GRAIN TRADE SEES FAVORABLE SIGNS
 AFTER HECTIC YEAR OF LOW PRICES

livered next May high of $1.14 per bushel was reached last August but in the following months the price slipped below the dollar mark and fell to low of 73 cents last November 15. December wheat was low at 69% cents.
 Wheat In Politics
 Monetary returns from wheat production represent little more than per cent of the total farm income. But wheat has been drag ged into politics, and so constant ly presents confusing picture to the average citizen as to the whole agricultural situation.
 Government figures show that while wheat and cotton prices have fallen to about 60 per cent of the average price of 1928, the average price of all farm produce is 80 per cent of the 1928 levels.
 Farm Income
 Outside of wheat and cotton both of which have been over produced throughout the world farm income is about 84 per cent of it's 1928 figure.
 This sh wing is encouraging when 1t is realized that the average wholesale prices of other primary goods such as non-ferrous metals have fallen to 76 per cent of 1928 according to the official figures"
