Grains Retreat At Trade's End Chicago, Nov. 28 VP) Grain buying slackened today after many new peaks were scored in the opening minutes on the board of trade.

Wheat closed to lower to Vi higher, December $2.16-$2.17, corn was lower to Vi higher, December $1.30 oats were "4-1 higher, December 77, rye was to 1 cent higher, Decem ber $1.37, soybeans were 1 to IVi lower, December $2.29 $2.30, and lard was 7 cents low er to 5 cents a hundred pounds higher, December $10.32. Frost Strikes Florida Crops . Miami, Fla., Nov. 28 Old, man winter made a hurried de parture from south Florida to day, leaving extensive crop damage in his wake. . He rode in Saturday on a brisk northwest wind, sending temperatures to as low as 25 degrees in some sections. I The valuable bean crop in the Lake Okeechobee region was es pecially hard hit. The Miami Herald said the total crop loss might reach $5,000,000. Fair and warmer weather was forecast for today, with gentle to moderate winds. Warren O. Johnson, head of the federal-state frost warnings service at Lakeland, said a pre liminary report placed damage" to the Lake Okeechobee bean crop at between 75 and 90 per cent and the bean loss alone might reach $2,500,000. Some bean growers saved their crops from frost by flood ing the fields, he said. Corn, potato and sugar cane crops also suffered although It was too early to estimate dam age, Johnson reported. Citrus fruits and hardy vege tables such as onions, lettuce, escarole fend cabbage apparently escaped with minor damage.

Declines generally were held to fractions with some ranging ground a point. Not much speed was generated at any time, and total transfers ran only to around 1,100,000 shares, well under last Friday's pace. Selected issues resisted the downtrend in early dealings but most of them joined in the re treat later. Industrials bore the brunt of whatever selling pressure there was. National Steel dropped more than a point reflecting evident disappointment in some quar ters as directors ordered a 50- cent year-end extra dividend. Sharon Steel's increase in steel prices failed to stimulate demand for its stock. Depressed were such issues as Youngstown Sheet & Tube, Nickel Plate, Chesapeake & Ohio, Goodrich, General Elec tric, Magnavox, Douglas Air craft, and Schenley. Holding gains were Wool- worth, Homestake Mining, U.S. Industrial Chemical, Santa Fe, Union Pacific and Kennecott Copper. Slides Half Rail Traffic in BC Vancouver, B. C, Nov. 28 VP) Train service to eastern Can ada, both on the C.P.R. and C.N.R., was halted by a week end storm. Both lines cut by rocks in the Fraser canyon, 150 miles east of here. Railway spokesmen refuse to estimate when the slides, which roared down the mountains fol lowing torrential rains, would be cleared. Service may not be restored until tomorrow. Trailway section foreman was injured and his wife also hurt when trapped by a landslide that destroyed their home near Lear, 18 miles east of Hope, 100 miles from Vancouver. Tons of rock and mud swept down the moun tainside. In suburban West Vancouver, where flash floods swept one man to his death and caused thousands of dollars property damage, highway traffic was re stored. Canadian army engineers con structed a Bailey bridge, labor ing throughout the night, span. ning the Capilano river, where a bridge was ' washed out Satur day, isolating the suburb of 12,- 000. Earlier, thousands used an emergency ferry service to reach their work m greater Vancou ver. - New storms are brewing, but are not expected to reach the proportions of the week-end del uge. Heavy rain Is forecast for tonight. Thomas Tried on Fraud Charaes Washington, Nov. 28 (IP) The triar of Rep. J. Parnell Thomas (R., N.J.) on charges of defraud ing the government through pay roll kickbacks finally got under way today after many postpone ments. On trial with Thomas in fed eral court is his former secreta ry, Miss Helen Campbell. The 54-year-old former chair man of the house unamerican ac tivities committee was indicted a year ago just after he had won easy re-election to his seventh term In congress. The trial had been postponed several times because Thomas was ill. There also had been additional delays because his lawyer was busy on another case. Thomas appeared in court wearing a brown sharkskin suit and carrying a bulging brief case. His attorney said Thomas probably would appear as wit ness in his own defense.
