They buy millions of tonnes of, wheat and other erains

The-idea is far from new. In effect, the U.S.A. tried,

President Carter opted for a grain embargo •to Russia for
the invasion of Afghanistan. It seemed _Cabe ahalf-hcasted
effort. We.all know thathig graizfsellers in the'U.S. sold' to
countries other. than Russia knowing full-well that the
buyers were only middle=men for the U.S.S.R.
The idea of a food cartel to deal with OPEC„,ceuld be
difficult to 'enforce. It could/take considerable organiztng
and the four or-five participating nations would have to be'
'tinted in their stand so'that the dollar bill would not be the
motivating teeter. •
And_si coerse. th/participating governments would
have to work with agrilture so that sector of the economy
did not suffer if grain shipments were held back. Farmers
would have to be cempensated.
