CHICAGO GKAINS

CHICAGO, March 18. WR)--A late
buying rally turned wheat prices
fractionallyp higher after moderate
profit-t taking selling had induced q
heavy tone abroad and on the
Chicago board of trade.
At the close wheat was 3s to y
cent higher, new corn Y to Is cent
higher, old corn unchanged, and
oats y cent lower to Is cent higher.
Slowing up of the demand for
wheat by European importers and
expectations of heavier Argentine
shipments were the main factors
behind the decline in prices both
here and abroad.
Export business was light. The
United Kingdom bought 375,000
bushels of Australian wheat but
aside from this there was little
activity.
