Wheat Makes
Minor Gaina
- Late Rally in Rye, 1
Oats, Lifts Cereal Out
Of Earlier Losses ,
By WILLIAM FERRIS
CHICAGO, Oct. 22-tfP)-A late
rally in rye and oats, helped along
by short -covering, put some life
into a grain market which had
drifted lower in moderate trading
most of the session today. Wheat,
off fractionally early, recovered
all its loss and finished with min
or gains. -
At the finish wheat was un
changed Xo' Vt higher, December
$1.54i. May 91.53, rye was
-l cent higher, December $1.12-A-H.
ats were up Va-IM and
barley was ahead , .
Wheat eased early on reports
an OPA ceilinff on soft 'wheat
would soon be announced. While
such action would not come as a
surprise, some traders ' felt it
would emphasize the possibility
of eventual ceiling on hard wheat.
Futures trading is based upon
hard wheat contracts. "" -
News that the food distribution
administration is requesting offers
on 40,000,000 pounds of enriched
wheat . flour, of which 10,000,000
pounds are for immediate deliv-,
ery, had little effect on wheat fu
tures. - ' ' . , . -
After Long Journey
Letter Returns at. Last r
BATON ROUGE, La. tf
Capt Guy W. Neom, special ser
vices officer at Harding field,
whote a half - page letter last June
to Morrison field. West Palm
Beach, Fla., about a soldier who
forgot to return a book to the
base library.
The letter followed the soldier
overseas, then to a training wing
and then to the headquarters of
Gen. Jimmy Doolittle, command-
ing general of the north African
strategic air force.
The general's adjutant for-
- warded the letter to the proper
wing, which sent it to the proper
group; which saw that it got to
the proper squadron which in
dorsed it with the information
that the cost of the book would
be deducted from the soldier's
' pay. .
After traveling back through
the same channels, the letter fin
ally arrived back at Harding field.

List Shows Steadier
Tendencies as Oils -.
Regain Equilibrium
By BERNARD S. OUARA
NEW YORK, Oct 22-P-Led by
yesterday's, stumbling oils, utility
preferreds, selected rails and in
dustrial specialties, the stock mar
ket moved into recovery ground
today although at a relatively
slow pace.
The list displayed steadier ten
dencies at . the start as . the oil
group began to regain Its equil
ibrium. At the close a number of
favorites were at new tops for
the year.
Oils' came back when under
writers who had arranged with
John D. Rockefeller, jr. to sell
1,000,000 shares of his Standard
Oil holdings to ' the ; public next
Monday announced that the sale
had been postponed. Proceeds of
the offering were to .be used" by
Mr. - Rockefeller for the purchase
of war bonds, It 'had been prev
iously stated. Reasons for calling
off the distribution - ( were not
forthcoming:
The Associated Press 60-stock
average was up .2 of a point at
50.7 Transfers totalled ; 560,400
shares compared with 591,490 the
day before.
Issues at best levels for 1943
included American Distilling, Al
lied Mills and senior stocks of El
lictric Power & Light, Common
wealth & Southern and Standard
Gas.

has won another victory over the
followers of Venus in this theater
of war.
When romantic, willow-bower-ed
Bayou Rapides threatened to
interfere with the growth, of the
Alexandria air base, army engin
eers went to war.
Now they are busy moving the
Bayou bed one half mile south
of its old location, cutting at 3800-
foot channel to drain the area and
filling the old bed with the earth
from the new channel.
The work will give the airport
240 acres for additional apron,
runways and taxiways.
