CHICAGO, March 1- Wheat prices dipped about cent, rallied to cent to above the previous close and then finished today's session lower to higher compared with yesterday. Brokers attributed mill and commercial purchases or dealers basing action on reports of crop damage in some localities and producers' requests for higher loan rates. The tense situation in the Balkans as well as elsewhere in Europe and the Orient continued to disturb trade. The Santa Fe Railroad's survey estimating loss of winter wheat in Kansas may average 10 to 15 per cent attracted attention, but the road pointed out abandonment may not be greater than usual and the moisture situation is the best in several years. The secretary of the Missouri Grain, Feed and Millers' Association ported complaints of winter killing are coming in and that requests are being received for inspections for collection of crop insurance.
Exporters reported Portugal bought approximately 1,000,000 bushels of Canadian wheat for March shipment from New York and the United Kingdom took moderate quantities for loading at Halifax and St. Johns. Reports of French appeal for United States wheat attracted attention. Corn fluctuated with wheat but showed an easy tendency despite a letup in country bookings, which amounted to only 000 bushels. Soybeans weakened at times in sympathy with the spot market, while rye was strengthened by short coverings.
Oats trade was very quiet. An increase in Chicago lard stocks during February weakened lard prices, CHICAGO GRAIN SALES. Grain future purchases on the Chicago Board of Trade (in bushels, 000 omitted) Friday. Week ago. Year ago.

CENTRALIA, March slight pickup in activity, discovery of the seventh producing formation in the Calvin field of White County, revival of Trenton lime exploration in the Centralia pool and prospects of townsite development at Fairfield featured Illinois oil ploration this week. There were 56 completions in the state 40 producers and 16 dry holes 64 first reports on new wells, indicating a small increase in exploration. Operations totaled 335, including wells drilling, wells rigging up to begin drilling and locations for new wells. Of them 253 were in proven areas and were in wildcat territory. The operations did not include old wells being reworked such as the 25 Trenton lime ventures in the Lake Centralia-Salem field of Marion County which are being deepened from the Devonian lime to the Trenton.
THREE OFSETS STARTED The new producing formation in the Calvin field was the Waltersburg sand which was tapped for the first time by N. V. and Walter Duncan's No. 1 Bramlett. The well produced barrels an hour on pump and three offsets were started.
The field also has production from five sands, the Tar Springs, the Weiler, the Aux Vases, Bethel and a stray sand in the Paint Creek series, and a single lime formation, the McClosky. Besides the Bramlett well, eight others were successfully completed in White County during the week and five tests were abandoned as dry. The county 89 operations included 13 wildcat tests in scattered areas and one of the wildcats, the Halbert No. 2 E. P.
Hubele, south of Maunie, was near completion this week-end in the Palestine sand. The Kingwood Oil Company's No. 1 Porter, south of Carmi and also a wildcat, was drilling below 2854 feet. The Algona Oil Company announced at Centralia this week its No. 1 E.
B. Marshall, northwest of the Centralia municipal park, would be the third well to explore the Trenton lime in the Centralia pool. A derrick has been erected and the well will begin drilling next week. It is now producing from the Devonian lime at 2938 feet. The other two Trenton ventures in the Centralia pool made such small producers that other operators did not begin deep tests.
A good Trenton completion on the Marshall lease, however, possibly would start 8 drilling campaign northwest of this city where some of the state's largest Devonian wells were completed last spring and summer. In Wayne County the Watkins and others No. 1 Pfeiffer, one mile west of Fairfield, flowed 27 barrels of oil in 45 minutes in drill stem test of the lower McClosky lime and it now is being completed in that formation. The well found no saturation in the upper McClosky which is productive in two other small producers in that area, but when deepened the saturation in the lower MeClosky was encountered. Because of its proximity to Fairfield, townsite development already is being anticipated there.
It was a feature of development in the four-county area which re- Railroads Show Better Income Trade Expansion Last Year Increased Traffic, Says Jones By Globe-Democrat and New York Times Staff Writer. WASHINGTON, March net income earned by American railroads in 1940 was less than one-fifth of the 1929 figure, industrial expansion during the last year has brought about heavier traffic, larger revenues and improved income, Jesse Jones, Secretary of Commerce, announced today. Carloadings fell somewhat short of the 1937 total, but the tonnage of freight carried last year was the largest in a decade, while gross revenues, net operating income and net income were the highest since 1930. However, as compared with 1929, operating revenues were nearly -third lower and operating income was down more than per cent. Nearly a third of railway mileage was in receivership and net operating income was only 110 per cent of fixed charges.
