Near the end of the' first hour wheat was 1-1 Vi cents lower, July corn was unchanged to one cent lower, July and oats were lower, July After the market closed Saturday, the Commodity Credit corporation lowered its buying price for new wheat.

The statement goes on: If the pub- goods. Certainly, they could move only part of them.
