with view TO securing q maximum
production in order to sustain the war.
1t should he treated AS war ex-
pense to be paid out OF the Treasury and
thus distributed as other war expenses
and losses, including those on contracts
for munitions and other war materials,

The Food Administration estimates
that this loss will amount to 1880. 0O0.-
600. | assume that estimate is based on
contemplated loss Of 81 bushe on
larger crop than the average This
would be on the assumption that the
world market price for wheat viii drop

the drop will not be so great In the
first place, Russia formerly produced
about one-ffth OF the total wheat crop
OF tho world and exported one-ff,h OF
the total amount exported Russias pro-
ductlon and exports have been greatly
reduced.
1T is reasonable to assume that tho
production of wheat in Europe generally

reasonable to assume that the per capita
consumption Of wheat in Europe will
generally be in excess OF normal because
of the shortage OF meat These facts

US. BILL TO REDUCE
THE COST OF WHEAT
Continued from First Poor.

printed this morning In THE SrN Repre-
sentative Anderson said There is but
one fundamental remedy for the situa-
ton that is increased production OF all
farm products. The enormous crop of
wheat which is now IN prospect is not
going to help much II there is cor
responding reduction in other farm prod
uCtS.
Losses incident to the guaranteed
price on wheat must be met In one OF
two ways: Either by maintaining the
price of -four and wheat so as to inn
pose the burden on the consumer OF
wheat and wheat products or by making
good the guarantee TO the farmer on.
