1944-1945 wheat
ALLEGATION
ANNOUNCED

The War Food Administration said
today that 194445 supplies of wheat
in the United States, which will prob
ably exceed 1,5OO,0O0,0OO bushels,
should be sufficient not only to meet
all needs for fiscal year beginning
July /, but also should provide sub
stantial carryover as protection
against the possibility of shorter sup
plies in 1856. To enable fulfill
ment of these two-year needs, the
WA is allocating this years wheat
supply, even though the current do
nestle crop outlook for 1914 is the
best in history. July estimates in
dicated a harvest of 1,12S,O00,O 900
bushels, compared with S36,000,OOO
bushels in 1943 and 1874 average
of S58,000,00O bushels. The largest
previous harvest was in 1915 which
slightly exceeded 1000, 100000 bus.
By allocating supplies this year CT
apparent plenty, the VIA hopes to
conserve sufficient stocks to PROVIDE
a safeguard for another year. The
1914 wheat ALLEGATIONS represent
planned division of expected supplies
among United States civilians, the
United States military and other war
agencies, and among our allies,
friendly nations and liberated areas.
Wheat ALLEGATION this year is import
an tnot only from the standpoint of
wheat, but from overall grains supply.
Most grains, particularly corn, have
been in tight supply, and wheat has
been used considerably to replace Gus
tomary feed grains.
The supply and requirements pic
ture for the fiscal year beginning July
l shows that stocks on hand, expected
imports and estimated production,
will total 1925 to 1850 million bush
els, while requirements for the period
total about 100000 bushels, COM
pared with peacetime domestic disap-
pearance average 1992-4D of only
GIT 100000 bushels.

to vote.
If the elector shall place on the ballot
cross mark or "X' within the square con-

the column, he or she shall be deemed to
have voted for all the candidates whose
names appear in the column under such
mark, unless some name or names shall be
erased or unless in some other column *"
mark shall have been placed in the square
at the left of the name of some other can
didate for the same office.
When the voter shall have mark against

erase or scratch out the name printed i'll
any other column for the same office.
A ballot put in without any mark shall
not be counted, and a ballot not marked at
the top shall be counted only for the per-
son for whom the marks thereon are APP
plicable.

James A. Farley Resigns

Resignation of James A. Farley as chairman of the Democratic State Con- mittee of New York does not come as a particular surprise in view of the mans background of integrity of opinion and reputation for straightforward promises.
 He has never concealed his opposi- tion to the renomination of President Roosevelt and it is generally known that he is even more opposed to the suggestion that MT. Roosevelt be the nominee for a fourth term as he, Farley, was opposed to the same suggestion for third term.
 He has never been a 100 percent New Dealer and 1t was such matters as the party purging and packing of the Supreme Court by the New Dealers that brought about his break with the Presi- dent. Since then he has been resolute opponent of subsequent renominationS.
 Always the faithful party man it is known that he felt in the power shown by the President that the party was becom- ing secondary to a man. This was Farley who believed first and last in the party AS proof of what he knew of party politics he predicted at the time of President RooSevelts second election that the President would take every state except Vermont and Maine. This sub- sequently proved true and was vivid proof of the fine art that was Jim Far ley's as party organizer.
 It is hard to say if he would permit his name to be placed in opposition to Presi- dent Roosevelt's at the convention. This is still not the year for the old guard of the party to again take over and the former party chairman knows that bet ter than any of them.
