Control a Big Problem

WE can hardly expect to con-
wv troll wheat prices, however, so
long. as we desire or hope to COM
pete in the world markets with our
output. And to drop out of the
world markets is not good business
if we wish to protect the markets at
home. If we do not offer our
goods abroad some one else will,
and by permitting others to get our
regaining it when we regard the
time as opportune. If other coun-
tries build up their wheat-growing
powers to supply an existing market
they are not likely to back out
gracefully to please us.
1t would seem that this coun-
try must make up its mind one way
or another whether it wishes to con-
tinue growing wheat for export. If
it does, it might we'll take another
look at the idea of controlling
prices. And if it does not, it would
appear to be the part of wisdom to
develop some other market to offer
to farmers.
1t is possible to buy off the farm
ers in the matter of growing wheat,
or. any other crop, for that matter,
but it is a rather costly proposition.
But year or two of good wheat
crops and we either will re-enter
the world market or we will take
what we can get at home. To buy
up or control the surplus would be
almost out of the question in such
an event

Business ACtiUity Hits
Best Level Since 1882
Steel Mill Operations Rise

Steel mill operations last week

last year.
Although administration officials
refuse TO discuss the economic stu
alton publicly, they are privately
more optimistic than since the start
of the Roosevelt term Many see
further improvement ahead.
Electrical equipments were higher
on improved business and better
earnings. American Telephone rose
on a favorable earnings report. 1t
was one of the leaders of the week.
Farm equipments fell off when
wheat broke but later recovered
nearly all the losses. Copper shares

boosted to 9 cents pound for the

Exports Have Vanished

NORMALLY the United States
IN exports from 10 to about Is
per cent of her wheat crop. But in
recent years conditions have not
been normal and exports have been
declining. OF late we have been eX-
porting virtually no wheat. A rela-
lively large surplus of the cereal has
piled up and it has been next to
to work it off. Last year
the crop was abnormally small, so
a slight reduction was effected, but
there is grave danger that a further
increase in stocks may take place in
the current year if even en- average
crop is harvested.
Assuming the United States could
hold down the size of its crop to
domestic requirements, it is fair to
assume that it could come close to
controlling prices. 1t can always
adjust its tariff so as to exclude i'm
portationS. But the size of crops is
something even the government can
not regulate, because the weather

World says in its issue today. Re-
ports received by that paper from
approximately $500 large manufac-

This statement is based on re-

considerably greater than in other
recent months, contrasting with 20
