Stalin says USSR cannot add to UNRRA grain supplies
Stalin told Soviet papers and radio that the Soviet Union is doing all it can to feed the hungry world and cannot increase UNRRA supplies now. He criticized President Truman for a late proposal to boost UNRRA grain, noting USSR has already arranged grain allocations and warns new resources may run out. The White House considers extending the 30 cent bonus wheat program beyond May 25 as cereal stocks remain short of export needs. current sales suggest about 70 million of the targeted 100 million bushels may be delivered by the bonus withdrawal date.
