Chicago, June 15.-Corn-Oversold
conditions. a better cash demand for the
good grades and the strength in oats
were the features in a sharply higher
corn market Considerable buying de-
eeloped thruout the session on the be-
lief that the receipts VIII be light dur
ing the next six weeks and that corn
for human consumption will be readily
absorbed by industries and milling in
terests. Crop reports however, con-
tinue favorable and the weekly forecast
indicates period Of good growing
weather.
Oats-Further reports Of dry weather
in parts of Montana and Canada,
coupled with the working Of some ex-
port business from outside markets
made for a good advance in oats. There
was talg OF increased offerings from
the country, but the maintenance OF
high premiums for the cash grain and
the knowledge that the new wheat
would be given preference In the move
ment served to check short selling.
Provisions-Product was higher with
the grain and an advance in the price
Of live hogs.
Stocks-Further favorable news from
Europe intensified bullish sentiment and
stocks, under the leadership Of the steel
group, generally scored substantial ad-
vances. The principal influence in the
steels was the generally accepted be-
lief that a serious shortage in produc-
ton impends, as the allies needs are
tremendous and domestic requirements
alone are sufficient to take care of the
output.
