AS LABOR TROUBLES CREATE PESSIMISM Feeble Rally Is Recorded To- ward Close; Transactions Are Meager Chicago, March 21.—(#)—Despite reports of unfavorable crop ccndi- tions southwest and northwest alike, wheat prices d lower almost we throughout Wednesday's trading, but rallied a little at the last. Based largely on advices relating to labor difficulties and to proposed slock market restrictions, grain trade sentiment was pessimistic. Transac- 4|tions in wheat were of unusually '% | meager volume. Wheat closed unsettled, 1 to % un- 7% | der Tuesday's finish, May 87% to %; y, |Suly 87% to %. Corn unchanged to * down, May 50% to 51; July 52% to Oats 's to % off and provisions 4 | Unchanged to 5 cents decline. Wheat bears pointed out that, al- #s| though the new code as to grain ex- changes had been signed and that this was regarded as a constructive factor, uncertainties as to stock ex- change regulatory measures at Wash- ington remained a cause of misgiving. 4 | With little or no vigor shown on, the| purchase side of the wheat market, scattered offerings of futures proved 14 |Sufficient soon to pull values down £|More than a cent a bushel under | Tuesday's finish. Corn and oats gave way with wheat. Provisions were easy, affected by “| weakness of grains. MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES : RALLY TOWARD CLOSE Minneapolis, March 21.—(?)—News was discouraging or lacking at the outset of the market here Wednesday 2,,|but improved toward the end and wheat futures rose from a lower start to finish around the closing level of Tuesday. News of dust storms in Kansas and Oklahoma and a further bulge in Duluth durum wheat futures attract- & jed some attention while there was a good demand for May futures. There 5,| WAS no pressure on September and July futures were neglected and fell ¥%, | out of line. May and September wheat closed et while July finished %c off, Coarse grains closed tert higher after following wheat most of 4 {the session. May oats closed 1%c higher while July finished unchanged May rye advanced % while July clesed % higher. May bar- ley closed 1% up and July showed a 11% advance. Both May and July flax closed unchanged. Cash wheat tone continued very firm and there was a good demand for the smaller volume of offerings. Diversion point demand for types is very good. Winter wheat was nomi- nally unchanged and in good de- mand. Durum wheat was in fair to good demand and desirable offerings , | Were very light. Corn offerings were fairly liberal but in ready demand if of good yel- low color. Interest in mixed quality slowed down a little. Oats demand was steady and offerings light. Rye {|demand was fair to good and offer- ings of desirable milling quality held light. Barley tone was a shade bet- «| ter_and average quality showed some improvement. Flax offerings were 3 | heavier but in fair demand and firm.
