CONFERENCE HELD
ON WHEAT TRADING
Chicago Board of Trade Men
Meet Hyde and Lamont
on Soviet Dumping.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The whole question of dealing in
grain futures was discussed at a con-
ference here today between Secretaries
Hyde and Lamont, Chairman Legge of
the Farm Board and three members of
the Chicago Board of Trade.
Silas H. Strawn, counsel for the
Chicago board, said after the confer
ence that the board entertained a
friendly and sympathetic consideration
for the Government in its efforts in
dealing with the alleged short selling
of wheat by agencies of the Soviet gov
eminent.
There is not the slightest hostility
between the board and the Govern
ment," Mr.. Strawn added.
He would not go into details regard
ing the conference. Answering ques-
tons put by newspapermen, he said it
was his personal opinion that the SELL
ing of 100000 bushels of wheat would
not depress prices. This is the amount
mentioned by Secretary Hyde as having
been sold short on behalf of the Rus
sian government in his charges that
attempts to depresS prices apparently
were involved.
Trade Board Group.
Besides Mr.. Strawn, those from Chi
cago who attended the conference were
James Norris, vice president of the
board, and Peter p. Carey and Siebel
G. Harris. members of the board.
The committeeman said they intend
ed to return to Chicago Immediately.
Secretary Hyde said the Chicago
board members expressed every desire
to cooperate with the Government in
making the kind of trading complained
of impossible.
We have left it with them" he
added. I'VE are not asking them to do
anything but clean their own house"
The Secretary said he did not know.
what form of relief would be proposed
and added that was the Chicago boards
responsibility.
Traditional Attitude.
Regarding contentious that short
sales amounting to 1900 900 bushels
are not sufficient to force prices down,
Mr.. Hyde said that was the traditional
attitude" of grain exchanges.
If ! went on the market and sold
that much" he said, they would say
I was through. but when a government.
with resources permitting them to stay
In, has the power to squeeze 1t out of
hundred and fifty million people, that
is another matter" The Agriculture
Secretary said his position has been
that the Russian short selling has been
a contributing and not the full infiu-
ence in the price declines.

Enthusiasm

Last year there was too
much enthusiasm in bust
ness and overproduction of
goods.
This year there has been
too little enthusiasm, pro-

prices of goods have
dropped to new low levels.
AS soon as stocks on
hand get too low, prices
will stiffen.
Now is a good time to
