CHICAGO, Oct. 14 VP) Corn prices rose about a cent a bushel and wheat almost that much at times today as the grain market tried to extend its recovery fol lowing last week's broad decline. However, buying was not on a large scale due to continued uncertainty regarding the ceil ings which may be imposed on grains, and wheat later turned lower. Failure of flour business to expand and hedging of spring wheat checked the upturn of bread grain. Good demand for cash corn was offset by reports that husk ing operations are increasing. The movement of new corn will be under way in a few weeks but marketings are expected to be restricted by record demand for feed in the country and high government loan rates. Wheat closed i-i cent lower than yesterday, December $1,241, May $1,261-1; corn 1-lc higher, December 803-!c, May 851c; oats 1-lc up; soybeans urt changed to 8c lower; rye i-lic lower.

The fact that it contained 40 per cent less steel than the aver age vessel, was only one of the out of the ordinary things con nected with the 14,000 ton li quid fuel carrier. It slid down no ways at its launching yesterday. Instead a concrete gate was removed and seawater poured into its con struction basin at the San Diego Bay drydock.
