1. GC: You will have before you the rdg. [195-29] made on 5/28/26, regarding weather forecast and its effect upon the price of wheat and corn. You will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding this.
2. EC: Yes, we have the information given in respect to weather forecast as made, and the effect the same would have upon grain - wheat and corn. The changes that have come in the interim show that in the various countries, districts, and especially that in grain and corn belts, have been in the way and manner as to carry out, not only the forecast as affecting the price of this commodity, or these commodities, but that the conditions will be near that given. For, as given, near the 20th of September will see the low price in wheat, and the corn will be not quite so low in proportion to the prices as given. And reports especially from Argentine and the Ukraine, with the London market, will have the effect, near the 15th to 19th of October, of the high prices in these two grains, ranging then from 128 - 29 - low to 58 - and 60, in wheat, and the corn near the same proportions.
3. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) December wheat futures were given as making lows on September 15th and high on October 20th. Are these dates correct and will December corn follow wheat in its rise from September 15th? (A) Follow the rise in nearer the same proportions than the fluctuations have been from May to the present time, see? for these conditions exist, and in part are correct, and these reports may be the criterion or indication to one following such conditions. And should these change, then change according to reports. A destruction in the market and in the growing grain in the South American republics will bring the high price, while conservatism in Italy, Ukraine, Germany, Russia and France will decrease the price, as also the rise in production in many western states, and the government reports of many countries of amount of

surplus on hand - especially that as held by Canadian government, and as in the bins in Minnesota, Kansas and in the west United States. See?
5. (Q) Will its rise be in straight line, or will there be a decline on way up? At about what figure will decline start from and how low will it go before rally again starts? (A) Already the decline, and gradually sinking until the 128 - 29 about the 20th of September, see? 15th to 20th. The gradual ascent from then in the variations, according to these various reports, see? No one is checked, as it were, against another. The northwestern and Canadian is yet to be harvested, and then the reports in the various marts of consumption are yet to be made, as to the conservatism and amount governments hold in reserve, see? These are the declining factors. In the rise, this is when the reports are given, after the harvest, in the United States, at the lack of available wheat and corn in sight, through various destructive agencies, and the demands begin to show in the foreign ports, with the destruction of growing grain in Australia and in South America, with floods in South Africa.
6. (Q) Will May wheat future have its customary rally in February 1927 about what date, and about how high? (A) These are to be at variance, in and under present conditions, but at PRESENT, and with those indications as we see through these channels, the high would be about the 23rd of February.
7. (Q) Will the weather conditions in South America be such that normal wheat crop will be harvested in January 1927? (A) As given, there will be destruction in Argentine and in the wheat areas in South America. Two varying reports - one in the beginning of the crops, see? the other December and in January, at the harvest. Hence the variations, or the high points and the easing off.
8. That is all the questions.
9. As for the weather conditions, and the effect same will produce on various portions of the earth's sphere, and this in its relation to the conditions in man's affairs: As has been oft given, Jupiter and Uranus influences in the affairs of the world appear the strongest on or about October 15th to 20th - when there may be expected in the minds, the actions - not only of individuals but in various quarters of the globe, destructive conditions as well as building. In the affairs of man many conditions will arise that will be very, very, strange to the world at present - in religion, in politics, in the moral conditions, and in the attempt to curb or to change such, see? For there will be set in motion [that indicating] when prohibition will be lost in

America, see? Violent wind storms - two earthquakes, one occurring in California, another in Japan - tidal waves following, one to the southern portion of the isles near Japan.
10. We are through.
