Prompt Action on Bill in Senate
Seems Out of Question.
By United Net5s
WASHINGTC

By United Net1s
WASHINGTON, Dec. Prompt
action by the Senate on the Admins
tration ship subsidy bill now seems
out of the question in view of Presi-
dent Harding's letter to Senator Jones,
chairman of the Senate Commerce
Committee.
Certain Senators, on the Republican
as we'll as the Democratic side of the
aisle, even venture the prediction that
this letter may result in the death of
the bill. They see in Harding's "over-
anxiousness" to have the bill passed
with the radical House amendments
stricken out, a repetition Of former
President Wilson's sohcitiousness over
the dotting OF an "I'' and the cross
ing of a "T" during the Versailles
treaty fight.
Even Senator Willis, Harding's sue
cessor in the Senate and personal
friend, is reported as opposed to strik-
ing out the Madden amendment,
which would compel the shipping
board to go to Congress annually for
subsidy money.

WHEAT PRODUCTION
NOT KEEPING PACE
WITH CONSUMPTION
City Dwellcrs Eat More Bread Per
Capita Than Country Residents.

Washington.-An outstanding fact
facing the American wheat farmer,
says the annual yearbook Of the de-
partment Of agriculture, is that while
the per capita consumption of wheat
in this country has steadily increased,
there has been q gradual decrease in
per capita production. This tendency
probably will contnue, it is added, at
least until the United States reaches
the point where it consumes prac-
tically all of the wheat it produces.
The economic situation Of the
wheat CROP, production and market
ing. from seeding to international
trade, is presented in the yearbook.
The discussion is. the result of COM
bined research ana study by a number
Of the nations leading agronomists
and agricultural economists connected
with the department. .
the farmers In the United States grow
wheat. Only corn and hay exceed
this bread crop In acreage occupied
and normally only these two crops
and cotton exceed wheat in value.
The wheat crop as a whole has much
to do with the prosperity Of the na-
ton. says the yearbook, because the
grain enters into foreign trade to q
greater extent than my other crop
except cotton.
Exports Decrease.
The country has exported a surplus
of wheat in every year Of its history
except 1886, besides keeping, pace
with an ever-increasing demand at
home. During the past 20 years,
however, the yearbook states, the
volume of exports has decreased ex-
cept under the artificial stimulation
OF the recent war. ,. ).
Because Of improvements. in milling
processes which make bread more
attractive, increasing prosperity, and
the increasing proportion of the
opulation in the cities, the p%er'capita
consumption Of wheat has increased
in the United States for the past 80
years.
=. Cities Use Moro Bread.
City jewellers eat more bread, per
capita, than country residents, be-
cause Of the lack of gardens in cities.
the comparative cheapness Of bread
and because no home cooking is nee
essary. The fact that the trend OF
population is toward cities should
have much bearing on the future CON-
sumption Of bread, it is stated.
Before 1850 the per capita ION.
sumption of wheat in this country
was 3.S bushels; from 1875 to 1884
ut was 40 bushels, inc from 1895 to
1914, Sc bushels. The rising trend
was interrupted by the world war, but
department officials believe it has
been resumed.
If the nation is to increase it's
bread ration to any great extent it
must grow more wheat or import it..
the department says. j.
