June 1 —(CP) -The GZ-year-reign of the Winnipeg Grain Exchange as one of the world's greatest ‘grain-trading centres will ccme to a. virtual halt Aug. 1 when the Canadian Wheat Board takes over the complete marketing of Western oats and barley. Authority for coarse-grain mar- keting on a pool basis under the board's control was announced to- day by the Trade Department. It said ‘in a. statement that the Gov- ernment intends to allow the board to ‘undertake’ marketing of the grains. It did not indicate whether the board would buy and sell in con- junction with t-he exchange. as it did when it first entered the wheat marketing picture in 1935‘. However, the Canadian Press later le med that the Government will re ove coarse grains from the exchange as it did with wheat in 1943 and make the board the sole marketing agency. This will leave the exchange with only flax and rye, two products which are in surplus, declining in price. Agricultural officials said the floor price on flaxseed, $4 a bushel. will come off in August and likely will not be renewed. There is no floor price on rye. Marketing of coarse grains in the 1949-50 crop year will follow similar arrangements made for wheat. Producers will deliver oats and barley to the board, receive an initial payment and let the board do the marketing at whatever price is established. Profits obtained through this pool method of marketing will be shared by the producers. Same quarters believe the initial price may be at the floor level-GI 1-2 ctr-its for Nb. i feed cats and 90 cents for No. 1 feed barley. Oats and barley futures showed an easier tone and increased liq- uidation in selling after word of the announcement reached Winni- peg. Hines fell sharply with ex- pectation by dealers and farmers that the board may take over coarse grains at floor prices. Nine Suspected Dope Peddlers Land In Jail VANCOUVER.
