all his fortune all his great desire and ambition swept into nothingness grabs hold of a great sheep and also is borne over the cliff While one has a comment for the relation between Gammelmoderen and the gypsy Otto one can not help admiring him in his secret which he bolds next his heart and which he might have used at any time to his own selfish advantage But he goes out of the story and Gordon Tidemand and others (ex- cepting of course the mother) never knew the absolute truth about the illegitimacy of birth no doubt the book is a the people of Segelfoss people are developed surety of approach which Hamsun one of the creators of characters of modern

TJ 1 Russia Fills Planting Quota By FRANK I WBLLER (Associated Pres Farm Editor) WASHINGTON June Russia is officially reported to have fui filled her Spring wheat seeding plan by planting a total of 57300000 acres as of June 1st Sowing since that date will be In addition to the plan The Russian barley plan was fulfilled and the oats plan almost completed by June 1st The acreage not only is much above a year ago but It is the best progress in Spring seeding since the collectivization movement began Wheat acreage estimates totaling 210524000 acres have been received from twenty-seven Northern Hemisphere countries and two Southern Hemisphere countries This is an increase of 13 per cent over tha acreage reported by the same countries last year But poor crop conditions in most of the important producing areas indicate a reduction in the 1934 outturn Europe is suffering from an unusual lack of rain which the official believes points to a reduction in grain production of from 25 to 30 per cent below the average of tha last three years The condition of grain crops in Canada at the first of the month was considerably under the longtime average that of Spring grains being the lowest in 26 years The prospects for Fall wheat were the poorest on record June rainfall however has greatly relieved the prolonged drought in the provinces China is harvesting her Wins4 crop which is said to be somewhat above last year's outturn The Chinese expect a larger cotton acreage than last year Present prospects indicate Europe will harvest good fruit crops this year unless the drought
