OF these cereals our shipments of
the prime breadstuffs In the fiscal year
1918 to Allied destinations were:
Wheat 1871, 900, 900 bushels and of rye
1890 900 bushels, a total of 4,9O0,-
600 bushels.
The exports to Allied destinations
during tie fiscal year 1857 were:
Wheat 35,1OO,OO0 bushels and rye
100000 bushels. a total Of III 100000
bushels. In addition some 100000
bushels of 1917 wheat are now in port
for Allied destinations or en- route
thereto. The total shipments to Allied
countries from our last harvest Of
wheat will be therefore, about 141 ,00O,-

bushels Of prime breadstuffs. In ad-
hilton to this we have shipped some
A0,000,0O0 bushels to neutrals depend

some imports from other quarters.
"This accomplishment of orr people
In this matter stands out even more
clearly If we bear in mind that we had
available in the fiscal year 1916-17
from net carry-over and as surplus
over our normal consumption about
200 ,0O0 900 bushels Of wheat which we
were able to export that year without
trenching on our home loaf" Mr..
Hoover said. '"This last year, however
owing to the large failure of the 1917
wheat crop, we had available from net
carry-over and production and imports
only just about our normal cOnsump-
ton. Therefore our wheat shipments
to Allied destinations represent ap-
proximately savings from our own
wheat bread.
"These figures, however, do not fully
convey the volume of the e.iort and
sacrifice made during the past year
by the whole American people. De-
spite the magnificent effort of our agri-
cultural population in planting a much
increased acreage in 1917, not only was
there very large failure in wheat,
but also the corn failed to mature prop
erly, and our corn is our dominant crop.

concluding his report, that all the

well as urban, who have contributed
to these results should feel very
definite satisfaction that In Il wear Of

ton the o. S. Food Administration
has asked every American to observe

sure there shall be enough for our
Army and Navy, for the Allied armies
and for the civilians of those nations.
By New Years the world sugar sit
uation will be relieved somewhat by
the new crop. Cuban sugar of this
years crop will be arriving in this
country.
Every available sugar source will be
drawn on by the Food Administration
during the next winter months to main
tain sufficient stocks here to keep up
our national sugar supply. During Oc-
tober the first American beet sugar
will arrive in the markets. By the
middle of November some of our Lou

of this sugar and more may be needed

Our Situation.
The situation which the United
States faces in Its efforts to maintain
a fair distribution of sugar to the AL
lied world is as follows:
Sugar supplies throughout the coun-
try, In homes, stores, factories and
bakeries are at low ebb. We must
make increased sugar shipments to the
ALLIES.
Production Of American Beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been dlsap-
pointing.
Porto Rico crops have been cur
tailed.
immense sugar stocks In Java can
not be reached on account Of the ship
ping shortage; ships are needed for
troop movements and munitions.
Army and Navy sugar requirements
have increased as we'll as those from
the Allies.
Most industries using sugar have had
their allotment reduced by one-half /;
some will receive no sugar.
Households should make every eff
fort to preserve the fruit crop without
sugar, or with small amounts of sugar.
Later, when the sugar supply Is larg-
err the canned fruit may be sweetened
as 1t is used.

year, valued In all at S1,400, 100000.
This was accomplished in the face Of a
serious food shortage in this country.
bespeaking the wholeheartedness and
patriotism with which the American
people have met the food crisis abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, in let
ter to President Wilson, explains how
the situation was met. The voluntary
conservation program fostered by the,
Food Administration enabled the piling
I'D of the millions of bushels of wheat
during 1918 and the shipment of
meat during 1917-1S
The total value of all food ship
ments to Allied destinations amounted
to 81 ,4OO,0O0,000, all this food being
bought through or In collaboration
with the Food Administration. These
figures are all based on official reports
and represent food exports for the
harvest year that closed June 80 1918

BURDEN ON MIDDLE CLASSES
Those With Fixed Salaries or Incomes
Are the Real Sufferers In
Germany Today.

The situation in the German labor
market as described in the official
MISUNDERSTANDING Labor Ga
zette- pictures the relative pros
perity of the working classes in con-
trast to the grinding perjury of the
people who draw fixed salaries, and
others of the middle classes. It is es-
ti1nated that the incomes of the
working men have risen proportion
ately far beyond the increased cost
of living, because of the war, con-
sidering the fact that the workers
wives and children have been able
to add substantially to the family in
comes owing to the abnormal condi-
lions and wages.
The Gazette's figures. compiled by
the imperial statistical bureau up to
September, 1917, show that shop
workers wages had risen from 90 to
IT'S per cent since 1914. It is cal
culated that other workers, not i'm
mediately connected with war indus
tries, such as woodworkers, stone
masons and plasterers, are earning
an average Of a thousand marks
more annually than they did before
the war.
With the increased wage the work.
ers are enjoying many extra facili-
ties for the securing of food which
are not available to the middle
classes, who are the real sufferers In
Germany today.

Increase ........... 844 100000 lbs.
Our slaughterable animals at the be-
ginning of the last fiscal year were not
appreciably larger than the year be-
fore and particularly in hogs; they
were probably less. The increase In
shipments is due to conservation and
the extra weight of animals added by
our farmers.
The full effect Of these efforts began
to bear their best results In the last
half of the fiscal year, when the ex-
ports TO the Allies were 2,133, 100000
pounds, as against 1.266, 100000 pounds
in the same period of the year before.
This compares with an average of
sol 100000 pounds of total exports for
the same half years In the three-year
prewar period.

duced to terms of cereal bushels our
