Wheat Output Goal
For 81 Would Cover
Spread Of Korean War
By Malcolm Lomborne, Jr.

By Molcolm lomborne, Jr.
At least one Government agency
today appeared to be planning for
the possibility of a spread Of the
Korean war beyond just police
action.
This was the Interpretation
given an announcement late yes
terday by Secretary Of Agriculture
Brannan setting the 1851 wheat
production goal at 1,15O,0O0. 900
bushels.
This total would be 193, ,414,0 900
bushels above the indicated pro-
duction for this year and 119 mil
lion bushels more than the 1939-48
average.
Acreage Increased.
The stepped-up production
would be grown on 72,800, 900
acres, the Secretary estimated.
This planting allotment is from
S to Z million acres more than
was forecast by the grain trade
before the outbreak Of war in
Korea.
While Mr.. Brannan made no
mention of the war, he stated that
1t was essential" for the United
States to be ION the safe side" I"
He added:
GAS usual, we would rather
have a little more wheat than may
be needed than to be caught with
any supply shortage at any time.
We are in q very sound position
with regard to wheat now and we
want to stay that way"
Export Allotment Up.
In 1851 production goal assumes
at least $50 million bushels from
the next crop for export, COM
pared with S25 million bushels
estimated for export from the 1850
crop.
It also assumes as much as 225
million bushels for livestock feed
as against about 100 million
bushels Of this years crop.
