Buying of future deliveries of wheat
was the immediate effect of gossip cir

bill had received qualified approval at
the White House. Uncertainty as to
what might follow the proposed far

had an evident disturbing influence on

impression that price setback would
be natural after last weeks rise. The

latter part of today's stock market
after an early period of irregularity.
Late buying apparently was inspired
Nv the declaration of the regular
dividend on Northern Pacific and the
optimistic tone Of tho weekly steel

The recovery was most marked in
me oil shares, which are beginning
TO respond to the gradual improve
mcnt in the statistical position OF the
industry. Pacific Oil and Pan Amer

lining, which had been heavy in the
early trading, moved up from 1854
TO l29. where It was up 40 points on
The day. Tidewater closed S% high
err at 14l7s.
Steel shares were bought on re-
ports that present conditions point to
sustained steel activity for the next
few months and preliminary unofli-
cial estimates OF another increase OF
between $4,000 and $4,000 tons in
the untitled orders OF the United
States Steel Corporation. Net gains
IN this group, however, were limited
