Markets and Financial News Inch Slightly Up Termination of May Contracts Leaves Market With Little Life By WILLIAM FERRIS CHICAGO, May 23 (P)-Grains inched upward on the board of trade today in an extremely quiet market. Grains of small fractions predomihated in all- pits, but nowhere was there anything which resembled aggressive buying. Ending of dealings in May contracts Saturday left the market without much life. It was felt quite a open contracts were still outstanding in May wheat, all of which must be settled by delivery of the ac actual grain. With trading continuing light wheat near the end of the first hour was to cents higher, July corn was to higher, July and oats were lower to higher, July Soybeans were unchanged to a cent higher, July, $2.24.

Traders that as much as 500,000 bushels of May wheat may still have been outstanding as Saturday's final gong. This morning 695,000 bushels were delivered on May contracts. Grain men expected fairly large quantities of wheat would have to be moved into Chicago to satisfy these open contracts. Foreign Exchange NEW YORK. May 23.

Sanitarians from the LansingIngham county health departments are seeking the source of raw sewage draining into a road IS ditch on the west side of Rosemary south of W. Michigan and which it is claimed is creating a health menace. In reporting the hazard, Dr. Roelof Lanting, health department medical director, said the entire area between Rosemary and Grace extending three blocks south of Michigan has been posted as a nuisance. Property owners whose sewers.

basement drains or septic tanks may be contributing to the objectionable condition are warned to connect with the public sewer within 30 days. If offenders fail to comply at the end of this period he warned the department, in conjunction with the county road commission, will fill the drain, causing sewage to back up into offenders' homes. The director pointed out that this marks the sixth suburban area to be posted this spring, but he added there will be at least seven or eight additional areas posted within the next 60 days. He urged residents needing corrections in their sewage systems to plan to connect to public sewers now available in the township. Housewife Found Overcome by Gas Mrs.

The husband told them that when he left home Monday morning his wife was still in bed. Detectives said he told them he went to work at the Oldsmobile where he's been employed 15 years.

HORGAN NEW YORK, May 23 (P) Steel stocks dropped to for 1949 in generally mardepressed" ket today.

Losses ranged from fractions to more than 8 point with only a handful of shares showing any resistance to the main trend. The market developed downward tendencies immediately after the opening of trade. The movement gathered momentum despite one or two feeble efforts at a comeback. Turnover expanded a bit as the price curve dipped. Wall Street sources found nothing in the immediate news to account for the latest setback and observers suggested it was nothing more than a revival of the pronounced caution which has kept the market in a narrow price range for so long.

Selling was never aggressive but demand was lukewarm at best. New lows for the year were touched by U. S. Steel (old), Bethlehem Steel, Youngstown Sheet Tube, Chrysler, American Telephone (at a 6-year low), Santa Fe and Westinghouse Electric. Others included Republic Steel, General Motors, Studebaker, Montgomery Ward, J.

I. Case, Public Service Electric, Commonwealth Southern, Anaconda, Phelps Dodge, General Electric, Allied Chemical, J. C. Penney, International Paper, Southern Railway, Illinois Central, Nickel Plate, and' Gulf Oil. Among the steadier spots were Goodyear, Woolworth, Boeing, Schenley, Consolidated Natural Gas, American Woolen, U.

S. Gypsum, and Great Northern preferred. Corporate bonds moved narrowly. U. S.

governments held steady in over-the-counter dealings. Lower in the curb were Humble Oil, New Mexico Arizona Land, Northrop Aircraft, United Gas, Consolidated Mining, Cities Service, Barium Steel, Arkansas Natural Gas and International Utilities. Gray Rotary Electric Steel, Electric Bond Share, and California Electric Power improved.
