ARGENTINE BREAKS;

CAUSE WHEAT SLUMP
(By Asso GATED Press)

CHICAGO, Feb. 5--Severe down
turns in the wheat market this week
have been largely the result of big
breaks in Argentine quotations and of
uncertainty which has followed an
nouncement of the allies terms to Ger
many. Compared with a week ago.
wheat this morning was 8 TO 13Ac
lower corn was down rs to &c, oats
off sc to l sc and provisions showing
setback of As to 55c.
Ostensible heavy discounts on Ar
gentine wheat as compared with do
mestic proved such a vexation to trad
ers here that finally the drastic step
was taken of putting a ban on the
quoting of quotations from BueEos
Aires. 1t was charged by President
Griffin OF the Chicago board of trade
who sponsored this action that the
Buenos Aires prices did not intelli-
gently reflect supply and demand con-
dltiOns and were worse than useless.
New Low for Corn and Oats
Bulls were subsequently able to
bring about some rallies with the
help of higher duties in the emergency
tariff bill and on the ground that
bearish factors had been discounted
to the limit.
Corn and oats, sympathizing with
wheat, touched new low record prices
for the season, but were steadied later
by falling off in arrivals of corn.
