Cargill, Inc. Reveals Wheat Sale To Reds . MINNEAPOLIS (UPD—Cargill, Inc., announced Thursday the sale of 26.1 million bushels of wheat to the Soviet Union, the second major grain sale since American companies were given permission last October to deal with the Russians. * 1 The Minneapolis-based firm said the cash sale, valued at more than $53 million at current farm prices, calls for 500,000 tons of winter wheat and 200,000 tons of durum wheat. The 700,000-ton sale . ended more than , one month of negotiations, which were held up lately by a shortage of American flag ships to transfer half of the amount, as required by the agreement. I Cargill, which earlier sold 200,000 tons of wheat to Hungary, said the winter wheat ( would be shipped from the firm’s ports at Port Arthur, Tex., and Baton Rouge. La., this month and in March. Half of the durum wheat, to be purchased from government stocks, will be shipped in May from Atlantic ports and the rest - from Duluth, Minn. The firm said government subsidies of 64 cents a bushel will be paid, on the winter wheat, and 84 cents a bushel on the durum shipped to Duluth and 73 cents a bushel on the durum going to Atlantic ports. The subsidy makes up the difference between the U.S. domestic price per bushel and the lower world price. Most df the winter wheat will come from Kansas, with lesser amounts from Texas, Oklahoma and Nebraska. The durum variety, mainly used in macaroni and noodle making but suitable for mixing ' with bread - type grains, is grown principally in
