progress which has been made on
the construction of bridges and
roads of the Overseas Highway
during the past several weeks, as
compared to the disappointingly
slow work reported previously.
In the opinion of those who
have kept in close touch with the
work and have been associated
with the projects as an engineer
of the District, or as an engineer
observer. there is every possibility
of the work being concluded
within the scheduled time, pro-
vided there is no unusual weather
conditions to act as an obstacle.
The Citizen was a member of
a group which left Saturday aft
ernoon, made a tour or all the
projects, either riding in cars,
automobiles, trucks, and for a
distance of about two miles walk
ing over the line. Every phase
of the work was gone into, and
an approximately correct summary
of the accomplishments on each
project, either road or bridge,
was secured.
In the group making the trip
were three members Of the Over

United Press Staff CorreSpondent)
 Washington, (UP)-Wheat prices probably will rise somewhat during the next few months, but corn prices may go sharply lower as harvesting begins, government econ- omists predict.
 The largest grain crops in sev- eral years probably will give the United States an important place in the world wheat markets and curtail imports of corn and other grains, principally from the Arr genuine, 1t was said.
 Predicted higher wheat prices, 1t was explained, are based on pros- pective strengthening of world markets and expectations of a small world production, together with Q pickup in European pur- chases of American wheat.
 World wheat supplies, outside of Soviet Russian and China, "now ap- pear likely to be about the same as last year." the Bureau of Agricul- tural Economies of the Depart ment of Agriculture said.
 Upward Revision
 World wheat production, exclud- ing Soviet Russia and China, was estimated at 3,777,000,000 bushels, an increase 10 240,000000 bushels over last year. World production estimates have been revised up- ward 27,000,0o bushels since July l and estimates of carry-over stocks boosted 15,000,000 bushels.
 Smaller Northern Hemisphere crops of wheat this year in Can ada and Asia were more than off, set by larger yields in the United States, Europe and Africa, the bureau said.
 A United States crop of 890,00o,- 900 bushels, will leave approxi. mately 200,000000 bushels above domestic requirements of 165 1000 bushels will sharply reduce that country's exportable surplus.
 European Production
 European production was esti- mated at l,4e3 100000 bushels, an increase of 60,000,000 over last year. The smaller crops in Ger many, Yugoslavia, Hungary and Poland are more than offset by increases in France, Spain, 1taiy and Greece, the bureau said.
 On the basis of weather condi. tions, e production of only abo,;t 2l0 10000 bushels is indicated for Argentina, which is about 40,000,- 900 bushels less than last year, and about 140,000000 bushels for Australia, which is about l0,000,- 900 bushels less than last year.
 Tn view of the active demand for corn and with present stocks of old corn at record 10 wlevels, only moderate downward adjust ments fin cash corn prices seem

PECK POWER NOT
FEASIBLE, REPORT

DEVELOPMENT of hydroelectric
power at Fort Peck has received an
u%nfavorable report from the war
Department, it has been learned
here.
A report from the division engin-
eer has been received by Hans +.
Madsen. who was one of a delega-
ton at Glasgow several months ago
from here to attend a hearing on the
matter.
The principal grounds upon
which the adverse conclusion is
based are that neither the present
market for the potential output nor
that. probable development in the
near future are sufficient to yield an
annual monetary return which will
support the annual financial require
ments of a power installation at Fort
Peck.
The report is not unfavorable'
however, to improvement at such
times as responsible interests, prop
arly organized, can definitely assure
the availability of a suitable mar
ket, as defined in the report, within
4 reasonable time.

country, sighted for many years,
received a ~drenching.
While Westby was getting more
Ian two inches, P. c. Peterson, liv-
ing eight miles southwest, reported
not more than a half-inch at his
farm, showing the rain lessened rap
.dly as it travelled eastward.
The rain came of course too late
to be of any material benefit.
Tuesdays rain seemed to center
over about the same area as that OF
Sunday, in the Homestead and Med
line Lake region and east to the
Dakota line.
Beginning about nine O'Clock In
the morning, rain fell steadily al
these points for four hours. People
irving in from the south about
noon reported water flowing over
the highway at two different points
between the Lake and FTOid.
AS the water poured into bitches
from the higher land east of the
highway, much OF the broad Muddy
valley was inundated, some culvertf

graded side roads was made peril
GUS by the amount of water flowing
across them at several points.
