WILD DISORDERS IS GRAIN PIT AS WHEAT JUMPS Authority Declares Wheat Pools Have Cheated Speculators. Bu United Press MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 28.—Cooperatives and wheat pools have cheated the speculators and for the first time farmers are getting the real profit out of a good wheat market. This was the declaration today of C. K. Michener, editor of the Northwestern Miller and one of the small grain authorities of the world. “There is still considerable speculation, no doubt," said Michener, “but under present conditions a wheat corner is almost an impossibility. Present prices do not reflect the results of speculation, but apparently are based solely on world market conditions. “Russia bas'been buying flour and grain in unprecedented quantities and all Europe is in the market. “The American wheat farmer is benefiting from market conditions. Most of them have sold or are selling through cooperative or in wheat pools. They thus divide the profits. Os course the farmer who sold his wheat outright when he hauled it out of the field last fall is out of luck. 'But many of the farmers still have wheat in their bins and they are now gleaning the profits.’ Flour prices, up a dollar a barrel from last week are closely following wheat prices. Wild scenes were enacted in the grain pits, as May wheat broke through to anew record of $2.04% at 10:40 a. m. Coats and collars were ripped to shreds as scores of men flung themselves about gesticulating frantically with their hands and arms as they signaled for purchases and sales. May wheat closed at $1.99% Tuesday, after coming within one-quarter of a cent of $2. Today’s opening ■was $1.99%. Prices held around that figure for a short time and then the upward rush started. At noon May sold at $2.05, anew high. Bv United Press WINNIPEG, Man., Jan. 28.—Another sensational advance in wheat prices was recorded on the Winnipeg grain exchange today.
