Luckman. issuing his first report since the campaign was announced on Oct. 5, said industries which use grain were doing a good job of curtailing voluntarily. He said that on Wednesday, the committee and the department of agriculture would announce a program to assist farmers in their effort to save grain. Luckman cited no figures on the amount of grain actually saved to date under the program. But housewives shopping for groceries reported that the food drive had not had any noticeable effect on their food I>ins. Dunn & Bradstreet’s daily weighted price index of 30 basic commodities yesterday showed prices were 287.90, as compared with 284.96 on Oct. 1, shortly before the program started. The index, which includes items other than food, was 187.90 points above the price level of 1930-32, taken as base years.

One spot in the nation where prices reminded shoppers of prewar days was Vadalia, Ga. A price war among three grocery stores sent-steak prices down to 39 cents a pound, bread to 10 cents a loaf, and bacon to 72. cents a pound. When the news leaked out about the prices on Saturday, highways leading into the town of 6.000 persons were jammed. By nightfall almost every item in all three Stores was sold.

Yesterday, all three stores announced they would be forced to go back to regular prices this week. One estimated he had lost 85 percent on all sates. Other price developments: Chicago—M. L. Wilson, director of extension work for the department of agriculture told state agricultural leaders that farmers in the major corn and wheat growing areas are “strongly supporting” the grain-saving plan. Sioux City, la.—The house agricultural committee decided to cut short its “grass roots” survey of the farm belt in order to get back to Washington for the opening of the special session of congress. Witnesses at hearings yesterday demanded continuation of price supports, soil conservation and some production controls. but some indicated the present support level of 90 percent of parity Too high. St. Paul. Minn—The Minnesota cooperative service said yesterday that the state’s on-hand supply of corn will be about 15 percent lower for the crop year starting Oct. 1, 1947 than for the .previous year. The agency said there was 5,000,000 bushels more of old corn —left over from the 1946 crop—than was available on Oct. 1 last year, but the 1947 harvest is 38.000,0(70 bushels lower than last year.
