Gates. Defends
Future Dealings
On Grain Market
Former Board of Trade Presi.
dent Says Enactment of Cap.
per.Tincher Bill Would
Paralyze Machinery. /

Washington, Jan. 13.-Leslie F
Gates, former president of the Chi
cago board of trade, today told the
house agriculture committee that
enactment of the Capper- Tincher
grain futures bill would "paralyze
the present grain marketing ma
chinery, without providing All ade-
quate substitute
"Such legislation declared Mr..
Gates, would simply make perma-
nent, the same sort of abnormal
market that brought on the drafting
of the bill"
In presenting the arguments OF
the exchanges, Mr.. Gates asserted
that the futures market provides a
constant market in peace or war,
in prosperity or panic, where pro-
ducer may dispose of his products
for prices based on world supply
and demand. Futures trading stabil-
ICES values, reduces the toll between
producer and consumer, facilitates
distribution and prevents monopoly"
Short Selling Necessary.
A satisfactory futures market,
where grain insurance may be OBJ
tanned, cannot be had without specu-
lation, Mr.. Gates continued. for such
market would be too narrow. to
accept offerings at all times.
"It is the speculative class" he
added, who ate ready buyers and
sellers and thus ruake a constant
market. Short selling which has
been criticised, is necessity in a
healthy futures. market. The short
seller act for the, consumer, just as
long buyer acts for the producer"
Mr.. Gates said, 1T was ridiculous
to blame the futures market for price
declines, adding that there were no
futures markets in wool, hides, cop
per, rubber, potatoes and silk, yet
price slunps were far greater pro-
portionately.
Fancied Manipulation.
1T was not so long ago." he con-
tinued, "that the futures market was
blamed by consumers for high
prices. The farmers did not COM
plain then. Germany abolished fu-
lures trading in grain for period Of
four years. A serious situation re-
suited and the futures market was
re-established at the request of those
who had favored its abolition.
"You har much talk of manipula-
ton. 1t is mostly farcied manipula-
ton. History shows that even in
the old days every attempted corner
was a failure" j.
Mr.. Gates reviewed the history of
the board of trade from its organiza-
ton, more than 20 years ago.
"We want every possible improve
ment that improves" he concluded,
"but we want something that is truly
constructive rather than destruc-
tive"
