Plan to withdraw 200 million bushels of wheat to lift prices
Chicago July 20 plan by American Farm Bureau Federation president O E F Bradfute to withdraw 200,000,000 bushels of wheat from the market and store on farms to raise prices. Financing under the intermediate credit act could provide about 660 million dollars for loans with bonded warehouse receipts as collateral. The plan aims to store 150 million dollars worth of wheat, enabling growers to borrow up to three fourths of market value while prices rise, with 46 state farm bureaus and country banks cooperating. The Wichita intermediate credit bank now advances 100,000 dollars daily, potentially rising to two million dollars daily. The move is expected to raise prices immediately, Bradfute says.
