" Lease-Lend Act Mav Not Give Aid To Wheat Farmers PULLMAN, Wash., March 21 (IP) N. E. Dodd, predicting a billion-bushel wheat surplus for North America by the end of 1941, warned growers today they could not expect the lend lease act to ease their marketing problems. If any food is shipped to Brit ain it probably will be in the form of meats, fats, dried fruits, vegetables and milk, and other concentrated foodstuffs," said Dodd, western division director of the agricultural adjustment administration. "The present supply situation Is such that there seems to be no doubt producers will be asked to vote in a national mar keting quota referendum May 31." Dodd said amendments to laws governing marketing . quotas could be expected before the referendum and that these pos sibly would increase the penalty for marketing excess wheat, make the quotas effective for a two-year period and limit them to farms cultivating 15 or more acres of wheat.
