WHEAT SHORTAGE
LOOMS ASEUROPE
BOOSTS DEMANDS
World Stocks Expected to
Reach Low Ebb of Sew
eral Years July 1.

The present moment the situation
indicates. says the Foodstuffs d.
vision OF the Department. OF Com
merce. that world wheat stocks will
be lower than for several years by
July /, 1922. as both Argentina and
Australia have considerably less
than last year. the United States
carry-over will be light and only
Canada has considerable stocks on
hand. The upward trend OF Euro
pean consumption indicates a larger
demand than last year, whereas
prospects are for a smaller crop. In
III next February the international
trade Will be largely dependent for
supplies on the surplus of North
America and a limited quantity
from India. With Russia entirely
out OF the. export trade, North
American wheat is in a relatively
strong position.
The world wheat situation has
been going through very much the
same adjustment during the past
five years as other agricultural
products. especially wool and cot
ton. All three commodities de-
pended very largely in pre-wsr
years on Europe to absorb the world
surplus. During the war European
consumption and production fell 20
around three-qUsrters normal and
resulted in considerable accumula-
tion Of surpluses at the end OF hos
tilities. 1t was generally expected
in trade circles that the surplus
Oh
rope, but the reduced buying power
and the lower standard Of living
forced by war cond tions were not
fully considered. As a result. the
enormous surplus Of wool brought
a perpendicular drop in the spring
OF 1920. followed soon by cotton.
and in July. 1890. by wheat. The -.-
covery Of wool has been very grad
ual owing to continued production.
but is again verp near normal
The great reduction in cotton
consumption during the past
years has also been accompanied
by reduced production, although a
very large surplus was carried over
last year. Inceased consumption
during the past year has absorbed
a large part Of this. so that world
supplies should be reduced to about
normal by August ! OF this year
The wheat situation was con
sidered during the war TO be OF first
innortance. There would. no doubt.
have been a serious world shortage
during the war had II not been

from 1918 TO 1915. creating a large
reserve which helped 70 carry over

tion in the two following year~.

pas: five years.
it IS probable that during tie
war period the world outside % Tg-

Europe fell from about 1000. COO nOl

FIFTEEN HOMES
SOLD This WEEK
Colored Purchasers Find
Scarcity of Moderately
Priced Houses.

The office of Joe c. Brown re-
ports the sale of fifteen homes to
colored purchasers in this city
since June 1.
Z Mr.. Brown states that since June
1, 1921. there has been sold through
his office nearly 200 homes to col
ored purchasers, the aggregate
sales amount being about $3.50, 900,
and that there were no foreclosure
sales in this entire amount of busi-
ness done. 1t Is reported that the
demand for homes for colored is
exceedingly great at this time. due
to the sarcity of moderate-priced
residences. Mr.. Brown has advo-
Gated the building of colored resi-
dences for some time. but it seems
that building activities are confined
to other lines.
The sales for the month are as

venetians East Foreign Rtc~
Although the veneuans annually
harvest thousands of tons OF rice
and are great lovers Of the grain,
they do not eat that which they
raise. but import immense quanti-
ties from India. Venetian-growI
rice. being of a superior quality
than that demanded locally, is sold
elsewhere in Italy and exported
overland TO France. England and
Germany. Now. Consul James B.
Young, Venice. advises the Depart
ment OF Commerce. IL is likely that
Venetian rice will become a thins
OF the past for the low marshy
lands along the Po River where
the excellent Venetian rice is grown
are gradually being reclaimed ano
production is decreasing every year.
In 1920 Venetia produced only =.
per cent of the aggregate Italian
crop.
Those who like garlic now need
have no cause for anxiety. for the
Royal School Of Agriculture al
Portici, near Naples, Italy, reports
that the garlic crop has suffered nc
damage from a severe. rainy spell.
Better than that is the information
just received by the Departmen
OF Commerce from american Consul
Byington. Naples. that the onior
and garlic acreage is not only nor
NAL. but that the harvest now TAX.
ing place is better than normal.
The gradual extinction of whale.
as a source of supply of OIL has
had much to do with the great
stimulation of China's exports of
vegetable oils. Although the world
war caused an abnormal demand
for vegetable oils, due to the short
age OF animal fats. demands are
now very nearly normal. and soya
bean. peanut. sesamum, cotton seed
and rapeseed oils have established
themselves as successors to whale
oil. The export Of vegetable oil is
second only to that of silk in China
according to a report to the De-
part Of Commerce by Charles A.
Robertson. of the American Consul
late at Shanghai. Indications are,
however, that Japan will prove a
formidable rival when North Man
churian oil beans find their way 10
Japan VIA Nladivostok. as Japan ab-
serbs great quantities Of soya beans
through Dairen which allows the
Dairen mills to compete.
Finland TO SubsidfEe Fishing.
The Finnish government Is think
ing seriously OF subsidizing the fsh-
ing industry Of that country. for.
according TO a report by Consul
Helsingfors to the Department of
Commerce, that industry in Fin
land has declined greatly during
the last few years owing to the
lack OF an export market and men
who have until lately followed the
piscatorial trad e. have turned to
other more lucrative pursuits
Finland promises to become an

U. S. LEATHER SOLD
ON ENGLISH MARKET
Germany Second Best Buyer
Of American Hide
Products.

The most important market for
American exports of goat and kid
upper leather during April was the
United Kingdom, according to a
survey by the hide and leather d.
vision OF the Department of Com
merce. The United Kingdom took
1.694,554 square feet. Germany
bought 26S.405 square feet: France.
21s.OO5 square feet; Canada. 212,527
square feet, and the rest was
small quantities.
The United Kingdom was also a
leading market for sole leather,
taking 6OO.93O pounds Japan pur-
chased 211.752 pounds of this
leather; China. 54.079 pounds: Nor
way, 2s.247 pounds: Newfoundland
and Labrador. 1854 pounds, and
Canada, 15.4s0 pounds. Exports for
April. 1922, to Greece. Norway.
Sweden. United Kingdom, New
foundland and Labrador Cuba.
China, Philippines and New Zealand
increased over those of April. 1921,
while those to Canada and Japan
showed a marked decline.
Total imports OF leather and
tanned skins during April were
valued at s7s6,951. a decline from
the March imports. valued at ST.
067.s67. This figure is also lower
than the value of the imports for
January and February. The only
item that registered an increase
was goat skins tanned which
amounted to 2S.926 pounds. valued
at s39,07S. as compared with POSTS
pounds. valued at s22,460 for March.
The total value of leather and

WASHINGTON, March - Reversing

tories instead Of Federal prisons in the
discretion OF the committing judge.
This change in the law. advocated by
many welfare societies. was accomp-
lished when senators were told il was
intended as a means of preventing
feminine arst offenders from beeom-
ing STEPPED in crime while serving cut
their sentences
Supporters Of the movement At first
desired that the women offenders be
sent to houses Of refuge. but Senator
Watson (D.). Of Georgia, so vigorously
opposed the suggestion that this feat
ure was eliminated from the measure.
Il was then decided that Uncle sum
saould do his reforming at State re-
fornatories, this feature being added
to the amendment on motion OF SEN
ator Harris CD. Of Georgia
Much debate was occasioned in the
senate prior TO adoption o. the amend

The amendment. however gained
sufficient support TO insure its passage
