NEW YORK UGAR

NEW YORK, April l1.-R-ln'
tensified naval operations off the
Scandinavian coast, a higher ac'
tuals market and the threat of in
creased freight rates were motivat-
ing factors in an advance in sugar
futures today.
Domestic contracts finished with
gains of 1 to 2 points on sales OF
22,750 tons. Cuban producing In
~terests were prominent buyers.
World futures slipped from the
days best under p~rofit-taking al
though retaining net gains of IL
to 1 IL at the close. Sales totaled
1880 tons. May closed 1.4S LIB;
July lab; Sep 1.45 LIB: Mich
LIB.
The raw market was firm, the
spot price advancing 6 points to
2.S3 cents a pound on sales made
late yesterday to refiners. Operat'
ors were active buyers today.
Refined sugar was firm at 4.50
cents. The advance in raWs was
believed to have greatly strength
ened cane refiners in maintaining
that basis.

NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, April IL Up -
Events on the Scandinavian war
front occupied the attention of cot
ton futures traders today, with most
operators avoiding new commit.
ments. Final prices were unchanged
to 6 points lower.
A tendency toward liquidation
found expression in early dealings
with selling credited to Bombay and
Liverpool interests. Pressure sub.
sided when foreign markets closed,
but lack of buying interest gave
some edge to southern and local
selling operations.
Principal support came from do
nestle mill accounts and mirrored
the recent heavy sales of cotton
cloth in the Worth Street textile
center.
Yesterdays cotton exports were
1886 bales; season so far 5,5S6,3S8.
Port receipts 1853; port stocks g.

Partial reactions followed an early
show of firmness in detachable
cottonseed oil futures today. Ac-
tive positions closed 1 to 8 points
higher on sales of 1873 contracts.
Earlier gains ranged up to 10
points.
Realizing activities and hedge
selling by trade interests upset the
advance that had conceded with
the rise in lard, hogs and grains.

WAR BABIES PUSH MANY OTHER STOCKS
CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, April IL Up War
news supplied the theme of grain
market action again today as
traders, although confused by Eu-
ropean developments, bid wheat
prices up about a cent a bushel.
Persistent profit taking and he'd
ging sales against acquisition of
wheat that has been stored for loans
kept the market under selling pres
sure much of the time and reduced
gains but the prices maintained a
strong undertone. Attention was
centered on developments in south.
eastern Europe which might pos
sibly involve the Danube wheat
growing region, where much of Eu-
ropes bread grain is raised.
Gains Of as much as 1 Is cent It
one stage lifted prices to within a
cent of the peaks scored Tuesday.
Wheat closed 1854 cent higher
than yesterday, May SLOT 1-2-1-4,
July $1.06 5-8-1-2. Corn was 3-8-
ga up, May SO IL, July 80 90; oats
1-S off to IA up; soy beans 1-2-5-S
lower; rye 1-4-3-S higher and lard
1915 higher.
Prospect of freezing temperatures
in parts of the hard winter wheat
belt, where the crop already is de-
layed and plants are weak, caused
some uneasiness. A hard freeze was
forecast for Kansas and Nebraska,
with cold weather extending into
parts of Texas and Oklahoma.
Further precipitation in the south.
west and over most of the soft wheat
belt was regarded as beneficial.
