Kellogg's Bran is delicious in its

Appeal in Grain
Case interests Farmers

Chicago. Jan. 29.-Appeal has been
taken by the State of Kansas IN an
equity suit of wide spread import
ance involving the validity Of trans
actions in contracts for grain for
future delivery, according to in
formation received here today.
The appeal is from the decision of
Judge w. G. F'airchild in the Reno
county district court at Hutchinson,
Kansas on January S, that trans
actions in contracts for future de-
livery of grain under the practice OF
legitimate grain exchanges is Valld.
This includes the practice of Off
setting contracts prior to delivery
date. The Kansas statue under
which suit was brought prohibits
transactions in futures, where there
is no intent to make bOna-fide de-
livery. Judge Fairchild refused to
grant an injunction holding there
had been no law violation in the con-
duct of the offices involved.
According to John r. Mauff. secre-
tary of the Chicago Board of Trade,
widespread attempts have been
made in the last three years at
Washington and at the capitals OF
the great grain states, to place sim
liar legislation on the statute books.
"F'or several years" said Mr..
Mauff, "grain farmers all over the
country have been insistcntly tod
by those who would exploit them,
that trading in futures was Gambl-
ing, pure and simple, and the farmer
was robbed in consequence. The re-
suit of the appeal from Judge
Fairchild's decision will be watched
with intense interest by farmers,
grain dealers and politicians
The defendants in tho suit at
Hutchinson were tho J. Roscnbaum
Grain Company of Chicago. and four
other grain companies with private
wires into branches in Kansas. The
suit sought to Gust the private wires
from the state.
Several state witnesses testified
that they had made transactions in
grain futures through TIE grain COM
panies and that these deals were
closed by. offsets prior to delivery
date. Cross examination by counsel
for the q ,ndants. elected that all
of these transactions. had they not
been closed previously, would have
resulted in the delivery of actual
grain. In each case it was establish
ed. where May wheat Tor instance,
had been purchased. it was offset
by q counter sale prior to May list,
the delivery date.
The court stated that these
transactions closed by set-off or
through the clearing house did not
evidence an intent to settle on diff
ferences within the meaning of the
Kansas statute. The original pur-
chase was the purchase of a contract
for delivery of wheat May 1st. The
sale prior to that date was of this
contract. 1t was legitimate tran
saction, according to Judge Fairchild.
Judge Fairchild in denying to grant
an injunction, reserved decision as
to whether his court had jurisdic-
ton to hear the case. Attorneys for
the grain companies argued the
hearing should be before federal
court because of the interstate
nature of the transactions.
