u. S. FLOUR TO HUNGRY
EUROPE DEEMED WISE

II PORTLAND, Ore, March 13.-Jul-
ius Barnes, United States wheat di-
rector, has issued the statement re-
l garding the plan approved by~congress
which authorizes the United States
Grain Corporation to sell five million
barrels of flour on credit to the ma
tions of Central Europe which are
facing starvation.
The grain corporation for two
years has protected the presidential
wheat price guaranty by the pur-
chases of wheat and wheat flour at the
guarantee basis. In three years its
purchases on wheat and flour have
amounted to over seven hundred mil
lien bushels. 1t is probable that in
buying continuously at the guarantee
price in this manner it has saved the
farmers of the United states over one
billion dollars which they would have
lost had the price under the pressure
of crop movement sunk below the
guarantee.
Price Advance Checked.
Having thus protected the national
promise to the farmer, the grain cor
pei ton had no right to hoard such
purchases when prices advanced, and,
therefore, its. purchases of wheat and
flour were Immediately for sale at all
times, basis of cost plus accrued
charges, This policy of buying only
at the guarantee price prevented any
possibility of dealer, miller or spec
ulatcr resellng to the grain corpora
ton at advanced prices.
In these operations the grain cor
poratIon accumulated as far back as
last October a stock of flour exceed
ing five million barrels. For almost
six months it has tried to sell this
flour for cash basis of cost plus ac-
crued charges at home and abroad. 1t
has lust completed an extensive adver-
tising campaign in America which did
expand the use of soft winter flour
measurably, tut its sale in all direc-
tiors have not more than equalled tho
current purchases of flour which it
was obliged to make to prevent the
farmer price sinking below the ma
tional guarantee.
Have 5,0OO.OO Barrels.
The wheat crop last year was pecu-
LARA rather large yield of soft win
ter wheat and a small yield of strong
spring wheat. The strong wheats are
required to make certain qualities of
flour which have been popular in
! America and that character of wheat
has sold by supply and demand far
above the guarantee and necessarily
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1920-03-13

that quality of flour far above the
price asked for. OF the soft winter
flours, broadly speaking, there has not
been a day when the flour consum-
ers of the United States could not buy
some chara cter of standard flour at
the equivalent of the guarantee wheat
price even though special qualities of
flour were at the same time selling
far above. There is ND reason why
our people should not exercise a pref
erence in that way if they wish to but
they must be prepared to pay for their
preference for premium flours when
natures yields are SO erratic.
Now we are approaching warm
weather with over five million barrels
of flour in the hands of the grain cor
poration bought on the guarantee ba-
sis. We have exhausted our efforts
to sell this flour for cash at home and
abroad. l have told the house rules
committee that under the obligations
imposed on me by the wheat guaranty
act. L must use the authority to sell
for credit when sales for cash are not
possible. Markets abroad needing
this flour are those of nations that are
stripped of money, but whose credit
resting on their national character
and national resources will, undoubt-
edly. be redeemed in time. In con-
ference, therefore, with the treasury
and state departments, The grain cor
poration will work out the method of
delivering this flour to these needy
sections abroad and accepting their
obligations for it"

Newport, R. L. June 11-Thei course for today's cup trial instead of being an expected triangular one, was another windward and leeward affair. with the mark fourteen miles southwest, half west, the same as on June 3. when Res olute won. The breeze was not much over six knots as the yachts manoeuvred for position.
 Notwithstanding the handicap of a broken topmast. which went over side a mile and one-half from the Snish. Res olute won by 57 seconds corrected time.
 The Herreshoff yacht won the honors at the start when her skipper berthed her to windward of Vanitie. She reach ed the outer mark % seconds in the lead on the run into the finish both yachts beat to leeward and were within two miles of Beavertail Light when they jib- ed around and headed for the lightship.
 As Resolute's big mainstarl went over the stern, the topmast snapped off above the head of the mast, and came down with the big club topsail. The Resolute was 1-2 miles from the finish and con- tinued with Vanitie under lee. A spare topsail for Resolute was ready for step ping.

Disease and Distress
 in Soviet Russia
Reported by British Delegates Who Have Just Returned From an Investigation.

London, June 1.-The first report of the British delegates who have just re- turned from an investigation of condi- tions in Soviet Russia was made pub lie this evening"
 The delegates declare themselves deep ly impressed with the distress and dis Organization which they found in Russia the dejection of the people and the ex- tent of the governments interference with individual liberty. The report is said to be unanimous.
 The report describes the blockade as injurious to the world and disastrous to Russia and makes reference to the epi- demic of diseases to which the absence
 of soap and medical supplies has given full sway, although great efforts have been made toward sanitation. Denounc- ing the Polish war, the report says: "The appeal for creative work is be- ing once more set aside in favor of an appeal to military enthusiasts, while the war conditions provide new pretexts for restricting individual liberty and pre- venting freedom of discussion"
 The report says war rallies all parties to the defense of the country; it empha- sizes the breakdown in manufactures through lack of raw material and advo- cates the immediate recognition of Rus sia.
 The report was brought to England by Benjamin Turner and Tom Shaw, mem
