WHEAT BINS ARE EMPTY
Kansas City Elevators Feel Lack OF
Cars A1aO

With wheat bins in Kansas City
ell vators practically empty and
wheat arrivals inadequate to meet
the demand for shipments to other
markets and for export. the freight
car shortage is clearly reflected there.
Slightly less than 2,OOO,OOO bush
els are now stored in Kansas City
elevators which have a capacity of
between fifteen and twenty million
bushels. A year ago the supply
was nearly 100000. The amount
In storage here has increased only a
few thousand bushels since the har-
vest.
A critical situation in business and
financial circles was Predicted by To-
cal grainmen unless the car situation
Is improved 1t will take twenty
eight months, at the present rate,
for the railroads to move wheat now
in Kansas. according to Judge Clyde
NJ. Reed Of the Kansas court Of in
relations, who is investigat-
ing the car shortage.
