Probes Speculation On Farm Commodity Prices
Washington AP The Department of Agriculture is pressing an investigation into sharp rises in farm commodity prices to determine if lawful speculation is involved. J M Mehl administrator of the Commodity Exchange Authority said attention centers on the soybean market with traders handling as much as 1,000,000 bushels daily. Secretary Branagan calls much of current speculation excessive and unrestrained as profit hungry traders try to cash in at the expense of the war effort.
