Grain prices continued their downward trend during the week September 27, according to the weekly gTain market review of the U., S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Wheat futures reachd their lowest point since 1907. The market was influenced by continued . heavy offerings surplus areas and only a moderate import in quiry from deficient countries. Feed grains and rye were lower with wheat but were also influenced by some slackening in demand. Flax prices declined more sharply than other grains. World wheat markets continued to Tae mainly influenced by the large available supplies in exporting areas, Hie keen competition among these countries to dispose of their surplus and the tendency on part of foreign purchases to cover only their current The increase in world requirements. shipments for the season to date as compared with a year ago, however, reflects the larger prospective import requirements for the season. Italy has also made substantial surchases of foreign wheat although her buying is restricted by the prevailing milling regulations. French wheat was more freely offered on domestic markets" during the past week and prices of good milling wheat in Paris declined 3 per bushel to $1.51 8 per bushel. Offerings of native German wheat have been fairly liberal, of foreign wheat. New milling regulations have been enacted in Sweden reguiring the utilizaton of 60 native wheat in milling mixture. Liberal offerings of Canadian and Ttusian wheat on European markets Mve been much in evidence during the past week. Australian wheat has also leen put forward freely while offerings of odl crop Argentine and Indain wheat have slackened. Crop conditions in the southern hemisphere country continue favorable although additional and generous rains are needed within "the. near future in Argentina as precipitation in recent weeks has been much below normal. New crop offerings from Argentina for early shipments are increasing. WHEAT: Domestic cash wheat markets while easy, did not display same relative weakness as futures since demand from millers and feeders was fairly active and offerings were only s. moderate.

Mills were the best buyers of heavy test weight wheat of all protein strength at Kansas City while shippers bought intermediate types and feed manufacturers took light weight and samples; No. 2 hard ordinary protein was quoted at that market c September 26 at and 13 pro. tein No. 2 hard at 79y2c per bushel. Mills were buying good protein wheat tor mixing and blending at Omaha but low grade wheat was slow sale. Sales September 26 at that market include.! No. 1 hard winter 11.60 protein at c and No. 2 hard 11 protein at 76c per bushel. Export sales at the Gulf were reported quite smalj with No. 1 hard wheat at delivered on an export rate to Galveston to the Texas common points. Offerings of soft winter wheat were less than trade requirements. Market receipts were relatively light reflecting the reluctance of growers to market at the prevailing low prices as well as rather extensive feeding on fsrms particulary in soft winter wheat territory. The usually light receipts at St. Louis forced mills to cover their needs from supplies at terminal elevators. Premiums for No. 1 red windened during the week to 8c over the Chicago December; No. 1 soft red was quoted at St. Louis September 26 at 88 c and No. 2 red at 88c per bushel. The grain market of Cincinnati was very dull with a much reduced millnig demand; No. 1 red was selling at the close of the week at that marc ket at per bushel. Offerings of soft winter wheat were light at Kansas and met with a good mill demand; No. 2 soft red was quoted at 85c per bushel. Bowing of wheat in the southwest progressed favorably under good weather conditions during the week and early fiedls are up to good standards. Seeding in some sections of Kansas was being delayed until a later date to avoid Hessian fly injury. Some increase in the country movement of grain anticipated by the trade after fall seeding is completed. Pacific coast markets were relatively firmer than central western and eastern markets Free selling by Can. adian exporters and offerings of Russian wheat in EuroDean markets at unusually low prices restricted export demand in the Pacific northwest. The prospective export movement of New Australian wheat m Uecember was ment also a weakening factor. Export flour millers continued to work trade with China but in somewhat less volume than in previous weeks.

Receipts of cash wheat at Minneapolis were about the same as for last week, but larger than for same period a year ago. From a some-wheasy and dull cash situation in the forepart of week, local cash market turned stronger toward close as demand improved especially for wheat testing 56 lbs'., or better. On cars showing 59 lb or better, demand was sufficiently active to bring about a slight advance in premiums; 12 protein No. 1 dark northern quoted at close of market September 26 at c' over the December price of 77 c, c over. 13.14 and 15 protein Test weight was a major factor in determining premiums.

"FARM RELIEF" AND THE SUGAR BOWL Hasn't the Federal Farm Board enough troubles already without being asked to put its finger in the tariff pie? Domestic sugar growers have appealed to the Board for "sympathetic and moral support" of their efforts to obtain a higher duty on sugar. The petitioners recognize that the Board is not empowered to deal wth tariff matters, but they suggest that valuable aid might be rendered by the Board's economic staff in collecting data favorable to the cause of increased protection. That, for purely moral support, seems pretty concrete. The beet growers further state that they will assist the economic staff in sucn a task. This suggestion is particularly in view of tae fact that another government agency, the Tariff Commission, already has before it an investgation of the sugar tariff. On that commission sits Mr. Edgar Bross-sar- d whose zeal for the domestic sugar interests is hardly surpassed by that of Senator Smoot himself. Another member, recently appointed by the President, is Dr. John Lee Coulter who once testified before the House Ways and Means Committee that he was a sugar producer. The Commission's chairman, Henry P. Fletcher, is generally regarded as a protectionist. The tariff on sugar has always been classified as a manufacturers' tariff. Led by Senator JPat Harrison, the progressives in the Senate blocked an attempt to write a three cent rate into the Smoot-Hawie- y Act. That the sugar interests are now courting the Federal Farm Board is regarded by political analysts as an indication by political effort to secure still greater favors for sugar manufacturers by manipulating the flexible tariff provisions under the guise of "farm relief." extra-ordina- ry Work will start soon on St. George Kingman road project.
