MAKING OF DRUG
TO BE- INCREASED

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26. Up
To increase production of penicil-
lin. the government will give spe-
cial priorities assistance to pro-
ducers of the drug and to builders
of new penicillin plants.
Announcing this today, the Civil
ian Production Administration said
so-caled &C ratings would be is
sued for:
l. Capital equipment which will
substantially increase production
or which is needed to replace
eouipment in danger Of break
down.
2. Construction materials for new
plants or expansion Of existing
plants.
3. Production materials and
maintenance, repair and operating
supplies, when these cannot be pro-
cured without special assistance.
CPA said the new program was
necessary because international de-
mand for penicillin is soaring and
this country is being called upon
to meet the needs of number OF
other nations.
The agency said output of Ameri'
can plants this quarter was expect
ed to total about 5000, 000.00 peni-
cillin units, as compared with a
total demand for 2,273, 900, 600 units.

Cotton
NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Dec. 26-(P-Cot-
ton futures rallied 10 cents to $l20
a bale in moderately active trad
ing today as persistent mill buy
ing against textile orders met a
scarcity of orders. The upward
movement brought in considerable
short covering and new commits.
sion house demand for later posi-
lions which showed the largest
gains for the day.
Showing tightness in spot cotton,
rapid reduction Of stocks and ae-
tive export inquiry supported the
uptrend. Traders felt that addition.
al offerings of one million bales
of government cotton holdings to
be made by the Commodity Credit
Corporation next month would moi
be a depressing factor in view Of
the scarcity of cotton in the open
market.
It was estimated mills would
again become active buyers Of cot
ton after the turn of the year with
prospects for a gradual increase
in textile output.

Grain
CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Dec. 26 - R) - The
price of July wheat futures MT a
new seasonal high of 81. 79as a bush
Ell today as trading in the grain
market became more active on Of
ferings from southwestern inter-
ests, and some short covering.
The July delivery scored an ad-
vance of "a cent bushel, the first
time in several days that the quo
tations had budged more than
minor fractions.
Other grains also were firm, with
rye again attracting chief trading
interest and continuing its upward
trend on continued strong demand.
Some liquidation of May oats wiped
out early small gains.
Wheat closed unchanged to q
cent higher than Saturdays final
quotations, May $1.80h; corn ufl-
changed at $1181s ceilings; oats
70 lower to Is higher, May 777z-ss;
rye unchanged to lis higher, May
s1.745s-A, barley Is higher to %
lower, May $1.22A.
Some traders preferred to remain
on the sidelines, apparently await
ing more abundant marketing OF
actual grains which some believed
would be soon after the New Year
when lower income tax rates will
apply.
There was conflicting opinion,
however. Other observers express
ed belief the income tax has been
over-rated as a factor in the with
holding of grain from market, ana
what seems more likely is farmers
have adequate finances on hand for
current needs and are waiting more
definite crop developments, par
ticularly wheat.
One trader said that in recent
past years farmers have been in
clined to hold their grain, finances
permitting, so long as new crop
prospects were poor or in doubt.
Although large supplies of wheat
are believed to be in farm storage,
recent reports were that Kansas
wheat lands had not received ade-
quate moisture during tho autumn
months and that the new cron con.
dition was not as good as asy ear
ago.
