The imports of wheat have come mainly from Canada and Argentina and have not competed with the domestic crop.

The price of wheat is a world price; and it is a matter of little moment whether the Canadian wheat goes directly into the markets of the other countries of the world or indirectly through this country.

Actual relief can come only from the adoption of constructive measures of a broader scope, from the restoration of peace everywhere in the world.

One does not pay a compliment to the American farmer who attempts to alarm him by dangers from foreign competition.
