May IL
Wheat--The settlement of the repara-
tons controversy has created the idea OF
an increased demand from Germany for
wheat. Crop reports have been OF
character to suggest a widespread, al
though not serious, retrogression cond1-
ton. These two influences, strength has
prevailed throughout the day Some ex-
port sales were claimed to have been
made to Germany, but amounts not speci-
fed. There has also been more interest
in the milling trade. Cash wheat has
ruled slightly easier Tor SOFT winter out
firm and good demand for hard winter.
We have frequently mentioned the ex-
tremely small accumulattons in milling
centers. Under this condition the entire
market should be quite responsive TO u
general improvement in the demand from
mtllers This demand must improve at
some time, as 1t is not possible for the
reserves to supply the demand indefinite
ly The country is not disposed to sell
freely, and as liberal export sales, pre-.
viously made, are yet to be filed, 1t is
reasonable to assume that there will be
weakness In the cash market. A con
tinuation of the present tenor OF crop
reports will result in higher prices
Corn and Oats-A moderate export
business has been done in corn and the
sales reported for domestic shipment
show a better demand. 1t is claimed that
the accumulations Of corn in public ele
vators in Chicago are on contract for
shipment. This may show further re-
Spouse to strength in wheat, but the re-
serves in the country and the probability
of an increased movement will prevent
any important advance. Oats are more
likely to be governed by the news from
the growing crop, which is, by no means,
as glowing as earlier.
Provisions-There has been new buy
ing in the provision market, based upon
anticipation Of a strong demand from
Germany. 1t is believed that some OF
this buying has been for foreign ac-
count. In case a broad demand develops,
prices will respond.

After a rather quiet and uneventful
opening, the market was taken by sur
prise by the distribution Of large selling
orders, which had all the @ear-marks Of
professionalism, so that the favorable
news from Europe was entirely neutral
ized. For a while the market seemed to
be in a very helpless condition Some
rather severe losses were recorded
And. as is usually the case when stocks
rnediately follows. Today Republic Iron
and Steel. American Sumatra, Bosch Mag
psto and Chandler Motor were in the list
OF stocks that were to pass the dividends.
That the steel stocks should be weak
was not particularly surprising, con-
sidering the further important reduction
IN United States Steers booked tonnage.
II is well known, and at no time IN the
recent past has there been any Influential
buying of these stocks.
Some groups acted very wei, par
ticularly the oil shares, Mexican Petro-
leum, however, being an exception.
During thsaafternoon the tobacco stocks
moved forward in response to an i'm
proved demand.
Hide and Leather preferred was con-
spculously strong.
The coppers and rails acted fairly well
and we anticipate an Increasing demand
for these shares.
There is nothing to Justify a bearish
position on the market at this time. as
conditions here are improving, and In
Europe the outlook is now more encour-
aging than for some time.
