ARMOUR REFUSES
JO DIVULGE HIS
'i f Chleaso. Oct. I. U. P.) Fffor'ts
bf the federal trade com mission inves-
-tifca.ing' the Chicago board of trade
to obtajn businea secret of leading
grain daajers here, had met with little
uccess today; t '
: 3. OgiJem Armour and George E.
' Marcy, president: of the Armour Grain
company, both refused, to furnish the
coin mission- with figures regarding
' their operations on the hoard. i:.
On tha advice of attorneys, they re
fused toi answer questions pertaining
to their personal business, but: indi
cated tha answers inay be riven later.
Armour stated that he would "appear
"before the . commission. Friday and at
that time decide "whether or not he
'would give the information desired.
SKES BEHEFrr TO farmer!
Trading in grain futures in the Chi
cago wheat pit U beneficial to the
American) farmer, even -though the
grain does -jaot always bring & fair
price. Armour, directing head of the
Armour" stacking and grain, interests,
"Wednesday told four members- of the
federal trade 'commission. i
"I do not do Any personal trading on
the Chicago board-of trade." Armour
testified. "And I do not know any
thing concerning the rules of the board
of trade. I handle all my deals
through brokers."
"Do you, consider that the specula
tive market gives -the grower a fair
4eair- aeksed Victor Murdock, chair
rnan of the committee.
1 "I think it doea," Armour replied.
r, "The grower needs & market, and
there it is. There are times, to be
'mire, when he doesn't get a fair price,
but that is a chance every one takes
In every kind of business."
WOULD REQUIRE PLA2CIttIG
"Have you any idea, how the' May
squeeze could be eliminated r
"No, I have not. That would Involve
considerable! planning."
"Will you produce all of your books
and records! ofj grain transactions be
fore the coanmiittee?" Murdock asked
the packer. !
"No, I do most think I will do that,"
said Artnaur. "That would involve
bringing in the names of a number of
brokers, tenpi I jwould not care to do
that at this time."
Armour was followed by George E.
Marcy, president of, the Armour Grain
company, and a prominent grain brok
er, who admitted that while' he ad
vised some ol his clients during Jan
uary and February, 1922, that "wheat
was out of the country," he might
have advised: Armour aid company
against buying at that time.
"Wheat -ibecame plentiful in April
'because of the big western shipments
and a - sag in the foreign market,"
Marcy admitted when questioned fur
ther. ' -
MARCY AX80 DECLINES
Marcy also refused -to bring records
of his grain deals before the commit
tee. : I
The commissioners have submitted
two propositions -to every witness
First, that" .grain: on Chicago contracts
be made deliverable to4, other cities.
Such as Kansas City and Omaha, and
eecond, that the open trade-: of each
day be' published. I
Opposition has been Registered
against both proposals. Marcy attacked
the second, advocating secrecy for the
totals of grain futures trading
"It .vjuld be Just another thing to
lead people into BpecujaUfitc'- Marcy
declared. "It would he better to sup
press all stories now puhlished in news
papers about certain i: traders accumu
lating 'long strings.' .;The j publication
of each day's total volume in . wheat
futures, the following V day would do
harm. People who don't understand
the market would read them and be
misled. Seeing the publication of open
lines of long wheat holdings would be
detrimental because others would do
likewise." . - . '
AS PRICE rNSCHAIfCE"
Warning against further restrictions
on the speculative buyers, Marey de
clared that tl)e -government "should
not limit speculators too much or the
larmer won't get his price." He con
tended that the existence of .a year
round futures i market acted,, as price
insurance for the farmer'
Corners are now impossible on the
Chicago board of trade, Marcy told the
commissioners. a, -

ican ships carrying liquor anywhere,

before the notice went out He said he
did not know what penalty, if any,
would ' be substituted, but that the
liquor .would be seised and not. the
ships themselves.
