EUROPE WILL RELY ON U. S. FOR FOODSTUFF Exceed Those of 1921, Is Estimate. WASHINGTON*. May 3.—Europe will rely heavily this year upon the United States, both for raw materials and foodstuffs. America’s exports, therefore, will continue In a starge a volume ,ls not larger than In 1921. The best estimates of American trade observers today revealed that Europe's crops are not np to predictions. America’s wheat snrplns will be drawn upon to make up shortages in different European countries. While crops in the chief grain-growing regions of Europe are in fair condition, there will be a deficiency in output because of poor results from the sowings last fall. Competent experts abroad, reporting to the Commerce Department and other Government agencies, agree that to make up the shortage in the larger producing areas, as well as the much larger deficiency In the central European countries, will mean a steadier flow of American products to European buyers. A more hopeful view prevails of Europe’s ability to finance heavier purchases. Reports to the Federal Reserve board and other fiscal agencies lndlacte that European securities are being sold in large volume In the United States at the present time, and the result will be the establishment of new credit channels, through which larger foreign trade may be arranged. Trade expert®, reviewing Europe's food for the remainder of this year, cite following facts: Rumania, one of Europe's great grain itorebouses, offers bad prospects for lext season’s harvests. Intenive efforts are being made by England, France, Italy and Roumania to increase the spring plantings to make up part of expected shortages. In Germany, the Netherlands and Poland the potato shortage, with accompanying high prices, has tended to stimulate larger acreage of potatoes at the expense of beet sugar acreage. Conditions closer to normal appear to exist in Belgium, Scandinavia and Italy. In war areas of Europe It is estimated that 90 per cent of the farm land will be under cultivation this year. Ileavy buying this spring already has restored partially the depleted grain stocks of Great Britain. France, Belgium and the Netherlands must continue to purchase heavily of grains through the entire summer, experts declared. Most persistent demand comes from Central Europe. This Is due to the exhaustion of native grain stocks, potato shortage, scant supplies of fodder as a result of the drought last autumn. Austria's Import demands of flour alone probably will amount to 324,000 torn* between March 1 and August L Germany la far from self-suppordng In her fodostnff production and must continue to buy extensively of American exporters.
