harvest, which promises to be
one Of the poorest on record.
Most areas were hard hit by
drought.
In the Ukraine and the
Virgin Lands Of Central Asia,
soon after spring sowing, late
frosts nipped the tender shoots
and wide areas had to be re-
sown. Spring was kinder to the
North Caucasus.
But summer was a scorcher
almost everywhere. In July and
August soaring winds from the
Cobb Desert blew across the
Virgin Lands, sweeping up the
dry topsoil into svirling dust
bowls.
Heavy rains hit the area late
In August. delaying harvesting

seasonal snow blanketed the
fields.
whereas In the past bad
weather in one region was usu-
ally compensated by good con-
ditions elsewhere, this year al
most every part of the Soviet
Union was hit in the bread
basket.
20 Per Cent Drop Seen
Observers estimate this
years harvest will be at least
20 per cent below last years.
This accounts for heavy Soviet
purchases Of Canadian and
Australian wheat and a readi-
ness to bid for a slice Of the
United States surplus.
Purchases so far, large as
they seem-around z million
long tons Of wheat and SIS, 900
long tons Of flour-are small
compared to last years Soviet
harvest: 1855 million long tons
of grain. including 70.6 long
tons Of wheat. They are mainly
intended to cover commit
ments to Cuba, Czechoslovakia
and Poland, which would nor
mally be met by Soviet exports.
The most battling element in
the overall picture is the pres
ent shortage. Even in Moscow
the sale Of bread has been lin
tied to two loaves per custom
er-ostensibly to discourage
boarding and the feeding of
bread to livestock. Flour, ma
caroni and cereals have practi-
C ALLY disappeared from the
shelves.
Outside Of such favore d
areas as the capital and other
major cities, the situation is
more stringent.
But last years harvest was
good and there should still be
ample grain available for home
consumption. This suggests the
government may be building ur
its grain reserves, figures or
which have never been re.
leased. or is insuring itseI
against this years poor har
vest.
Another possible explanation
is a distribution bottleneck o,
breakdown in the milling proc.

Where was a
saying in old Russia that one
good harvest could compensate
for 10 years Of misgoVernment:
A crop failure often spelle d
famine. This Is no longer the
case today. Nevertheless, for all
the giant industrial strides of
recent years, living standards
in the Soviet Union are still
closely geared to agriculture.
To most Americans bread is
something that comes from the
b a kerry or supermarket. The
prior stages Of the process are
of interest only to those direct
| ly involved.
But in Russian the word for
bread, "khleb", means both the
finished product and the grain
in the field.
At the time Of year when
Americans are engrossed in the
World Series, Russians no less
intently follow operations on
the harvest front" reported by
the press and radio in the ter
minology Of military communi-
ques. under such headings as
Victory in KroSnodar."
The commander-in-chief Of
these campaigns is Nikita S.
Khrushchev.. who for all his
diversified interests and
responsibilities, still looks upon
agriculture as his first love.
And nothing warns his heart
like a tall field of ripening
corn.
No Desk General
No desk general, Premier
Khrushchev personally sallies
forth into the field, bouncing
from one sector of the front"
to another. acting as his own
trouble-shooter, scolding, cajol-
ing, praising, even baby kissing
on occasion. and constantly
dishing out homilies and ad-
vice, which his listeners are
well-advised to heed. For
amidst all the grass-roots folks
mess nobody forgets who is
boss.
Thus on his most recent tour
OF inspection, Mr.. Khrushchev
just happened to mention that
on his recent trip to Yugoslavia
he had been impressed by the
way Yugoslavs had improved
their wheat yields by using
mineral fertilizers.
This seemingly off-the-cuff
remark was enough to crank
up a. nationwide crash pro-
gram for additional mineral
fertilizer. The Komosomol
(Young Communist League)
announced monthly contests Of
young building workers, with
red banners and cash prizes, to
push construction of new min
eral fertilizer plants.
simultaneously every re.
gional economic council set III

stitutes the fifth consecutive
year Of setbacks. ever since the
bumper harvest Of 1858. This
must cause Soviet planners 70
doubt whether the pouring Of
capital and effort into these
marginal lands ever viii pay
off.
The lessons Of the current
harvest are likely to speed the
trend away from collective
farms to state farms. Soviet
planners are coming to believe
that the collective farm system.
with its lack of adequate incen-
tives, is inherently inefficient.
Politically InadmiSsible
Not that they see a return to
individual farming. Though
that would solve the food prob
lem. it would be politically in
admissible. But on the state
farm regular cash wages re-
place the uncertain "workday"
compensation in kind. whereby
the farmer sometimes ended up
almost empty-hsnded.
Experience has shown that
large state farms. organized on
an industrial basis, lend them
selves more readily to mechanic
cation and scientific methods,
including the proper use Of
mineral fertilizers.
In the long run the success
Of the state farms will hinge
not only on cash wages but on
the availability Of decent hous-
ing, social amenities and con-
sumner goods.
The supply gap between city
and country has long been a
major imbalance Of Soviet econ
omy.
To correct the situation al
most 20 years ago Mr.. Khru-
shchev proposed the setting up
lof "Agrogorods" - urbanized
farming communities with
modern housing, civic and
shopping centers, clubs, thea
tiers and schools. Stain
shrugged the idea off as utopi-
an and slapped down its spon-
sor.
Try New System
Currently the "Agrogorod"
system is being tried out in
several places. including Mr..
Khurshchev's native village Of
Kalinovka. When the village

weather is oddly at variance

agriculture. The year 1880 was
also the target date for free
bread for everyone.

phases. However, it now is
planned to extend the dredg-
ing work as part of the first
phase and enlarge the harbor
to almost its full potential.
This will result in an increase
of expenditures for phase one.
However it will make possible
a long-range saving Of APP
p%roximately $3.50, 100000 on the
complete job. This saving will
be made by employing the
equipment already here, thus
eliminating the necessity Of
again bringing dredge, barges
and pipelines from the States.
Back in 1886" Commission
er Huston said "the original
survey Of the harbor was
made. When another survey
was made last June, it was
found that the depths were
practically identical with the
1886 condition. During the n
years, on shoaling such as is
usually found in other har-
bors had occurred"
History Of the harbor i'm
provement project goes back
to the early thirties when the
army corps Of engineers made
an exhaustive Investigation Of
the then current needs and
projected future requirements.
In a report published in 1885,
it was recommended that a
project almost identical with
the present one be undertaken.
The original project was au-
thorized by Congress that year
and funds were appropriated
in the late 194O's. However
these funds were frozen due
to the Korean war. Despite
vigorous efforts Of the Ad-
ministration and the Leglsla.

ture, reinstatement of the
Federal appropriation could
not be obtained.
This year, the islands Gov
eminent decided to go ahead
with the harbor Improvement
on its own. With appropria-
tions totalling two million dol
lars by the Legislature $780,
900 was allocated to the New
York firm of Praeger-K avan-
agh for completed design and
inspection. An open end con-
tract with an estimated cost
of $780, 40 later was award
ed to the Mcnamara Company
in February. Dredging was
sub contracted to the standard
dredging company of New
York. A hydraulic dredge
capable Of removing 1000
cubic yards per hour and
pumping it $500 feet to the
reclamation area in Crown
Bay was brought here from
the States along with the
other necessary equipment.
In a press release announc-
ing award Of contract, Com
missioner Huston at that time
said, "plans are now being
made for extensions Of the
