Blue Ridge pf(ad). CHICAGO, December 22 —An up- ward trend of grain prices showed it- self early today, influenced by pre- dictions of a cold wave coming from the Northwest. Reports of growing shortage of domestic supplies of grain were also a factor. Opening un- changed to 3; higher. May 983-7s, wheat afterward rose all around, Corn started at !y off to % up, May 867%-7s, and subsequently showed general gains, With blizzard conditions expected to prevail over large areas. rising prices formed the rule as to both the leading grains until the market en- countered resistance from resting orders to sell on bulges. Helping to promote bullish sentiment were au- thoritative trade advices that, apart from France, European countries have #&maller stocks of wheat to draw upon than last year, that there is a big potential demand for all grains in the United States, and that the Southern Hemisphere looks like having 80,000,- 000 to 96,000,000 bushels less wheat available for export the coming calendar year than last year. Cables were also at hand that said threshing returns from parts of Argentina had proved disappointing. Increased feeding demand for corn and also curtailment of corn move- ment was predicted as a result of low temperatures and of snowfall. Bears contended, however, that the grain trade had definitely become a holiday affair. Some added that January was seldom a good month for a bull market in wheat, and that it usually provided a considerable price break, which often carried on into February. Oats today were firm. aided by strength of corn and wheat. Provisions slanted grains. Cent of Ga con 5s "45. Centof Garf 58’59 CentIIIE&G 6s°'61..
