CHICAGO, Oct. g. - Despite optimistic
predictions OF a reoord-breaking crop by
Government officials and increased re-
ceipts wheat prices moved up at tho

perplexing problems confronting them
Prices reacted in the afternoon and all
OF the early gains were cancelled. The
late dealings found the general level
fractionally under last night. The Gov
ernment estimate of n winter wheat crop
OF 345. 900 bushels was responsible for
the reaction.
Trading in corn was steady, with prices

pesred stronger than the wheat markets.

bushels OF wheat. 100000 bushels of II
