Expansion of Wheat into Alcohol and Rubber Probed
The North West Elevators Association argues Canada should convert surplus wheat into high value products for war needs. Wheat can feed alcohol and butyl alcohol production for synthetic rubber and motor fuels, with distilleries at strategic western points and beet sugar refineries repurposed. Expanded uses and open markets, not export quotas, are urged to aid farmers and war effort.

Agricultural Markets: Moisture Hits US Crops and UK Imports Rise
Factors reducing supply or lifting demand include higher moisture lowering US grain quality with many lots below No 2 and tough grades. The UK expects to import half its needs despite higher production. Canada sends 15 000 tons of gifted wheat to Greece. Argentina’s visible supply is 17 609 000 bushels versus 124 221 000 last year. British harvest near completion with pre war average yields. Northern Europe reports decent crops but harvest slowed by cold damp weather.
