anti-inflatiOn measures to curb profit
teering in commodities.
Well-to-do farmers had held cash
crops off the market in the last months
of 1947. partly to avoid taxes on their
incomes OF last year. partly to wait
for still higher prices -Sfa bushcl for
wheat, for example and partly be-
cause they expected a tax cut this
year.
The big food trusts withdrew their
monopoly support OF the commodity
markets to weaken the peoples de-
mands for food price rollbacks and to
stymie the third round drive for wage
increases which will come to a head
in the next six weeks.
Finally. the government, which had
exaggerated shortages in grains and
other foods to gain support for the
Marshall Plan last fall brought its
purchase program TO 4 close, thus tenn
porarily at least cutting the underpin-
ming for a sustained peculative adj
vance in foods and other commodities.
The combination Of all these factors
inter-acting upon each other and ex
erting a cumulative. total effect on the
commodity markets, set off the Feb
ruary price break. Whatever the spe-
cific cause--nervols SPECTATORS, man.
ipulation by the food trust, dumping OF
commodities on the markets by farm
ers after the first 81 the year. the
governments admission that it had

ages-the situation Was ripe for a
major crash in commodity prices.
The important thing for workers is

continue for a number Of months be
fore it will be Translated into retail
price redHctions. Unions and their
members cannot accept the commod
ity price break as a slbstitute for &
substantial wage increase. First. in
