In a Wenatchee talk Dr. F A Motz, London agricultural commissioner, predicted Europe will buy large U S apple surpluses again once markets open. He said overproduction would be unheard of, as Europeans prefer cash transactions over barter and expect ships to carry war material in times of conflict. He noted changes in European citrus and apple sourcing, with South Africa, Palestine, Spain, Argentina, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland as active players and co op retailing shaping fruit presentation.
