CHICAGO. June 15.-Forecasts OF
cooler weather in the southwest turn
ed wheat prices downward today
after a brief display of strength at
the opening. Initial gains were due to
tions for winter wheat, but prospects
for cooler temperature acted quickly
as more than An Offset.
Good rains in. the spring crop belt
counted also as a bearish factor The
opening. which ranged from u to y
higher with July l.12L2 to LEA and
September. l.13A to 1.13ts, was fol-
lowed by slight further gains and
then by a setback all around to
well below yesterdays finish.
Corn followed the changes in wheat
and after opening y off to " ad-
vance. July 62h to SIS, underwent
general sag.

to 35ss, and later scored slight addi-
tional gains before beginning TO re-

with the hog market.

Subsequently, lack of export demand
and of sustained buying of futures
led to a further setback in wheat
values The close was unsettled. IA
to 2A net lower. with July, 1.0s4 to
1.oeZ, and September. LII to 1.11s.
The corn market was later depressed
to an additional extent by a break
this season. The close was nervous,
