CHICAGO PRICES
FAIL To REACH
FARMERS

The Chicago Board of Trade
Is it q gamblers paradise and foe
of the farmer, or is it, as sponsors
contend, the farmers best friend?
In the tollotDing and subsequent
articles International Ne1DS SerOice
DiH explain the machinery of the
board of trade.
CHICAGO, Aug. 10 0N.SJ.
When wheat prices on the board
of trade hit the dollar mark for
the first time in many months
recently and continued to soar
before the crash, the question in
the public mind was:
"HOw much of that money
actually reaches the farmer?"
A few days later the public
heard that paper profits of one
noted grain speculator, Edward
A. Crawford, in grains and stocks,
had mounted to approximately
$25, 100000. It wanted to know
whether such huge profits were
made at the expense of the man
who tolls in the field.
A survey of the great wheat
belts by International News Serv-
ice revealed the farmer receives
considerably less than the Chi
cago prices.
Farmers Not Worried
But just now, the survey also
disclosed, few wheat farmers are
worrying much about the de-
ranged wheat market, the fluctua-
tionS, and other items that worry
farmers holding large volumes of
grain.
Most of them disposed of their
crop late in June or early in July
when prices were most favorable
and before the big reaction set in
that witnessed the downfall Of
Crawford.
F.. K. Reed, of the Kansas
board of Agriculture, said there
was heavy dumping of wheat at
harvest time this year because the
farmers needed ready cash and
the price seemed right. The
weather and insects combined to
reduce this years wheat yield to
one-half the normal volume, so
the farmer had no difficulty dis
posing of his grain.
Little Left ON Farms
What little wheat still is un-
marketed is being held for higher
prices which most farmers be-
ieve are certain, now that the
voluntary allotment plan is 60
ing into effect.
With grain at a premium be-
cause of the poor crop, the diff
ference between Chicago prices
and the price paid the farmer
this year was not so noticeable
as it has sometimes been. On
July IS, the Kansas agriculture
board reported the average price
in Kansas was 80 cents a buShel,
while in Chicago wheat was
quoted at $108 to Sill.

PREDICTS FAST
FLYING TIME

PARIS, July 25. {U.Pj-That air
planes, capablc OF STEADY flight at
400 kilometers an hour, will link
Paris and Berlin in two hours on a
daily schedule within the next two
years, is the prediction Of Pierre
Cot, France S air minister.
Nothing now stands in the way
of air progress but lack of fore
sight and enterprise by flyers and
those who back them, he said.
The problem Of safety, NJ. Cot
thinks, sis practically solved. -
The multiple motor power, which
allows a ship to proceed when one,
and sometimes two, propellers are
dead. coupled with the increasing
severity in admission tests for
pilots, are the principal safeguard
of the passenger.
AS for fog dangers, he declared,
they have been almost completely
eliminated by the perfection Of the
radio signal system. The Paris
Berlin line, which is particularly
subject to fog, he said, has proved
the radio system is 100 per cent
effective.

for the financial Setup in the Dis

Previously it was thought the

that it has been decided to be
best to keep the proposal secret
until the stockholders meet to
