The pits were dug in strip-mine operations during the early Thirties, then left abandoned until the state took over 207 acres in 1954 as a public hunting and fishing area. Since then, little has been done to improve them and they have been used principally as a swimming hole by teen-agers from Des Moines and Indianola.

When a warehouseman speculates with government corn, officials say, he defeats the purpose of the storage program and is using corn while being paid 13 cents a year per bushel to keep that very corn off the market.

Called Service usually insist the grain bank corn belongs to them. Warehousemen are not required to list their own corn on warehouse receipts. After discussing the grain bank situation last week with Secretary of Agriculture Or-ville Freeman, Hughes said: "This presents a serious problem. We have no idea whether a warehouseman has the proper amount of corn to cover his obligations to the Commodity Credit Corp. and other grain storers who de pend on protection under the Iowa Bonded Warehouse law.

"If these grain banks are going to be operated, they definitely need to be controlled so that the warehouseman is accountable for all his grain obligations." Commerce Commission officials say that anywhere from 25 per cent to a majority of Iowa's licensed warehouses are operating grain banks.

Iowa law requires that any corn deposited in a warehouse for more than 10 days must be listed on an official warehouse receipt and registered with the Commerce Commission. Purpose of the law is to protect all grain depositors and banks lending money on warehouse receipts. Grain banks would be legal, Wheeler said, only if the elevator operator actually paid the farmer for his grain-banked corn or issued him a note for money due on the corn. Balance Sheet Warehousemen who don't pay for the grain bank corn but merely keep a debit and credit balance sheet on it are violating the warehouse receipt requirement of the law, Wheeler said.

Commerce Commission officials say, however, that they find" it impossible to prove that a warehouseman is conducting a grain bank, because he always claims he has bought the grain bank corn. "When they show this as purchased grain, we have been powerless to stop it," said Wallace Dick, warehouse superintendent for the Commerce Commission. "When a warehouseman is not accountable for grain bank corn" added Dick, "We're just stabbing around Iowa, said many grain elevator operators would like to see grain banking legalized under Iowa law.

Senator John J. Williams Del.) told the Senate last week that the mere fact that an Iowa warehouseman can repay the government for a shortage of grain is no excuse for the shortage.

Representative a I Smith Ia.) told a House committee that grain banking permits one of the loopholes in current inspection pro s. Smith noted that grain embezzler Alex V. Barbour, of Knoxville was operating a grain bank and thereby partially escaping detection of his corn shortage. If a shortage were to force the shipment of all corn from a warehouse, those with receipts would have first claim on all corn in the warehouse. Farmers with corn in the warehouse under a "grain bank" plan, having no receipts, could lose their entire store of grain.

Collateral Use At present, a warehouseman can record his own corn on a warehouse receipt, and then use the receipt as collateral in getting a bank loan. Warehousemen would like to have the law provide that a certain amount of their storage business could legally be a grain bank exempt from receipts.

Asked whether warehousemen would be willing to accept inspection accountability for their grain bank corn, Skinner said: "Facing it realistically, they should have to face accountability to someone." Without using warehouse receipts. Commerce Commission officials said the task of inspecting grain bank corn would be complicated.
