HOOVER INSISTS WHEAT
SAVING MUST CONTINUE

Dismayed by the reports spreading
thru the country that there is no lon
ger necessity for the conservation of
wheat, Herbert Hoover has sent the
following telegram to contradict them:
Reports have been circulated that
food administration officials state that
further wheat conservation is not nee
essary. No statement of such charac-
ter has ever been issued. The actual
position is that our supplies until har-
vest allow home consumption of ap-
proximately one-third of normal if we
are to maintain allied supplies. The
actual position is that in farmers
hands and storage we had at the be-
ginning of May 75,OO0,000 bushels of
wheat to carry us for approximately
three months or with an early harvest
perhaps two weeks shorter. Our nor
NAL consumption for three months
would be 12O,000,OOO bushels, not al
lowing the allies anything"
