STRONG CABLES HELP WHEAT’S SMALLADVANCE Recent Trading Has Made * Market Narrow and Nervous. Bv United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 16.—Strong Liverpool cables aided an advance in wheat on the Board of Trade today. Corn also showed strength, due chiefly to the small visible supply. Oats were up a small fraction. Wheat opened % to % cent higher, corn was up % to % cent and oats were up % to V* cent. Provisions were steady. Recent maneuvering in the wheat pit has made the market narrow and nervous. Most buying has been short covering, as outside news thta would stimulate large purchases has been lacking. The visible supply is 123,696,000 bushels, the largest has been lacking. The visible supply is 123,696,000 bushels, the largest on record for thus time of year. The visible supply of corn is down to 3,313,000 bushels, most of which is stored in Chicago elevators. New corn is arriving in larger quantities and appears to be of excellent quality. The belt had rain overnight, but harvesting and shipipng were not affected. The oats market is almost stagnant. Receipts continue to run small while cash demand is light. By Times Special CHICAGO. Oct. 16.—Carlots: Wheat, 131; corn, 97; oats, 84; rye, 18.
In the Stock Market
(By Thomson Sc McKinnon) The story of the stock market was well told in a headline reading, ‘‘36 Highs, 4 Lows.” Why talk about money, high interest, solemn warnings, politics and other unpleasant subjects when you can so easily visualize the state of mind of the nation—a sentiment of unbound optimism. To result in a nationwide wave of sentiment is like trying to resist a storm. It is useless because one is as irresistible as the other. It will over-reach itself in time. That goes without saying. But until you see some sign of it, it is much better to go along in the same direction with the current. The one blunder that the individual can make at such a time is traveling with a burdensome load. The retreat when it becomes necessary can be made more gracefully and with greater safety when the load is light. Bullish and conservative at one time may sound incongruous to many but it is alright. Remember that a hundred shares now are as heavy as three hundred used to be.
