By United Press

commissar, Maxim Litvinof, today
dispatched an unsympathetic reply
to the League of Nations, accepting
the invitation for the Soviet Union
to participate in the third session

intended to provoke our refusal"
Litvinoff wrote, in reference to the

and the restrictions placed on their
participation.

WHEAT CLOSES
Up IN NARROW
TRADING RANCE
Corn Touches New Bottom
Levels for Past Ten
Years.
BY HAROLD E. RAINYILLE,
United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, April 27.-Wheat was
unsettled on the Board of Trade
today and while closing sharply
higher. held to narrow limits. The
bottomless aspect in the coarse
grains and the late weakness in
stocks were depressing but fair sup
port was in evidence and the mar
ket exhibited strong tendencies to
rally at times.
The unceasing liquidation in May
corn and oats again sent all deliv-
cries Of those grains into new
ground, corn touching levels not
equaled since 1921, and oats de-
scending to 1901 marks. Stop loss
orders were uncovered in profusion.
Wheat Supports Market
Buying against bids gave the
market substantial rally from the
bottom and late strength in wheat
had a support effect. The break
brought in an aggressive shipping
demand for oats, 100000 bushels
coins to cash buyers.
At the close wheat was s. cent
to rs cents higher. with May IN
changed; corn was Is cent to =
cent lower and oats were Is cent
to = cent higher. Provisions were
strong and higher.
Liverpool and Buenos Aires re-
coded considerably during the day,
Liverpool closing l to rs cents low
er while Buenos Aires was down
15s cents early. a lower exchange
rate was the chief factor in the de-
cline in the Argentine market. There
was apparently some support on the
dips early. but it was not sufficient
to check the declines. Cash prices
were unchanged. Receipts were d
cars.
Corn Is Unsettled 4
Corn was unsettled at the start as
a result of the liquidation in May
and the general unsettled situation
in financial markets. the nearby
months went to new lows for the
season, breaking more than l cent
by midsesSion, with May the lowest
since 1921. There were a few rallies
on short covering, but the tone was
heavy and the selling continued.
Cash prices were y to ? cents lower.
Receipts were 189 cars.
Oats followed corn into new low
territory for the season during the
morning as liquidation came into
the market. Prices were off 4 to
% cenS early There was no special
news and trading was not as active
as in the other pits. Cash prices
were l to 11s cents lower Receipts
were forty-siX cars.
