(By the Associated Press) Chieago, Oct. |11—“Hedging and trading in wheat future, is being driven from Chicago to Winnipeg and Liverpopl by the threat of the Capper-Tincher law,” John R. Mauff, secretary of the Board of Trade, told the Fed- eral Trade Commission today. The supremacy of the Chicago market which now handles more grain than all the rest of the world’s exchanges together, is seriov} ly threatened, he said, If the new law is upheld by the su- preme court, he added, buyers of cash grain who wish to “hedge” to protect themselves, will be forced to go to a British market to deal in futures.

Mr. Hill, member of the Board for 45 years, declared the greatest prob- lem in the Chicago market was the lack of storage. “Everybody would be doing busi- ness. if they would increase the 14,- 600,000 bushels capicity to. ,50,000,- 000,” he said. |) i A. $100,000,000 appropriation with which it could. enter ‘the market at any time was suggested by Arthur R. Roberts as the government’s most effective means of stabilizing grain markets. With this perpetual fund to hold the; market steady, wheat prices would remain between $1.25 and $1.50 constantly, he declared.

When advised of press dispatches and the shipment of anthracite to the Northwest was begun and that fifteen cars daily are being shipped over the Michigan Central railroad for St. Paul and Minneapolis, Mr. White said: “This shipment, if continued, nat- urally will relieve the situation somewhat, but a comparatively small tonnage can be shipped in this man- ner. If any quantity of hard coal is to be shipped to the Northwest it would be materially expedited by shipment via the Great Lakes before the close of navigation. With the cold weather approaching and the condition of the railroad equipment somewhat below normal, the North- west ‘cannot fully depend upon all rail shipments for its supply of hard coal.” For Pan Motor) to ing a suit for Pan Motor company and threats of other suits, creditors of the company Judge J.
