C. 0. P. ACTION
TO BOOST GRAIN
PRICE IS FLOP
Removal Of Regulation on
Trading Followed by
Record Slump.

By ScYipps-Hopord Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28--T'he adj
n1inistrations latest effort to boost
wheat prices by modifying rules of
the grain futures administration has
been met with the lowest prices in
four centuries.
This effort, launched by Agricul-
ture Secretary Arthur M. Hyde, was
the suspension Of the rule of the
grain futures administration re-
curing Individual traders in wheat
to report to the government on
trades involving more than 100000
bushels.
This was done, Hyde said, in re-
Spouse to appeals of grain traders,
and in the hope that it would
Finally result in better prices to the
farmers"
But records in Hyde's own depart
ment here indicate that suspension
of this rule does not result-in higher
prices.
Plan Doesn't Work
This was proved in an investiga-
ton ordered by the senate after the
only other time the rule was sus-
pended, back in 1927.
The present suspension, an
nounced Saturday, went into effect
Monday, and Thursday in some
Kansas towns wheat was reported
selling at 20 cents bushel.
In June, according to the depart
ment Of agriculture, the average
price was 37.3 cents; in July. 35.7
cents; and in August, 3S.5 cents.
Grain experts in Chicago attribute
the present slump to a combination
OF causes, including withdrawal of
the price peg by Canada, and a
rush for export trade.
Reports Are Stopped
One of the chief purposes of the
grain futures administration is to
prevent manipulation of the wheat
market, and it utilizes reports on
trading to determine whether
manipulation is going on. II will
not now have these reports.
The Chicago board of trade. ac-
cording to reports from there, is
having its members make reports TO
II on trades in excess of 500 0OO
bushels, but this, it is said. does not
serve the same purpose as reports
olrect TO the government.
