PAGE TWO “ WHEAT PRICES CLOSE STRONG Values Score Decided Gains| When Private Crop Esti- mates Ate Bullish Chicago, April 24—(AP)—Despite expected showers and notwithstand- | ng failure of the Liverpool market o respond to advancing prices here, icago wheat values scored decii- gains today. Dry weather con- dnues southwest, and private crop asbimates were construed as bull- sh, notably regarding heavy aban-/ jonment of acreage in nortiwest{ Kansas. Reports that vessel char-j ters had been made to move 2,00 000 bushels of corn from Chi and 500,000 bushels from me northern ports gave strength to the) torn market. Wheat closed strong, 1 1-4c to net higher, corn unchanged to 5: up, oats showing 3-8c to 2c ¢ and provisions varying from 2c de-| tline to a rise uf 22c. ~ Aside from a forecast of light moisture for western Nebraska and wsewhere in the middle and north- trn plains states, wheat news today was largely of a bullisch character, yxcept that Liverpool quotations were weaker than loo’ed for. In articular, advices at hand indicated hat sharp rallies in wheat valves were expected abroad owing to dam- age already done in American soft} winter wheat states and because of | neertainty as to new crops in large \reas of Europe. : Special notice was likewise taken today of reported liklihood of a poor wpring wheat crop in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. Lateness of ing, together with assertions that in a wide sweep of the Pacific northwest the ground is too wet to work was the chief reason given. out of about 2,500,000 acres of wheat in northwest Kansas, 90 per cent has been abandoned.
