their part in service and saving."
Other reasons were advanced by Mr.
Hoover tor setting1 up an independent
executive organization operating direct
ly under the President, an organiza
tion which would have authority and
be effective.
Reasons Are Given.
"One of the reasons is this," he con
tinued, "that there is no form of
restraint on the activities of a people
which is so onerous as the restraint
on the normal occupations as that
made necessary in food supply and its
consumption. My feeling is that the
whole basis of democracy lies in the
free and rightful play of individual
effort and here is the most tremendous
restraint which can be put upon the
free play of individualism in the coun
try and it is a most serious restraint
to undertake. That restraint is only
justified by the existence of a very
great emergency and it should carry
within itself the seeds of its own destruction."

MR. LANDRVH, VICE-PRESIDENT OF
STATE ASSOCIATION.
BY JOHTV CAT.TiAJST OXAUGHL1N.
WASHINGTON, May 19. (Special.)
- President Wilson announced today
that Herbert C. Hoover, who has won
international fame by feeding Bel
gium, has accepted the all-Important
task of food administration.
Moreover, the President has aban
doned the food control measure de
vised by Secretary of Agriculture
Houston and has come out squarely
behind the views of Mr. Hoover.
Mr. Hoover will administer an agency
separate and distinct from .the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Hoarding; to Be Prevented.
It will be his business, according to
the President, to do these things:
1. Investigation of the existing
available stocks of foodstuffs and of
the costs and practices of the various
lood producing and distributing trades.
2. Prevention of hoarding and con
trol of food by persons other than pro
ducers, dealers and traders.
S. Requisitioning, when necessary,
of food supplies for public use and
necessary handling equipment.
4. Licensing of wholesome and legit
imate mixtures and milling percent
ages. Waste to Be Prohibited.
5. Prohibition of the unnecessary or
wasteful use of foods.
6. Establishment of a minimum
price.
7. Temporary fixing of reasonable
prices, to break up corners and at
tempts at speculation.
The Department of Agriculture will
devote itself to:
1. Fopd production.
2. Food conservation.
3. Marketing of food.
The President deemed It advisable to
Issue the statement in explanation of
the very great power he is seeking
from Congress because of the nervous
ness which has developed throughout
the country and the feeling In the
Senate and House against granting the
extensive authority asked by Secretary
Houston.
Powers Still Wanted.
Mr. Wilson still wants the powers,
but they are to be exercised by Mr.
Houston.
The President asserts the powers are
no greater than those lodged In other
governments and are Intended to stim
ulate food production and conserve
food and not to restrain arbitrarily or
injuriously interfere with the normal
processes of production.
The division of powers between the
proposed food administration and the
Department of Agriculture are in ex
act accordance with the views of Mr.
Hoover.
In a parenthetical note added to his
statement, the President says that Sec
retary of Agriculture Houston has been
of the opinion, from the outset that the
special emergency powers for the regu
lation of distribution and consumption
during the war would be vested in the
President and that these powers should
not be exercised by the Department of
Agriculture, but by an emergency
agency.
Hoover Cites Blunders.
It appears, however, that the bill
presented by Mr. Houston in the Con
gressional agricultural committee pro
posed to confer additional powers upon
the Agricultural Department, such, for
example, as the power to make an Im
mediate food survey, which, according
to the President's statement today,
would be done by the Food Adminis
tration to be organized.
Here Is Mr. Hoover's comment on the
department's bill:
"The result of three years of turmoil
nd enormous accumulation of blunder
ing and experience has been the uni
versal development in every European
government of foodstufrs, munitions
and shaping into administration bodies
of equal importance with the other
administrative bodies of the govern
ment. That has been found necessary
to give prestige to these organizations
under which they may co-operate with
the commercial interests of the country
and to give the prestige with which
they may co-operate with the similar
departments of the allies, and. above
all, to create In the minds of the people
& certain imaginative alarm resulting
in saving and arising from the very fact
that you set up a food control In the
country.
Came for Concern Portrayed.
"The fact that it Is set up And given
powers Is in itself an advertisement to
the people that there is cause for con
cern. The operations of this depart
ment falling on those larger issues,
they fall into attempt to secure better
International distribution, to eliminate
the overlapping of haulage and. of al
most equal importance, to secure the
elimination of waste In consumption
and voluntary restraint of the people
as to extravagance both In food and
living. As the situation Involves fur
ther degeneration in Europe, we may
have to go further with the measures
of forced restraint, but by appealing to
the self-sacrifice of our people, to their
devotion and to their common sense
and by keeping that appeal in front of
them, morning, noon and night, we can

