The volume of business today was
smaller, which is not surprising consider.
ing the fact that it was the weekend
session and many traders are accustomed
to reducing rather than increasing com
mitments. Furthermore, there has been
a disposition on the part of the public
accept profits. At the same time, there
was some new buying, particularly in is
sues that have been made prominent
through the 1dvices published with re
lation to prospective mergers, this being
particularly true Of the Independent steels
and Trans Continental Oil, which has
again taken Its place in the limelight be-
cause of a mi-official confirmation Of
completed plans Of unity between it and
the Standard Oil Compan& Of California.
This suggests again the ACCESSIBILITY OF
keeping constantly In mind the necessity
for, and the likelihood Of a considerable
number of corporate mergers during the
next few years, which will not only
serve useful commercial purpose, but
we will have q financial condition In this
country which will make it easy to con-
summate such plans with q minimum
strain on credits.
1t requires no stretch Of Imagination
to see the great market activity that will
result from MI this, and with strenuous
efforts by the leading nations to hasten
n return TO normal In the countries Of
Europe and with gradual improvement In
business here, we have more than a rea-
senable liklhood Of decidedly higher
prices for our securities and we therefore
continue To recommend their purchase
on reactions.

Wheat-BroomhalI statement that Ar
gentine offerings OF wheat were limited
and that the first returns from the har-
vest were somewhat Disappointing
prompted he strength in Liverpool and
was the motive in our market. to the
exclusion Of liberal precipitation in the
Southwest and very slow cash markets
everywhere. 1t Is quite commonly be-
lieved that n0n-EurOpean countries have
taken so largely Of the Australian sur
plus as to ma Ike 1t necessary for reap
pearance Of export trade in North Amer
lean wheat. This idea is, Of course, en-
HANGED by thesclaims Of disappointment
in the Argentine crop. The seaboard
tells Of moderate sales or durum wheat
together with inquiries for rye. 1t is
claimed that a loan has been made to
Austria which will be used in the pur-
chase Of a million and a half bushels Of
wheat 1t is claimed also that. Russia
is negotiating for an exchange OF com
modities for foodstuffs Whether or no
there will be further export demand for
United States wheat at some time In the
future. 1t is fact just now that the
drought has been broken, export bust
ness unimportant and -four trade Is poor.
Between the possibility Of future de-
mand and the actualities Of a slow pres
ent demand, the mart Is not likely to
make important demonstrations either
way.
Corn and Oats-In addition to further
foreign buying of corn, there is q slight
betterment in the domestic distributing
demand. Export sales for all rail ship
ment are being consummated. The cash
market is firm with offerings from the
country showing no increase. Oats are
still devoid Of developments, although the
seaboard mentioned the possibility of ex
port trade. Both Of these markets are
In a healthy position and will respond
readily TO any increase in general in
tcrest. -..-....
Provisions Transactions IN provisions
were unimpOrtant. feature in the stu
alton is that the packing OF hogs since
the first Of November is smaller than
a year ago in the face of receipts some
what larger This is to be accounted
for by a rather brisk shipping demand
for hogs.
