CHICAGO,.. 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.
We still havo a tremendous
Job to do, but we will never re
lax for one moment until this
flood of war weapons has be
come an avalanche of power In
the hands of you soldiers, to
speed the day when you can re
turn to your homes. Alfred P,
Sloan, Jr., chairman General
Motors corporation.
