Data Processing May
Probe Trading Methods
The U. S. Department of
Agriculture announced re
cently a special study is un
derway to determine if auto
matic data processing tech
niques can be used effectively
in investigations of trading
practices on commodity ex
changes.
These investigations, which
involve painstaking analysis of
the pattern of individual buy
ing and selling transactions in
commodity futures over peri
ods of several days or weeks,
are conducted as part of the
regulatory duties of the Com
modity Exchange Authority.
The use of automatic data
processing will be studied as
a way to increase the number
of trade investigations and to
cover more commodities than
current techniques will allow.
CEA has made a limited
number of trade practice in
vestigations in the past to
seek out abusive practices in
the trading of commodity
futures. Most recently an in

HOUSTON Exports of
Charolais breeding cattle from
tire United States during 1965

American Charolais breedeis
exported 1,949 head 544
bulls and 1,405 females to
16 foreign countiies compaied
to 1,020 animals a year earlier.
Canada was the largest im
poiter of the American-pro
duced Charolais, taking 58 per
cent or 1,142 head Chaiolais
represented 39 percent of all
beef bleeding animals export
ed to Canada during 1965
Mexico was the second larg
est country in Charolais im
ports, buying 572 head, two
thirds of which were bulls tor
use in commercial ranching
programs Other countiies re
ceiving significant shipments
of Charolais included Nica
