Democrats Hopeful On Kennedy Tax Cut After GOP Move

Drought Cuts Wheat Harvest in Russia
Drought sharply reduced the Soviet grain harvest this year, forcing Russia to import seven million tons of grain from Canada and Australia to meet domestic and export commitments. Even in the North Caucasus, July and August rains failed to lift yields, with Ukraine and Kazakhstan also hit by drought losses. No bread shortage or rationing was seen, though conservation measures were deployed to prevent bread from being used as cattle fodder.
