and flour operations exhibit marked
decline. The interior of the country

the farm and the new regime in which
the farm and the feed lot serve the pur-

value of these raw materials at the
place of production. Under these cir
cumstances the decline in receipts and
shipments of cereals at North Atlantic
ports as we'll as of flour is not unex-
pected. Moreover, the outlet to the east
and to Europe by way of the Pacific
coast ports for both grain and flour is
