London, July 8.

Mr. John Strachey, Minister of Food, stated today that the United Kingdom has withdrawn from the new International wheat agreement because it will not be ratifled by the United States, which is respon- sible for nearly half of the ex- ports.

Mr. Strachey suld that the withdrawal was announced by the United Kingdom delegate at the first meeting of the International, Wheat Council in Washington on Tuesday.

Ile explained that the British Government "is of the opinion that the guarantees of the export- ing countries whose Governments have ratified the International Wheat Agreement are insufficient to ensure its successful operation,'

The Democratic Party, organ- ised in 1945 when the Govern- ment granted permission for other parties to be formed, al- leged that past elections were unfair and that the National As- sembly did not represent the nation.
