Corn Movement Does

Grain and provision letter by wire
from Chicago office of Thomson & Nc
Kinnon, brokers, says:
Corn-The action of corn prices today
was not the result of anything new but
simply an enforced recognition of the
Inadequate movement from the country
and the consequent strength in the cash
market The strength in cash comes
solely from light receipts, not from a new
demand. So far MS deferred deliveries
are concerned we believe today has seen
q material easing Of the tension in that
shorts have covered freely and holders
have realized in q considerable way. The
reserves on the farm, however. together
with n slowing down of feeding demand
by the growth of pasturage suggest that
the deferred deliveries have fully dis
counted theone item of slow distribution.
"Oats-More interest has been dis
played in oats in sympathy with corn
and under the stimulus Of high prices
for cash oats in western markets as well
as in the east. Seeding Is progressing
rapidly and 1t is believed the area will
be materially increased. SO long as
country receipts RENT n at to 10 cents
over the May, so lops as the country Is
q reluctant seller me market will show
frmness, but We believe the level of
prices represents all that is justified by
fhe present cash situation.
'Provisions-NO change in the labor
Mutation at the yards. To some extent
4&A over and beyond this is the weight
%hedging sales against accumplations.
underlying situation is much in