Freight carloadings increased 7.2 per cent over 1939. Freight revenue increased 8.8 per cent over 1939, although freight revenue per ton-mile dropped from .973 cents in 1939 to about .95 cents. Passenger traffic in 1940 was more than 3 per cent above 1939, but revenues were off slightly on account of a reduction of fares in the Eastern district from 2.5 to 2 cents a mile. Total operating revenues were the highest since 1930 and up 7.5 per cent from 1939. Net income was $191,000,000, $97,900,000 more than: in 1939.
The war brought a marked improvement in the revenues and operations of American shipping during 1940. The gain in operations occurred in the face of a substantial rise in ocean freight rates and the of American vessels from barring. section of the world under the neutrality act of November, 1939. While the act heavily reduced American tonnage in service to Europe and the Mediterranean, nage on African and Far Eastern routes approximately tripled and traffic to South America was up about one-half, for a net increase of about 15 per cent in American shipping on all overseas routes over the prewar total. Cotton Rallies Toward Last By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March lastminute flurry of demand bumped cotton futures out of a morning trading rut today. The final range was unchanged to 5 points higher. Worth street cloth dealers revised estimates of Friday's turnover upward to between 20,000,000 and 25.000,000 yards. Prices on most staple constructions were boosted a yard. The buying flurry was apparently touched off by the belief among large converters that higher wage rates in the textile industry were in the offing.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries has just completed a seagull census and has made arrangements to have eggs collected an 1 marketed during the spring laying season. Seagull eggs long have been a favorite food of tardy British fishermen.
According to the Natural History Society the eggs taste like duck eggs. The government announced yesterday that chicken feed would be rationed beginning April 1 because of inadequate supplies. sulted in the completion of seven producers and one dry hole this week. latter was Robinson's No. 1 Bothwell, in Barnhill township of Wayne County.
All seven producers were holdings of the Pure Oil Company, three in Richland, two in Wayne, two in Jasper and none in Clay County. Activity in Clay was confined to the beginning, of a wildcat, the Warren Bradshaw No. 1 Cruse, west of Louisville in Oskaloosa township, and the Pure No. 2 Moseley consolidated, being drilled to the Rosiclare sand in the Clay City township field. All of the producers in the other three counties were in proven areas.
TWO WILDCAT TESTS In Jasper two wildcat tests were active. They are the Buerkle and Schieck No. 1 Payne Heirs, one mile north of the West Liberty field, and the Pure Oil Company's No. 1 Ochs, east of the Boos field. Fayette County had four new producers, all in the northern edge of the Loudon field, and one dry wildcat, the Foster No.
1 Soldner, Farina in Laclede township, abandoned at 2685 feet. The Carter Oil Company announced 8 location for the No. 1 Richards, one mile north of Beecher City and two and one-half miles northeast of production and drilling is to begin next week at a second Fayette County wildcat, the Paul Holleman's No. 1 Kruse, six miles south of the St. James field.
Seventeen derricks could be counted in Mount Carmel and just north of the city limits of the Wabash County seat as townsite development continued at an increasing pace. Seven wells have been completed in the city, one dry hole and eight are drilling. Also in Wabash County, Yingling and others were testing a show in the McClosky lime at their No. 1 Thomas Tanquary, two miles northwest of Bellmont, and Kennard and others No. 1 Harry Brown, two miles southwest of Bellmont, was drilling below 2200 feet.
Both are in wildcat territory. In the Lake Centralia-Salem field, two wells of the Magnolia Petroleum Company are being completed in the Trenton lime as the third and fourth producers from that formation. The wells, the No. 34 and No. 37.
Shanafelt, began flowing from the Trenton when they drilled into the formation and both were shot with nitroglcerin. The No. 32 Shanafelt was on pump this week as a 261- barrel well -second producer in the field. In the Patoka field of Marion County, Gulf's No. 1 L.
P. Hill was completed on pump as a 369-barrel well and the Easton Oil Company's No. 1 Kiest made 144 barrels on pump from the Cypress sand in the area recently opened to exploration. Activity in the Hoodville pool of Hamilton County lessened during the week, but it remained one of the most active fields in the state. Hopes of extending the field to the north were at least temporarily quelled when the Exchange Oil Company's No.
1 Joe Morris found the McClosky lime dry and water in the Aux Vases sand. Two wildcats were active in the county, the Easton Oil Company's No. 1 Prince, preparing to test the Benoist sand, and the R. B. Martin No.
1 McKenzie, drilling below 3000 feet. A new textbook on the mechanics of airplane metal work, which simplifies the problems involved, lists the essential rules which should be followed in each operation and at the same time points out errors to be avoided, has been written by Alex M. Robson, head of the aeromechanics department of Hadley Technical High School. The first volume of the book on airplane blue-print reading is ins its third edition. The second volume on airplane sheet metal shop practice, published in November, 1940, is in its second edition.
