If present re strictions should In tho slightest de gree be relaxed. It would result In sortous want for the peoples of Eur ope before the new crop can reach tho market. "The food administration's estim ate of the position on June 1 Indi cates a total available supply until tho now harvest of about GG,000,0( bushels. Of this, 30,000,000 bushels must he exported before new wheat Is avallablo for export, If we are to maintain the absolutely necessary shipments to our army and the allies. That leaves about 26,000,000 bushels for domestic consumption for tho noxt two months. How Much U. S. Uses "Normal American consumption Is something over 40,000,000 bushels a month, so that tho most liboral con sumption at homo would be only one- third of normal. "Stato administrators meeting here this week were unanimous In tho vlow that even If tho coming harvest docs provo nhundant, It will be tho first duly of tho American peoplo to place evory grain thoy can save Into storngo to build up a rosorve against posslblo bad years ahead "In consequence thore should be no anticipation of unlimited wheat bread until tho war Is over.
