BEHIND The
TICKER


Gals arc convinced that congress
does not intend to help Secretary
Hopkins in his business recovery
movement AS previously reported
here, those congressman most
vocal were sponsors of large
money spending bills. This is now
confirmed by the fact that even
though President Roosevelt asked
for some action on retrenchment.
congress ran haywire in financing
an unusually large farm bill.
To business and banking execu-
tives the whole recovery move
ment has been a lot of congress
sional bunk They now say the
president was more sincere than
congress. They see it as a game
of politics - buck passing from
congress to the White House and
back again. In that play, it may
be said on good authority, big
business favors Roosevelt.
Warning Secretary Wallace
saws that of the 100, 900, 900 BUSH
els of surplus wheat purchased TO
be dumped in world markets, there
are only about $500, 900 to 60.
When the full sales drive is COM
pleted. the government will have
lost about S20,000,000 on the pro-
gram.
However. Wallace says domestic
farm export trade will never equal
that OF the 1920's. He says world
wheat producers must cooperate
on production restrictions or prices
will run low. He warns that II
cooperation can't be arranged, the
United States will continue dump
ing to maintain its share Of world
markets.
