At first the corn market showed an up
ward slant, except for December, the longs
in which were said to have been officially
warned against any attempt at month
end manipulation. Offerings of other de-
liveries were temporarily scarce, but
selling pressure became general after pre-
dictions that temperatures would undergo
an almost immediate decided fall through
out the main portion of the corn belt. The
inference was popular that increased ar
rivals would soon follow the cold wave.
BeariSh views were also expressed as to
the attorney generals ruling about price

cumstances the only important rally which
took place came during the last Is minutes
when beated covering by shorts forced
December up SC from the low point of the
