The object of this study has been to carry out an analysis of demand for bread grains in twelve Western European countries, to project the demand to 1966 and to match it against possible increases in production. The demand for bread grains was separated into two components, that entering directly into human consumption as flour and that consumed indirectly in all other forms. Direct consumption was projected on the basis of anticipated changes in population and income, it being assumed that tastes and relative prices would exert a negligible influence on quantities consumed. The quantity of bread grain disappearance for purposes other than direct consumption in 1966 was estimated from the trend in the percentage milled into flour to total bread grain consumption. The level of domestic production in 1966 was obtained by calculating the average annual production during 1955-59, and supposing that production would increase during the period of the study by the same percentage amounts as those by which per capita income growth rates were projected. Thus, the import requirement estimates for 1966 were obtained as the difference between the predicted levels of total consumption and domestic production. The results of the study indicated income elasticity coefficients in the European Economic Community which ranged from zero in Belgium-Luxembourg and Western Germany to -0.32 in the Netherlands; the coefficient for Austria was estimated at -0.20 and the elasticity coefficients for the other five countries of the study were in the range of -0.85 for Switzerland to -1.814 for Denmark. Comparison of direct consumption estimates using the coefficients calculated in this study with those calculated by using a United Nations-Food and Agriculture Organization average coefficient of —0.42 gave quite similar results for the nations as a group, but considerable variation in estimates for individual countries. The study indicated that direct consumption of bread grains will decline by 1966 for the area as a whole. The amount of bread grains used for purposes other than human consumption was forecast to increase. However net increases in consumption appeared to be easily offset by possible increases in production so the most likely estimates for 1966 indicated a decreased import requirement for the study countries as a group. / Land and Food Systems, Faculty of / Graduate

Este trabalho dissertativo é um estudo sobre as memórias deixadas por João de Mattos em seu Manuscrito, intitulado, Histórico Social de 1876 a 1912. Tal autor viveu, inicialmente, em Santos até 1876, a partir de 1877 em São Paulo e após 1878 no Rio de Janeiro. No referido Manuscrito, João de Mattos relata suas aventuras pela conquista da liberdade e sua luta por uma vida digna para a categoria dos padeiros. A dissertação examina a trajetória de Mattos e de seus companheiros na organização de três associações criadas pelos empregados de padarias no Rio de Janeiro: O Bloco de Combate dos Empregados de Padarias; a Sociedade Cooperativa dos Empregados de Padarias no Brasil; e a Sociedade Cosmopolita Protetora dos Empregados de Padaria. Além disso, analisa a presença dos trabalhadores da categoria em três momentos singulares da História: Na abolição, nas campanhas republicanas e no movimento operário. / This reported work is a study about the memories left by João de Mattos in his manuscript entitled, "Social History from 1876 to 1912. This author lived initially in Santos until 1876, in 1877 in Sao Paulo and after 1878 in Rio de Janeiro. In that manuscript, João de Mattos recounts his adventures about freedom conquest of freedom and the struggle for a dignified life to the bakers category. The dissertation examines the Mattos trajectory and his associates in the organization of three associations created by of bakeries employees in Rio de Janeiro The Bloco de Combate dos Empregados de Padarias, the Sociedade Cooperativa dos Empregados de Padarias no Brasil, and the Sociedade Cosmopolita Protetora dos Empregados de Padaria. Beside this examines the presence of workers from the category in three unique moments in history: The abolition, the Republican campaign and the labor movement.
