By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. March 20.—Another
selling movement in United States
Government bonds brought further
sharp losses in Treasury and guaran
teed issues today.
By the end of the first hour de
clines ranged from 4-32 to 21-32 of a
point, leaving values at the lowest
levels for 1937.
Selling was again accompanied by
reports institutional holders were
lightening portfolios in preparation for
a gradual rise in money rates.
A few low-yield corporate issues slid
off with the Federals, and most specu
lative ratings were inclined to sag in
absence of support from the share list.
Declines ran from minor fractions
to around a point in obligations of
Columbia Gas A Electric, Goodyear,
Great Northern, International Paper.
McKesson & Robbins. Bethlehem
8teel, Chesapeake Corp , Baltimore Sc
Ohio, Missouri Pacific. Pacific Gas and
Pennsylvania
The relatively few issues which '
managed to work a little higher j
against the downtrend included
American & Foreign Power 5s. Alle
ghany Corp. 5r and Youngstown Sheet
l'.4s. The last-named climbed about
J points.

Prices Off $2.50 to $3 a Bale
After $10 Gain Over
February Lows.
By th« Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 20 — Additional
rallies of about $3 a bale in cotton
early this week were loet under heavy
realizing and liquidation when reac
tionary sentiment developed. Prices
declined $2.50 to $3 a bale from the
best after advances had carried the
market approximately $10 a bale
above the February lows.
A weaker technical position, fears of
a larger acreage and official concern
over the rapidity of the advance In
commodities accounted for the loss.
May contracts reacted from 14.49 to
13 90 and closed yesterday at that
figure, compared with 13.87 a week
ego.
The rise ended with cessation of
trading in March contracts on Wed
nesday. That delivery had led the
rally from a mid-February price of
12.53 to 14 87, the highest level since
June, 1930. Tightness in the spot
market and prompt stopping of all
March notices by spot interests con
tributed to firmness of the near month.
Large domestic and world consump
tion figures indicating use of cotton
in the first six months of the season
at an annual rate of about 29,000,000
bales also influenced sentiment.
Selling in other deliveries developed
when March ceased Washington ad
vices Indicating agricultural officials
were concerned over prospects for
larger cotton acreage increases, poe
siblv as much as 15 per cent above
1936, as a result of the sharp advance
in prices, seemed to bring in selling.
Quieter conditions developed in spot
cotton and cotton goods markets.
While the basis held steady on de
sirable grades, some easiness was re
ported for low-grade cotton. Less ac
tive demand for textiles reflected the
well-supplied position of buyers, re
luctance of seller* to take additional
contracts in view of prospects for
higher production costs and differ
ences of opinion between buyers and
sellers on a strike protective sales
clause.
CHICAGO GRAIN
By A»sociaied Press.
CHICAOO. March 20.— Buying that |
rallied wheat prices 2 cents a bushel j
today was attributed to fresh evidence !
of tightening world supply-and-de- j
mand conditions believed favorable !
for the United States’ free entry to t
the export market this Summer.
i
Recovering more than half of yes- 1
terday's break. May wheat rose to an
early high of S1 381«, and July went to I
$1 24',.
With Liverpool prices stronger than
expected, attention centered on a new j
and apparently official report that the j
Argentine Grain Board was alarmed j
over heavy wheat exports and might )
enforce restrictions. One estimate In- !
dlcated that by the end of April only i
31.560,000 bushels would be left for 1
export from Argentina.
Near exhaustion of Southern Hemi
sphere supplies, traders said, would
give Canada temporary dominance of
the export market before United States
Winter wheat becomes available.
Early reports from the Southwest
showed no rainfall in addition to that
received yesterday, mostly in Nebraska
and Northern Kansas. Advices con- !
tinned to emphasize need for ram ’
throughout the wheat belt from Texas
to Canada. It was pointed out that i
although Spring wheat seeding inten
tions indicated a much larger acreage
would be sown than was harvested last
year, the planted area actually would
be smaller than a year ago.
Corn prices advanced only a minor
j fraction. One commentator sug
gested that liberal movement of Ar
gentine corn to Chicago was possible
this year after the opening of lake
navigation.
Oats and rye advanced with wheat. I
Provision* showed little change.
Around midseason wheat was 14 to
2% higher, compared with yesterday'*
finish; May, 1.38'*: July, 1.24 4. And
corn was % to 1 cent up; May, 1.104;
July, 1,06 4.
