WINTER WHEAT CROP
OF UNITED STATES FALLS
Government Report Shows De
crease of 50,000,000 Bushels.
Price Soars in Chicago
WASHINGTON, April 7
Hope for Immediate relit f from tho pres
ent high food prices vvni sh Utercd todaj
by the repoit of tho Federal Bureau of Crop
JMImato, which showed tho forecast of tho
w Inter wheat crop has fal'cn oil 50,000,000
busheli ns compared with lust voar's pro
duction, nnd 240,000,000 bushels less tlmti
tho 1D1G crop.
With tho publication of the figures, wheat
soared on tho Chicago Board of Tiade, May
wheat reaching tho new hlgli ncord of
J2.11U. July and September wheat Kept
ttep on tho upward move.
'The large decrease In w Inter wheat
presents a serious sltuitlon at this time,"
said a bureau official today.
"A special iffort has been made to In
crease production."
The heaviest falling off occurred In the
central western section, the largest wheat
producing belt In the country low a, one
of tho leading gr.iln-prodtlclng States, was
22 per cent below Its normal production
Nebraska and Kansas also fell off very
)ie.illv
The Mates In tho South Atlantic Division.
Including Ohlo, ItiJttna, Illinois, Michigan
and Wisconsin, all showed slight gains in
production This Is tho onl ncuIoii In
which tho wheat ;lcld wu.s larger than
last ear
To offset tho heavy decrease In tho w In
ter wheat nop tho Department of Agri
culture toda opened a countrj-wlilo cam
paign to Increase acreage of spring wheat
and other foodstuffs
Curl Crooman, Assistant .Secrctaty of
thn Department, Is touring the southern
States, urging upon tho farmers tho neces
sity nt this tlmo for a larger production
of foodstuffs
Tho Government forecast was fur a pio
ductlon of 430,000,000 bushels of winter
wheat, compared with 4S1.744.00O bushels
In lOlfi Tho nverago conlltlon was given
as 03 4 per cent of normal, against 78 3
per cent on April 1, 1916
LLANERCH MAN DENIES
FLYING GERMAN FLAG
Terrible Report Started by
Spiteful Woman, Wife
Declares
Frederick Dannenhauer, of 10 I.landaff
road, I.lanerch, Indignantly denied today
that io had ever down a Geiman flag
from his home, as reported this morning.
According to the story, a German flag was
flown from a window of his home jesterday
morning for tho third tlmo since tho difll,
culty with Germany began
"This is the most damnable thing ever
published," said Dannenhauer today, "For
one thing, I have not been In my homo In
tho da) time for more than n week I run
swamped with business at my plico at G147
Market street, whero I canduct a candy
manufacturing and lobbing business
"We have never at an)- tlmo pu' a Ger
man flag out of the window. Servants In
the house rould not havo done It, for we
have no servants Furthermore, wo never
owned a German flag nor had one In our
possession "
Chief of Pollco Hallssey, of I.lanerch, who
was reported to have been sent for by In
dignant cltl7ens when tho flag was flown
denied that ho had seen a flag fl)lng from
the Dannenhauer home
"I did hear that a flag had been flown,"
he said, 'but I did not seo It, and I cer
tainly did not Bay the things about It I am
quoted as having said. I don't believe tliero
Is any truth In the Btory."
Mrs. Dannenhauer declared a spiteful
woman was at tho bottom of tho whole
thing.
"I am sure a certain woman started this
report," she said. "Just becauso wo are
happy in our little homo and getting along
nicely In our business, somebody comes
along and starts a terrlblo story llko that.
It Is quite true my son has a wireless sta
tion here. He is seventeen years old and
built most of It himself. We encouraged him
In It because It kept him at homo. A week
ago, however, a woman called up and de
manded to know whether we vvero receiving
messages from Germany. That Is perfectly
ridiculous. It Is a complete station, but only
moderately powerful.
"A week ago my son dismantled It en
tirely, so there could, be no possible cause
for troublo with the Government In this
crisis As for the flag none of us are at
home In the daytime; we all work together
In our little business. We never owned a
German flag In our lives."
