London Halls It as First World Wide Recovery United States Helped It Along
By HERBERT MOORE

United Press Stan COrreSpOndent)
 London. Aug 26-(UP)-A world agreement to limit wheat export, signed and awaiting ratification of parliaments of some subscribing countries, was hailed today as the first worldwide recovery act, cal- culated to lead the way to general economic recovery.
 The agreement, child of the abortitve world economic confeer- ence at London, is designed to in- sure fair prices to formers for their wheat and, through a two-year agreement to limit exports, elimi- nate the present world surplus of 440,000,000 bushels.
 It binds the exporting nations the Unted States, Canada, Aus tralia and Argentina and Russia, along with the smaller Danubian nations-to export not more than 560,000,000 bushels in the 1933-34 crop year In the 1934-1935 crop year they would reduce this by IS per cent through decreased pro- duction or otherwise.
 Provision is made for increasing the export figure in event condi- tions change.
 The importing nations agreed in return not to encourage increase of wheat acreage during the agree ment period, and to seek of their parliaments lower wheat tariffs period of four months has reached or exceeded 63.02 gold cents a bushel, equivalent to 84 cents as the dollar is valued now in foreign exchange.
 Russia's share of the export quota remains to be worked out and Turkey, Portugal, Esthonia. Denmark, Latvia, Finland, Hol- land and Lithuania didn0 t sign for the, present. Others nations made reservations regarding tar- ifs, to the effect that consent and action lay with their parliaments.
 Washington. Aug 26-(UP)-A formal announcement today by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace was expected to speed an interna- tionaI wheat acreage reductionI program to return prosperity to grain farmers on the four cornera of the earth.
 Wallace, credited with bringing conference through threats of U. s. surpluses, intends to ask United States wheat farmers to rec duce their crops by 15 per cent. the reduction which will go into effect throughout the world.
 The history making undertaking the government hopes, will go far to reduce tho 640,000,000 bushel world surplus of wheat. For their part in the program, farmers in this country will receive about $125,000,000 in government bon uses. The money will come from a processing tax of 30 cents a cush- ell on domestic wheat.
