Newspaper Page TextI Twelve The Capitol Journal, Salem; Oregon Tuesday, October 21, 1941 Stocks Rally On Resistance Staged by Reds New York, Oct. 21 P) The stock market shifted to the rallying foot Jn today's session and leading rails and industrials tacked on advances of fractions to a point or so. Trans fers ran around 600,000 shares. Credit for the better performance of the list was given reports of strong Russian resistance to the nazl drive on Moscow, a slightly more optimistic view of the far eas tern situation and persistence of Inflation talk. A burst of strength in commodi ties also helped hearten speculative contingents. The comeback in staples followed Secretary of Agri culture Wickard's advocacy of price ceilings for farm products of not less than 110 per cent of parity and his comment that staples were "not too high yet." Both senior stocks of Pacific Coast company bounded to new 1041 highs, along with Consolidated Air craft. Standard Oil (NJ) and Texas cor poration swung upward as the bur eau of mines revised substantially its estimates of heavy domestic de mand for crude petroleum in Nov ember. In front In the afternoon tilt were Santa Fe, Great Northern, Pennsylvania, Atlantic Coast Line, U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Chrysler, U. S.

Grain Futures Boosted Today Chicago, Oct. 21 (U.R) Short cov ering operations inspired by news from Washington boosted grain and soybean futures sharply on the Chicago board of trade otday. Wheat rose 5 cents a bushel and rye 7 cents before the strong up ward trend was halted and a mod erate reaction took place. Wheat finished 4ft to 4 cents a bushel higher. Corn was up 1 to 1, oats 1 to 1 higher, rye up 3 to 3'i, and soybeans were to 4 higher. Wheat was little changed in out- pet dealings, a reflection of lack of trading interest. Scattered support appeared shortly after and prices advanced moderately. Later, reports that Secretary Claude R. Wickard favored ceilings on farm products at not less than 110 per cent of parity started a covering movement which lifted prices o cents a bu shel. Around top levels, profit-tak- ing developed and part of the ad vance was erased. Soybeans rallied sharply after showing losses of 2 cents a bushel in early dealings. Action of sur rounding markets prompted buying much of which was credited to shorts. Early weakness was due to selling influenced by fears of a heavier movement of soybeans. Coarse grains followed the action of wheat. Best prices were shaded because of the desire to take pro- Salem Markets Compiled from report of Sa lem dealers, for the guidance tf Capital Journal readers. (Revised dally). Not guaran teed.

Wickard Urges Price Ceilings Washington, Oct. 21 (U.R) Secre tary of Agriculture Claude R. Wick ard told the house banking commit' tee today that this country "may be starting on the same ruinous Inflation we set out upon about the same time in the last war." Urging the committee to approve the administration's price control bill, Wickard declared that while recent increases in farm prices have been "unusually rapid," they are not yet "out of line". This is so, he explained, because the levels from which these prices have risen were abnormally low. He said that In 1939 farm prices were so low that farmers' purchas ing power was only three-fourths of what it had been In 1910-1914 the parity base period. Wickard told the committee that "thus far, the parallel between World war I and World war II as far as farm prices and costs are con cerned is too close for comfort."
