u. S. Grain Corporation
Not Certain to Buy the
Wheat Crop Of 1919

The presidents proclama ton Of
February 2lI 1918. fixing guaranteed
prices for the 1918 wheat crop ap-
plies to wheat Harvested in the
United States during the year 1918
and offered for sale before the first
day of June, 1919, to such agent or
employe of the United States. or
other person as may be hereafter
designated" at the principal primary
markets specified, according to
Charles T. Neale, second vice presi-
dent of the food administration
grain corporation.
The food administration grain
corporation was designated June p,
1918, to purchase the 1918 wheat
crop and will therefore continue to
exercise that duty and obligation
even though peace should be signed
prior to June |, 1919. The food con-
troll act provides that termination of
the act shall not affect any obliga-
ton accrued or accruing during its
existence and the purchase of r the
1918 wheat crop is such an obliga-
ton.
The presidents proclamation of
September 2, 1918, establishing
guaranteed prices for the 1919 wheat
crop applies to wheat harvested in
the United States during 1919 and
offered for sale before June /, 1920
Thus, although the guarantee for
the 1919 wheat crop will continue
until June |, 1920, there is no present
assurance it will be purchased or
handled by the food administration
grain corporation

Atlantic City, N. J., Dec. 4-"If

Beware of the temptation hastily tc

Secretary of Commerce William C.

We have got to feed the world for
a while and it is going to take ships
to carry the food. We must supply
the world with much equipment and
raw material and that is going to
take ships 70 carry them. We have
got to keep a large army-large as
we call armies-on the other side
for some time to come, and they
will have to be fed and furnished
with supplies. We do not know
what is behind the Russian veil. A

"Soberly looking at it, | think that

Let we say to you with entire
frankness that we are in a certain
sense at a commercial parting of the

racy in commerce would prompt us
