weakness at Liverpool led to an early
downturn today in wheat here. The
Liverpool decline was ascribed to
favorable weather throughout Eur
ope and to British estimates that the
new European wheat crop would be
1872 million bushels larger than last
year with the European rye crop 2OO
million bushels larger. On the other
hand domestic crop damage reports
continued from both spring and win
ter wheat territory. Opening prices
in Chicago ranging from PA cents
decline to "A cents advance. May
$l.72 to $l.72A and July $l.6lh to
$lG2 were followed by rallies and
then by fresh setback with the
market touching as low as $l.7O for
May.
Subject to further .downturns,
price determined by reports of light
rains in the Northwest. Confirma-
ton Of crop damage made by test in
Kansas. Attempts made to bring

Increase from $12 to SIS in un-

is considerable confusion in deter
mining what Is fair value and a
