CHICAGO GRAIN

futures were strong throughout the
session today in the most sustain

Bullish influences included re-
ports of flour sales to Mexico and
inquiry for more U. S. hard wheat
flour by that government, that the
government plans large loans
abroad to offset ending of lend
lease, and that the department of
Agriculture will ask congress for
extension of its lending capacity

NEW YORK, Aug. 22-P)-
Sharp comeback in secondary
