Canadian Wheat Situation Reaches Serious Proportions
Montreal storage holds 12,620,123 bushels of 15,000,000 capacity while 36 lake boats await unloading. Orders total 315,070 bushels as hundreds of sailors are unemployed. Shipping lines report layoffs across Fort Williams, Sarnia, Collingwood, Midland and Kingston, with no signs of an easing tieup. Experts link the crisis to the wheat pool and uncertain Western Canada harvests amid shaky European demand.
