Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,

NEW YORK, August ll.-A thin
stock market wilted today as shares
dropped fractions to a point or more.
From the start skimpy activity and
the uneven behavior of stocks pro-
vided yardstick of traders lethargy
and the dampening influence of pend
ing legislation, brokers said.
During the first half of the session
moderate gains and losses were about
evenly divided. Recent reductions in
gasoline inventories for time in
spired oils, but as the afternoon wore
on this group came under the shadow
Of declines in other sections of the
list.
In the absence of more satisfactory
explanations of the markets lack OF
stamina. some observers attributed it
to the decline in wheat and cotton.
Losses in wheat were recouped later.
Relieving the drab color of trading
were gains in some amusements,
sugars, rails, aircrafts and special-
ties

shares.

CHICAGO GRAIN
By the Associated Press

bS the ASSOCIATED Press.
CHICAGO, August 11-Sudden late
clght-about-f action of wheat values
today hoisted the Chicago market Az
cents from earlier bottom levels and
much more than wiped out losses.
The late rally of wheat prices in
Chicago was influenced largely by a
steep upturn of the Winnipeg market.
1t was reported that the Saskatchewan
wheat pool had purchased 1000 900
bushels of Canadian wheat for relief
purposes
Some reaction from the top took
place in the final dealings. At the
close, wheat futures in Chicago varied
