LIVESTOCK
CHICAGO LIVESTOCK

CHICAGO, Oct. 20-(P)-Most
hog prices dropped so cents to-
day, cattle were steady to so
cents down, and sheep were
moderately active and so cents
higher.
Butcher hogs ranged from
S27.50 to S28.75 for most good
and choice kinds, the best get
ting s2885, while good and
choice sows ranged mostly be-
tween $26.5O and S28 90.
Good and choice fed steers
brought S27.5O to $34.50 and
heifers $4,000 to $4,000, the best
of each type getting $3.50 and
$3.50 respectively. Good beet
cows sold at $500 to $4,000
good heavy bulls had a practical
top of $3.50, and vealers sold at
S27.00 and under. Good and
choice stock and feeder cattle
were S21.5O to $500, nasty
S2450 and below.
Good and choice slaughter
lambs went for one price, $22.25
and comparable slaughter ewes
brought 5000.
Shippers bought 500 hogs Of the
salable receipts of $780, while
packinghouses received 5000 di-
rect. Other receipts totalled 49,
S"' r@ttle, 800 calves, and 5000
sheep.

BuHish Forces Dominate
Stock Trading Activities

recent Jump in crude rates. Car
rlers were popular on the belief
these issues were behind the
market.
The announced merger plans
for Pacific Western Oil and Mis-
sion Corp. Into Sunray Corp.
gave these stocks an early bulge
but they subsequently, stumbled
over offerings. Pacific Western
ended up IA at 81 IA and Mis-
sion off 3-4 at SO 1-2. Sunray
slipped. Tidewater Oil and Skelly
Oil, involved in the merger, also
retreated.
American Woolen common
was off 3 IA at 46 3-4 with the
prior preferred down 4 7-8 in the
wake of disappointing third
quarter net compilation. Decca
Records yielded l 7-8 at u 3-4
in reflection of the Petrillo ban
against music recordings.
Bonds Irregular
A few railway bonds climbed
on Supreme Courts decisions
but most loans were indifferent.
At Chicago wheat touched the
highest level in 30 years and
finished up 4 "a to 3-4 cents a
bushel. Corn added 2 1-2 to 8
and oats 1 3-4 to l 7-8. Cotton
gained IS cents to S1.25 a bale.
In The Curb Patchogue-Ply-
mouth Mills was up 4 points on
a good disbursement. On the for
ward swing were Kaiser-Frazer,
Electric Bond & Share, Creole
Petroleum and Root Petroleum.
Humble Oils backed water along
with Salt Dome Oil and Aireon.
Turnover here was 100000 shares
versus 100000 in the previous
full stretch.

ton futures were firm today on
board trade and commission
house buying. Gains extended
to S1.80 a bale before the mar
ket eased partially on hedging
and profit taking Final prices
were 35 cents to S1.25 bale
higher. Mills, in anticipation of
a Tightening supply situation
covered a heavy volume of con-
tracts against textile sales. This
was augmented by covering of
about 10000 bales against gov
ernment cotton purchases. Trad
ers estimated about 10000 bales
have not been covered in futures
against the recent C. C. C.. pur-

cotton for Japan.
The trend of the French cleo

eXpediate financial aid to France
and permit her to resume Ameri-
can cotton purchases. Commits
sion house buying was attracted
by the strength in the outside
markets.
Futures closed 35 cents to
S1.25 a bale higher than the
previous close.
