The reason dates back to a telegram Levine
sent to Commander Richard E. Byrd virtually
challenging him to race back from Paris to New

the Bellanca plane back to the United States and
Levine has announced he will make the trip with

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Jan. "a. -(P) - Assertions
that the Canadian government wheat
crop report due tomorrow afternoon
will show reduced figures on yield
tended to lift wheat prices today. Fall
ing off in the United States visible
supply total was also a strengthening
factor. Wheat closed firm, 4 10 "
cent net higher; corn as to y cent
down; oats unchanged to Il cent off,
and provisions unchanged to 15@1I
cents up.
In the late dealings, wheat reacted
somewhat from the days top level,
but the setbacks appeared to be re-
suit not of wheat market conditions
p1 oper, but of sympathy with sharp
decline in corn. Earlier, wheat had
climbed to about one cent above Sat
urdays finish, helped by an unexpected
jump in Liverpool quotations and by
word of decreasing stocks in Great
Britain. Houses with southwestern
connections, though, were good sellers
here when the market bulged.
On the other hand, premiums for
export wheat at the Gulf of Mexico
were firmer and export business in
domestic red winter wheat today ap-
peared to be of fair volume. Besides,
evidence was at hand tending to con-
firm reports that European crops are
smaller than estimated earlier in the
season Curtailment of production in
Spain was given particular notice, lat
est figures on yield in that country
being 125,990,O0O bushels, against a
June official forecast of 151,996,OOO
bushels Corn prices gave away after
announcement that the corn visible
supply had increased 100000 bushels
for the week and is SS,161,O00 bushels
compared with 26O,431, 900 bushels last
year. Oats followed corn,
Provisions were responsive to a rise
in the value of hogs.

1t doesn't cost the motorist nearly so
much, either in money or. trouble, to
get the license now as it is likely to
COST him later on, the deputy remarks.
