Chicago, October 15 (AP) Fresh upturns in grain prices, despite active nrof it-taking went hand in-hand today with renewed attention to the wp.r-like strain between Chim and Japan. Indications were that the Orient had been a good purchaser of wheat on the Pacific Coast, and it was announced that China had bought three cargoes today in Canada. Liverpool advices said the maximum pressure of wheat supplies had now probably been experienced, and that more than half of the world's wheat requirements were still to be obtained from North America. Wheat closed irregular, cent off to up, corn unchanged to cent higher, oats at to as cent decline and provisions unchanged to 5 cents advance. At the start, the wheat market was ever, was later more than counter balanced by wo.d of a sharp decrease in Argentine wheat exports.

Meanwhile, bullish aspects of the China-Japan conflict acquired special interest again, heightened by suggestions that transpacific demand rot-wheat had broadened out. Comparative strength shown by securities today was also an aid to wheat price advances, which at one stage amounted in some cases to fully a cent a bushel. North American wheat export business continued to be largely in Canadian wheat, with only a slow call for wheat from the United States. Domestic milling trade, though, was more active. Weather conditions in the Southwest remained chiefly d.y, and the failure of rains to bring relief was causing anxiety relative to likelihood of material curtailment of domestic winter crop seeding.

Reports indicating general rains in Texas came too late to be much of of corn to Canada during the last week. Oats were inclined to lag in the absence of any special demand. Covering by shorts was a feature of the provision market. Chicago. October 15 (AP) Closing 14, )93i.

Bitter Fight, Thus Apparently End ed, Waged In Steel Industry For Months. Younzstown. Ohio. October 15 4P-The bitterly-fought billibn-dol lar merger of the Youngstown Sheet Tube Co.

with the Bethlehem Steel Corporation wasv abandoned today with an announcement from Eugene Grace, President of Bethlehem, that the merger contract has been can celled. Mr. Grace, in New York, said, due to changed conditions, it was deemed impracticable to carry out the con tract made in March, 1930, for merging the two companies and that Beth lehem had exercised its option to cancel the contract. The contract, Mr. Grace said, had been extended from time to time by agreement of the parties in the hope that conditions would justify con summation of what both believed to be a sound undertaking.

The immediate effect puts an end to the protracted legal battle between many of the most powerful figures in the steel Industry, and makes avail able at once $1,700,000 in back divi dends which have been withheld from Sheet Tube stockholders who dissentea the combine. Shortly after the cancellation was announced, officials of Sheet Tube issued a statement which said the merger plan "was and still would be constructive for both companies." Deferred Dividends Payable. Concerning the deferred dividends, the Sheet Tube officials said the entire sum had been set aside, and was on hand in cash "for immediate disbursement as soon as the dissenting stockholders can establish their rights to receive the same." The cancelled merger contract pro vided for Bethlehem to exchange four shares of its stock for three shares of Sheet Tube. Stockholders in the latter company who refused to accept Bethlehem stock were offered $110 cash for each share of Sheet Tube instead. There were approximately 300,000 shares of such "dissenting stock." To their owners, the failure of the merger means the collapse of hopes that they might received the $110 cash for their shares, which at stock market prices would be worth less than $30 a share.

The battle of the merger started shortly after the contract was made, and was still in progress when the contract was cancelled. It had been one of the most spectacular Court battles in American industrial history and had cost the principal antagon ists more than, a million dollars in Court expenses alone. Opposition to the merger was led by Cyrus S. Eaton. Cleveland financier, who was then known as one of the most powerful and resourceful figures in the world of finance and steel.

Eaton nad his allies were a minority in Sheet Tube, but claimed they had sufficient votes to prevent the merger. Against the Eaton group was arrayed President Grace, of Bethlehem; James A. Campbell, Chairman of Sheet Tube; Frank Purnell, its President; Henry G. Dalton, who was a Director in both companies, and numerous other men. Eaton Wins Court Fight.

When the merger election was held, Sheet Tube officials declared a majority had approved the combine, but Eaton won the long Court fight when Judge David Jenkins enjoined the transaction. An appeal from the injunction was never decided. Tho issues in the trial Involved three questions: whether Bethlehem's stock offer was fair to Sheet Tube; whether the merger contract was legally ratified, and whether the proxies voted for it were valid. Testimony at the trial exposed many secrets of both companies, including Bethlehem's bonus payments. It was shown that Grace in 1929 received $1,623,753 as a bonus, although his salary was only $12,000.

Both sides of the fight spent mil lions of dollars in a race for proxies before the election. Eaton bought $8,000,000 worth of stock in one stroke. Prices as high as $160 a share were paid. The trial, in addi tion to entailing other large sums, cost the lives of two men. Leroy Manchester, 47, general counsel for Sheet and Tube, committeed suicide and Myron C.

Wick 35, one of Eaton's associates, died of pneumonia induced from strain. Although the cancellation of the contractwas a technical victory for the merger opponents, it was a hol low one. Eaton has lost most of his financial power, and the other dissenting stockholders lost their chance to obtain the $110 for their shares, several times more than its present quoted worth. And now Sheet Tube is back to the same status it was before the merger talk started, and all merger talk is in abeyance. Mr.

Grace's announcement of the cancellation of the contract was made In a formal statement issued at his New York office during his absence. It was said that he was out of town and Would not return today. It was pointed out in some quarters that the announcement left open the question of whether cancellation of the contract meant that all effort to merge the two companies had been abandoned, or whether renewed efforts would be made to seek a merger on a new basis. Because of Mr. Grace's absence no comment on this point was available at the Bethlehem offices.

That the war dphts Khmilrl greatly reduced or canceled because they cannot and will not be paid, was aeciarea yesterday Dy colonel William CoODfr Procter. Chairman nf the Board of the Procter Gamble Company. Colonel Procter anlrl that tho sooner this situation is accepted tne Detter it will be for the whole world. He Said also that ns far na the domestic situation la rnnr mirl. conditions seem favorable for recov ery as soon as the "panic psychology" which has prevailed for the past month or two is corrected.

"Closely related to the problem of war debts is that 0 ftrade restriction. France and the United States are the great creditor nations of the world. As creditor nation, they should be willing, and In the end must, accept payment of principal and Interest from their debtors In the form of commodities. Instead, they kept their debtors from doing so by maintaining the highest tariffs In the world, and by so doing have drained their debtor nations of their gold supply. The debtor nations have stood ready to discharge their debts to the extent of exhausting themselves of their gold reserves.

France and the United States, I think, have a large responsibility for the existing economic depression of thi world, with all Its attendant Industrial and social conditions. Whatever may have been said In the past concerning the advantages to us of a high tariff, lt Is certainly true that the tariff now is a handicap to us and to the entire world. "Our workmen In this country would also be greatly benefited If tariff reduction could be brought about. The tariffs Imposed by the various nations have reduced foreign buying power and therefore operate toward reduction of employment and of wages In this country and throughout the world. The level of wages In our own country has been comparatively high, not because of the tariff but tn spite of it.

Labor would undoubtedly be more fully employed at better wages If the obstacles now hampering International trade were removed. AH trade, domestoc or foreign, Is merely a proceas of exchanging the products of one group of laborers for those of another group. Each -roup gains when Its labor can be exchanged for the uuantity of otheV labor or Its products." WEATHER CONDITIONS.
