CORN MARKET AND "»
ELEVATOR PLANNED
Movement To Establish Faoltltlea
Manufacturing Surplus Of
Produots
Atlanta.—A movement was recently
;launohed by the Atlanta Commercial
Exchange to establish facilities In At
lanta for marketing the very large sur*
plus of corn produced In Georgia this
year.
; J. W. Bachman, president of the ex
change, reported to the directors the
results of an Investigation of tho dif
ferent angles of the situation, which
he has been making several weeks, and
was requested by the directors to pro
ceed with the movement with all pos
sible dispatch, which he will do.
Two things are necessary, said Mr.
Bachman, to give the farmers of Geor :
gia adequate facilities for marketing
,their surplus of corn and any other
grains they may produce. These are:'
1. Contract market, or grain ex
change, where authoritative prices re
flecting the general grain market are
quoted daily, and where buyers and
sellers may be brought together.
2. Grain elevator, where corn pro
duced in Georgia, and oats and other
grains, may be shucked, shelled, grad
ed, stored and warehouse receipts is
sued.
Discussing the details of tho move
ment, Mr. Bachman said:
"Georgia this year has produced near
ly ninety million bushels of corn, plac
ing her among the first ten corn states
of the Union. We have never elabo-
rated in this state our facilities for
marketing our surplus corn crop, and
now we find our farmers confronted
with a marketing problem. They are
compelled to market their corn haphaz
ard, finding customers wherever they
can.
"The Atlanta commercial exchange
embraces corn and grain. It has de
cided to undertake the creation of
adequate facilities for marketing corn
on a great commercial scale. Under
the Capper-Tincher bill passed recent
ly by congress, the secretary of agri
culture in Washington is authorized
to designate contract markets for
grain where exchanges or boards of
trade are in existence, and where grain
is sold in sufficient volume to reflect
the market. lye are now in touch with
Secretary Wallace in Washington and
with our state department of agricul
ture in Atlanta for the purpose of hav
ing a grain contract market created
here under the Capper-Tincher act.
“We hope to be able in a compara
tively short time to give the relief so
sorely needed. Our farmers were ask
ed to diversify and produce food. They
responded to that appeal, and now they
are asking a market for their surplus.
It Is the duty of commerce and fi
nance to come to their aid..’
