Mr. Hoover replied to this mcss-
a ge :
"We will export every grain that
the American people save from their
normal consumption. We believe
our people will not fail to meet the
emergency."

of wheat for the allies Mr. Hoover
says that Belgium must be given
1M.000.oC0 bushels and that Cuba
and other neutrals must be spared at
least 10,000,000.
"We estimate." says bis statement
tonight, "ihat the American people
have faved as much as 30. 000. 000
bushels out cf their last harvest and
if we are to meet the increased de
mands we must rigidly reduce our
wheat consumption to "0 per cent
below normal until the next harvest."
Europe's beef demands for tbe
next three months. Mr. Hoover says,
will amount to 70.000.000 pounds a
month, against a pre-war importa
tion from America of only 1M"0.000
pounds a month. A ten per t t sav
