Juno 30 (AP) Lowest prices since before Pearl hurbor were paid wheal farmers today for what grain they were willing or forced to sell on the evo of now cycle in the nation's ever-normal granary. With wheut for July delivery quoted near 1.13 on the Chi cago board of trade, the price was the lowest since December 1 when 5 i . I it i was paid for De cembur contracts. A year ago wheat was around $1.04 but in January this year it sold as high as $1.37. i Tomorrow u new crop year will begin, and, If present pros pects materialize, it will be Uia sixth consecutive season 1 n which tha United Stales will pro- duco moro than It can use. This serlos of big crops, cou pled with u World war that has cut off practically all tho normal export market, has given the na tion a carryover surplus of old wheat estimated at about 630, OUO.OOO bushels, exceeding any ever accumulated during bum per harvest periods before, With harvesters working their way north, having reached Kan sas, tho largest wheat producing state, and preparing for full scale operation soon in the fer tile Ohio valley, farmers thru, out the nation faced a problem of what to do with their new grain. Ono solution was offered by the government loan program, In operation the last several ycors, end largely responsible for the U. S. farmer receiving a much better price than do pro ducers In other exporting nations like Canada and Argentina. By 'storing wheal collateral and receiving government nan5, farmers could obtain from 10 to 20 cents a bushel, or more In somo coses, above morkct prices. A year ago this premium was only about a dime. The loan rate In Chlcugo, for example, is $l.3g for No. 2 grades; In Kan sas City $1.27.
