LEAN CENTER CUTS ROAST - Resum ption of trad e w ith China could have m any diverse effects on N o rth w ey m arkets. Ten years ago the U nited States shipped nearly $200.000.000 w orth o. farm products to China. Among these w ere w heat, flour and other giain products; canned and dried milk, and some fru it and vege table products from the N orth west. L ast year, and the five preced ing years, no farm products have gone from this country to the m ainland of C hina—at least not directly. O ur shipm ents of ten years ago, although financed to a consider able ex ten t by our foreign aid ] fund, do give some idea of the possible size cf the Chinese m a r ket. Yet this m ark et m ight be come much larger if the Chinese are successful in th eir cu rren t efforts to increase industrial pro duction, raising income. Even then, the old problem of earning dollars m ight rem ain until they produced som ething th at we could buy to advantage. At one time, China offered w al nuts and eggs in this country. This was very upsetting to m a r kets h ere Chinese hooked rugs ! w ere liked by A m erican homema kers, but cut into the sales of dom estic rug m anufacturers. No one knows w nat goods China m ight offer or w ant from us in the future, but it is quite ap p aren t th at any change in our policies tow ard China could bring many and varied changes in our m arkets. T rade w ith C hina m ight help clear aw ay the cloud of concern th at has been hanging over N o rth west w heat producers in recent years. T his cloud has already been p artially lifted by increased sales in other p arts of the O rient, especially in Ja p an and India. At one tim e China took nearly 9,000, 000 bushels of our w heat; p art of this was in the form of flour milled in the Northwest. But would trad e bring addition al difficulties to poultry men, n u t grow ers and other already hard pressed? T h at’s am ong the ques tions w hich would have to be a n sw ered in any consideration of re opening trad e relationships. Great Decisions Opinipn Ballot stances. —d.
