WHEAT FOR DELIVERY IN JULY TUMBLES TO LOWEST IN 27 YEARS Reports of Cheaper Canadian Wheat Cause General Grain Price Drops Chicago, Dec. tumbled late today to the bottommost price which the July delivery has reached since 1903. That delivery went below 70 cents a bushel, to corncared with the record established in March 27 years ago. Breaks in wheat values here, and of other grains as well, were associated with reports of cheaper offerings of Canadian wheat abroad and with downturns in the stock market and in commodities, especially cotton.

Corn closed 1 to 14 cents off (December old to 70; May new Cats closed IN to 14 cents down, and provisions unchanged to 10 cents decline. A fall of 14c a bushel quickly took place in July wheat values today carrying the market down to 70Nc for that delivery. The drop was in the face of reports wet harvest weather in Argentina. Heavy rains were noted over the entire provinces of Pampas and Cordoba, as weil as southern Santa Pe. with moderate downpours and hail in various cthei sections.

On the other hand, advices were received that wheat acreage in Prussia has been increased 6.6 per cent. Sellers oi coni took their cue from the action of securities. And put stress on this as indicative of the business outlook as affecting consumption and speculation. Some buying of corn on declines was associated with Nebraska advices that the country had ceased offering corn and that loadings were largely against earlier sales. Industrial users of corn were also reported as getting restless.

Unnerved by fresh breaks in some of the commodities, the stock market, which has lately been undermining its bottom levels of the year, took a decisive plunge, today. U. s.

Steel, American Telephone, and other prominent issues broke through recent resistance points. Numerous losses ranged from 1 to 4 points, with a few wider and the list as a whole reached a new low since 1927. The market sold off rather sharply in the first half hour, met support for a time, but sank further in the last half hour. Trading was moderately active, sales for the two-hour session aggregating 1.950,000 shares. U.

S. Steel touched a new minimum at and dosed at 136 4, off American can dropped 4 to 107, also a new minimum. American Telephone touched 1784, a fresh bottom, and closed at off about 2. North American lost but held well above its 1930 minimum. Stand of New Jersey lost a point but held a shade above the low.

Transamerica dropped 14 to a record low at 104. Shares losing 2 to 3 points included Dupont, General Electric. Union Carbide, Woolworth. Sears. Consolidated Gas, American Water Works American and Foreign Power, and Eastman.

Allied Chemical lost 4. A further drop in cotton futures, reaching the lowest since 1915. was in response to the census November consumption report. The wheat market opened quiet and steady, but selling developed, in response to heaviness in Lovcrpool and Winnipeg, and in sympathy with cotton and stocks. Strong support apeared for near months, but July reached a new low for the season.

In the petroleum industry the news of an increase in gasoline prices by Standard of California, ranging from 14 to 3 cents a gallon, was welcome. ILL Til A Xii Duluth, bee.

Domestic wheat prices showed independent strength, during the week ending Friday, despite general weakness and further decline in oilier world markets. Active buying support of old-crop wheat futures by stabilization agencies was the principal strengthening factor. The market was independently firm. Receipts of cash wheat here during the week were light to moderate, and the generally quoted premium range was easy to 1 cent down. No.

1 dark northern wheat at the close was quoted withtri a range of 4 to 8 cents over the December December advanced 2 cents, closing Friday at 734 cents. Durum liebl steady, showing little price change. Selling pressure was light, but demand for futures was equally so. Rye showed a decline for the week, taking its load mainly from feed grain, receipts were somewhat larger, and cash demand was not quite so aggressive. Outs was weak to lower, taking the lead from corn.

There was little cash demand, as shipping interest was light, with generally poor buying inquiry. Barley was adversely affecled by tbe decline in corn. Cash prices were weaker, but did not decline quite so much as the option. Flax declined, being Influenced by lower Argentine prices and weakness in the securities market. FINANCIAL REVIEW New York, Dec.

was the rule in security and commodity prices this week. The wheat market alone showed any stability, and its firmness appeared due in large measure to farm board support. Stocks, bonds, cotton, corn, silver and copper all declined. Stocks, sold in the largest volume since nild-Navember. slowly made their way into new low grounds for the means new 1 own since 1 927.

A large number of issues, especially rails, broke through their old niinimunis, although the market at no time became alarmingly wciik. Short selling increased when professional traders sensed an unfavorable, turn in sentiment, and the dominant trend also influenced further liquidation. In addition, sales fot the establishment of income tax losses swelled the volume of offerings. in the bond market were governed chiefly by bank activity. After buying bonds steadily throughout file first nine months of the year, bonds have recently become sellers.

it also seemed evident the decline which In the opinion of investment bankers had 'nothing to "do with (lie merits of the bonds sold, prompted nervous private investors to sell needlessly and at some sacrifice. Although the usual army of hunters did not hesitate to pick up investment olijiaa- 1 ions at what they regarded as favor- I able prices, liieir support, together i with considerable buying by insurance companies, was insufficient to arrest the decline. Tbe market, however, improved yesterday. Cotton touched the lowest levels in 15 years, with the December future breaking under 10 cents a pound. Its 1 heaviness was attributed to the weak- I tiess of stocks and to easiness In Liv- erpool.

Plic rock cf Gibraltar is composed of limestone cevpred lit shale CHICAGO WOULD NOT DESIRE RENEWAL OF FIGHT OVER MONEY BILLS Watson, Republican Leader, As- serts Group Will Stand Behind President Washington, Dec. A weekend recess served today to postpone further moves in the delicate situation between President Hoover and the senate.

Until next week also was passed the final clean-up of the administration unemployment and drought relief program, upon which the two branches of congress must get together. The possibility still existed that President Hoover might strike again at his congressional opponents somewhat as he did last Tuesday when he told the country what he thought of moves which interfere with his program. This prospect did not fail to stir uneasiness among his senate supporters. Denies A Division Senator Watson, of Indiana, the Republican leader, hastened to assert there was no real division between his group and Mr. Hoover and that he had served no ultimatum in the request Thursday that the president Help his senate aides by letting them in on plans for any such maneuvers as last attack.

There was a bare possibility that conferees of the house and senate would get together today on amendments made by the latter to the public works emergency appropriation bill. In any case action by the two houses upon the report could not be obtained before next week. Besides increasing the total to $118,000,000, the senate knocked out the clause granting power to the president to shift funds for one project to another. This change is viewed by the administration as likely to cut down actual relief and the house has disagreed with all the amendments. Drought Bill Near The drought bill, amended in committee to appropriate only $30,000,000 for loans, none of it applicable to food purchases, is to come up in the house Monday or Tuesday under the most stringent procedure the leaders can obtain.

They arc seeking to keep the $80,000,000 figure from getting tangled in the proceedings. To the billion dollar treasury-post office appropriation sent the senate last week, the representatives late yesterday added the much smaller interior department measure. It carries among other items. $15,000,000 fou some of the construction work on the Giant Colorado river power project. South Dakota Family In Hike to New York Syracuse, N.

Dec. Slater Overman came home today for his last long sleep.
