Purchasing by commission hou ses, professional traders, and some covering by recent short sellers lifted prices moderately above the previous close and despite some , profit taking the gains were main ' : tained. .- - , Wheat closed 4 1 cent abushel above yesterday's finish, Septem ber $1.44-, oats H- up, Sep ' tember 72 172, and rye : un , . changed to higher. September ; $1.00-. : : , :, There wasn't much news to af fect the market ; Cash interests were moderate buyers of wheat futures at times, and shipping demand was h fair. Reports at the board of trade said government owned feed wheat was being sold at the rate of 20,000 ' - to 100,000 bushels daily. Brokers ' ; said they expected . that some spring wheat would be delivered on September contracts, a some ' what unusual circumstance, v r Rye showed fair strength, a i- continuance of yesterday's upward ' movement, but trading was light. Traders said the cash rye market . was rather narrow. " '' Oats were fairly active. The September contract sold at - the season's highest prices 72 . cents a bushel, which surpassed the previous high of 72 cents. Cach . oats also sold at a new seasonal high. No. 2 white oats sold, in the , 'cash market for 76 cents a bu shel, highest in 15 years. There was no pressure on the market and buyers of the September fu ture had to bid up prices in or ,. der to obtain grain.

A Industrials. Rails Recover Iilany Market Leaders Have Difficulty in Making Comeback By BERNARD S. O'HARA NEW YORK, August 24(JP)-Se-lected . industrials and rails - save fairly good account of themselves on a recovery shift in Tuesday's stock market but many leaders found the comeback a bif difficult. ' The revival was of the : slow motion variety in comparison with yesterday's largest sell-off in about three weeks. Bidding cropped up at the start for a number of issues that have been depressed lately and, at the close, advances of fractions - to a point outnumbered declines of as much. . - Commitments apparently were reinstated here and there on the theory the more than 4 points de cline in the averages from the mid-July high had served as a healthy correction and had put the list in a position to respond to any worthwhile bullish news. War dispatches were exception ally cheerful, particularly" the re cord air bombing or Berlin and the Russian mop-up at Kharkov. These ; events, however, strength ened peace psychology "and kept many customers in neutral terri tory. - Persistence - of caution also was. .attributed partly to the thought , big events would follow the ending of the Churchill Roose velt conferences. The Associated Press 60-stock average was up 3 of. a point at 49.1, first advance after four con secutive setbacks. The upturn lacked breadth, only 745 individ ual issues being traded against 838 yesterday. Of these 334 were high er, 202 down and 209 unchanged. Transfers , totalled 482,530 shares compared with 719,490 the day before. - Cutting of Elk Season Asked GOLD BEACH, Aug. 24.-P-Curry county residents asked the state . game commission Monday to cut in half the newly declared open season on elk here in order to save the animals from decima tion. Farmers estimated there are only 150 elk in the county, all quite tame because there has been no open season for years.
