Inflation talk had died down, and ‘Wednesday's sharp advance of wheat {Values was regarded as having under- mined the trade position.

Oats % | unchanged to ts lower, and provisions unchanged to 20 cents up. Declines of wheat prices were checked by some purchases on resting orders to absorb July at 86 cents. This was at less than a cent under Wednesday's finish. The chief immediate subject of interest to trad- ers appeared to be the question what the senate at Washington would do % with a finance committee recommen- 4 | dation that the five cents tax on grain rt futures dealings be reduced to one cent. Traders contended that the tax on ,|Srain futures had narrowed the mar- kets and depressed the price of farm- ers’ grain. Talk was general that the % finance committee's recommendation should be adopted without delay so that the markets would be able to ab- sorb the new crops which soon will start - Meanwhile, business in all the grain futures pits was nearly at a standstill much of the time, with Prices showing little power to rally.

Most of the wheat was wanted for local unloading. Winter wheat was in fair to good demand and steady. Durum was in slack demand, there being no competition for offer- ‘%s | ings, premiums were lower.
