in this matter; shipment will take place as quickly as possible and will be added to the reserve stocks in the country. Some additional quantity of lard is also being purchased in the U.S.A. As regards stocks of flour I estimate that the supply of over six weeks at the present moment will be increased to seven weeks by the end of the month and to eight weeks' supply at the end of July. I would point out that the total stocks of wheat and flour taken together at the beginning of this month are estimated to amount to sixteen weeks supply.
