Stocks pointed downward from the start but trading was dull until the early afternoon, when a 15-minute selling flurry put the ticker tape be- hind and brought losses ranging from 1 to around 3 points. There were a number of mild recoveries later but support was of the ultra-cautious sort. Speculative enthusiasm was at a low ebb. for any substantial rally. Grains, cot- ton, silver and rubber were rather heavy. Bonds were quiet and mixed. International dollar rates again were | gent, narrow, Shares off around 2 points included Bethlehem Steel, Chrysler, Nash, American Telephone, Western Union, nak Johns-Manville, American Can, Case, Columbian Carbon, Allied Chemical, American Tobacco B, U. 8. Smelting, American Smelting and Cerro de Pasco. Most of the rails lost a point or more, as did General Motors, U. 8. Steel, Sears-Roebuck, DuPont, Doug- Jas Aircraft, National Distillers and U. 8, Industrial Alcohol. Some re- sistance was shown by the utilities, Net declines ranged from 1 to sround 2 points at the close. Trans- fers approximated 1,550,000 shares. —_______________-@ Produce Markets | |™* oe CHICAGO Chicago, March 18..-()—Steadiness Predominated in eggs, butter and poultry Monday with prices little changed.

Notwithstanding that rallies in the sh Wheat market followed late upturns of cotton prices, wheat failed to re- cover with vigor. Uneasiness over labor unrest was a conspicuous fac- 3, | tor in grains, Wheat closed unstable, %-% under Saturday's finish, May 87-87%, July 87%-%; corn unchanged to \ lower, May 507-51, July 52%; oats %-% gown, and provisions varying from 20 cents decline to an advance of 2cents. More than a cent a bushel tumble an wheat was witnessed before buy- induce slight rallies. Bears noted a ing power developed sufficiently to substantial increase of the amount of wheat on ocean passage, with word that Liverpool stocks of wheat had enlarged so much that there was dif- ficulty in obtaining’ storage space. Weakness of the cotton market | acted later as an additional drag on wheat values. Corn and oats sympa- thized with downturns of wheat. Provisions paralleled declines of grains, t | MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES RECOVER: AFTER SLUMP Minneapolis, March 19.-~()—Wheat futures improved somewhat before’ the Close here Monday and hecame quite , | active for a time because of Washing- ton news on the Bankhead cotton con- 4 | trol bill and a silver bill to be taken up by the house, Trade improved noticeably and prices rallied about a cent from the low levels reached early. The close was: fractionally before the close of Saturday. May wheat closed %c lower, July Yee lower, and September %c lower. Coarse grains also recovered some- what from the drop but could not overtake the previous close and fin- ished fractionally off. May oats clos- ed %¢ lower and July %-%¢ off. May rye closed %c lower and July %c down. May barley closed %sc lower and July %c off and May flax was down %c. July closed 1%c lower. Cash wheat offerings were light and Gemand was good for the better types. Ordinary quality offered for local un- '% | loading held unchanged and was only in fair demand, Winter wheat offer- ings were still ght and wanted. Du- rum wheat of choice and most desir- able quality was lacking. Ordinary quality was in quiet demand and un- changed. Corn demand was fair to good again and prices firm. Oats offerings were 4 |iight and in fair to good demand. Rye demand was steady and offerings of desirable milling quality light. - Bar- ley demand was quiet to slow. Offer- ings were liberal.

State business was suspended from 2 to 2:15 p. m. Entomologists experienced in grass- hopper plagues estimate that there is one chance in nineteen that the weather will control hoppers. There is even less of a chance that grass- hoppers will be controlled by weather conditions over an area as wide as infestation is likely to be in North Dakota this spring.
