CLEAN UP ON GRAIN
Allies Have Made SS.5OO.OOO in Two
Months on Chicago Market.

Chicago, April 20.-The allied gov
ernments, thru Chicago brokers. were
credited today with having made a
profit of more than s3,50O,000 in the
last two months in the grain market
by changing from one option to the
other. This profit, it is said, was
made by selling July wheat and buy
ing the September option at approx
imately 80 cents below the July price.
Allied agents recently sold more
than 100000 bushels of May wheat
in an endeavor to block the price rises,
and according to brokers, made a
large gain on the. transaction. Agents
of the allied governments have bought
wheat futures IN anticipation of ship
ments of cash wheat and thus have
taken up about 15,000,00 bushels. ac-
cording to brokers. They also have
taken some 100000 bushels of May
and July corn and as much oats.
