All mills, dealers and elevators in pur-
chasing wheat from the producer, shall
buy on the basis of the federal stand
ards, using their best and honest judg-
ment. In the event of a difference of
opinion as to the grade, sample of
wheat shall at once be drawn in the |
presence of both buyer and seller, Ell /
closed in proper container, and sent
to the zone manager for desision as to
proper grade. Notice of the method
for this appeal will be posted in all
mills and elevators buying from the
producers, with instructions how to
proceed A further appeal Is allowed
finally to the wheat director.
REIMBURSEMENT of Gulf Prices.
In New Orleans and Galveston the
guaranteen price basis will be advanced
from $22s to $3.50 The railroad ad
ADMINISTRATION advise they will put in a
SO cent blanket maximum rate from
the important grain producing sections
of the intermountain territory to the
Gulf. The governing consideration i'll
making this adjustment Is that it was
demonstrated that the former buying
price did not, of itself. attract sufficient
flow of wheat to the Gulf ports to serve
the commercial requirements Of the
grain corporation in the conduct of its
export trade 1t is, now calculated that
the new price will probably attract to
the Gulf sufficient flow Of wheat for the
proper conduct of the marketing opera
tions of the grain corporation without
the necessity of furnishing that wheat
flow to the Gulf at higher expense from
other markets and with increased bur
den on transportation thereby. The
forecast Of probable export service to
he rendered by all the ports of the
United States totals such large guam
titles that 1t Is necessary to call on the
Gulf ports for larger measure of ser
vice than before so that it is addition
ally necessary to construct their price
for d flow calculated to serve this larg-
or proportion of the total export trade.
Elimination of lntermOuntain
Absorption.
! In view of the doubt of our authority
to continue to absorb on a theoretical
two dollar minimum at intermountain
points, we shall retire altogether from
, that absorption The new basis provid
es a net minimum of S1.964 at inter.
, mountain points included in the new
/ rail rate and since the literal enforce
, ment of the guarantee would only make

/ points of Salt Lake City Pocatello and
Great Falls, and with this new Gull

? or would he obliged to deliver thi,
A wheat at these named points at $500
f the result is that the grower is gettins
3 better net return than under the lit
i eral application of the guarantee al
I formerly construed.
