CHICAGO, Aug. ao-OIVWheat , retreated toward the close Friday -' and final prices were down almost tur cent Failure of several small attempts to push the market high- er discouraged traders and buy ing support .was withdrawn late in the session. Rye and I oats , turned reactionary with the bread 'cereal. With actviity on a light scale, wheat finished H- down, Sep tember $1.44V4, December $1.46 $1.45, oats were unchanged to Va lower, September 70?i, and rye -was down - September Announcement of minor ad justments in the ceilings on soft wheat flour, designed to permit Pacific coast and other western ' soft wheat millers, to compete in an equal basis in the middle west and east with mills in, those terri tories, had little influence on prices. Marketings of wheat in the soft wheat area of the central v west are pracically nil. Traders were inclined to be cautious on the basis of news dis patches from Washington that the new cost of living subsidy plan will be in operation before con gress returns next month. Wheat receipts at major termi nals declined drastically, only . 1,859,000 bushels arriving against 3,128,000 bushels a week ago. Country elevators were reported as filling rapidly. Grain men said farmers found it attractive to im pound wheat under the govern ment loan in the northwest, where prices are 3 to 5 cents below the loan rate.
