Bearlsto. Loans up to 30 percent could be made on euch wheat or possibly higher In the case of reputable fanners. Loans to Grain Trade Bearlsto said advances to the grain trade by the banks were higher because of Insurance facilities provided by the futures market of the Winnipeg grain exchange.

Bearlsto traced the bunk loans through country elevators, commission merchants, terminal elevators and exporters. The loans were wiped off when the exporter sold the grain and (he banks were repaid. Charles E. Hayles, general manager of the Canadian Consolidated Grain Company, presented a brief explaining the operations of terminal elevators. With their sites and equipment, the terminal elevators represented an Investment of 170,000,000, he said, PIONEER OF NEEPAWA DIES FRIDAY AT 85 William Conncll.