The third volume on airplane sheet metal patterns will be released tomorrow. In all, 30,000 of the book are in circulation. Robson is now working on the fourth and final volume which will deal with airplane sheet metal repair. FULLY ILLUSTRATED Each of the texts is fully illustrated and deals with a different operation on each page. The purpose of the work to be done is explained and the method outlined.
Robson obtained, his material at first hand. For the last four years he has worked as a mechanic during the summer vacation period at the Curtiss- Corporation factory Lambert Field, and at the Douglas Aircraft plant in Santa Monica. Before he wrote his text he visited the leading airplane plants in the country, and obtained the prints which he uses in his from them. boules Copies of his texts are now used at Hadley, in the Naval Training base at Jacksonville, in CCC camps, private aviation schools and national defense schools in various parts of the United States, as well as in vocational institutions. In preparing the volumes, Robson was assisted by Gordon Roach, Harold Koeln and John Gadell, instructors at Hadley, and William Diepenbrock, a draftsman the Curtiss plant.
A native Vancouver, British Columbia, Robson first worked as a cabinet maker and later became vocational instructor at a school in Penticton, Canada. In 1925 he served as trade school instructor at West Palm Beach, and three years later became supervisor of the aviation schools operated by the Universal Air Lines, a subsidiary of the American Air Lines. He has been at Hadley since 1931. addition to his airplane sheet metal book, he has written a text on aviation business training and aviation mechanics in conjunction with the late Capt. Leland Miller of the United States Army; and in 1939 he published another book on aircraft metal work at the request of the United States Federal Security agency.

Aldermen to Let Three Bills Die No Action Likely on Zoning, Ward Vote and Redistricting Three highly controversial bills, which have been pending in the Board of Aldermen for several months, the citywide zoning bill, a measure to provide for the elecbill calling for redistricting of the tion of Aldermen by wards, and a A A A city's 28 wards, apparently will die in the present session of the board, which will end early next month. The fate of a fourth bill, the municipal civil service enabling measure, is uncertain, with indications it also will not be passed at the present session of the board. Alderman. Charles O'Connor of Sixteenth Ward, chairman of the board's Zoning Committee, said yesterday it appears likely his committee will not act on the zoning bill this session. committee held a meeting Friday, but no action on the measure was taken, he said.
STORM OF PROTEST The bill, drafted by the City Plan Commission after several years of research, was introduced before the board at the beginning of the present session and ran into a storm of controversy during a series of eight public hearings, objectors to the measure far outnumbering proponents. A majority of the Zoning Committee said several weeks ago they favored, sending the bill back to the Plan Commission for amendment to meet the objections, but O'Connor said yesterday this could not be done legally. His committee decided at its meeting Friday more time was needed to consider the bill. The next meeting of the board will not be held until March 14, and O'Connor said he will call another committee meeting before the end of the present session. He indicated there is slight chance the committee will take action on the bill, but added the committee may make a report' on amendments to the Plan Commission.
The bill, he said, then might be reintroduced at the next session of the board. The purpose of the bill is to "put teeth" in the ordinance governing residential zoning, SO that the migration of residents to the county would be halted. Numerous property owners and church groups, who have complained that the new measure is too astringent, have been the cipal opponents of the measure. The bill to provide for the election of Aldermen by wards is at present in the hands of the Leg-: islation Committee, a majority of whose members are opposed to re-. porting it out.
It would change the present method, which provides for the election of Aldermen at large, authorizing the submission of such a charter amendment to the voters at an The bill for redistricting the city's 28 wards calls for the appointment of a committee by the board president to draw up such a change. A number of wards now have twice and three times as many residents as other wards. Members of the Legislation Committee are considering the municicivil service enabling bill. Alderman. B.
J. of the Eighth Ward, chairman of this committee, has indicated no action will be taken on this bill until after a report on the measure made by the Citizens' Survey Committee for reorganization of the municipal government is made public. This 'report has just been printed. Bid. 92 75 3 'Frankie' of Saga Again in Court The saga of "Frankie and Johnnie" was rekindled yesterday in Circuit Court when Miss Frankie Baker of Portland, plaintiff in a $200,000 suit in which she claims her reputation was defamed in a moving picture based on the celebrated story, sought to include Republic Pictures Corporation as an additional defendant.
Her attorney, Joseph McLemore, explained Republic Pictures Corporation, a New York concern, is the parent company for other concerns already served as defendants. Because it has no office in St. Louis, however, it was necessary for McLemore to seek to attach its assets here. The assets are Republic movie films to be distributed to local theaters. McLemore filed an affidavit for attachment and asked the Sheriff's office to seize the films.
However, an agreement was worked out by the attorney and a manager for Republic Pictures Midwest Film Distributors, whereby no attachment was made. Arrangements were made for the New York company to enter its appearance in the proceeding. Had the attachment been acted upon, several theaters served by Republic might have been darkened over the week-end because of lack of films. British Trade Reports Discontinued By Associated Press.
