points on poor cables and a favorable
weather map. In the early trading the
market hesitated because of the tendency
| of bears to watch weather conditions.

| the market was allowed to take care OF

| there was just enough selling of a scalp

the old crop months and 5 to points
| over on the new crops. This rise was
| bas ed on weather forecast promising
| general rains in the western belt and
| In Mississippi. The higher level of values

toward noon OF sending prices to new
low levels for the morning, the more ac-
