CHICAGO, April 25-(ff)-A strong wheat market . which pushed upward to the highest level in the past ten days aided other grains today. Buying of the small wheat of ferings was attributed to mills and southwestern interests. Shorts also covered on the upturn which saw the July contract at a peak during the past 10 days. Short covering in rye and re ported buying of the December contract by a local trader sent that grain! up with wheat. Oats which had been under pressure early on reports the office of price administration was consid ering lowering the ceiling prices seven to eight cents was rescued by the strength of wheat and rye and finished firm to strong. . At the close, wheat was un changed to 1 higher, July $1.70. Oats were unchanged to 4 higher, July 79. Rye was up 1 to VA higher, May 11.29 $1.2914. Barley was unchanged to V higher, July $1.25. Wheat encountered little pres sure in its upward movement, While wet weather was hamper ing movement of all grains from farms, farmers were reported re deeming government loans at a fairly good rate. Seeding of spring wheat was said to be going for ward in parts of North Dakota, while raini was said to be needed in the Canadian northwest Corn offerings continued small.
