sentiment became more hopeful. The

GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago, Sept 1o.--Corr prices went
soaring today as a result of predictions
of wide spread frost tonight. An ascent
Of as much as 81 cents bushel took
place in some cases as soon as tne
market opened. BIllish sentiment was
rampant owing to the fact that kill
ing frost meant severe damage to the
crop as a whole, the plant being still
immature throughout ths greater por-
ton of the chief producing belt.
Opening quotations which ranged
from IL to AZ cents higher. with De-
cember at s1.17A to $11SA and May
at $1.141s to Sligo. were followed by
reactions but only to a moderate eX-
tent.
Abnormal prices in corn and asser-
lions that the maximum price on corn
futures set sometime ago at $l.28 would
be removed after October L. tended
bulls, Attention to was directed to a
statement by Food Administrator
Hoover advocating freer use of corn
meal. The close was strong 81 to 3
cents net higher at $1.19N to $I1s3
December and $1.16k to $116A May.
Oats made only slight response to
the advance in corn. Selling by longs
proved too voluminous to permit
greater upturn. Besides, receipts here
showed a material increase.
More stringent enforcement of gov
eminent supervision of wheat sales be-
gan today. Heretofore millers were
permitted to buy direct at the fixed
government prices, but from now on
all dealings are with the agents Of the
food administration.
Arrivals were again light. 1t was said
that farmers as rule were busy IN
the fields, and know that the price was
obtainable at any time, were In no
hurry to ship.
Provisions reflected the upward
course ofgcorn and hogs.
