Pact on World Wheat Trade Signed by 21 Nations
London Aug 25 Representatives of 21 nations signed a wheat agreement at the world conference. The pact aims to give Canadian farmers a stable price and orderly market, with export limits for the current crop and a pledge by major importers to curb production and boost consumption. A key clause lowers customs duties when the international gold price reaches 63.08 cents a bushel, a level currently about 16 percent higher than present.
