j. 8. IS CALLED
GRA|N|MPORTER

The United States has suddenly
changed from a surplus to a
grain importing country. Peter B.
Carey, retiring president OF the
Chicago Board Of Trade, told the
membership yesterday.
He warned that indiscriminate
imports may bring serious harm
to the farmer and renew rural
unrest.
The report of Carey. who was
succeeded by Robert P. Boylan,
was presented at the annual
meeting, and sketched Carey's
three years in office.
He said the economic strain has
lessened, the farm future Is faced
with greater confidence, and that
"the economic cycle touched the
nadir Of hard times long ago and
has since been moving forward" d"
"The ground work has been
laid for a strong and vigorous
recovery"
New laws on grain marketing
are unneeded except for opening
up foreign markets for any future
surplusses, Carey declared. He
said some sections Of the rigid
Grain Exchange code needed
amendment to provide greater
market liquidity, and he strongly
advocated return of daily privi-
lere trading and a lowering of
the 3 cent tax on every 500
commodity futures trade.
Carey decried Governmental
tampering with grain markets in
various nations, pointing to the
recent disastrous results in France
through price-pegging attempts.
Liquid, open, domestic markets
and a free flow of grain between
surplus and needy nations, he de.
clared, is the solution Of the
wheat growers program.

porter. Demand for chemicals
was somewhat improved, but only

the part Of the steel and auto
motive industries and certain
units of the textile industry.
Price reductions affected glau-
ber'S salt and anhydrous sulphate
of soda, nitrate of silver, bismuth
subcarbonate, and Japanese sar-
dine meal. Organic fertilizer ma

Chicago. Competition weakened

Steel Operations
Climb in Chicago

Steady increase in demand for
steel on the part of automobile
manufacturers has necessitated
the addition of several open
hearth furnaces by local steel
makers as well as the firing of
two more blast furnaces in Chi
cago.
AS a result, ingot production
rate in this district this week will
run close to Sc per cent of the.
oretical capacity, comparing with
49 per cent last week and with
less than 80 per cent a year ago.
Local steel makers look for
further improvement in the near
future as one Of the big three
low-priced auto makers which has
not been able to get into line
production yet should be coming
in for steel on a large scale

RECOVERY LAG
!. LAID To F. D.

OMAHA, Jan. IS CU.S) .-Mer,
ryle Stanley Rukeyser, financial
columnist, in an address here last
night before the Adsel League,
charged that the tardiness of the
Administration in restoring eco
nomic balance along the lines ad.
vocated by President Roosevelt in
his prediction speech at Topeka,
Kan, was keeping 100000 men
unemployed and resulting in un-
precedented peace time chronic
budgetary deficits.
In speech here September 5,
Mr.. Rukeyser predicted that the
prospective pickup in farm in
come resulting from the drought
would reverse the business trend
and start a recovery. He said:
"The spiral has now been re-
verSed, and, given sound man.
agement in the large, we can
return to the benign predepres-
sion process Of setting new high
levels in average living stand.
ards.
However, if we stabilize at
the existing level, which is still
subnOrmal, we shall have i'm
paired living standards, unbal-
anced budgets, and a chronic
army of millions Of unemployed.
"The best data available in
dicate that to restore the pre-.
depression national income and
1928 volume Of employment, 1t
would be desirable to get the
gross farm income back to at
least $4,000 million dollars a
year. A.; ideal figure would be
closer to $4,000 million dollars.
"The prelude to economic
nOrmalcy, which means progress
In the United States, is an equi-
librium which permits the
physical exchange Of goods on
an equal basis, restarting the
endless circulation of goods and
services which spells prosperity"
