This Changing World
Distribution System Is Seen at Fault
With Europe Showing Food Surplus

Iernments have not allotted enough
money for the payment Of the i'm
ports.
Does that mean that the United
States Is not providing sufficient
funds for the operation of the
Western Germany economy? Does
10 mean that Western Germany Is
not exporting enough manufac-
tured goods to permit 1t TO take all
of the Netherlands surplus? Or
does 1t mean that there Is some
deep underlying maladjustment In
world trade which prevents food
deficit areas from acquiring the
surpluses of excess food pro-
ducers?
Dates Back TO 1918.
Certainly the last Is true. There
Is a deep-seated reimbursement In
the worlds foreign trade which
goes back not only to World War
II. but to World War I. This NAL
adjustment Is not difficult to un-
derstand. It is simply the inability
of some countries to import more
from any one country than they
actually can pay for with their ex-
ports. In other words. triangular
and multilateral trade-which is
the antithesis of bilateralism-has
not been revived yet and is max
ing small progress toward that
end.
1t is also certainly true that
Western Germany has not yet be-
gun to export enough manufac-
tured goods to permit 1t to buy
and pay for all the food 1t re-
quires from the outside world.
Greater progress has been made
toward self-support of Western
Germany than toward the liber-
alton Of world trade. But much
more progress viii be necessary
before Western Germany, as an
industrial producer. can satisfy
its food and raw material needs
abroad and pay for them with its
exports.
AS for the adequacy of Ameri-
can support money for Western
Germany. 1t Is apparent that II
the two previously mentioned
points were taken care Of, there
would be no need at all for the
United States to meet any of West
ern Germany's needs. It is not
incumbent on this country to sup
port Western Germany indefi-
nitely, although we do bear a bur-
den Of responsibility for finding
a solution to existing trade Diff
f1culties.

than the continents crippled dis
tribution system can take care Oh.
This snarled-up distribution sys-
tenn LIS evidenced by the recent
disclosure that the Dutch have
to dump 900 tons Of vegetables
a day because they cannot export
to Western Germany. which has
always been the Netherlands CHIEF
export market for food.
In brief. the facts are these:
Under the Dutch trade treaty with
the British zones OF
Germany, $3,500.o0o was allotted
to the Netherlands as the quota
for German imports OF Dutch food
from April / to July 80.
Quota Exhausted
Last week this quota ran out.
nearly two months before the ex-
piration of the quota period. This
is to say, there are no more dol
lars-the treaty was in terms OF
American currency-available In
Western Germany to pay for i'm
ports of Dutch food. The Dutch
could continue to export to West
ern Germany, but it would be on
a gift basis. since the Western
German administration could not
provide the foreign exchange to
pay for the food.
Dutch producers, faced with the
loss of this longtime market. tried
to dispose of their goods in the
open market, but the offerings
failed to bring the minimum prices
at auctions. Consequently, no
sales are made and the food Is
dumped. The export value OF the
food now going to waste is esti-
mated unofficially at 100000 q
week.
What Is the explanation for all
this, and what Is the cure? Ger
tainly with Western Germany the
heavy burden 1t Is on the Amer
lean taxpayer, 1t is incumbent on
our statesmen to seek some way
out of this dilemma. The Dutch
have food available, but the West
ern Germans cannot get it because

these suggestions:
Be sure you know the proper way
to cover an infant. Don't give a baby
a pillow. Keep toys out of the crib,
and beware of stuffed animals with
button eyes and nose. The Stats of a
crib should be close enough together
so that a baby cannot work his head
between them. And never take a
baby to sleep in bed with you.
Eliminate things that might
