  • Unless the Council decides otherwise, 72 metric tons of wheat-flour shall be deemed equivalent to 100

metric tons of wheat for the purpose of relating quantities of wheat-flour to the quantities specified in this Annex.

    • In the event of the provisions of Article X being invoked by reason of a short crop it will be recognized

that these guaranteed sales do not include the minimum requirements of wheat of any Occupied Area for which the United States of America has, or may assume, supply responsibility, and that the necessity of meeting these requirements will be one of the factors considered in determining the ability of the United States of America to deliver its guaranteed sales under this Agreement.
