The commission says “that while ‘is not available that future wheat prices, it does future trading in wheat as at operating is of indisputablé service to the grain trade.” It sug- gesis that legislation “not with war powers be cnacted.” The commission tells the president that because of the failure of the Chi- cago board trade to co-perate it was unable to obtain nec 'y infor- mation as to whether there had been large tr ctions in wheat futures of a manipulative character. not appear of The investigation of the wheat situ- ation was requested by the president after Governor Allen of Kansas and others had urged him to bar Canad- ian wheat importations. Declaring the decline of wheat prices would appesr to be in part due to world-wide concitions, the commis sion assigns seven specific causes: The cutlook for an increased world supply; concentrated buying by for- eign governments last spring and slack purchases latér; “unprecedent- ed” importations from Canada follow- ing “an unprecedented yield and a dis- connected | breaking vield of corn in this country; the slackening of demand for flour; the general tendency to decline in miay commodities, and the change in credit conditions. ¥'Future contracts may have a legit- imate use before ‘hedgin®',” the com- mission sa In this connection it is claimed that future trading perform an insurance function where ordinary insurance methods would not be prac- ticable and that undue restriction of future trading such as would deprive the grain trade of this service might result in grain dealers requiring larger margins and consequently result either in lower prices to the:farmer or high- er prices to the consumer.
