 BOARD IN GRAIN
Says Farm Group Brought About Higber Wheat Prices

Chicago. Nov. 21 George 5.
 Stabilization Corporation, today c, edited the farm board with bring ing about bettered domestic wheat prices.
 If the farm board never did an-
 other thing, it will have justified it. self in the past weeks work said
 Milnor, whose corporation is board agency. He referred to buying by federal stabilization agencies during the past week of both cash and futures of wheat to forestall de- clines.
 His statement. issued following yesterdays market session in which government support lent stability to grain value, said underlying market factors and the fact that the cor
 poration had taken steps to prevent further declines afforded assurances to consumers of wheat products that they might with reasonabye safety make purchases for their sea- sonable requirements, thus protect ing themselves against such ad-
 vances in the market as might come about"
 Among factors favorable to an up-
 ward trend Milnor listed: Lack of
 congestion of wheat at terminals in spite of the large visible supply, substitution of wheat for corn in livestock feeding, greater consump- tion of bread from reduced flour costs, and reduced wheat acreage.
 Wheat advanced yesterday 1-8 to 3 Is cents. Corn gained 215 10 IS cents.

SASReNSsf
NEW YORK, November l5.-Trans-
atlantic steamship lines with Offices in
New York report today q slight but
definite upturn in general cargo and
passenger business during the last few
weeks. On the whole, shipping volume
is up to that Of last year. barring grain,
and in some instances above last years
figures TO date.
We have noticed Q definite improve
ment during the last month";" said John
Gammige, assistant manager of the
Cunard Lines here. There are heavy
shipments of fruit, particularly apples,
and diversified cargoes have been mount
ing up" Other executives of the
Cunard Co. reported passenger business
gaining, with unusual heavy bookings
for the West Indies and South African
cruises.
The United States Lines reported that
on its last two round trips to Europe,
the Leviathan had carried more pas
sengers than on any previous trips.
Passenger business is slightly above the
record for the same period last year,
although, after the slump, west-bound
ships were heavily loaded, bringing
voyagers back from Europe.
This line also reported q lessened vol
ume Of grain, but q recent increase in
general cargo. In this and other in
stances the lowering Of grain shipments
We. attributed to Russian grain moving
into the European markets. Several
companies now have ships in the st
Lawrence River scouting for grain.
The North German Lloyd, having had
the spectacular Europa and Bremen in
service only year, had no background
OF comparison for passenger service, but
reported these ships doing q heavy bust
ness. The freight department Of the
company reported large shipments OF
Christmas goods, with freight boats un-
usually busy, but qualified this with the
statement that cargo Is concentrated in
fewer ships.
Wall Street, recalling the statement OF
James A. Terrell, president of the United
States Steel Corporation, that ocean
carriage Of freight and passengers is the
most reliable index of prosperity, Is
watching these developments keenly.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November I5.--Irregu-
larity marked the opening Of the Curb
Exchange today, but this was swept
aside as the list moved upward on
m increasing volume of dealings.
The market leader, Electric Bond g.
Share, advanced about point and
Cities Service was up about half that
amount. American Superpower and
sone Of the other pivotal utilities
moved up sharply on spirited short
coverings.
Advance BrOadens.
Public utilities, coppers and petroleum
shares led the upswing in the first hour,
and later were joined by other sections
of the list. Relatively few large blocks
appeared, but the advance was Sufh-
Gent to cause the bears to hurry to
cover. This movement was typif1ed
by O. string of American Superpower,
which ran up from l2h to IA.
Profit taking in Newmont Mining,
after its 61a-point rise Friday, caused
It to open lower today, but it soon
recovered It's early loss. Noranda,
Hudson Bay and Roam Antelope were
the early leaders in the copper group.
Later trading spread to virtually every
issue.
The advance in export copper quota
tons was responsible for the surge
in those shares. A series of unfavor-
able earning statements and an analysis
showing narrowed profit margins should
have adversely affected public utilities,
whose forward movement was based on
short covering, as these issues harbor
q larger amateur short interest.
Natural Gas shares, for the most part,
were firmer, but Dixie Gas Utilities
tumbled 7ss points on its initial quota
ton. Only a small amount OF this
stock remains outstanding, most OF 1t
being owned by United Gas, which,
on Friday reported improved profits for
this year.
Indian Territory Illuminating B up
AZ points and Gulf Oil up the same
amount, attracted attention in the mis-
cellaneous oils. Indiana Pipe Line, with
. bulge Of 2 points, led the pipe line
issues.
United Car Fastener rose u at the
opening, despite omission of the l5-cent
common quarterly dividend necessitated
by third-quarter profits Of ! cent
share against 50 cents share In the
same 1929 period.
Other Changes.
Glen Alden Coal broke 315 points on
the opening to new low level Of 3D.
Recent selling of the stock was under
stood to have been for the account of
an estate, but that liquidation is said
to have been completed.
Columbia Pictures and Technicolor
were features on the upside In the
amusement division. Later General
Theaters forged ahead.
American Cyanamid B again led the
upswing In the chemicals. This COM
pany has expanded steadily in 1880,
and is now reported to be conducting
merger conversations with A. Klipstein
e. Co., which, If acquired, would be
merged with Kalbheisch Corporation, a
Cyanamid subsidiary.
