proximated $4,000 shares, one Of
the largest aggregates in about

skepticism anent market repercus-

TO the Nazi sweep inspired some
speculative cheer, it was suggested,
and further strength of major COM

Chicago Grain
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Buying of
grain futures today was inspired
chiefly bv strength in cotton and
other commodities. Soybeans sold
at times at the highest levels since
May, 1887, oats sold at new highs
for the season and wheat at some
stages was almost equal to the sea-
sons best levels.
The September wheat contracts,
however, were inclined to lag largely
because of the fairly substantial de-
hverles. The tenders totaled IO45.-
600 bushels. The nearby contract
encountered support from elevator
interests, which sold December con-
tracts at price differentials which
ranged from about 4 to AS cents.
Wheat and corn closed under
heavy pressure, however, with final
sales in most cases at or near the
lowest levels of the day.
Final prices for wheat were 5:
cents of on the September delivery

Der Sl.17l2-5s. Corn was UNCHANGED
