TO PAY DRAWBACK ON WHEAT FOR FEED In order to maintain the July level of prices at which wheat was sold for feed, whole, processed or in mixtures, a drawback of 8 cents per bushel has been tentatively announced and will be paid where the wheat has ..been 'pur- chased at the advanced levels effective since August -1st, 1942, The War- time Prices and Trade Boaid has stat- ed that it_is unlawful to sell wheat for feed at. higher price than prevailed during July, 1942, when wheat prices were based upon those of the "basic period." The Feeds Administrator, through the Agricultural Supplies Board, is making arrangements to set up the machinery for handling the drawback payments.- In those areas in which the Freight Assistance Policy is oper- ative, the drawback claims will follow thrbugh the same channels as do the freight assistance claims. For West- ern Canada it is expected that an office will be set up in Winnipeg to care for claims from the Prairies. The basis on which western claims will be made will vary somewhat in detail to those from the other areas but all will be based upon the same uniform per bushel payment, The whole matter relating to the drawback is to be reviewed at a later date when new crop grades are est- abll'shed on the market, It may then be necessary so make adjustments to the present policy if changed condi- tions warrant such action.
