Will Cease.

ST. Louis, April Accommodating on
the tremendous price smashing that
took place on the Chicago board Of
trade, julius II. Barnes, federal wheat
director ard president of the grain
corporation Of the food administration,
in statement, said the government
viii discontinue, until further an
nOuncement, export purchases OF
wheat as a preventive of speculative
boarding.
Mr.. Barnes, who arrived to attend
the United States Chamber of Com
merce convention, declined to discuss
the corn situation, saying that branch
of the administration was not under
his jurisdiction.
In his statements he said:
The steady advance in the market
price of flour is not justified by any
scarcity, actual or impending, as re.
serves have been carefully preserved
for the demands of the country.
The mills are grinding 10000
bushels of flour weekly, while our do
nestle consumption does not exceed
100000 bushels. 1t is therefore a
simple problem, to offset any specula-
tive boarding of -four, to discontinue
export purchases.
