We think the wisdom of continu- specific news on the market but a feeling is permeating trading circles ing to maintains side-line position is quite obvious. There has been no that oatright and straightaway inflation moves have been shelved. All commodity markets rule weak due, doubtless, to a less of faith in inflation- ̈ary measures being adopted.
Wheat: Weak cables caused liberal liquidation. There has been some technical improvement.
Cotton: In spite of considerable early liquidation, the market held steady, due to to trade buying. Later cotton was sold off in sympathy with other markets.
Silver: Opened: weak on lower London advices but later, milied slightly. December to March awitching has been the trading feature. Business Done: 3,650,000 shareR
