BODY BLOW TO SPECULATION
Saeh is the Supreme Court Decision
on Grain Elevation.
so MANY GRAIN MEN AGREE
Under New Rule Grain Can't BE

mite Period and Get
Allowance.

Omaha grain and railroad men are all
AZ sea as to what effect the recent de-
cision Of the United states supreme
court relative to grain elevation charges
win have upon this and other markets,
However, they all agree that Is a
body blow to specializing in futures and
will result in grain selling for what II
Is worth.
The supreme court holds that after
April IS, elevation charges cannot De

mains In storage longer than ten days.
For a long time railroads hauling gram
have allowed elevation" Of three-fourths
Of cent per 100 pounds or around :

cars at terminal markets. This went
toward paying the cost OF handing the
grain. This charge. or rebate was paio
at any time within a year. providing
the grain moved out OF the elevator
within that time Stnl. it applied to
only the leading grain markets, such
as Omaha, Chicago. Kansas Cty~7siapp-
neapolis and ST. Louis. Permitting the
grain to remain in storage for Whoie
year II desired. permitted speculation at
any period during that time. The spec
uiator, regardless OF the actual market
conditions, could buy or sell futures
for the grain was In storage at any
time and could be shipped out on a
days notice, the owner then receiving
his rebate. or elevation charge as II
was termed.
Grain dealers throughout the country
districts in all of the western states
filed complaints and the case went to the

cleaned. blended and then sent on to the
consuming mills or to foreign countries
The grain men have asked for a rehear-
ing, but there are many OF them who DO
not believe their appeal has any merit
They admit that there is no logical rea-
son why grain bought today should be
held for ten months or year. and yet
receive the elevation allowance, especially
when country dealers are not granted the
same privileges.
Dealers say that reducing the time
when grain may remain in elevators at
the great markets will have tendency

creating of and maintaining Of corners"
and they also say that IL the rehearing Is
denied. IL will result in grain being dealt
In on its merits.

will have any advantage over another
