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. Rubber, Douglas Aircraft, Boe
ing, Western Union, Anaconda, du
Pont, Allied Chemical, Eastman Ko
dak and U. S. Gypsum.
Bonds steadied with rails regain
ing some of their popularity.
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-

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."
