CHICAGO, Feb. 2. — Progress to- ward enactment of farm credit ‘legis- lation has aided-in giving a modera’ upward tendency in grain prices this week. Compared with a week ago, wheat this morning was %c to 1igc higher, with corn showing «an. ad- vance 1% to 1% and oats %o toe. In provisions there was a setback ranging from five to 22c. The upward slant of the wheat market became especially | evident atter all doubt was practically. re- moved as to the passage of the Len- root bill in the senate. Decided’ fall- ing off in the amount of wheat arriv- ing at primary terminals, together with fears that zero weather would damage winter wheat unprotected by snow, counted also as incentives to putchase, and so likewise did Britisa acceptance of suggested terms’ of payment of the war debt favorable to Bears Unable to Shake Mar- ket in View of Cold and Low Receipts. CHICAGO, Feb. 3—With a cold Wave overspreading the w'nter crop belt and with temperatures around zero in the southwest, wheat averaged @ little higher in price today during the earlf dealings. Lack of any im- portant export inquiry, however, and the continued unsettled foreign polit! cal ejtuation counted against a de- cided advance: May delivery was rel- atively weak as compared with other months. The opening, which varied from unchanged figures to %c high er, with May $1.18% to $1.18% and July $1.13% to $1.18%, was followed by something of a sag for May and a@ maintenance of ‘strength in July and September. Bears made no headway by an effort to stress the failure of the senate to amend the Lenroot bill by attaching a foreign credit measure. Receipts continued to decrease at the s'x leading markets. The close was steady at the same as yesterday's finish to %c higher, with May $1.18 to $1.18%% and July $1.13 to $1.13%. Corn and oats were firmer with wheat. After opening %o off to %@ %c higher, May 74%(c to to 74%c, the corn market scored slight gains. Subsequently, further rains in Ar- gentina cased the market a_ bit. Prices closed unsettled at Ke net de- cline to a shade advance, with May 74% to 743ge. Oats started unchanged to %c up, May 44%c and later hardened « little more. Provis‘ons reflected firmness of hog values.

WEEK’S BUSINESS IN GRAIN IS DONE AT INCREASE IN PRICES the United States. Enlarged shipments of wheat to| Europe from Argentina was the prin-| cipal bearish influence in the whest market, and was coupled with the fact that the United States visible supply was greater for the first time than the corresponding total last | year. Talk of a dearth of export bust- | ness was somewhat discounte’ by es- timates that the actual exports of the United States wheat for January would reach 18,000,000 bushels. Corn developed independent strength as a result of apparently wotl found- ed advices thet the probable yield of} corn {n Argentina had been sharply} curtailed by drought. Oats were responsive to the action of corn and wheat. Slackening of export demand was sald to esplain the broa@ sag in the provision market.

One of the widest fluctuations dur ing the week occurred in Fisher Body, which dropped to 150 as against this year's high of 213%, recovering later to 165. Other motor stocks, particularly Chandler and the Durant issues on the curb, reacted In sym- pathy but all made good recovery later. The United States Steel corpora- tion's report for the last quarter of 1922, which showed that only 9% of the $1.25 quarterly dividend on the common etock had been earned, w: | disappointing to the speculative com- | munity which had counted on @ gur- plus above dividends and steel shares were temporarily depressed as a re- sult. Chairman Gary explained later that the poor showing resulted from the fact that the plants of the com- | pany had been at work on low priced business placed early in the spring and summer and that the recent. 20 | per cent wage increase added $4,000,- 000 monthly to the payroll. Higher | prices for steel products, he sald, would result in a better showing next quarter. Oil shares developed strength on the announcement of further in- creases in the price of crude oll. Coppers benefitted by the resumption of dividends on Butte and Superior and sales of the red metal at 15% cents a pound, the highest price in some time.
