                fixing, for the 1973/1974 marketing year , the monthly price
                increases for cereals and wheat or rye flour , groats and meal
   THE COUNCIL OP THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;
   Having regard to Council Regulation No 120/67/EEC ^ of 13 June 1957 on the
   common organization of the market in cereals , as last amended by EEC Regulation
   1346/73 * and in particular Article 6(2 ) thereof ;
   Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ;
   Whereas , when the number and the amount of the monthly price increases and
   the first month during which these are to apply are fixed , the storage costs
   and interest charges for storing cereals in the Community , the need to ensure
   that the disposal of stocks of cereals conforms to market requirements and the
   necessity that the relationship between the market prices of the different ca­
   tegories of feedgrain should be taken into account ;
   Whereas to this end it should be laid down that the. monthly increases for saft
   and durum wheat should commence on ,1 September ; and the total of such incoreases ,
   for common wheat , fixed at IO . 7O u.a . per metric ton ; whereas in view of the
hilfsher costs fbr durum wheat , the monthly in creases for that cereal must be fixed
   at a higher level than that fcr common wheat ;
 , Whereas since the selling period for barley and maize is shorter than that for
   cereals used fur bread-making , a price-seale should be fixed stretching over
   eight months and begining on.lSt October ; whereas , also , sic count should be taken
   of . the special uses of rye in certain community regions and price-scales for
   that cereal should , consequently , be fixed to begin on 1st September and stret­
   ching over nine months ;

Whereas the monthly inoreases in the threshold prices for other feedgrain must
be fixed at the same level and for the same period as for "barley and maize in
order to maintain for the whole of the marketing year the established ratio
between the threshold prices for the various types of feedgrain;
Whereas , because of the later begining of the maize , marketing year , the system
applicable to barley should not be used £>r that cereal and the date of 1st
November should be fixed for the begining of the monthly increases in the inter­
vention price » the amount of which should be fixed at a higher level than that
for barley in order not to change the relationship at present existing between
the intervention prices of barley and maize ;
