mo one Of the problems can be
possibly dealt with In isolation from
the others, nor can any single coun-

Slackening in demand at the

WHEAT CLOSES
LOWER AFTER
EARLY RALLY
Liquidation, Evening-Up
Are Weakening Factors
in All Grains.
BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE
United Press stah Correspondent

CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-Wheat made
firm start and a tame finish on
the Board OF Trade today, closing
a major fraction lower. Strength at
Liverpool and imitation measures
boosted prices early but there was
an easy reaction on scattered Ii
quotation and weekend evening up.
Trading was not large. The mar
ket lacked aggressive support des-
pite favorable developments such as
lower Russian acreage, prospects for
settling the war debt problem and a
reduction in Indian acreage. Corn
was firm on talk of export business,
American prices being well under
Argentine. Oats was easy and rye
weak.
At the close wheat was q to 4
cent lower, corn i cent lower to Is
cent higher, oats 4 to 4 cent lower,
rye z to Is cent lower and barley
unchanged. Provisions were steady.
Receipts were two cars of wheat,
forty EIGHT of corn and eleven oats.
Cash prices were unchanged to z
cent lower on wheat, corn and oats.

POOR'S INDEX
SHOWS UPTURN !
FOR DECEMBER
Fourth Successive Monthly
Rise Recorded at Close
of 1882.
By Tines Snecial


NEW YORK. Jan. 21.-Poor's in
deX of general business rose to $50,
in December, an increase Of 90 over
the November figure, according to
Poor'S business and markets bulle~
tin.
Automobile production during De-
cember showed a substantial in
crease over November - normally
there is a seasonal falling off dur
ing this period. Output is contin-
uing fairly active this month. The
squirt in motor car manufacture was
not great enough to offset the
Slackened demand for steel from
other sources.
Steel activity fell off during De-
cember. slightly more than was
Seasonably expected. Thus far this
month it has showed some gain, but
automobile manufacturers still are
the only major users of steel. The
value Of mail order house and de-
partment store sales did not in
crease so much as SeaSonably ex-
pected in December.
Electric power production had a.
better than seasonal gain in Deem
Der, and weekly reports so far this
month indicate improvement. Con-
sumption of crude rubber in this
country was reduced by an amount
greater than was seasonably ex-
pected in December: coal and coke
production increased slightly more
than do their seasonal indexes. 81.
The textiles situation remains
about the same; mills are satisfac-r
torily active, with the rayon division
continuing in the lead. Boot and
shoe manufacturing is gradually IN
creasing. The index for January
may show a slight drop from the
December figure.
