WEEKLY GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
LETTER.

Chicago May 1s,-Big setbacks in
the price OF corn have resulted this
week largely from food administration
announcements and from peace dis
cuRBion in the British house of COM
mons. Compared with q week ago,
corn values this morning were az net
lower to Nc advance. IN oats the net
changes varied from 20 loss. to nc
gain. Provisions showed declines of
! B7o to S8.40.
Action by the 9ood administration
that all flour substitutes must sell loo
below wheat cost gave the initial
downward impulse to corn. A good
sized decrease in the visible supply
total rallied prices, but q fresh de-
cline quickly followed official state
ments that there was plenty Of seed
on hand to supply all requirements, 4
word that Great Britain was ready to
consider any straightforward propos-
al Of peace.
Congestion in May delivery brought
about an Irregular market IN oats.
Timely rains in Nebraska and Kansas
! gave some advantage, though. to the
bears,
: Fresh government restrictions on
packers forced down provisions.
