Notice is hereby given of the policy of the Commodity Credit Corporation to facilitate sales in private trade channels of commodities acquired under the Corporation's price support programs by the issuance of monthly lists announcing various quantities of such commodities available for sale and containing information as to the price thereof. Those commodities available for export at reduced prices will be set forth in an export price list.

The lists may vary from month to month as additional commodities become available and as other commodities formerly available are dropped, and such lists may not necessarily be inclusive of all commodities

which the Corporation may have available at any time. The lists are to be issued for the purpose of public information and shall not be deemed to constitute an offer to sell by Commodity Credit Corporation.

The Commodity Credit Corporation will entertain offers from prospective buyers for the purchase of any commodities on the current lists. Offers accepted by Commodity Credit Corporation will be subject to terms and conditions prescribed by the Corporation. These terms include, among others, payment by cash or irrevocable letter of credit before delivery of the commodity, removal of the commodity from Commodity Credit Corporation storage within a reasonable period of time, and, in sales for export, proof of exportation.

spect to such sales may be addressed to the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington 25, D. C.
