of Europe before the ue* crop cun
reach the market. Herbert Hoovet
wired Texas Friday concerning the
wheat crisis as follows
“The food adininistration estimate-
of the position on the first of June
indicates a total available supply un
til the new harvest, including the
grain which will be available from
the farms of the country and terminal
elevators and mill elevators of about
5fi,0i)(t,0U0 bushels. Of this 30,000,-
1100 bushels must be exported before
new wheat is available for export if
we are to maintain tlie absolutely
necessary shipments to our army .mi
the allies. That leaves about 20,00,
liiHl Imshels for domestic consumption
for tlie next two months.
“The normal American
Hou is something over
bushels a month so that
liberal consumption at
only be one third of normal
“In addition to the wheal
farms and elevators there is always
an Interdeterminate further amount
in transit and in dealers' hand and
tliis can never be reckoned in with
the flour available for use for export
and use at home. As a matter of
fact, this stock is not actually avail
able since these supplies must re
main eonsGinlly in How they remain
a permanent stock tlie removal of
which would cause a period t,f actual
shortage in distribution before uca
wheal would be available
’’There is further an Inclination to
include new crop prospects with
present conditions which ha; led to
confusion. The harvest will not be
generally available in flour until the
middle of August and early St ptein
her. although in the extreme South
it will be somewhat earlier
“At a meeting of the federal food
administrators in AVashington on
May 20, representing all I- State-
it was tlie unanimous view that even
if the harvest does prove abundant
it will be the first duty of the Ameri-
can people to place every grain they
can save into storage ns amiinst pox
sihle bad years ahead. In conse-
quence there should lie no anticipa
HOU of unlimited wheat broad until
the war is over.
"Some of the most inconveniont
restrictions can no doubt bo modi
fled with the arrival of a large har-
vest. but if wo are honest with our-
solves we will maintai nrestrietions
requiring the use of some substitutes
both domestic and commercial; we
will continue the requirement of hii'Ji
milling extraction and the elimina-
tion of the noneasential use of the
waste in flour and bread
“It is worth rememberin'', that tho
famine in Egypt 800 years ago was
saved by a little governmental fore-
sight and it does not require anv il-
luminating dream to tinticipnte that
so long as the war lasts with its in-
creasing drafts for soldiers and mu-
nition workers the world will stead-
ily produce loss food. If we are wise
•1 -rent harvest will mean tho willing
building up of n great national re-
serve. "Herbert Hoover.”
Asked regarding government re-
strictions on Hie importation of rub-
ber, and the endeavor of tire manu-
facturers in co-operation with the
government to restrict tlie manufae
lure of unnecessary tire sizes, Mr. .1
C. AA’eston, vice president and direc-
tor of sales of the United States Tire
Company, said:
The intention of the government
in the control and restriction of the
Importation of rubber Is to conserve
shipping space, ami the program that
I.-, loon laid before the manufaetut
ers of rubber goods has won their
unanimous support for tho war trade
board ami tlie shipping hoard.
“In addition, the manufaeturers of
tires are heartily co-operating with ■
tlie government program for the
eventual elimination of unnecessary
tire sizes, This elimination will sim
plify the problem for each user of
tlie motor car of redtieini'. his cost

who need those particular sizes at

\lr AA’eston was very in intent In
1 hi statement that there Is nothing
ill the present or probable future sit
nation to occasion the
I prehension of a
legitimate use.
"However, there m viT was a time."
I he said; “when users of motor cats

making the most of their cars in 1o-
itimate commercial and passenger
1 rvice and refualng to hoard or un-
tior’e-s.irily anticipate their needs in
tire, or other motor car su|i|»lies.”
Mr AVe ton called attention to the
fact that the government has not at
ho present time imposed anv restric-
tions on the use of motor cars by the
antomoblllsts of the country, but has
