Thursday, MayJS, J932 Russia Enters Market As Wheat Buyer NORTH AMERICAN STOCKS SOUGHT REPORTS STATE May Be Using Cheaper : Wheat to Feed Army in - Siberia No Authentic j Information Yet. WASHINGTON. May 6 () While having no authentic reports, agri culture department grain, officials said today it is quite likely that Russia has entered the world wheat rrtarkct as a buyer and may take quantities of North American stocks. They point out that the soviet had a short crop last year and rationing has been resorted to provide seed lor new planting and some wheat for export. From press dispatches, officials havu been wondering If tlio Russian purchases are not for Its army in Siberia. It might be cheaper to buy wheat in Canada and ship it across the Pacific than to bring It up from Russian points. It was held probable that Russia is buying Western Canadian wheat be the mtans of removing a large part of the North American wheat surplus. There is some wheat available for export in the American Northwest, but it seems Canada would benefit more than the United. States from any wholesale Russian buying, in asmuch as it would prove too costly I lor mid western growers to compete with Vancouver shipments. The ex change rates favor Canada. Leslie A. Wheeler, In charge foreign agricultural Information, said "there Is no question but the 1032 Russian crop was a poor one. We know that the soviet government has been rationing for a long time to pro vide seed for planting and also for export. It probably Is true that when .Russia exported 60,000,000 bushels at tho start of the season it over shot Its mark and has had to make up Its needs In other ways.'' Latest figures, while not covering tho 1931 crop, show that revised es timates of Russia's huge 1930 pro duction are 989,000,000 bushels com pared with the 1,034,000,000 e cat) mate made a year ago. The commerce department has no information on Russian wheat buy ing, but since some trade reports say Russia has a surplus of 10,000,000 bushels which it presumably is will ing to sell, officials there said they were surprised that country would now be buying wheat.
