CHICAGO. March 22.-Absence of
any pressure to sell brought about
an appearance of strength in the
wheat market today. Buying, how
"ver was of only a scattered sort
and was confined mainly to shorts.
Removal of talk about enactment of
n emergency tariff bill tended to
give some advantage to bulls. Open
ing. prices, which varied from un-
changed figures to y lower, with
March l.52 and May 1.H to 1.42. were
followed by moderate gains all
around and then by a fair reaction.
Corn hardened with wheat. After
opening a shade to v lower. includ-
ing May at 65h to S5%, the market
scored slight general gains. but then
sagged.
together with misgivings
about economic conditions and lack of
export demand led to efforts to
liquidate and prices broke sharply
May fell to the lowest Level since
1915. The close was unsettled at y
net decline to ~ gain. with March
1.51Z to 152 and May 1.42%. to 1.43.
Later the corn market sympathized
with wheat weakness. Both corn and
oats for May delivery touched the
lowest level since 1913. Corn closed
nervous at Y to y net decline. with
