Moves Higher in
Broader Trade
Best Levels Shaded Late in

- By CHARLES J. LEYDEX,
(niven-.nl Service Staff Correspondent.
Clilcngo. May 20.—Displaying much
bolter “form, ’ wheat /prices moved higher
today In *n appreciably broader trade.
Best levels were shaded late in the day
because of the abrupt break in May corn.
Independent strength at Winnipeg, a
livelier export call and predictions that
the production of wheat in Europe this
Itson was to be greatly reduced all
-ved to engender an Improved 'feeling,
vyheat closed %c to %c higher, corn
is %c lower to %c higher, oats were
c down to %c higher ami rye ruled un
anged to %c higher.
Spreading between this market and
tnnipeg continued to be a popular trans
ition. ♦ There was buying of July here
hlnat sales at Winnipeg, also sales of
b Chicago September against purchases
'the October in the Canadian market,
[sort sales were estimated at 600,000
phels. largely Manitoban, but also some
Prospects that considerable corn will i
id Us way to this market before the |
piratlon of May frightened many of
me scattered longs out. May corn sold
at a premium of 2c over ttfe July early,
which pit observers said culminated stop
loss orders. Milwaukee was reported of
fering corn here, while there were other
/reports that No. 3 yellow corn was bought
back from the east at 2c under the May
delivery.
Oats were Irregular, wtili corn, at the
last. The weakness in May corn led to
scattered liquidation in May oats.
Trade In rye was spiritless Bullish
news on this grain counts for little. Re
ports of a poor crop In Germany had no
effect whatsoever.
Provisions were reactionary within a
narrow range. Lard was 2%c to 6c lower
and ribs were unchanged.
Pit Notes.
By emphasizing the rapidity with which
. the consuming world has eaten into the
\ freak record Canadian crop of wheat the
1 last year, the grain trade Is announcing
I the fact that the world over-production
! is about a thing of the past. Every re
port from wheat growing countries prac
tically predicts less production. Ofc'ing
to the scarcity of pota’oea abroad, Grteat
1 Britain and Ireland are expected to take
4,600,000 bushels of foreign wheat weekly
for the balance of the season. *
Crops in Germany are said to be poor
at this time, the crop in France is said
to have been greatly over estimated and
it Is reliably claimed at Winnipeg that
the best estimate for this year's Canadian
wheat crop is 350,000.000 bushels. Last
year Canada raised 476.000.000 bushels.
The acreage throughout the prairie prov
inces is not only to be less than a year
!< ago, but seeding operations are behind
schedule, owing to inclement weather.
There was little change in the crop
news and weather. The forecast for the
southwest was for continued cool, with
prospects for showers in some sections.
The winter wheat crop is badly in need
of rain over areas, according' to most re
ports, but damage complaints have not
been sufficiently numerous to attract any
lasting support.
The McNary-Haugen bill was slated to
come up for discussion In the house late
| today. The trade Is closely watching
news from the capital regarding this
measure. The passage of the bill w-ould
greatly unsettle the grain market, and
there ia no telling at this time just what
effect its passage would have finally.
However, it Is questionable whether the
bill will ever pass both houses, and more
questionable that the president will sign
the bill.

| Causes Decline
in Stock Market
Shares Dumped Freely, Prices
Breaking in ^ay to Un
nerve Timid—-New
Lows Set.
By RICUARI) WIM.ANE.
Universal Service Financial Editor.
New York. May 20.—A pronounced de
cline was to have been expected In stock
market prices today a« a result of the
passage of the bonus over the president s
veto. It wouldn’t have been bo heavy,
however, had It not been for the misin
formation given out by the news ticker
people Monday, which led many persons
to buy stocks in the confident expecta
tion that the veto was going to be sus
tained. . .
Shares were dumped rather freely im
mediately after the opening today and
prices broke in n way to unnerve timid
persons. A lot of Issues, some of them
market leaders, dropped to new lows.
Cast Iron Pipe and Dupont were down
6 points In short order; Baldwin. 3 Vs;
American Can, 3%, and General Electric,
|ia, while U. S. Steel was down 1% to
96 H.
Dess important stocks, pf course, suf
fered less for they got less attontlon.
The break was too violent to last.
Dater in the day the bears launched a
drive that stirred the animals up again.
This attack continued until near the
close. Steel common went up to 95. But
for the strength of Chesapeake Ohio
the market probably would have gone
lower. . ,
As It was. C. & O. registered a gain of
1 \ points in the face of a crumbling ten
dency throughout the list.
Transactions aggregated <02.300 shares
The loss In the rails averaged H point
and In the Industrials 1% points. Ralls
still average higher in price than this;
time last year, but industrials average
nearly 4 V6 points lower.
Sugar eased off again, this tims 13 !
points.
Copper advanced V4c per pound.
Foreign exchange was not particularly
active except in the case of francs, which
were lower and apparently again under
speculative pressure. nn
Cotton opened lower and sold off 20
to 30 points from Monday’s closing.

New York Bonds
V/
New York. May 20.—Unsettled by pas
sage of the bonus bill ovel* the nresl.
dent’s veto bond prices today displayed
weakness In the early dealings but later
recovered most of their losses. Selling
pressure at the outset was concentrated
on Liberty bonds, causing recessions of
as much ns half a point. Quick rallies,
however brought quotations hack to near
yesterday’s closing level.
Investment bankers were not Inclined
to fear that the bonus action would have
any serious effect on the bond market.
Easy money. It was said, had created a
fundamentally sound basis for Investment
buying, which would not be seriously im
paired even bj tin tetirdlOR Influence
of the bonus on business and trade. The
fn. » that n(> Immediate financing was
contemplated by the government. It was
felt, might b*' considered favorable.
New financing today was absorbed
quickly despite the general uneasiness In
trading circles. Bankers disposed of $15,
000,000 Great Northern 5s due In 1973 at a
price of 92% to yield 5.45 per cent, with
out recourse to a public offering. Pro
ceeds will be used to reimburse the
road's treasury. A good demand was re
ported for the $9,250,000 Czecho Slovakia
bonds Preparations have been completed
by bankers for offering of the New York
Central .equipment Issue, which awaits
only the authorization of the road’s offi
cials. A $4,000,000 Issue of the Feder. ,
ated Metals corporation 16-year 7« will be
sold tomorrow at par.
Price changes generally were of little
Importance today. An advance In
"Nickel Plate" sixes was believed to re
flect preparation for an additional bond
offering. Wickw Ire-Spencer 7a declined
further following official recommenda
tions of a readjustment of the company’s
capital structure.
