Great Wheat Stocks
Isolated.

It's the shortage In ships that
is putting the Allies and the
United States on wheat ratiof1s.
Great stocks Of wheat are iso-
lated In India, and Australia. At
great sacrifice in ship space and
use the Allies are forced to Sc
cure some wheat from Argentina.
On January 1, Australia had
stored 1OO.OO0.OO0 bushels Of
wheat that was ready for ex-
port-but there were no ships.
Then came the new crop with
an exportable surplus Of 8O,O00.-
600 bushels. Now Australia has
approximately 10000. 900 BUSH
els waiting for ships.
India, at the same time, had
7O,OOO,OOO bushels Of wheat
stored for export. During April
100000 bushels more out of
the new crop will be added to
the pile.
Argentina closed the last ship
ping season with 100000
bushels Of wheat left in the
stock available for export. The
new crop will add 135. 200. 600 to
the left over.
1t Is not a problem that the
wheat does not exist In the
world-it Is entirely a problem
Of shipping, which has thrown on
America the obligation Of divid-
Ing our stock with the Allies.

speech for War, Not Peace. Il View
In Paris.

PARIS, Tuesday. Feb. 26.-The con-
seusus Of opinion In official and dip
lomatic circles concerning Count Won
Hertlings speech is that 1t is a war
speech" not a peace speech"
The French press generally con-
siders the speech as simply a contin-
uation Of Germany's efforts 10 cre'
ate differences between the Entente
Allies.
"Von Heriling talks hypocritlcally
about peace" Gays the Petit Journal,
The speech is a monument OF hy-
pocrlsy," La Liberte exclaims
Marcel sembat In L'iieur finds the
Chanoellor's tone changed and at
tributes the modification to the In
fluence Of President Wilson's mes
sage.
Count Won Hertling has continued
the policy outlined by Foreign Sec
rotary Won kuehlmapn and added ono
more temptation, the Temps says II
adds;
'Protiting from the example fur
nished at this very minute by the
negotiations at Bucharest. Won Hert-
ling tries TO bring Belgium to talk
separately or at least to take sepa-
ratoly the initiative toward general
negotiations. But instead OF otferinl
guarantees to Belgium, he demands
guarantees. 1t Is the invader wh1
has tho pretension Of needing pro-
lection against his victim."

PRESS OF BRITAIN
SEES NO HOPE IN
HERTL|NG SPEECH
French Newspapers Consider
II Continuation of Effort
to Split Allies.

LONDON. Feb 27.-so far as the
British public Is concerned the mild
" ords OF Count Won Hertling concern
ing Germany's pacific intentions and
his partial acceptance OF President
Wilson's basis for lasting world peace
fall upon almost deaf ears. The Brit
ish press Is virtually unanimous in
the belief that the whole Eastern
situation has been cleverly arranged
and plotted with view to bringing
Eastern and Central Europe under
German domination, and for the vital
immediate purpose Of getting food
from the Ukraine.
The most important newspapers
which lean toward peace by negota-
t!on, notably the Westminster Ga
zette and the Manchester Guardian,
seem to have undergone a change OF
outlook as the result OF the events OF
the past week, while the Daily News
to-day, although condemning the
Entente for aiding Won Hertling's ar
gument that the Entente. and not
Germany, is the real obstacle TO peace
because the Allies have not Jointly
formulated war aims, says In effect
that no hope can be drawn from the
Chsncellor's speech. The Allied de-
mocracies, II says, will not leave Rus
sia TO German domination but will
defeat 1t and overthrow PRUSSIA n
militarism by application OF the prin-
clplcs which President Wilson has
laid down for the establishment and
governance OF the future"
The Daily Chronicle says:
Inconsistency between words and
deeds surely seldom has been carried
further than in the contrast between
Won Hertling's professions and the ac-
tions OF his governmsnt in Russia"
we are quite unable to believe the
Chancellor IL speaking the truth
says the Morning Post. What Ger
many does is alone worth considera
tion. what Germany says Is inter-
esting only as an essay in making the
worst appear the better reason"
The Daily Telegraph thinks the
speech reveals an attitude as essen
TALLY antagonistic to n peace which
the Entente oan accept as any OF hi:
previous statements.
"The speoiousness OF the spoeci
only makes its hypocrisy more con
spicuous and detestable," says th'
Daily Mail, which remarks incident
ally that the Chancellor's declaration
that Germany never thought OF as
sailing Swiss neutrality IS gravelS
ominous.
