NAY TURN TO CORN poNE.
Advance in Wheat TO 50 a Bushel
VIII Mean Use of Cheaper
Grain, is Belief.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-Two dosaf
wheat will mean that Americans viii!
eat corn it was said here last week
by prominent dealers in grain.
A national agitation to induce Con-
eress to place an embargo on the
export of wheat and flour as well as
ON arms and ammunition will. be in-
PRODUCED at the next meeting Of the
Chicago Retail Grocers and Butch
ers' Association, it was announced.
S. Westcrfeld, chairman of the
trades relations committee Of the
National Association of the Retail
ers planned to begin in this manner
a determined fight against the high
cost Of flour and. incidentally, OF
home4baked bread.
Leaders ON change predicted yes
terday in some instances that if the
price of wheat went much higher
there would be general turning to
corn in place Of wheat bread, both in
this country and in Europe. Other
dealers declared that bakers COM
plants were unwarranted since q
barrel Of flour costing 81 would
make 275 loavcs of bread which the
retailer sold for $13. Is at cents a
loaf.
One we'll known expert put the
breadstuff situation this way:
at is not so much a question OF
price for wheat as question of sup
ply. viii there be enough to feed
two continents? If wheat goes to
So, it will mean eating Of corn as
never before"
In this connection one Of the prin-
cipal firms on the Board Of Trade
made public dispatches received in
dicating that farmers ideas as to
corn were away up, and that many
growers said corn would soon sell al
81 bushel on the farms. The low
est price of May corn in Chicago to-
day was 76 g. cents.

GREAT BRITAIN's REPLY
Contents Substantially What Had
Had Been Anticipated

Washington, Jan 1.-THE reply o!
Great Britain to The protest OF the
United States against British prac-
tees in interfering with the neutral
trade of this country was made pub
lie at. the State Department yester-
day afternoon. q
In tone, the British note IS even
more friendly and in spirit quite as
frank rs the American note. 1t IS m
Most respects a convincing argument
in support of the British exercise Oh
its control Of the seas and seeks u
refute some Of the contentious sci
forth in the American protest.
Aside from the protest against
the methods rather than the princi-
ple of the British policy with regard
to stopping contraband destined for
enemy country, it was considered
that the strongest point in the Amer
lean note was the contention that
Great Britain had Violated her own
and the accepted rule in her treat
ment of foodstuffs as absolute con-
traband when consigned TO neutral
countries adjoining Germany.
The British reply to this cohten,
ton is probably the weakest point III
the argument Of his maJestv's govern
ment. While it is maintained that
Great Britain has adhered to the &C,
cepted rule, and while it is declared
that It is her present intemion to nc
50. an excuse for departure IRON
the rule in future is sought in the al
legation that her enemies are vlolat-
ing the accepted rules of civilization
and humanity.
In general the British reply pre-
sents little that was not anticipated
bv those familiar with the respec-
tive views of the two nations.
