Selling Heavy
In Most Grains
CHICAGO, May 12-;P)-Seiling
' reached heavy proportions in the
grain, market today and wheat
and rye prices dropped -to new
lows, for the past several months
before a late rally cancelled part
of the downturn. Commission
houses were active in both pits
and transactions were much larg
er than in recent sessions.'
Much of the selling appeared to
come from - grain men who had
been "long" for a considerable
time and were anxious to get out
of the market as the day f or al
lied Invasion of Europe nears.
May wheat, oats and barley
were unchanged at ceilings. Ac
' tive wheat futures closed Vi-
lower, July 11.66, active oats
were -r cent lower, July IZVt,
rye dropped -l)4 May $1.24,
and barley was off July
Stocks Suffer
Small Losses
NEW YjORK, May 12-(JPy-Stocks
- generally shifted to the
losing side in today's market and,
while most declines were in frac
tions, casualties of a point or so
were fairly well distributed.
1 Bids were withdrawn and com'
mitments trimmed here and there
as the big allied drive in Italy
brouaht the idea that all-out in
vasion of Europe might be around
the corner.
- The. Associated Press 60-stock
average was off .4 of a point at
51.5, largest slipup since April 24.
Transfers totalled 746,850 shares
compared with 618,420 Thursday.
; Comforting to bullish contin
gents was the sale of a stock ex
change membership for $53,000,
best since April, 1940.
