Spreaders UnsehIe
Wheat Prices on
Chicago Market
Buy December Contracts
And Sell Moy and
July Options
BY FRANKLIN MULLIN,

CHICAGO, Dec. 3.-Activity OF
spreaders who bought December
wheat contracts and sold options
expiring in May and July unsettled
the grain market today, overshad-
owing purchasing inspired by a pri-
vate forecast of heavy acreage aban-
donment and subnormal yields in
the winter wheat belt.
Trade was not particularly active
but it was enlivened by leading pro-
fessionals who bought December
against sales Of deferred deliveries
In unwinding previous spreads. The
discount of about 3 cents for De-
cemb3r contracts also attracted cash
and elevator interests and there were
indications Of some removing of
hedges. possibly against cash busi-
ness In connection with recently an
nounced subsidized sales to British
millers. December wheat moved up
as high as 63as, or "a net gain, while
May dropped to 657s, or ,. net loss.
Wheat closed " lower to \ higher

was 1s-h2 down, December Al, May
5o1a-h; oats 1s-2s higher; rye un-
changed to is of; lard 5 cents up to

The easy tone at Winnipeg. where
wheat losses amounted to almost q
cent, affected this market. Denial

Board had insufficient stocks for de-
livery on December sales also in

Final Prices Are Down

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-Heavy liq-
uidation carried cotton into lower
ground again today. March eased
from 825 to 8.13 and closed at 8.l4
with final prices IA to 10 points net
lower.
Weakness at Liverpool was re-
flected only partially by opening
losses Of 3 to 6 points. Selling soon
increased, however, and the offer
ings readily supplied scale-down
trade price-fixing orders. In addi-
ton to selling through commission
houses for domestic and foreign ac-
count, some offerings were credited
to mills against unhedged cotton
or unsold goods.
The downward movement of the
market in the past two days dis
tlrbed confidence in values based
largely on the stabilizing influence
Of the cotton loan program, cotton
analysts said.
Commodity Credit Corp. reported
2l5,095 bales pledged to the loan
during the week, bringing the total
thus far this season to 3,111,4 ,450.
Cotton on shipboard awaiting
clearance at the close Of the week
estimated at 100000 bales. against
10000 last year and 252,000 two

Dy the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-A sharp
rafy In u. S. Government bonds
overshadowed narrow and irregular
movements in other sections of the
market today.
Advances in the Government list
ranged up to 1892 of a point for
Treasury 21as of 1948 at 1853. Gains
Of 1892 to 9-32 were literally sprin-
kled through the remainder of the
active Federals. The good showing
was traced by bond experts to
switching operations by dealers in
order to adjust individual portfolios
in light of the Treasury's December
is financing plans, made public on
Friday by Secretary Morgenthau.
Domestic corporate obligations,
for the most part, kept in the back
ground. There were few individ-
ual moves of point or more in
either direction, but the great ma
jority of trades were made within
minor fractions either way of Fri
days closing levels.
Ending shade higher were Beth
lehem Steel 3s4s, International Hy-
dro Electric IS, Chesapeake g. Ohio
ANS, Remington Rand 4l4s, South
ern Railway As and Studebaker IS.
Losing slight ground were Mis-
souri, Pacific SIS at 1917, Shell Union
3hs at l04b and Great Northern As
at 93l7.
A break of 31a points in Italian
Government 7c to 7612 was the high
light of the foreign dollar group.
Weakness was associated with nerv-
BUSINESS of holders over that coun-
try's squabble with France over COL
onies. Rome IS and Milan 6Rs like
wise lost a point or so. German
loans were a bit higher.
