U. S. Wheat Boosts Chinese Flood Relief Efforts
The Grain Stabilization Corporation reports 15,000,000 bushels of American wheat sold in China to aid flood relief. The wheat is distributed by the Chinese relief commission in exchange for labor on Yangtze River valley dikes, enabling the repair and construction of over 2000 miles of flood protection. The program has helped convert millions of rice eaters to wheat work routines, expanding American grain markets and showing substantial potential for future exports.
