Words not wheat sales blamed for higher US prices
The Associated Press reports higher food prices stem from controversy over grain sales to Russia, not reduced supplies. US farmers will produce about three times needed. Russia would hold only one third of the year’s leftover wheat after domestic use and exports. Meany urged dock workers to resume Soviet grain pickups as Ford extended a grain sales moratorium through mid October and sought a long term deal to minimize price impacts.
