U-0 00 p. m. f f bto Agency May Buy Grain For Bolster WASHINGTON, Feb. 8 (Pv-The chairman of the house agriculture committee Saturday urged the com modity credit corporation to re sume wheat buyliiR activities Im mediately "before price, are fur ther demoralized." Rep. Hope (R-Kas.) made his request in a telephone conversa tion with commodity credit cor poration officials. He told a re porter later the agency Is consid ering It but he was Informed the corporation would do no buying today. "The weakness of the wheat market during the past few days has been accentuated because of the absence of any buyinc on the part of the commodity credit cor poration,'' Hope said in a state ment. "From recent high prices wheat has dropped as much as 60 cents a bushel. I do not believe that anyone benefits when prices are demoralised to this extent." Price Stability "In the Interest of price stability here at home, In the Interest of the European relief program and in the Interest of using wheat for human food instead of livestock. I believe it is important that the commodity credit corporation re sume its buying activities before prices are further demoralized." Figures indicate clearly, Hope said, that the world wheat supply is far below minimum food re quirements. While crop prospects in Europe are better than a year ago they are worse in this country, he added. Wheat prices in tills country have not been high in comparison with other prices or the price of wheat in other parts of the world, he contended. Bread prices have increased less than those of almost any com modity during or since the war, advancing only 64 per cent while the national income was climbing 231 per cent, he said. Argentine Selling While Argentine is reported to be selling wheat at about 15.20 a bushel, presumably the competitive world price, the grain at certain Kansas points was selling today as low as $2.20. Hope said. That price, be declared, is en tirely out of line with other prices in this country, including livestock prices, and can lead only to the increased consumption of wheat for feeding livestock. Any considerable increase In feeding of wheat to livestock threatens the European relief pro gram and means a possible short age for human consumption at home, he declared. Army Labeled Too Generous WASHINGTON, Feb. 9 m Rep. Elston (R-Ohio) said Saturday he is convinced the armed forces are too generous with tax-free disability pay to retired regular officers. Elston is chairman of a house armed services subcommittee which it investigating the army-navy re tirement system. "It is quite apparent," he told a reporter, "that they have been ap plying a double standard as regards regular and non-regular officers." The subcommittee has been study ing the service retirement systems almost a year. Its first week of hear ings closed yesterday. They will re open February 16. Some former admirals and gen erals drawing tax-free disability pay are earning over $30,000 a year as civilians, Elston said, and one ex admiral is making $125,000.
