Chicago The wheat trade looked
in vain for a stimulus Monday and
went on selling at new bargain
prices.
Nearly five cents a bushel was
shorn from prices that prevailed Sat
urday, and the Farmers National
Grain corporation continued to ab
sorb high grade country run wheat
wherever it was offered at or below
the government sanctioned loan
value.
At Minneapolis the Minnesota
Wheat Growers appealed to farmers
to borrow on their wheat rather than
sell at prevailing low levels.
Monday's losses on the Chicago
board of trade ran from 3 7-8 to 4
1-2 4 5-8 cents a bushel. At the
last, March wheat sold at $1.13 1-4
to 3-8 as much as 4 3-4 cents under
the loan worth of the equivalent
grade of cash wheat; May at $1.17
7-S to $1.18; July at $1.19 5-8 to 3-4
and September at $1.22 to 1-4.
One of the few hopeful news fac
tors in the pit was Saturday's an
nouncement that the farm board had
created an advisory wheat committee
to meet In Chicago Wednesday. This
was widely regarded as the first step
in formation of a stabilization cor
poration, but the news seemed to give
little backbone to a wilting market.

It was this point of supervision
that caused the city council, as well

the fear that acceptance cf the plan
