Upturn in Wheat
Winnipeg May Delivery Sells
at Premium Over Chicago
May, First Time
°^__
By CHARLES J. LEYDEN.
Universal Service Staff Correspondent.
i Chicago. May 21.—Numerous reports of
nop deterioration from southwest sec
tions of the winter wheat belt, together
I with independent strength in the Canad
ian market, effected a brick upturn in
the local pit today. Western Kansas and
Nebraska especially told of the crying
need of rainfall, in aoine spots there being
an absolute lack of precipitation elnce the
latter part of March.
Wheat closed He to ?%c higher, corn
Mas He Ho advanced, oata were un
changed to He higher-end rye ruled Ho
to \c advanced.
As hae been predicted, the Winnipeg
May delivery sola to a premium over the
Chicago May today—the first time on the
crop, while the July delivery in that mar
ket finished at the narrowest discount so
far. Spreading operations between the
two markets continued, with the ex
porters ths best buyers of the offering?
in the Canadian market.
May corn and other deliveries acted
firm today. Apparently the depression
exerted by the threats of heavy shipments
of com headed here for May delivery was
short-lived. Cash premiums here closed
as much as lc higher. The primary move
ment wae only moderate.
Oats were in moderate trade and firm.
The cash demand strengthened appreci
ably. tylth prices He higher at the close.
Rye followed wheat to higher levels.
Trade was more active, with good buy
ing noted through commission houses.
Provisions were weak and sharply
lower at the close. Lard wae 7tjc to
12Ho -lower and ribs were 2He to 10c
down.
Pit Note*.
Aside from temporary selling of In
fluential character, apparently !n the
nature of profit-taking, there whs little
; other pressure In the wheat pit. The
opinion prevailed that if the uncertainty
! over possible legislative enactment at
Washington was eliminated, speculation
would liven materially and prices perma
nently advance. The fundamental situa
tion certianiy sizing up well for the
bulls.
Foreign news was encouraging. The
oontlne-nt was credited wtih buying wheat
more freely, wtih exporters holding firmer
ideas on prices. When a foreign buyer
■will follow an advance in the market, as
has been the case the Taat few days,
there must be something in the claims
that Europe needa wheat and plenty
f of it.
The marked stability of the Winnipeg
| market has reassured many of the bulls.
who Incidentally place more significance
\ to the reports of wheat going back in this
f country as a result. The swing is for
f less production throughout the world.
I with the present situation one of normal
j | supplies only, compared wtih over produc
1 I tlrn at the start of the crop year.
The weekly Kansas state report says
3 that much damage to the wheat crop
* 3n the eastern third of the state Is due
I to the infectation of hessian fly. This
| ' v as considerable news to the trade. Com
; plaints of fly from Kansas previously has
I come from the northern end northwest
i I ern pert of the state. All reports lndi
V « ate that the glowing prospects In the
| southwest have been shattered material
•I ly and prediction is made that unless
2, rainfall is experienced presently there
I' ’will be widespread damage confirmations.

Stock Under Heavy Pressure
for Months—New York
Market Generally
Strong Otherwise.
nj RICHARD snuAKi.
tnlveriftl Service Financial Editor.
New York, May 21.—United State* Rub
ber common, which Jn 1920 sold aa high
as 143%. sold today at 22% and closed
at 23%, or a net loss of 2% for the day.
The stock hss been tinder heavy
pressure for months. The unsettled con
dition of the rubber industry and the
pronounced decline in the price of raw
rubber in the last year have combined
to upset, the calculations of manufactur
ers of rubber. Men well informed as to
rubber believe a turn for the better is not
far distant. ,, ’
Despite the extreme weakness of United
Staten Rubber, the stock market was
generally strong today. Gloom consequent
to the passage o%* the bonus measure
was dissipated and there was a sharp re
covery from the decline of the day be
fore. Haifa and industrial shared «:IIk«
in the upturn of prices. There were fairly
large transactions in f'orn Products. C.
<fc O., American Can. A*. S. Steel. Phila
delphia A Reading Coal and Iron. Stan
dard OH of New Jersey, Southern Pacific.
Colorado Fuel A Tron and American Tele
phone A Telegraph, the gains In these
"hares ranging from 1% In steel t# 2%
In Reading Coal A Iron.
Sentiment was pronouncedly better.
Transact ions were not large, aggregating
only 632.400 shares, but the gains In both
rails and industrials averaged fully a
point. . ,
No definite improvement in the steel
industry is indicated in the weekly re
ports of the two publications looked upon
as leaders in that field.
Cotton wae strong throughout the day.
Weather reports were uniformly unfavor
able.
Cotton was off allghtlr.
Sugar was slightly higher.
Wheat (Chicago) up %e.
Copper off %c a pound.
Foreign exchange, except franc*, was
practically unchanged French francs up
about in points and Belgian up If- The
Improvement in French franc* was
ascribed to a better political outlook.

V/
New York, May 21—Favorable devel
opments In tax legislation and the bul
wark of easy money today offset the ef
fects of the bonus enactment on bond
trading and prices registered moderate
Improvement. Investment buying, how
ever, wa* turned again from the Liberty
bond list Into high grade railroad securi
ties and foreign obligations.
Indications that the conference in
Paris between French government offl
ciais and leaders of the new majority
In parliament would result In a con
tlnuance of sound financial policies led
to a brisk upturn in Franch governmental
and municipal issues towatd the close
of the market. The French 8e rebounded
to par and some of the municipal liens
sold more than a point higher The
trend of these bonds followed in line
with the Improvement In the franc.
Ducal traction iesuee and rubber com
peny liens were the only conspicuous weak
spots In the day's trading Interborough
mortgagee reflected speculative uneasi
ness over the company's wage difficulties,
leading other rapid transit and street
railway bonds Into lower ground. Un
favorable dividend rumors contributed to
the weakness of United S’ates Rubber
7 %s and Kelly-Springfleld 8s. the latter
dropping almost 3 points to a new low
for the year at 91. _ .
Investment circles were Interested by
the anouncement that the city of New
York would open bide on June 3 for
$137,400,000 corporate stork, notes and
bonds. Virtually all the leading invest
ment banks, it was reported, w.xuld com
?ete for the business A Deftrolt $19
80 000 public improvement and utility
Issue, It was believed, also would draw
numerous bids ^ _ ...
Early offering Is scheduled erf a $10,
000.000 Minnesota rural credBt Issue.
Bankers will sell tomorrow 100.000
Portland Electric Power 6s at 94 to yie.d
more than s%_ per cent. Reports were
circulated on wall street that the Can
adian Pacific Railway company was ne
gotiating with bankers for the Bale of
$25,000,000 4 per cent debentures.
