BURN THE SURPLUS WHEAT?

‘he Farm & Ranch Review of Cal-
Gary is editorialy advocating that the
four great wheat exporting countries
of the world, viz., Canada, Argentine,
Australia and. the Duited States, raise
a fund of a “couple ‘of hundred million
dollars, purchase the surplus wheat in
the world and destroy it, as wag don
iu the case of coffee and a small sales
tax then be put. on the new whea
crops untill the governments. are. re-im-
Imrsed for the original fund raised.

It hos been fairly well establishec
that there is to much food stuff in th

world, and as wheat prices regulate |.

the prices of other fod stuffs, whe
is the first thing to regulate. Thc
nmuount of food stuffs in the world is
not deminishing, but 1s in fact increas-
ing, and the wheat surplus is increas |
ing,

The Omineca Herald

C ‘While the policy of destroying the
surplus wheat seems: on the face of it
to be an almost criminal policy, thé
more one studies it the less criminal
does it appear.

Farmers represent 85 per cent of the
world population, At the present lov.
price of wheat the farmer’s purchasin.
power Js almost nil. The destruction
of the surplus wheat would bring back
to some thing reasonable,'the price of
wheat: the.farmer could buy; indus-
try would provide émployment and the
world would be off te a start towards ,
prosperity and fatr“living. - — .

«The Calgary farm paper algo advo
eates that after the surplus wheat has,
been destroyed, the governments of thx
wheat exporting countries then control
the production of wheat so as to sta-
Pallze the’ price in. future years anc
generations.

As world population is twenty or
more - millions less now than before the
war, and as production, through ‘the
use of machinery, encouraged by the
high prices during and immedlately atf-
ter the war, is greater, it seems that
something must *. done about it. —
