CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-Wheat-Inter-
est in the wheat market shows con-
siderable abatement, and the market,
while firm. does not indicate any
urgent buying. The statistical posi-
ton makes the immediate future ap.
pear bearish. but the outlook for the
crop year is sufficiently bullish to
serve as excellent protection for the
trader who is willing to await breaks
before buying. The market from
day to day, will, no doubt, follow the
variations of domestic and foreign
news. but. regardless Of temporary
influences, the supply. which is
hardly equal to the wofld,s consump-
tive requirements. will go into COM
vancing prices.
Corn-The situation in corn is lit
tie changed as yet. Observers of the
live stock market and of the country
and of the situation generally, are
disposed to look for lower prices.
Shippers and consumers have very
light stocks, In most cases practdc-
ally none, and the scarcity Of corn is
a barrier between the two. The re-
cent action Of the December into
going to a wider discount under the
May, has discouraged bullish activ-
tiles. On the other hand, it does not
yet seem wise to- press the selling
side OF December corn, because the
prospect OF an accumulation under
prevailing conditions is rather re-
mote. Cash business exceeds pub
lie reports.
Oats-Have not responded to the
weakness recently shown in other
grains. On an early bulge today the
May delivery was close to the form
er high price. There is remarkably
good demand for spot oats, and the
pressure from the large accumulate
is negligible.
