Gambling and ManipuIa-
ton Under Investigation
by Senator Frazier.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. - An
effort to determine the extent To
which gambling and manipulation
have influenced grain prices was
proposed today by Senator Lynn J.
Frazier (Rep., N. d., in a reSolu-
ton prepared for introduction in
the senate.
The movement will be connected
with the administrations desire for
federal regulation of the nation S
commodity exchanges. Frazier would
make an investigation of these eX-
changes as a parallel to the in
quiry which the senate banking
committee has conducted into stock
market practices.
Cooperation Is Asked
Under his proposed resolution the
senate agriculture committee would
investigate the effect of exchange
operations on the cost of agricul-
tural commodities to producers and
consumers. information also would
be sought on market price 1ucCua-
tions resulting from gambling and
manipulation upon such exchanges. .
Chairman Ellison D. Smith Of the
senate agriculture committee has
announced his intention to call
grain exchange officials to Wash
ington for a discussion of exchange
practices in connection with the
proposed legislation for commodity
exchange regulation.
Smiths idea is that any needed
reforms can be achieved better by
cooperative action by the ex-
changes rather than by legislation.
THE American producer is en-
titled to know" Frazier said in ex-
PLANTATION of his resolution, why
he can not receive an income on
parity with that he received be-
fore the war. That is the purpose
of remedial legislation which con-
gress has enacted.
'Is the farmer left helpless while
gamblers on the grain exchanges
beat down the price of his product
so that government relief has no
real effect? The investigation I am
proposing will reveal the truth
about grain gamblers and their
control of farm prices"
Quick Approve! Is Belief
Frazier said that price 1uctu-
ations in wheat on the Chicago
Board of Trade amounted to from
so to so cents a bushel in the last
year. The government processing
tax amounted to 80 cents a bushel.
'As a result" Frazier said, wheat
spectators have been able to elimi-
nate all benefits of the tax to wheat
farmers"
Frazier believes the senate will
adopt his resolution. 1t can be pre-

If there is no opposition to the
resolution from the Democratic
leadership, Frazier sees quick ap-
proval for his plan.
