Chicago Grain
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
CHICAGO, December 23.-Two dis
tinct bugbears faced wheat traders
today, and did good deal to bring
about lower price levels for at least
the time being.
First was a notice from the Chicago
Board of Trade Clearing House that
$4,000 bushels of wheat had been de-
livered this morning on December
contracts. This in itself was not es-
pecially disturbing, but ethe sugges-
ton was implicit that further similar
large deliveries might be impending
before January l should open a new
vista.
In the second place, current trade
advices emphasized that Canada
continued to keep her wheat prices
right on an import basis into the
United States.
1t was especially pointed out that
the action of the Canadian govern
ment Wheat Board as to prices has
the effect Of preventing United States
markets from advancing if they wanted
to. Acting as a further weight on
Chicago wheat values was talk that
-four demand in this country re-
manned slow at the moment not
withstanding bakers and jobbers'
stocks were reported as perhaps the
scantieSt on record.
Corn, oats and provisions declined
with wheat.
