CHICAGO Grain

CHICAGO, June 15-Forecasts of
cooler weather in the southwest
turned wheat prices downward to
day after a brief display OF strength
at the opening. Initial gains were
due to continued unfavorable crop
conditions for winter wheat due, to
uncertain weather.
Rains in the spring crop belt
counted also as a bearish factor.
The opening which ranged from &c
to &c higher with July S1.12h to
s1.12M and September s1.13 to
S1.13% was followed by slight fur-
ther gains and then by set back
all around to well below yester-
days finish.
Corn followed the cha4gessfn
wheat and after opening sc off to
&C advance, July .6251s to q, under
went a general sag.
