GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Jan. 20 (49-Wheat and
rye took a decided upward swing to-
day, largely as the result Of low tenn
peratures endangering new domestic
winter wheat Comprehensive adviceS
showed that snow protection had dis
appeared throughout the entire winter
wheat territory. Increasing movement
of the corn crop put selling pressure
on the corn market. Wheat closed
strong, III @115c net higher, with rye
1c to 17sc up, corn varying from 9sc
decline to * s@14c advance, oats 80 r.
to &c up and provisions %t rise OF
.5@12c.
Indications of foreign buying of fu-
ture deliveries went hand in hand to-
day with advancing prices for the
bread grains, wheat and rye. Sim
ultaneously, flour makers continued to
absorb the offerings of good milling
grades of wheat here and talk was cur
rent that owners .fof considerable
amount gof March wheat in Chicago
Would take deliveries on contracts and
would ship the wheat out, presumably
to the seaboard. With almost no wheat
coming in here predictions were made
that CllCaSO SGOCKS O1l MoiCAI
would be small About 100000
bushels reduction of the official esti-
mate of the Argentine yield as COM
pared with the latest previous forecast
tended further to strengthen values.
Figures were also at hand purporting
to show that the worlds available sup
ply increased 52,55O,O0O bushels in De-
cember against 78,837,0O bushels in
crease for December, 1926 Meanwhile
the outlook was for additional drop in
temperatures tonight over domestic
winter wheat sections and there was
no apparent likelihood of any immedi-
ate moisture relief where needed.
Corn prices weakened by heavier
country offerings and by receivers an
nouncing rural acceptances of 100000
bushels to arrive in Chicago, the larg-
est total for any day this season. Be-
sides a cold wave over the corn belt is
expected to facilitate the general mar
keting of corn. oats were purchased
both for cash interests and commits
sion houses.

the Arkansan vigorously assailed him
on the senate floor.
However, Heflin reiterated that he
would continue on the course he has
mapped in opposition to Smith and TO
the workings of what he calls the
Roman Catholic political machine In
addition he gave notice that he would
on Monday pay his respects in the
senate to Mayor Gunter of Montgom-
cry, Ala, for. the attack the mayor
made upon him in telegram to Rob-
inson inviting the democratic leader TO
visit the Alabama capital as guest OF
the city and make speech there.
Heflin had intended to address the
senate on that subject today but he
postponed it until he could get addi-
tional information upon which to base
his remarks and also becatSe of de-
sire of senate leaders to dispose of the
resolution authorizing the president 70

Both Robinson and Heflin are being
deluged with letters and kilograms
congratulating each upon his position
in the senate battle. The minority
leader has received invitations from
scores of places besides Montgomery TO
deliver addressed, but he has not yet
decided whether he will accept any OF
them. s.ls

calm RULES IN
SENATE AFTER
DEMOCRATIC ROW

WASHINGTON Jan. 20 up = Calm
ruled today on the democratic side of
the senate after the storm over Cath
olicism and Governor Alfred E. Smith
and the challenging of the leadership
of Robinson of Arkansas by Heflin of
Alabama. Given an overwhelming vote
of confidence by his party colleagues,
Senator Robinson apparently regarded
the incident as closed, especially since
Heflin had publicly withdrawn his
challenge of the leaders right to sit
on the special committee investigat-
ing Mexican documents published in
Hearst newspapers.
The Alabama senator seemed disin-
clined to continue the feud with his
party leader, although he still insisted
that the party conference i'll voting
confidence in Robinson had in no wise
administered any rebuke to him for at
tacking the Roman Catholic church
and the New York governor or for
challenging Robinson's leadership when

WHEAT VALUES SAG
IN EARLY TRADING.
Favorable Weather Reports Cause
Drop in Prices at Chicago
Market.
Nv the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, December 4.-Influenced
by reports that harvest is extending
under favorable conditions both in Ar
gentina and Australia, wheat values
here underwent an early setback today.
Liverpool advised that Argentina is Of
fering wheat freely to Europe at lower
prices. Opening lsaH of to 1saA up,
Chicago wheat later suffered declines
all around. Corn was also easier,
starting at % lower to ls advance and
then showing a general sag. Oats were
flrn. Provisions had downward slant.
Selling pressure from the Northwest
added today to the bearish effect of
news indicating that Argentine wheat is
competing sharply with North Ameri-
can wheat seeking transatlantic out
let. There were also indications that
export demand today for wheat from
Canada and United States continued
slack, although assertions were made
that fair amount of business with
Europe is being worked under cover all
the time. Meanwhile, word of improved
weather for the Argentine harvest was
an outstanding feature.
Corn tended downward in price much
OF the time today, as result of less
unfavorable weather than expected, as
snowfalls were light. Besides, foreigners
were reported offering to sell corn back
which had been purchased for January
shipment. On the other hand some
authorities said fresh export buying
had been done late yesterday on a
profitable basis.

ACQUIRES Textile Mill.

THOMASTON, Ga, December 4 up.
The B. F. Goodrich Rubber Co. has
acquired one of the $4,000 spindle mills
of the Hightower interests here and
will operate it after January /, next,
w. H. Hightower, president, announced.
He made this statement in confirm
ing report from Akron, ohio, that the
Goodrich Co. had exercised its option
on the Martha" mill.
Mr.. Hightower explained that when
the mill was erected some years ago
the Goodrich Co. took an option on it..
At the time the entire output of the
mill was consumed by the Goodrich Co.
The president of the Hightower in
terests said he understood the capacity
of the mill would be trebled, which
will give it about 100000 spindles. 1t
will turn out Goodrich fabric eXclu-
sively.
The Hightower Co. owns four other
mills which manufacture sheetings and
tire fabric. These will continue to be
operated by the company and will not
be affected by the purchase OF the
Martha" mill, Mr.. Hightower said.
