or less with news of the overthrow
of the Wirth administration in Ger
many. but offerings of wheat were
scarce. and the market readily ad-
vanced when buyers became agrees
sive. The opening, which varied from
"a of to Is up. with December 111a
to 1177s and May 1151a to 115s..
was followed by moderate sag and
then a sharp general upturn to we'll
above yesterdays finish.
Corn and oats largely paralleled
the action of wheat. After opening
Is to y higher, December 7o1s to
7O14, the corn market underwent a
little setback, then rose above initial
figures. December touching a new
high price record for the season.
Oats started 1saA lower to 1s high
er, December 42A to 42H, and later
scored slight gains ell around.

tor extras. 27; refrigerator firsts, 25