at Session That WU1 Close at
Pendleton Today,
PENDLETON, Or., May 19. (Special.)
Marion Lawrence, of Chicago, gen
eral secretary of the International As
sociation; Dr. J. D. Springston. Port
land, educational secretary of the State
Association, and E. C. Knapp. Spokane,
general secretary of the Inland Empire
Association, were the principal speak
ers at the three sessions today of the
Eastern division of the Oregon State
Sunday School convention here.
Mr. Lawrence expressed the object of
the association in his address in the
morning session when he recalled that
three weeks ago he had seen a throng
of men and women "hit the trail" for
Billy Sunday In New York.
"When I thought of the years they
had wasted. I was more strongly im
pressed with the educational evan
gelism which reaches the young peo
ple as arrayed against the salvage I
witnessed in the metropolis."
An interesting feature of the after
noon session was the music and re
marks by Umatilla Indians from the
Mission Church on the reservation near
here. A large, part of the day was
occupied by county and denominational
conferences. The convention will close
tomorrow. Visitors will occupy the
local pulpits In the morning and the
convention work will be resumed in
the afternoon. At the executive ses
sion William Landrum, of La Grande,
was elected vice-president and the fol
lowing members of the executive com
mittee were chosen: W. H. Rice, Mil
ton: Mrs. B. S. Farmer, Vale; Mrs. C.
E. Woodson, Heppnar.
U-BOAT REFUSES RESCUE
BRITON ON WRECKAGE INTIMI
DATED AND LEFT TO FATE.
Deposition Reveals for First Time De
struction of Steamer T brads,
of Cnnard Company.
LONDON, May 19. Douglas Duff,
the fourth officer and the only survivor
of 'the steamer Thracla, sunk by a
German submarine on April 27, says in
depositions that three hours after the
ship was sunk the German submarine
approached the -capsized boat, the
stern of which had been blown off, to
which he was csinging.
The submarine commander first
threatened to enoot Duff, says the
fourth officer, but later said he "would
not waste the powder on an English
man," and sailed away, leaving Duff
to his fate. He was picked up by
French fisherman.
No previous report of the sinking of
the Thracla has been received. She
was a Cunard steamer of 2381 tons
gross.
MOTOR VEHICLES INCREASE
License Payments at Vancouver Are
Ahead of 1916.
VANCOUVER. Wash.. May 19. (Spe
clal.) The number of motor vehicles
owned and operated in Vancouver and
Clarke County Is increasing rapidly
In 1916 the County Auditor collected
$6692 from the owners of 1136 auto
mobiles and 115 motorcycles.
So far this year, since March, she has
collected $6614 from 1115 automobiles
and 83 motorcycles.
Last year more than $1700 was col
lected after June 1, so it is expected
this will be a banner year. The state
law now requires automobiles, partlcu
larly trucks, doing business In Wash
ington, to procure Washington licenses.
Many Portland firms are compelled to
take out licenses under this rule.

High Cost of Living In Paris Cause
of Women's Strike.
PARIS. May 19. The ranks of the
striking dressmakers of Paris have in
creased until they now number some
10.000. Today groups of the strikers
gathered and sought recruits for their
ranks from establishments not previ
ously arrected. Precautionary arrange

sive scale prevented disorders.

DIPLOMATS SAIL FOR HOME
Germans From China and Turks
Depart From New York.
NEW YORK. May 19. The remaining
members of the Austrian diplomatic
and consular party and 150 Germans
from China, were among those who
booked passage on the Norwegian
American liner Kristianiafjord. sailing

neutral and passes through neutral
waters exclusively, the management of
the line announced there was no need
of secrecy.

the Turkish Embassy at Washington,
also were passengers.
0STAGE RATES REVAMPED
demned today by the Oregon conference
of the Evangelical Association, whose
members decided on combined action to
stem the tide of skeptical teachings
by showing the wrongs of such instruc
tion, through the pulpit and through
the press. Toung men who commence
a career in the ministry are checked in
their activities by skeptical remarks,
teachings and surroundings, it was
shown.
According to -conference members,
danger lies in the fact that many young
men attend both a ministerial college
and & state institution, and In the lat
ter receive . instruction which In part
discourages their ministerial activities.
The conference went on record as op
posed to the marriage of probationers,
and the probationary time was extended
for any anyone who married.
Credentials in the conference were
granted to R. D. Strerfeller. of Everett.
Wash.: D. P. Henry, of Seattle, and T.
R. McDonald, of Canada.
Three were given license to preach:
Theodore Cohrs. of Seattle: R. Sperow,

