Photographed Nov. 3-13, 1909 in Jamaica, Long Island, New York. A greedy tycoon decides, on a whim, to corner the world market in wheat. This doubles the price of bread, forcing the grain's producers into charity lines and further into poverty. Shows the differences between the lives of those who work to grow the wheat and the life of the man who dabbles in its sale for profit.

- In the "Wheat Pit" of Tirana. Wheat speculation in Tirana, Albania, is accomplished without the assistance of tickers or brokers. The wheat pit of Tirana is a corner of the market place where buyer and seller meet face to face. Between them they weigh the grain. The primitive scales must balance to a hair's breadth before the transaction is completed. Grain is one of the scarcest food products of the Balkans. Until American cereal relief arrived thousands had gone without white bread for five years. The Red Cross supervised the actual distribution of food relief in many parts of the Balkans [graphic].
