CHICAGO, Oct. -wheat-Early
selling Induced by an increase in coun-
try selling from the south west was
readily absorbed and for the remand
er of the session is was a strong mar
ket. News developments were gener
ally of a bullish tenor especially as to
the prospective movement of wheat
from the country. The announcement
came from Wichita Kansas, that the
United States wheat growers associa-
ton has set October 25th as the date
for farmers in this country and Canada
to discontinue selling wheat until the
price has reached So for choice wheat
at terminals. The possibility of such
plan proving successful certainly
looks doubtful at this time but never
theless the temporary result is very
likely to be the cessation of bear pres
sure and a somewhat higher range OF
prices.

A new relation between the foreign
exchange situation and the credit

Of international accounts, exporters
from this country for the most part
now insist on payment in dollars for
their goods. With the European ex-
changes f1uctuating downward. they
demand dollars to protect themselves
against loss through changes in the
international exchange market.
Having dollar bills of varying ma
turtles on their hands, the American
banks must hold many of them in
their portfolios until the date of ma
turity. When Americans used sterling
bills mainly the banks would mail
them to London. and after discount
ing them there would sell a tele-
graphic transfer against them. Thus,
in those days their money was tied up
scarcely more than a week. New, it

of bills arising from their sale.
Bankers also reported that an in

against grain shipments had flowed
into the market.
Some bankers expressed the fear
that the collapse in the exchange
rates might result in the cancella-
ton of foreign orders for future de-
