GRAIN-Advance in grain prices early
in week was short-lived, as buying sup
port was insufficient to offset hedging pres
sure and liquidation, and prices worked
lower. Government crop report, forecast
ing large crops of coarse grains, was
bearish factor. Quiet export business
was another depressing factor. Cash
grain prices were firmer than futures.
