CHICAGO, April 1-(P)-An &C
tive market held fed steers and
yearlings strong to somewhat high
er Monday as Eastern order buyers
continued to bulwark their accounts
and local small killers bought both
yearling steers and neifers freely.
Cows, bulls, and vealers were
steady to strong in a scarce mar
ket.
Of 1850 hogs received, $500
were direct consignments to pack
ers. and shippers took 1000 of the
5000 salables. All cleared quickly
at customary OPA ceilings of
$14.85 for barrows and gifts and
$14.1O for sows and stays.
Clearance was complete on re-
ceipts of 5000 sheep, of which 5000
were direct packers. Top prices of
S16.25 and $3.50 respectively contin-
ued from last week for best lambs
and slaughter ewes, medium and
good lambs fetching $14.00 to
$15.25.
Receipts totaled $4,000 cattle, 700
calves, and 5000 sheep.

Grain
CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 1-(P)- Some
grain futures traders who had said
they were going to sit this one out
finished the day Waiting around
the pits with other interests in
self-defense, and helping bid the
prices up.
Word came that May rye was as
much as the scent daily limit
higher at Winnipeg and that cash
demand was strong here even at
premium prices. A few interests
then swung over to the buying side
of futures and prices moved up
ward. Some shorts became ner-
vous and bought amounts neces-
sary to cover, adding strength to
the rally.
Although the demand was light,
offerings were scarce at the higher
levels.
Wheat and corn continued at
ceilings of S1.83 IL and $1.2l IL.
Oats closed unchanged to 1-2-cent
llS0eT lNdQ OdluIOe1y iliiAoli, 1'AN'
83-cent ceiling; rye unchanged TO
2 10 cents up, May 1921 1-4-3-8;
barley unchanged IL ahead, May
$1261-2 ceiling.
Of most interest at Washington
was the forthcoming report OF the
House Food committee On its IN
vestigation of supplies and prices
and a suggestion to the Depart
ment of Agriculture on how to pry
surplus stocks of wheat out OF
producers hands for use by the
Commodity Credit Corporation IN
it's export program.
This latter proposal is that the
government issue certificates TO
sellers of wheat guaranteeing them
the benefit of any rise in prices
until March /, 1947 for any gram
they sell to the government now.

feated in Congress, was believed
