" in Europe CHICAGO, Aug. -(P)-Grain prices staged a strong rally In arly dealings today and stubborn ly resisted pressure through most f the session, bat concentrated telling by eastern houses just be fore the close turned the wheat gains into a root and hammered down corn to minor fractional ad Tances. . September wheat led the re treat. After reaching a high of .76, a gain of 1 orer Mon day's closing quotation, the de livery finished at 74-, a net loss of Vt-A cents. Wheat closed the session unchanged to lowV er, December "lift-K. May 76. The market was Inclined to sag, after early firmness on scattered selling. Trade was light and Ap peared -to be mostly in the form of spreading operations. Other domestic markets moved about in line with Chicago. Buenos Aires remained about unchanged, v Talk of possible famine in Euro pean nations was being expanded and France was reported to be seeking pressure from Ithe United States on Britain to ease the blockade, which suggests possible movement of grain to Europe for relief purposes. Corn futures showed early firm Bess In a market described by traders as technically oversold. Oats followed corn, ending with gains of H- cents sIbo.

S--aPV-gteels. alreraf U, motors and specialties led a decline In today's stock market of fractions to .around 1 points. The list was shaky from the start and dealings picked up a little momentum near the end of the first hour. While offerings dwindled substantially from then on, few recoveries were tn evi dence at the close. The Associated Press areraae of 60 stocks was off .4 of a point at 42.S, largest drop for any ses sion since July 1. Transfers of 289,890 shares compared with 282,050 yesterday. Brokers attributed the set-hack mainly to European dispatches which hinted the long-threatened Hitler invasion of England might be near. Business news, on the whole, seemed more optimistic than oth erwise, and the heavy flow of corporate earnings statements showed a highly favorable com parison with a year ago. All of this, though, apparently counted for little as a market stimulant. General Motors slipped despite declaration of the Si dividend after Monday's close. Non-f errou jnetal shares had to contend with further cuts in the quotations for copper and lead. Bonds were narrowly mixed, as were commodities.
