A MATTER THAT NEEDS EXPANATION . A SUBJECT of decided interest has been brought to the front by letters written by H. H. Corey of the public service commission1 and answered in part by the Portland Ore gonian. The question is whether northwest wheatgrowers are being given the price they should get for their wheat in view of the prices paid in Chicago. , Mr. Corey is evidently of the conviction our farmers are not being fairly treated and if 60 he is right in bringing the m,atter to public attention. The Oregonian is evidently taking a de fensive stand in behalf of Portland exporters. If so. its argu ments may be" discounted as coming from an interested quarter. Furthermore, the Oregonian has not given a satisfactory answer to the main point raised by Mr. Corey. , The real point at issue was discussed by Judge A.' S. Ben nett of The Dalles in a letter to the Oregonian yesterday. In his communication Judge Bennett said among other things. If these Liverpool figures make It appear that at a given date a buyer In Portland can only afford to puty a cash price of $1.10 per bushel, and yet we , find that Chicago buyers on the same day are buying for that same market j and paying tl,l rents for similar wheat and paying a much hlghor freight , rate, and that this discrepancy In price has been maintained with apprnxl- mate constancy for many months, It seems to become almost a certainty that the Liverpool figures are either manipulated or misunderstood, Chicago is the great wheat market of the United Htates. a great propor tion of the wheat bought there Is 'bought for export und we may safely as sume that the export price governs. I can see no reason why there is not a comparison between the prices paM there for export and here, which Is both convenient and fair. In the Oregonian. January 18, the preceding day's rush prices for wheat at Chicago are quoted as follows! No. 8 Ted, 11.19: Xo. 3 dark northern 11.25." . " ' ' At the saime time the cash price for hard whito wheat In Portland Is niioted at 1.0 to $1.10, and all other varieties are quoted still lower. And there has hecn approximately the sumo difference In favor of Chicago for a long time. It seems safe to assume that Chicago buyers have been making (it leust a. fair profit on the wheat they havo been buying and exporting to Liverpool sond other places. If they can afford to export wheat und buy It t I.10 to .1.25 and pay 17 cents higher freight than Portland has to pay, whv cannot our exporters pay the same, or even u higher price und still make a fair and reasonable profit? L admit that there may bo qualifications- whVh modify the ennrluslnns which seem so plain upon the fuce of the figures; and there may be conditions of which I have no. knowledge, which might Justlfv a more or less d fferent conclusion. If there are such qualifications I should like to see them pre edited so thut myself and other farmers might Intelligently understand whv wheat prices are higher in Chicago than they are In I'ortlund If the freight rates (as seem to be conceded) are lower to the murkots of the world from Portlnnd than they ure from Chicago. . . What the farmer wants and should have is the truth. The subject is one of extreme interest to everyone because the pros perity of this section and of the nation rannnf h roar.0ri the buying power of agriculture is brought back to normal There are many who want more light on the wheat exporting subject. The East Oregonian is in that category. We make no charge that northwest exporters are not paying what Ih'-y should for wheat. We have no information on which to base such a complaint. But this newspaper is far from satisfied with the explanations offered by the Portland Oregonian. The Portland paper suggests that an inquiry be held by the public service commission or some other body. That is a good suggestion. Why not have. such an inquiry and arrange it so that there may be; present one or more federal men who are thoroughly conversant with the grain export trade. Those men should be disinterested and it would bo valuable to have their appraisal of the situation.
