NEW YORK, March 29.-The stock

There were no significant changes in
either direction
Railway shares were higher with
special strength in Delaware e. Hud-

the industrials. while utilities we're
! heavy but not weak
In commodities, wheat was lower,
closing from 81 to ia cents down.
Selling was believed to be for account
OF the Government but there was no
confirmation of that. Corn was un-
changed to slightly higher. Cotton
most of the time was steady. Sugar
held its gain of Saturday. Silver in
mid afternoon was off 80 to so points.
The foreign exchanges moved in

francs AZ points, guilders were un-
changed and the French franc was
down fractionally.
The market opened slightly higher,
reacted fractionally and then hardened
again and at noon was not much
changed from Saturdays close. The
best showing was made by the railroad
shares. which were steady when the
industrials and the utilities were heavy.
In fact, the action of the rails encour-
aged traders to believe the market
might stage a good-sized rally.

CHICAGO, March 20.-Wheat prices
averaged lower early today. Moisture
in domestic Winter wheat territory
Southwest was q bearish factor, al
though regarded by many traders as
coming too late to be Of material bene-
fit to the wheat crop.
Opening at u decline to y advance,
wheat later held near the initial limits.
Corn started unchanged to " higher
and subsequently sagged somewhat.
Evidence Of selling by Government
financed agencies acted later as a
weight on wheat values. It was also
apparent that proposed agricultural leg
islative measures at Washington con-
tinued to exert disturbing influence.
Numerous operators took the ground
that all artificial price stimulants did
more harm than good, and that ex-
panding currency could AFFORD only
temporary relief unless supplemented by
constructive developments.
A steadying factor on price declines
was official announcement that 45.8 per
cent Of last years domestic wheat crop
would be used within the county where
produced. This proportion compared
with 10-year average Of 80 per cent
and tended to confirm reports Of in
creased activity Of rural grtst mills.
Notice was also taken that the amount
Of wheat afioat for importing countries
had decreased S,168,00 bushels In the
last week. Corn and oats largely paral-
leled the course Of wheat values.
Provisions were about steady, helped
by hog market upturns.
