Hoover Report Warns of Wheat Price Slump and Speculation
Information Bureau reports to President Wilson from Herbert Hoover warns that farmers and consumers suffer while speculators profit due to delays in food control legislation. It calls for strong action to protect farmers from price slumps and curb speculative profits, detailing wheat harvest, consumption, and export balance, and noting ongoing congressional delays. The letter emphasizes three plain facts: farmer protection, rising undernourishment in consuming centers, and the shift of profits to speculators. It also covers international trade impacts, shipping shortages, and the need for coordinated price regulation to stabilize the market.
