Feud Marks Race In Illinois Vote
In Illinois a high profile primary centers on the senate race with Congresswoman Ruth Hanna McCormick and Senator Charles S. Deneen as leading rivals for the Republican nomination. Deneen defeats Medill McCormick, McCormick’s late husband, and McCormick later died, while widow McCormick challenges for the seat. James Hamilton Lewis returns to politics, and Oscar De Priest seeks renomination in a crowded field. Illinois lawmakers face large congressional turnover as most incumbents run again, and the world court stance shapes the contest.

Export Slump Cuts North American Wheat Exports
Europe imported 180,000,000 bushels less North American wheat from Aug 1 to Feb 21 than the prior year, with world shipments down from 548,000,000 to 365,000,000 bushels. Reasons include European millers using more native grain and higher duties, Russia re-entering the market, and larger Australasian and Argentine crops. Domestic stocks remained high as exporters took lower prices to move grain. Two rings of gold and silver attend a Graele church marriage ceremony.
