GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Dec 29-P)-Wheat prices
avera sc lower today, influenced
largely by persistent selling on the
part of traders who sought to avoid
financing wheat deliverable on Decem-
ber contracts. Closing quotations on
wheat were irregular at 5s cent net
decline to Il cent advance, with corn
3s cent off to IL cent gain, oats u
to 5s OK cent up, and provisions vary
ing from 10 cent drop to rise of
equal extent.
Wheat deliveries here today on De-
cember contracts totaled 100000 bush
els, although the contracts time limit
has still two days to run. Talk of
prospective increasing shipments of
wheat from Argentina and Australia,
during the next month s p ia lily,
counted also as bearish influence,
and so likewise did the fact that nearly
half of the North American wheat sur
plus is still on hand undisposed Of.
Under such circumstances May delivery
of wheat here fell today to within one
cent of the seasons bottom level, with
July meanwhile establishing new low
price record for the crop.
Commission house absorption of de-
ferred deliveries of wheat became a
feature, nevertheless, in the last part
of the day and helped to make the
market look more two-sided. In this
connection a. good deal of notice was
taken of the announcement that the
German wheat crop is officially esti-
mated at 22,OO0,O 900 bushels less than
last year, with the German rye crop
also heavily short. --latest figures on
today's export business in North Amer
lean wheat were $4,000 bushels. Corn
showed stubborn resistance to selling
pressure. Cash demand here was bet
ter, sales being the largest in some

STOCK MARKET
MUCH STRONGER
ON WEDNE SDAY
(By The Associated Press)
.ock market averages:
Total stock sales, 1,577,SOO shares

| NEW YORK. Dec 29.-P-The stocl
market displayed complete reversa
of form today, rallying sharply during
the afternoon after an early period ot
weakness. In the absence of any new
developments to explain the sudden up
swing in prices, Wall street was in
clined to regard the recent reaction as
a technical one designed to correct an
obviously over-bought position. Early
losses in many issues ran from one tC
five points, but most of these were
substantially reduced or wiped out,
and in many cases converted into net
gains ranging from fractions to two
points.
Spectators for the decline found
plenty of ammunition for their at
tacks in the days news, particularly
the decline in freight car loadings for
the week ended December 1S, compar-
ed with the corresponding week last
year, the falling off in steel production
reported by the weekly trade reviews
and the publication of bearish mar
ket forecast by large investment
stock exchange. Money rates held
relatively firm, but no general reduc-
tion is expected until after the turn
of the year. While the volume of
brokers' loans is causing uneasiness
in some quarters, hope is still held out
in others that the New York federal
reserve bank and others will reduce
their rediscount rates in January.
The recovery in prices was led by
standard industrials, such; as U. S.
Steel, General Motors, American Sme1t-
ing and Baldwin, all of which closed
one to two points net higher. The
strong buying support forthcoming for
these issues when bear traders renewed
their attacks on the general list led to
extensive short covering in other quar-
ters, some of it probably inspired by
the belief that the reinvestment de-
mand will act as bullish influence.
Heavy accumulation of Hudson Motors,
which closed nearly three points higher
at SAN, revived talk of possible mer-I
gers, although details were lacking.
Wall street was inclined to regard the
oullish demonstrat tions in most of the
other motors as the traditional win

ng of the New York automobile show.
