A chiuse excepting proceedings In congress was stricken out. The section as originally draw defined the president's authority only lu Serl Mr mm BUM POOD ABSOLUTELY NEW YORK, May 11. Herbert C. Hoover, who recently came from Eur ope to advise the government on food conditions In that country, says that, without control wo may see flour at 20 a barrel before the year Is over, but that with control "the present price of flour can be reduced 40 to 50 per cent and at the same time the producer bo treated In a liberal man ner. Mr. Hoover thus outlined food con ditions In a statement to the Associ ated Tress today: Food Panic Unnecessary There Is absolutely no occasion for food panic In this country nor any justification for outrageous prices, unless tho opposition of special Inter ests defeats the president in obtain ing the necessary powers to control the nation's food fully and adequate- America's problem is not one of famine, for wo have now and will have next year a large surplus. Our problem Is, after the proper protec tlon of our own people, to give to our, allies tho last ounce of surplus of.neapolis on April which wo aro capable. To lErgulato Prices "Therefore, tho nation nocds To' od c-vUrol for two purposes: 'eg it' prices and to increase tho n-nliiR. After providing for our nor mal consumption, we will have, to gether with Canada, a surplus for our allies equal to only 60 per cent of the food they will require from us. If wo tnke broad measures of control, we can, with as little disturbance to economic machinery a3 need he, fur nish them an additional 20 per cent. If the whole world allied and neutral, Is to have the unrestricted run of our markets In competition Ith each other a,nd In competition with the speculator in this country, we may expect to see $5 wheat heforo the year is over. No Arbitrary Interference Large measures of food control do not mean arbitrary Interference with the necessary economic machinery of trade. They mean that every branch be called in hy the government and forgo themselves Into a link from which tho contemplated chain will protect producer, legitimate distribu tor, and consumer. For instance I am assured that tho American farmer did not realizo $1.30 per bushel for the 1910 wheat harvest: yet, tho price of wheat in New York today is t:1.25 per bushol and flour Is $14 per barrel, with all Its attendant harshlp and dislocation of social and industrial life. Skunks in Tmdo "I have no hesitation In saying that If tho able, patriotic men repre senting the majority of each branch of the food trades were called in and clothed with tho necessary powers to force the small minority of skunks that exist in every trade, ono result would be that an equally nutritious flour based on $l.!iO wheat could bo sold In New York a good deal under $S per barrel, and every trade would recelvo Its legitimate profit. Without control wo may seo $20 flour heforo tho year Is out and a total dislocation of wages and conse quent dislocation of industry and living. On tho other hand. If we overcome tho submarine and If wo open other markets lo our allies wo may see wheat at $1 a bushel and flour under $ti. In any event, with sufficient control, the present prlco of flour can bo reduced by 40 to no per cent and at the samo tlmo tho producer treated lu a liberal manner." 4 COPKXHAOKX.

Hamil ton, who was arrested In San Fran cisco, answers tho description of Joe Pedonhaugh, bought in connection with tho murder of -Mrs. Alice Mc Quillan Dunn here two weeks ago, ac cording to St. Paul police. Peter La valle, a local detective, Is on his way to San Francisco to sco Hamilton. SAN' FRANCISCO, May 11. Cap tain of Detectives Duncan Matheson received advices today from the chief of pdlico at St. Paul that E. H. Hamil ton, alias Harry Lux, a 19-year-old bell boy, arrested hero last night with Pearl Whltekamp and two other bell boys, was wanted In St. Paul In con nection with the murder a tew weeks ago of Mrs. Alice McQuillan Dunn. A St. Paul detective has started for San Francisco, the ndvlces said, to ques- tion Hamilton, who also Is wanted in connection with the murder at Mln- 10 of Policeman Connery. i Pearl Whltekamp ia said by the po lice to be Hamilton's wife. Hamilton's career of crime, according to police records, began on February 16 last, when ho held up a bank at University Place, Nebraska, locking the cashier In tho vault and escaping with $1,- 900. He then went to Kansas City and married. Two days later ho was arrested in Minneapolis for speeding. His wife was with him. On the way to the police station Hamilton shot and fatally wounded Policeman Con nery, who lived long enough to give a description of his assailant. From Minneapolis, the police say, Hamilton and his wiie went to Salt Lako City where they joined forces with Thomas Woodward and Richard Franklin, who were arrested here last night. Then they went to Portland, where, according to tho police, they robbed the home of a doctor. From Portland they were traced to San Francisco. .

Al-' though it was generally believed to day that congress would promptly nprovc the conference report on the war army selective draft hill, the Roosevelt division issue may nptin lie revived in both house and senate. The liooscvolt volunteer provision put into the bill by the senate, was stricken out of the compromise hill as finally drawn up by conferees of the house and senate. The fight to retain the provision will now be car- icd to the floor of the senate, it was said today by republican champions. Within a fortnight after President Wilson approves the hill the war de partment will set in motion vast ma chinery lor registration ot those eli gible for conscription. Men between tho ages of '21 and III), inclusive, would bo selected under the provis ions of the new hill. FRECKLES Don't Hido Tliem Willi n Veil; He move Them Willi the Otliine Proscription.
