LESS U.S. GRAIN FOR EXPORT
WARNING GIVEN AT GENEVA
(Rec. 9 p.m.) GENEVA, August 28. The United States Under-Secretary of Agriculture (Mr N. E. Dodds) issued a forceful warning that United States grain exports to Europe and Asia would soon be heavily reduced. Mr Dodds added that the world’s total export supply was 29,000,000 tons, while the world’s requirements were 50.000,060 tons. The United States would need to export between 18,000,000 and 20,000,000 tons of grain if the world was to be fed even as well as last year. The United States would, however, be fortunate if it could export last year’s record of 14,500.000 tons.
