Oregon Wednesday Morning August 1. 1S3 Grains Advance In Chicago Pit Show of Strength Is Best in Weeks; Mill Baying .Causes Upturn CHICAGO, Aug. JO-ipy-Gralns made tbelr best show of strength . in some weeks today, wheat ad- .aneinjc as much as two cent a . hnsbel at times, Deliveries of all grains closed at or near the best level of the day. After a slow start with both wheat and corn selling - belo Monday's final prices, the tenpa of trading suddenly increased and an apward trend was maintained throughout the session. - Final prices for wheat were lMt-1 cents shove Monday'i closing quotations, with the May delivery in the vanguard. The September contract closed at 70-; December 72-, and May 73-. Tone Is Firm ' The firm tone here was attrlb Qted to strength of the Minne apolis market. Most of the day the northwest market led the price upturns in American mar kets on buying attributed to mills and an apparent lack of any Im portant hedging pressure. The close at Minneapolis was l-2 cents higher, the latter on the September delivery, while the Kansas City market lagged much of the time, a closing spurt there pushed prices 2 -24 cents high er. The Winnipeg market held to the pegged minimum levels, but. at Buenos Aires, where the price , pegs were removed, wheat at noon was 2-2 cents lower and corn - off. - A feature of the market was the ability of the September wheat contract to follow the ad vance in the deferred positions despite some further occasional liquidation pressure. Reports from Minneapolis said that about 15 per cent of the re ceipts there was free wheat, sug gesting that the greater portion was going into storage presuma bly under the government loan program. . Weather conditions were re ported favorable for harvesting In the northwest and in the Ca nadian provinces. Closing Quotations 1 NEW YORK, Aug.

Without much Important spot sews from either home or abroad to go on, stocks, chalked up gains of fractions to 2 points, bonds put on a show of quiet strength and commodities tilted forward. The Associated Press average of CO issues was np .4 of a point at 41.9, best advance for any single session since - August 9. Transfers, while still far under the pay level for commission houses, expanded to 240,800 shares against yesterday's 24-year low of 121,850. Breadth of the come-back was exemplified by the fact 8X2 indi vidual issues were traded com pared with 402 the day before. Of the total, 201 were np, it down and 135 unchanged. The main factor in the upward shift, brokers said, was the idea of some analysts that, with sell ing drying up to a mere dribble. the chances for at least substan tial temporary upward reversal were better than ordinary. In ad dition, business prospects, buoyed by the long-term defense spend ing, program, remained fairly bright.
