Steady tendencies persisted at the

mostly were in minor fractions,
there were few spreads of l to 2

The war news again was viewed
as selective bullish influence,
although attendance in boardrooms
was too small to take full advan-

Many brokers and their customers
extended Fridays holiday to Mon

The Associated Press average of

October II, l94l. Transfers for the

1t was the lowest turnover since

For 1912 the share volume hit
bottom since 1914. The years ag-

Wheat Reaches Peak
Since 1887; Corn and

BY FRANKLIN MULLIN,
Associated Press Market Writer.

A>'OCldttQ fTPSS MdTkeI WRITER
CHICAGO, Jan. "A large-scale
new year buying movement today
swept wheat, corn and rye prices
up almost 2 cents a bushel, wheat
reaching the highest quotations
posted here since 1897 while other
cereals were the best in several
months.
Mills and professional dealers,
many of whom were covering pre-
vious short sales, led the buying.

MAY So 3, and rye lis-lla higher,
May 77Ss-a4, At these levels wheat
showed an advance of 7 to cents
since December /, corn about cents
and rye cents.
Flour Trade Quiet.
Although mills were buyers of
wheat, flour business was belived
confined mostly to routine trade
coupled with some purchases for
military and lend lease purposes
since Government agencies were
understood to be after about 600, 900
barrels. Details of the new flour
ceilings which become effective
Monday were released but, because
of the length of the order and the
nature Of the regulations by locali-
ties, millers had not yet determined
the exact ceiling prices under which
they are to operate. Officials of the
Millers National Federation pointed
out that technically -four business
under the new ceilings was Illegal
until Monday.
Extension until January 81 of the
period during which producers in
North Central States may apply for
Government loans on 1912 wheat
also stimulated some buying on the
theory that this would increase the
volume under loan in that area. par
ticularly since prices in the North
Central region were on a less favor
able basis compared with loan rates.
Reports that the Commodity Credit
Corp. may call loans on old wheat
stored on farms also attracted at
tention.
Spot Wheat Advances.
Spot wheat prices were quoted
al cent higher, with No. 2 hard
around $l42, or 10 cents over the
Government loan rate.
Corn, rye and oats borrowed most
of their strength from wheat al
though higher spot prices of these
grains stimulated buying of futures
Feeding requirements remained the
principal bullish factor as far as
corn and oats are concerned. In
late dealings No. 2 old yellow corn
sold at 81 cents, new high since
1887.
