WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE ur.

ton, 1.-THE task of maintaining the sub
sistence of the Allies is at once po'
litical and moral obligation and mill
tary necessity. War is always destruc-
tive of production and, in a peculiar
sense, it is destructive OF the produc-
ton of foodstuffs, since war leads to
a scarcity of labor and labor is one Of
the chief factors in cultivation of the
soil.
I'm addition, the wheat crop Of prac.
tically the entire world has suffered
serious reduction during the past year;
and the prospects for the coming year
promise little or TO increase in the
production of this essential cereal.
