Aggressive Commission
House Buying and Better
Trade Start Rise.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, March 25.-Aggressive
buying on the part of leading COM
mission houses, together with a ma
terial enlargement of general trade,
led to an advance in wheat prices
today after a decline at the start
The initial weakness was in sym
pathy with lower quotations on wheat
at Liverpool and on account of
sharp downturn in corn values here.
However, lack of rain over the do
mestic Winter wheat region south
west, as well as unfavorable crop
reports from there, were more than,
a counterbalance. The opening, which
varied from unchanged figures to a
setback of 2 cents, May I.63z to
1.64h and July 1.43h to 1.44A, was
followed by a rise which carried May
to 1.66 and July to 1.47 4.
Further selling to stop losses on
the part of holders forced down the
price of corn. September delivery
