QUOTAS FOR WHEAT

Export Limits Generally Unsatis-

Doubt Revision.

LONDON, November 25-The belief
that international wheat export quotas
set by leading producers last Summer
are definitely fixed and will undergo no
change at meetings next week of the
World Wheat Advisory Committee was
expressed tonight in American delega-
ton quarters.
"Of course. nobody IS satisfied" said
one American. The United States GER
tainly is no more pleased than any
other nation, with 200,00O,00O bushels
of wheat on hand and an export limit
of only 100000 bushels. but sacri-
fees must be made all around
Efforts will be renewed. 1t was inGi-
Gated to bring Soviet Russia into the
world agreement under which the pow

tive figure for wheat exports.

These changes were seen as compli-
cations in the problem of holding down
exports and thereby maintaining GER

Consider Fight for State Con.
troll in Anger Over U. S.
Restrictions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Resentment over the Administrations
policy for strict Federal control of
liquor after repeal caused distillers and
brewers yesterday to discuss starting a
Nationwide campaign to return the
question of regulation to the States.
The talk revolved around creation Of
an organization similar to the Associa-
ton Against the Prohibition Amend
ment. which was a leading unit in the
fight for repeal.
The new set-up, II created, would
have as its purpose advocacy Of State
control Of all phases Of the liquor busi-
ness instead of supervision from Wash
ington.
Under codes proposed by the Govern
ment for distillers. brewers, importers,
rectifiers and venders, Federal Alcohol
Control Administration appointed by
President Roosevelt from five high Gov
ernment officials would regulate prices,
production and importation.
Distillers Oppose Plan.
This plan was fought unsuccessfully
by the distillers at hearings on their
code and marketing agreement which
were concluded yesterday.
The liquor manufacturers were told
frankly by the Presidents Special Alco-
hol Control Committee that the admin
istration intended to continue Federal
control of liquor under the code policy
until Congress could enact legislation
looking to permanent control policy
There was some discussion among the
manufacturers about having the Asso-
citation Against the Prohibition Amend
ment start a Nationwide campaign for
State regulation. Jouett Shouse. pres
ident, of the association, when ques-
toned, said the future Of his associa-
ton was to be decided within a few
weeks by the board of directors. He
said there was some talk about the reg
ulation move, but said plans were nebu-
lous.
Amendment Forecast.
In a second effort to get the distillers
to approve the Government-propos
code. the Presidents Committee met
with a representative group Of eight
from the industry. One member OF the
Government Committee said the code
limiting production to distilleries In
operation on the date of repeal-De-
cember 5-undoubtedly would be
amended to include distilleries under
construction and contracted for by that
date.
However, it was indicated the Presi-
dents Committee would reject the dis
tillers' proposal for a code authority
created by 1t to supervise the industry
The Governmental marketing
agreement for distillers was laid aside
temporarily because Of the split be-
tween grain and molasses alcohol
manufacturers over a provision that
whisky and alcohol for blending pur-
poses must be made from American
grain.

dent Roosevelt wanted codes for all
