The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-10-28

Selling orders accumulated over
night, but were met with orders
from buyers encouraged by strength
in stocks and news from Liverpool
that little cash wheat was being
offered.
AT the opening, wheat was 4 cent
lower to 4 cent higher. Corn and
oats each were * cent higher.
When news came that the price at
Winnipeg had dropped Il cent
buShel, Chicago traders turned to
the selling side and prices here
dropped to Is to z cent under the
previous close. Corn and rye also
went down fractionally.
Farmers Face Ruin
The pressure of the huge grain
surplus-fruit of postwar overpro-
duction over period of years
brought suffering and prospective
bankruptcy to many farmers in the
western grain belt of the United
States and Canada.
In iowa bushel of old corn could
be bought for less than package
OF chewing gum. AT the price of
4 cents bushel, it was marketed
where there was market-for $1.40'
ton. Coal sold in the same
towns at 81 ton and consequently
huge quantities of corn are ex-
pected to be burned in winter stoves
Of farm homes.
In the, northwest states many
farmers were unable 10 find any one
who would even bid on their wheat,
despite prices so low they faced
ruin.
Upset by Pound Break
Causes underlying the present
precipitate break in world wheat
prices are explained as largely due
to Canada'S fierce desire to rid her
self of an enormous surplus by SELL
ing wheat in the world market
cheaper than any other nation.
The Canadian government had
pegged December wheat at so cents
q buShel, quotation which made
this grain the cheapest that could
be bought.
The sudden tumble of the British
pound, however, upset this plan.
The Canadian dollar rose against
the pound to a premium of about
20 per cent. In contrast the Argen-
tine peso held at a discount of about
80 per cent and the Australian
pound at 20 per cent discount in
England.
Little Hope Is Held
This >huctuation buoyed the
pegged Canadian wheat prices too
high to meet expected competition
from the southern hemisphere crop.
When this became apparent sup
port OF 50-cent wheat was with
drawn and the price was allowed to
SINK to export levels again. United
States quotations dropped in SYM
pathy with the Canadian fall and
also due to a determination of ex-
porters to put United States grain
IN the world market on a COMPETE
tive price basis.
Grain experts could hold little
hope of materially better grain
prices until by some means the
enormous annuali carryover of crops
mas been eliminated. The surplus,
lhey pointed out, was particularly
depressing at a time when all ma
lions are under severe economic
strain and unable in many cases
70 mo money to purchase even the
normal requirements.
