DECATUR HERALD Wednesday, September 28, 1949. MARKETS Wheat, Except July, Reaches Seasonal Highs Markets at a Glance NEW YORK Stocks Lower; market steadies after early decline. Bonds--Lower; rails in supply. Cotton--Quiet; mill buying offset by hedging. CHICAGO Wheat-Closed higher; advance in flour prices.

Corn--Higher; advanced with wheat and on short covering. Oats Higher; March delivery up sharply. Soybeans Higher; foreign demand. Hogs--Steady to strong; top $20.25. Cattle--Mostly steady; top $34.

Chicago, Sept. 27 (AP) All deliveries of wheat except July reached new seasonal highs at the board of trade today. New flour business was the dominating factor in the advance, which crept up to around two cents after a slow start. Buying was attributed to commercial interests. A fair amount of business was by bakery flour buyers, with additional business anticipated on a 10-cent advance in family flour prices effective tomorrow.

At the close wheat was to higher, corn was to 134 higher oats were to 2 cents higher, rye was 2 to higher, soybeans were to 3 cents higher, and lard lagged closing 2 to 8 cents lower. CORN MET BUYING credited to elevator interests. Support also developed as the result of a stronger cash market. Traders said there was considerable short covering as prices advanced. Bookings on a toarrive basis were placed at 60,000 bushels.

Generally fair weather was on prospect for the corn belt, according to the five-day forecast, with temperatures slightly below normal only light' precipitation indicated. The weekly government weather and crop report said that only a small percentage of the crop could now be damaged by frost. Harvest of early corn has started in Missouri, where 90 per cent of the crop is safe from frost. UPTURNS ON WHEAT and corn brought demand for oats, with cash houses on both sides of the market at times. After a lower opening soybeans pushed ahead on reports that France had made inquiry about 15,000 tons of beans.

The early easiness was due to reports of ideal harvesting weather with crops running 20 to 40 bushels to the acre where harvest had been completed. Lard made little progress, regardless of reports that the army had taken around 4,600,000 pounds of lard and would be in the market for more. The easier tone was attributed to a weaker crude cottonseed oil market. The hog market was mostly steady. Soybeans, Wheat, Corn Up Local hog market quotations Tuesday remained unchanged from Monday's prices except for a slight decline on some grades of packers.

Top bids were all at $19.50. Heavy hens dropped one cent in the local produce markets Tuesday but that was the only change recorded in this market. Soybeans were up three cents to $2.10 today while new wheat was up three cents to $1.91 and corn was up one cent to 94 cents. Oats were steady at 56 cents. Hogs Scarce, Prices Strong Chicago, Sept.

27 (AP) A generally steady tone prevailed through most of the livestock market today. Lightweight hogs were scarce and strong. Ewes also were strong. Most good and choice butcher hogs sold at $16.50 to $20. The top reached $20.25.

Sows were mainly $15.50 to $19.25. Clearance of overnight supplies was good. Choice to prime steers topped at $34 and two loads of choice material were $33.50. High-good and choice steers and yearlings merited $28.50 to $32.50. Good and choice heifers fetched $25 to $29 with a few choice kinds taking $29.75.

Cows topped at $18.50, bulls at $19, and vealers at $28. A load of Canadian stock steer calves grading good brought $22. Peak of the western lamb trade went to choice Washingtons at $23.25 while good to choice natives ranged from $22.25 to $23. Choice Washington ewes, closely sorted, hit $10 and natives topped at $9.50. Salable supplies included an estimated 9,500 hogs on sale, 5,500 cattle, 500 calves, and 200 sheep.

Aircraft Issues Lead Stocks New York, Sept. 27 (AP) Aircraft stocks took off on a flight of their own today while the balance of the market coasted along at a lower price level. Aircraft issues advanced fractions to more than a point, with most of the buying centered in the last few minutes of trading. Trading volume expanded in the morning when prices were rapidly on the way down but later tended to contract. Turnover of 1,070,000 Chicago Board of Trade Quotations High Tues.

A. Administrator Paul Hoffman approved about 206 million dollars of E. C. A. funds to the British pay for Canadian wheat and flour.

Congressional cloakroom talk is that with a wheat glut here, he shouldn't have acted that way. And the threat is "'new But Mr. Hoffman is a supersalesman. He never had any difficulty in getting from Congress whatever he wanted. He'll not fail now.

He will argue that the British signed the Canadian contract two years ago, and should make good. And that E. C. money is tostimulate world trade. Moreover, the British will "other" farm products from us.

BUT THIS YEAR'S world-wheat supply will easily exceed that of last year-even if Soviet's output ran into some rain damage. Reports say Europe's output is surprisingly handsome. Despite this statistical situation, speculators are bullish on price prospects. And aren't disturbed by the wave of currency devaluations. Why? Because of political-minded Washington.

Their latest tip is that the President will blackjack Congress into legislating a "favorable" 1950 price-support bill. And increased government buying will cushion the effects of the foreign currency cuts. MOVIES--The world-wide wave of currency value cuts definitely reduces the foreign earnings of Hollywood's film firms. And a bad blow at that. But the spurt of American movie making in Europe isn't only to "eat" into blocked credits.

Many stories require foreign backgrounds and settings. And while television is a threat to the industry, it'll not be a killer. Net profits will be hurt. But movie houses will always be a source of By the way, box-office receipts rather than the movie-maker move advertising bare-chested men. BRICKLAYER The Montgom- ery (Ala.) Chamber of Commerce will sponsor, on Thursday, on Huntingdon college campus, the first public demonstrations of a 70 per cent money-saving bricklaying machine-invented by two G.I.'s.

It's a 20-pound device that will lay 10 bricks in one move, at three times the speed of hand labor. And build a wall at 36 cents a square foot. Operation is so simple, it makes every man a good bricklayer. Did you know that in all the bricklaying history, which dates back more than 5,000 years, there's been no drastic improvement in the method? The bricklayer introduces the machine age to that field. Wall Street--Some securities statisticians spreading the bull buy-tip that there'll not be a steel strike, and that the coal strike will not go on for more than two weeks.

But despite that, small investors aren't willing to pay fancy prices. Moreover, wealthy investors continue cautious.
