Famine Breeds Revolution
"The Russian revolution was a food
riot and oven yet that ally is tempo
rarily paralyzed. Responsibility rests
on our government for failure of dem-
acracy thru a shortage of food."
Turning to domestic conditions,
Mr. Hoover said this country had been
experiencing "unprecedented prices
and rampant speculation," citing how
middlemen and all other persons In
tho distribution processes have been
purchasing Increasing supplies to
avert Individual shortages.
Mr. Hoover cited tho canning trade
as an example where tho entire output
of vegetables and fish for 1917 has
been disposed of already before it
has even reached tho canners. They
predicted further high prices. Thou
sands of men, ho said, who hereto
fore have never owned a dollar's
worth or food stuff aro now speculat
ing in necessities.
American Prices Highest.
"The averngo prices to tho con
sumer In countries where food ad
ministration Is now In effect are low
er than those now prevailing in tho
United States," he said. "In England
the price of bread is even 25 per cent
below tho price wo pay. I believe
that unless some administration of
food Is taken we will look back at
theso prices as being moderate."
Mr, Hoover denied that the bill es
tablishes a food dictatorship. Ho
characterized the purposes of food ad
ministration as to mobilize the peo
ple In order to carry out tho advice
given them by the government offi
cials tnd to decentralize the' func
tions of the administration in order
to contrallze the function Into the
various states.
A commission lo take charge of
production and distribution of flour
sugar and possibly a few other prin
cipal commodities, Mr. Hoover said..
Is being contemplated.
Aim to Stalmllzo Prices.
"Provisions for tho government to
buy and sell commodities will be
necessary for use only ns to a very
few prime commodities," ho said.
"Tho aim Is to stabalizo prices and
thus eliminate speculation. Wo need I
an artificial balance wheat. By set
ting up a wheat commission we can
buy wheat, regulate Its storage and
transportation and handle it unex
ported or sold In this country. If
we do not do Ibis wheat prices may
relapse on account of our not beng
able to store and carry It, with spec
ulaos securing tho solo benefit and
farmers tho loss.
We can contract tomorrow with the
allies for a certain return for every j
bushel of wheal we can sell. By con-
trolling prices nt interior terminals
wo can assuro millers their supplies
and simplify transportation."
Sugar Situation.
As to sugar, Mr. Hoover said Amer-j J3
-nri...... ...-a ....,.,,...tl,ii- with llin ! O
allies in Culm and that the proposed
sugar commission could cooperate
with the ullicd purchasers, the Amer
ican refiners and Cuban producers,
stabullzlng and reducing prices as
well as removing speculative incen
tives. The proposed appropriation
of flSO.noo.OOO for government pur
chase of commodities, .Mr. Hoover
said, might prove too small but It is
needed for banking facilities.
"We feel confident consumers
prices of sugar and flour will be re
duced as well as others thru our co
operation with leaders of other
trades," ho said. "We must have
power to license grain elevators so
that they may play their part in the
team work of tho government."

Eyo witnesses say that when near

en effort to right tho machine, in or
der to rise again. Chatkoff either

course, but plunged headlong and
buried Its nose in the earth.
Wnodworth was killed instantly,
ono of his legs being severed and the
other crushed, suffering In addition
other terrible injuries. Chatkoff sus
tained serious internal Injuries, frac
tured his skull and suffered other
