, which ranged from xto INC higher,
/ with May at $1.2SA@h and July at
$1.21x to 1.22A. was followed by a de-
cline to well below Saturdays closing
figures.
An upturn subsequently took place
as q result of fresh assertions tnat
much damage to the winter crop was
likely to be caused by the prevailing
low temperatures. The smallness Of the
increase in the Uniteds States visible
supply total acted also as a stimulus to
the bulls. Prices closed strong l to INC

July at $1.22.
Prospects Of enlarged receipts had a
depressing effect or corn. Besides there
were reports Of beneficial rains In Ar
