CORN PRICES
MOVE UPWARD
Market Affected by Pro-
nounced Bullish Stand Taken
by Leading Spectator

Chicago, Dec. 14.-tR-Despite
lively profit taking sales, corn
showed a decided upward tendency
today. Under leadership Of a noted
Spectator, the corn market de-
veloped power to rally from yester.
days sharp break in prices and
there was good class Of general
commission house buying. Export
corn bids at the gulf of Mexico adj
vanced and country offerings to ar.
rive here were small, whereas wheat
values were inclined to lag.
Corn closed firm, 1-2 to l Ia
cents net higher; wheat at 3-8 cents
off to Is cents up; oats showing
3-4 to l cent gain and provisions
varying from a Is cent setback to
a rise of 30 cents.
Opening at 1-8 to So cent adj
vance. corn reacted somewhat but
soon rose higher than before. Wheat
averaged lower early, starting. at
1-8 cent off to 1-2 cent up, and lat
cr showing losses all around. Oats
were easy. Provisions tended the
advance.
At times today, the number OF
traders in the corn pit far outnum'
bered those giving attention to
wheat. The chief reason was a
statement from one Of the most
widely known figures in the grain
trade asserting that the decline in
the corn market should be at an
end. He based his stand, he said,
on belief that European demand for
corn would make itself felt shortly,
and that buying for export would
be an important factor in the not
distant future.
According to this authority, the
Argentine crop Of Corn has been
about exhausted, and the new Ar
gentine corn crop will not start
coming until May or June. Mean
while, European root crps are small
this year, and transatlantic coun-
tries will have to turn for corn ia
the United States instead. He also
said that but little corn is to be
had in many Of the cron belt states,
and that some Of the buying in Chi
cago is coming from corn centers.

HOLIDAY rs DECLARED
IN MEXICO CITY TODAY

lN MEA1NV I'll 4OOA1
Mexico City, Dec. 1l.-Wl-
Mexicans turned their eyes to the
north today, scanning the skies for
the approach Of an American am.
bassador Of good will, Colonel
Charles A. Lindbergh, flying from
Washington in the Spirit Of st.
Louis.
Before midnight throngs Of peo-
pie started for Valbuena flying
field, where Lindbergh's nonstop
flight is expected to terminate sue
cessfully today. Crowds were on
the two and one-half mile road
leading from the city to the field.
Troops Of cavalry patrolled the
highway to prevent congestion.
Field Heavily Guarded
Guards were thrown about the
flying field to prevent the crowd
from overrunning it. It was esti-
...-::ated that before LipdberHh's Or.
rival, $4,000 soldiers, both infantry
men and cavalrymen, would be on
the field to prevent . repetition Of
the boisterous - receptions which
greeted the Transatlantic flyer at
Paris and London.
A group Of army aviators, headed
by Major Emilio Carranza, groomed
their planes in preparation for per.
forming stunts over the field when
the American arrives. Major Car.
rama, who recently made the first
nonstop flight between Mexico City
and Juarez at the border, said the
Lindbergh flight would be . great
stimulus to aviation in Mexico.
All government business, except
that Of receiving Lindbergh, and Ill
business in Mexico City, except
that Of welcoming Lindbergh, was
suspended today by presidential or.
der. A public holiday was pro.
claimed, which has never been done
before for any foreigner.
Greatest Welcome on Record
Certainly no foreigner, and prob
ably not even the greatest Mexican
hero entering the capital, has ever
received such q welcome from the
people as that prepared for Lind
bergh.
NE interest was evident from
peon to president. President Gales
remained up until after midnight
receiving news Of Lindbergh's pro.
gress from the Associated Press
He expressed great satisfaction q
the way his famous guest seemed 4
be covering the country.
