The senate bill, sponsored by

probable European import wheat re-
QuirementS this year will be SO large as
to result in only the same world carry
over as last year despite total world
crop 125000000 bushels larger than
last year, the fact remained that ex-
port demand today for wheat from
North America was slow. At times
today especially in earlier dealings
the market developed a good deal OF
firnness on account of high winds re-
ported in Kansas and because of per-
sistent dearth of moisture in large
areas southwest, circumstances adj
verse for domestic winter wheat.
On the other hand price bulges to-
day in the market led to increased
selling pressure from the northwest
and so likewise did announcemen
near the end of the day that the world
available supply of wheat showed g.
444,O0O bushels enlargement, making
the total now 100000 bushels
against 245,00O,O00 bushels Z year ago
Besides December exports of domestic
wheat and flour were rather disap-
pointing with the seasons total but 10,-
100000 bushels greater than the year

decreased country offerings did a gooc
deal to make prices today average

NEW YORK, Jan. "a lF9-The rally
in stock prices, having been under way
for five consecutive days, showed signs
of slowing today despite violent adj
vances of to 80 points in a few
specialties. Pools, encouraged by the
plentiful supply of call funds available
at 315 per cent, marked up more than
a score of issues to their highest since
1925 or longer. The sharpest gains took
place in the express shares and other
specialties in which there is a small
floating supply.
The increase from 81 to per cent
in the rediscouht rate of the Chicago
federal reserve bank, which was an
nounced after the close. Of the market,
took Wall street by surprise, although

the possibility of higher rediscount
rates has been one Of the reasons ad-
vanced by some conservative brokerage
houses for recommending a tightening
of long commitments. While specula-
tive opinion is divided as to the effect
Of this action on securities, it is gen
orally conceded that it will have g
scbering effect on speculative opera
tions. It was recalled that some Of
the Chicago bank officials were op-
posed to lowering of the rate last fall
which is said to have been forced upon
them by the pressure of federal re-
serve authorities in Washington.
One likely effect of the higher Chi
cago rate is a reduction in the amount
CT funds sent into New York to be
leaned on call. The heavy influx o1
out-of- town funds is reported to have
been one of the contributory causes
to the recent ease of the New York
call market. Other western banks are
likely to follow the lead of Chicago.
Eastern banks are expected to main
tain the 31a per cent rate Tor the pres
ent barring a development of specula-
tive excesses in the stock market Di-
rectors of the New York bank meet
