Missing Vegetable Oil j Is any present or former Central Soya soybean oil involved in the missing SIOO million vegetable oil scandal that is now shaking New York and New Jersey? Anthony DeAngelis, president of the now-de-funct Allied Crude Vegetable Oil Refining Corporation, has been trying since 1955 to become the dominant figure in American export of soy bean and cottonseed oil. Investigations started this year on January 14, but no wrong-doing was discovered by the Chicago Board of Trade, where most of soy bean futures trading takes place. But in February and March the board began to show deeper concern. The Commodity Exchange Authority (CEA) the federal “commodity watchdog” then got into the act. - The question was, was Allied Crude speculating by buying soy bean futures, or was it hedging against future market prices? Allied said it was hedging, but evidence indicated otherwise. When it became evident that the New York Produce Exchange was not requiring its members to furnish clearing information, the rules were changed on Nov. 1.During September DeAngelis kept buying and buying, especially in the future at high prices, driving oil prices up at first. From Oct. 1 to Nov. 18, DeAngelis moved from 20% of the futures market to 39%, and from 79 to 91% of the cottonseed market. On November 18, Allied was unable to cover its future purchases with cash; nor were a number of brokerage firms which had taken warehouse receipts •at the company’s Bayonne, N. J. 200-tank storage installation. The sudden drop in price raised their “hedge money.” But when the brokerage firms checked the storage in November, they found the tanks tremendously short of vegetable oil. They had nothing but paper, and the company had nothing to repay them with I Allied filed bankruptcy Nov. 19, quickly followed by the once-powerful Ira Haupt & Co., Wall street brokers, which held $lB million in worthless call slips; J. R. Williston & Beane, Inc., was unable to collect $610,000 and asked to be absorbed by a larger firm; D. R. Comenzo & Co. has been suspended from trading because its capital structure was temporarily impaired. . , Now the grand jury and many other investigating groups are trying to find out what happened to the “missing” oil — and who, besides the American housewife, is going to be stuck for the cost of it.
