CHICAGO September 17.-Sharp up
turns in the value of corn resulted
largely today from announcement of
a projected movement on the part of
Warmers organizations to have grain
and livestock held back for higher
prices. The fact also that the hog
market this morning showed strength
tended noticeably to stimulate corn
buying.
On the other hand. foreign exchange
weakness and other bearish factors
that have been more or less respons-
ible for the recent decline Of grain
values received but little attention.
Opening prices. which ranged from
= cents to 81 cents higher. with
September LAT to 1.49 and December
1.24 to LBS. were followed by numer-
ous fluctuations, but no important
setback from initial gains.

opening q cents to y cents higher.

market scored a moderate further ad-
vance.
