CHICAGO, Nov. 3 (URiA reaction in the boom of wheat prices clipped off one cent today from the closing figures established at record heights for the season yesterday. It was a development predicted IQr grain men and many were surprised that extremely heavy profit taking by those who bought wheat when it was less than 50 cents a bushel and are selling it now around 05 cents did not force the price down more drastically. Chicago, Nov. 3 (U.R) AGRICULTURE. FOUNDATION Wheat, the grain which spelled despair and want for thousands of American farmers a few weeks ago when its value sank to the levels of Elizabethan England, today was hailed as a saviour. Optimism replaced gloom in the wheat growing regions of the west as farmers read reports that December wheat was selling at 63 cents a bushel. STEADY RISE GIVES HOPES In less than a month an unswerving rise had carried the cents to 20 price up 19 a bushel from a low previously unequalled in American grain trading and recorded only at Liverpool in the seventeenth century. The advance was attributed to sudden development of short crops in Russia and other European grain countries. In part however, the rise came because the outlook for wheat was so black at planting time this fall. Farmers in every section of the country cut their winter wheat acreage sharply. A 15 to 20 per cent reduction in acreage was estimated to have resulted. held their Other farmers gram on their farms at harvest time. Prices were so low they feared it could cost, them more to ship it than they would receive. They stored the grain in anywhere barns, attics, cellars it would be safe, hoping dimly that by some miracle prices would rise eventually. 1- -4 3- -8 MIRACLE COMES, FARMERS SELL Now that miracle has who had looked toward come-Farmer- Nov. 3. WASHINGTON. (UR) American agriculture is building a foundation for the return of prosperity, Carl Williams, member of the federal farm boivd, said today. Grain prices are definitely on an upward trend. Williams, discussing the feeling of jubilation in the west, said he felt the increased prices completely justified. LAYS assertions that Discussing agriculture is leading tWe way out of depression, Williams said he preferred to think of as agriculture at this time for building the foundation of prosperity instead actually entering upon better times, Cotton usually leads "he way out of depressions, Williajp? said. At present, wheat seenls to have gotten ahead of it. The signs of a real return for the improvement of all industry will, I believe, come from cotton. The building up of consumption will tell the story several months in advance. Seventy Tpr tent of American cotton goes into domestic industries and when the industries start humming again, prosperity is only a short distance away.

This has been due more to arrangements for holding off the market some of the bumper 1931 cror ban to increased consumption. However, every indication is that consumption will pick up soon, bot at home and abroad. The agricultural situation has since tremendously summer, when the farming out- look was clouded by the lowest prices in history and a produc- tion which had outdistanced consumption.
