The produc tion of over one billion bushels of wheat and over 8J. 000, 000 bushels of rye. through the planting of I7.J17.O0O acres to winter wheat and of 6.111.000 acres to rye this fall, Is th Immedi ate war agricultural program for the nation announced by David F. Houston, aecretary of agriculture. This record winter wheat acreage, an Increase of It per cent over last year, would yield 72.000.00 bushels If the average yield for the past 10 years Is equaled, or under a repetition of the favorable conditions of 1J14. would give 810.000.000 bushels. In either case, with a spring wheat crop next year equal to that of 115. the na tion win have morj than one billion bushels of wheat for domestic use and export. Increase Xs ZsseaUal Thla vastly Increased production of wbeat, needed in any case, will be ab aolotely essential to prevent t eerious ahortage of breadstuf fa next summer should the growing corn, now behind the seacon. be much damaged by early frosts. The program approved by Secretary Houston represents the best thought of the department of agriculture and of state agricultural officials anj atate councils of defense. Effort has been made to recommend in each state about as laiffe r. acreage In wheat and rye as can be sown without upsetting proper f ai tn prac tice, which must be maintained in the Is aay year lare isue.

(WASHING TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) In explaining to Senator Chamberlain why new plants for the manufacture of aircraft on the Pacific cannot be encouraged, Howard K.

The Joint army and navy technical board has approved only two types of motors and the full production of motors for six months ahead will only keep pace with the planes al ready contracted. Plana for new air craft plants should be held In abey ance, Mr. Coffin advises, until the supply of motors can be augmented, or until the technical board can de cide upon the adoption of European types of motors for American use. There are four aircraft factories on the Paclflo coast. Mr. Coffin states. The industrial bureau of the Eugene Chamber of Commerce has been mak ing inquiries as to whether the gov ernment considers that there Is room for additional factories.

As a result of the isolation of certain of the world's wheat pro ducing countries by either belligerent lines or short shipping, the normal de termination of the price of wheat by he ebb and flow of commerce Is to tally destroyed. "In order to control speculation and to secure more equitable distribution cf the available wbeat and flour be tween their countries, the allied gov ernments have plaoed the whole pur chase of their supplies la the hsnds of one buyer.
