CHICAGO, August ga erowing
conviction on the board Of trade that
the agitation against the high cost
of living is achieving results was re-
flected today in lower prices for
grains and provisions.
Oats moved downward with corn,
though the decline was within mar
rover limits. Liquidating sales and
pressure from local traders were evil
dent, though there was moderate buy
ing of September on the break and
elevator interest increasing its hold
ings. Opening oats prices were 4 to
X lower, with September 1T 70h to
TEX and December at TAN to 73N.
In the early hours the market sAgged
somewhat below the opening figures.
