COMMISSION NAMED
TO LOOK AT TER THE
SUPPLY OF WHEAT
President of British Board
of Trade Makes Announce
ment to This Effect on
Opening of Parliament

London, October 10.-The British gov
eminent has decided to appoint a royal
commission, with Lord Crawford as
chairman. to take steps to ensure ade-
quate and regular supplies of wheat and
flour. This announcement was made to-
day in the House of Commons by Walter
Runciman president of the Board of
Trade. Mr.. Runciman said it had become
clear that supplying wheat for Great
Britain could not be left to private en-
terprise.
eminent has made a larger purchase of
wheat in Australia Steps have been
taken to acquire the tonnage necessary
to convey it to this country.
Mr.. Runciman said the commission
would cooperate with the allied commit
tee which meets daily in London and
has made purchases for England, France
and Italy. The commission, he contin-
ued, would avail itself of the experiences
of the committee which had purchased
supplies of sugar. The result would be
that importation of wheat would be
largely, il not entirely, under control of
the commission.
The possibility that large quantities of
wheat at present locked up in grain .ex-
porting countries might be freed as a re-
suit Of military operations led to a dis
inclination on the part of traders, Mr..
Runcman said, to hold more stock than
was absolutely necessary. 1t had be-
come clear the price of wheat could not
be left safely to private enterprise. AS
importation in the future would be in
the hands of the state, he explained, the
full benefit of the reduction in cost
of carriage would accrue to the state
The system adopted by the requisitioning
committee would be continued and the
vessels requisitioned would be required
to provide space necessary at a fixed
cost, and not at variable rates.
