price is expected to decline still more
following the big drop in quotations
in the exchanges.
According to the view of officials
OF the Department of Agriculture
there is little hope that foreign buy
ers will increase their purchases of
American wheat during the next few
months. Europe hasn't the money to
buy heavily, they explain.
American farmers, according to
this view and the theory that prices
abroad fix domestic prices, are in for
a bad year as far as wheat is con-
cerned.
Among some the experts in private
life, however, some hold the view
that the situation is not governed
largely by the quantity of exports.
The outlook is not particularly prom
Using. they admit. but they disparage
the pessimistic note of the official
statements.

announcement Of the Department of

Farmers contend that the lack of

low price of the grain in the United

than 95 cents bushel was being
