The brief existence of the faun
board and its price stabilization the-
ory was undoubtedly brought alxiul
by the economic slump, which sent
the prices of cotton and wheat tn
, an almost unbelievable low levels.
Had not the price depression occurred
so quickly after the board was es-
tablislwd. »ls life prtthnbly won’d
have been prolonged. Nevertheless
then* appears no dispute for the
statement that the federal government
has learned a lesson, and will not

' in such a fashion.
D< ir>tions for Relief.
The lesson was a costly one. The
final audit of the faun board's -tabil- •
i izalion corporation's Ixxiks will not
show the real cost, however, for du.- -
ing the past year congress has liber-
ally donated much of the stabiliz**- {
tion wheat and cotton to the Red;
Cress for relief purposes. A
of 85,000.009 bushels of wheat
500.000 bales of cotton were 1
from the boaid. for which it was
ited $4(HMHi.0O0. While this amount i
i materially above the maiket va
j of the commcxiitics at the time
the transfer, it did not repay
board for the original purchase price
of the c< tton alone.
The loss by this transfer, based
upon the original cost of the wheat
