Eighteen months ago France wanted

whoever says a word Of peace in the

demands that those charged with the

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on BOARD of Trade,

CHICAGO, Dec. 2s.-Despite numerous
rallies wheat today averaged lower, in
fluenced largely by decline at Liverpool.
The close was unsettled, varying from 1lsc
off to sc up, with May at 81 247s0i. 70.
and July, H.16J. Corn gained ikd%c and
oats, lB11Rc. In provisions the outcome
ranged from 25c decline to a shade ad-
vance.
Bears in wheat appeared to regard the
setback shown by Liverpool quotations as
decidedly significant. In this connection
a leading authority said that United
States exports up to January 1 would be
10000 bushels less than at the CORE
spending time last year. whereas the
primary arrivals had overtaken those OF
a year ago. and the outlook wos for
steady increase of the domestic visible
supply total. There were advlces also
that the Argentine harvest was turning
out better than expected.
Bullish crop estimates from Kansas
caused one OF the temporary rallies In
wheat. Another transient upturn was
more or less lowered by news that an
embargo on shipments of grain to Phila-
delphia had not been removed.
Notwithstanding that corn at times
showed sympathy with the wheat weak
ness, prices during the greater part OF
the day were inclined to advance. Higher
cable quotations tended to help the bulls
and so, too, did diminished estimates OF
the Kansas crop.
Oats were dominated by the strength OF