Ways and Means Committee to Meet
Sunday In Effort to Shape the
Bill for Its Final Passage
Tuesday Night.
WASHINGTON, May 19. In an ef
fort to whip the war tax bill Into
shape for final passage by Tuesday
night. Democratic Leader Kltchin to
night called a special meeting of the
ways and means committee for tomor
row to consider amendments. Ffnal
disposition will be made then, if pos
sible, of the troublesome second-class
mail rate increases and the advertis
ing, automobile and musical Instru
ment taxes.
Defeat of a proposal by Representa
tive Lenroot. of Wisconsin, to strike
out the 6 per cent light and heat tax,
and adoption of an amendment lower
ing the express transportation tax
from 10 to 6 per cent, were the out
standing results of today's debate In
the House. The Lenroot proposal was
voted down, 58 to 116. despite the fact
that the Wisconsin Representative had
effected a $66,000,000 Increase in the
Income tax surtax schedules largely
by the argument that he intended they
should substitute the light and heat
levies.
The proposed second-class mall rate
increases and the advertising tax are
causing the committee much concern.
With the committee virtually agreed
to accept the Moon amendment on the
second-class mail rates and stand by
the 5 per cent tax on all advertising
except newspapers and periodicals now
In the bill. Representative Johnson, of
Washington, a newspaper publisher.
and Representative Fitzgerald, of New
York, injected new proposals Into the
situation today which resulted in the
committee deferring final action until
tomorrow. .
Representative Johnson declared that
the Moon plan, to Increase the mail
rate on periodicals carried in the
mails to any zones above the second,
was unjust, and suggested a double
plan basing the mall rate on the num
ber of subscribers served by mail and
the subscription price of the newspa
per or periodical affected, .without re
gard to distance carried. Under this
plan a publication selling at 50 cents
year would pay In addition to tne
regular present 1-cent flat rate a new
rate of one-quarter of a cent per pounS
ud to 20.000 subscribers. At 20.000
subscribers the additional rate would
be raised to one-half cent per thousand.
Representative Fitzgerald proposed
to reduce the 5 per cent tax on all ad
vertising except newspapers and peri
odicals to 1 per cent and exclude only
countrv weeklies within their home
counties.
Numerous changes were made In the
life Insurance section of the bill today
none of the rates being affected.

Says Official.
ST. PAUL. Minn.', May 19. En
thusiastic assurance that the North
west the "National breadbasket"
would lend its united support in pro
viding fighters, food and finances for
the war against Germany greeted Will
iam G. McAdoo. Secretary of the Treas
ury, on his visit to the Twin Cities to
day in furtherance of the liberty loan.
The Secretary was cheered by thou
sands throughout a busy day.
The Secretary pointed out that
America's "splendid Isolation" has been
destroyed and the Nation Is face to
face with "the same unfortunate prox
imity to a formidable military power
as that In which the European nations
have found themselves for half a.cen-
ury.
"In order to carry on the war," Mr.
McAdoo said, "the first necessity is
money. This is the reason we have
ssued this great liberty loan; that Is
the reason we call it the liberty loan,
because the money derived from It will
be dedicated to the cause of human
liberty throughout the world.
If the war continues another year
the allied governments will expend In
the United States at least $5,000,000,
000 for supplies and materials.
There is every reason why business
should proceed on a larger basis of
prosperity than this country has ever
known."

Plan of Secretary Wilson, of Depart

Congress for Action, -
to
WASHINGTON, May 19. Legislation
to prevent future railway strikes was
proposed to Congress today by Secre
tary Wilson of the Labor Department.
A committee of nine to fix wage rates
on all railroads for three-year periods
was suggested.
A bill submitted provides uniform
pay on all roads engaged In Interstate
commerce and in the District of Co
lumbia, and provides heavy penalties
for railroads paying more or less than
rates prescribed.
The system aims to eliminate strikes
and lockouts- by creating a condition
under which nothing would be gained
by them. All wage rates would be
based on an eight-hour law. The board
would fix wage rates for water as well
as rail transportation systems.
