706 Big: Big-Scale : Traders Listed By Anderson

Pauley Only Federal Employee Named |

‘WASHINGTON. Dec. 22’ (UP)—| Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson today released a list og | 708 large-scale commodity - traders, who were in the market on Oct. 3, 1946, and Oct. 31, 1847. It showed that ‘Edwin W, Pauley, now special assistant to Secretary | of Army Kenneth C. Royall, held

Oct. 31 this year and 300,000 pounds, of cottonseed oil futures on that, same date. Mr. Pauley also held 240,000 bush els .of oats on Oct. 31, 1046, The list included only the big, traders who are required by law to make daily. reports to commodity exchange authority on their holdings. It nained all those who were big traders in wheat, cotton and 14. other commodities on Oct. 31, 1947.! The list also named big traders in wheat, cotton and nine other com-| modities on Oct. 31 1946. | No Other U. S. Employees Mr. Anderson said: “I am sure there are no government employees on the list except Mr, Pauley.” A series of lists covering small traders—expected to run as high as 12,000 or 15,000 names—will be issued later in answer to Congress’| action ordering Mr. Anderson to turn the lists over to congressional committees and permitting him to] make them public. Mr. Anderson sent today's lists, to Sen. Styles Bridges, chairman] of the Senate Appropriations Com-| mittee, with an accompanying letter in which. he said: “It is expected that all of the basic material you may require will be in your hands when Congress) reconvenes in January.” The lists were broken Sown as “speculative and spreading” “hating accounts. Mr. a] acgount was listed as “speculative| and spreading.” 1946 List ‘Small’ J. M. Mehl, chief of the Commodity Exchange Authority, said the 1946 list was “comparatively | small” because speculators were not so active then. He said speculation had increased rapidly.
