PROPOSED SCHEMES
ARE INADEQUATE

''It was natural that one OF tho
first schemes to BIO proposed should
bark back 10 the governments price
fixing activities OF the war period.
Such an cxpedient would undoubtedly
be disappointing and harmful in it's
ultimate results. IL would provide a
subsidy TO an Industrial group at the
expense OF the community at large.
II would destroy the delicate mechan.
ism by which production and demand
are brought into equilibrium and, so
long as II continued, the acreage
sown to wheat In this country could
have no normal relation TO the
worlds needs.
The government would In all prob.
abllity incur n largo loss in re.selling
the wheat II might purchase in max.
ing the guarantee effective, and the
result would be continued over pro.
duction. The guarantee OF a fair
price to the wheat growers would
tend TO stimulate the next years out.

end the farmers would probably gain

1T has been proposed also that the
government should purchase. say.
zoo. 100000 bushels of the present

until later In the season. Just what
the effect OF such action on tho price
of wheat would bo is not clear. but ~
Is safe to say that tho effect, II there

could be looked for

next year. the price might possibly
be sustained until then; but In that
case tho hold.over would come into
competition with next years crop.

Such measure could scarcely fan
