Strike effect 15 nil in Cedar Rapids markets
Cedar Rapids markets Monday showed no effect of the farm strike called by the National Holiday association. Hog receipts were light at Cedar Rapids and Chicago, fairly heavy at Buffalo and other eastern points, with light western receipts due to slack demand. Packers hesitated to buy beyond dairy slaughters because of a 50 cent floor tax on stocks on hand Nov 5. Milk and grain receipts remained normal. The holiday program's strength in Cedar Rapids has not yet been tested, with a holiday meeting planned for Tuesday evening at Marion.
