HOOVER REPORT BOOSTS

CHICAGO. December 3o.-After
touehipg 4 new high price record for
the season the wheat market this
week has taken q general downward
swing. mainly as the result Of heavy
selling on the part Of holders. Big
domestic receipts and lessening OF
optimism as to export business did
Q good deal to bring about unloading.

vantage. Highest prices Of the week

Hoover that an outflow OF gold from
the United States was helping to re-
store tho buying power of countries
to which tho gold Travelled. Misgiv-
ings about low condition of domestic
winter crop contributed also as a
buiiish factor at the time.
The last half Of the week, however.
witnessed persistent selling on a big
scale except In the December deliv-
cry, which seemed to be concentrated
in strong hands. Sentiment at this
stage was powerfully affected through
beerish opinions voiced by n leading
trader here. who contended that the
United States has at present 92.000.000
bushels more wheat than a year ago.
Under suoh circumstances declines
were difIicuit to check. and even news
Of warlike moves In the near east
was almost ignored as a market in
huence.
Active export demand aided in up
holding the value OF corn. but oats
gave way with wheat.
Closing Of spreads between lard
and cottonseed oil was more or less
responsible for higher prices in the
provision market.
