The Wheat Surplus Disappears and U S Alarm Rises
The World of Wheat article notes Canada’s wheat surplus shrinking and U S actions to boost acreage and import substitutes. It cites planned imports of 175 million bushels from Canada, with Canada’s on-hand stock projected to drop to about 400 million by August 1, 1944, and farm surpluses near normal. It argues against cutting production, viewing the Canadian surplus as a wartime boon and condemning calls to reduce output.
