Wheat Going Up to $780," Says
Greatest Grain Gambler of Them ALI

Such q belt could be made Out OF
/ less than one-hslf OF the quantity of
wheat which IL being exported week
! " from North American ports Tor
the warning nations OF Europe.
| According TO recent reports. In spite
LOT the disturbance OF international
trade, l0,000,0O0 bushels OF wheat
have been exported weekly
]. Chester Bowen, writing In the
bulletin OF the United States bureau
OF labor statistics estimates that one
bushel OF wheat makes S4.s4 pounds
of flour, and he found from inyestisa-
ton In middle west cities that about
q pound OF -four goes into the aver
age bakers loaf OF bread.
The phrases September wheat.
or May wheat do not refer to the
| time OF harvesting or sowing. The
name OF the month merely indicates
the time when the seller Of q lot OF
wheat must deliver TO the buyer. He
has until market closing time OF the
last day OF the month In which TO
deliver the warehouse receipt Tor
wheat
This involves an explanation OF "fu.
lures and short selling"
|
actual transaction 10 put through on
an exchange. suppose In March A.
who IL q speculator and expects q
fall In wheat, sells TO B 100000 bush.
els OF May wheat, which he does not
own, at 20 cents bushel.
From this point on until the irst
OF May there will be constantly
changing market price for May wheat.
Suppose that the price rises to "
cents and that b thinks that two
cent profit Is better than the chance
OF more. He sells to c 100000 bush
els OF May wheat. Frightened by .
slight reaction. c perhaps fears o
fall He sells the same amount AZ
71h cents, losing half cent per
bushel
Those who were trading for the rise
were the "bulls" those who were
trading for the fall were the bears
In the example taken the sales OF the
bears were short sales The pur-
chases Of the bears are called "cov-
ering contracts. A bear covers
shortsale by making a purchase OF
the same amount deliverable at the
same time. II he sells at ~ cents
and covers at 20 cents, he makes two
cents bushel.

words, the very gravity OF the situa-
