"The probability of world -wide want makes immediate legislation to reiitilate food prices and distribution imperative," he said. "It is difficult for us as a nation to jrrnsn the mean- j inf of that statement. With bonnd jlcss wealth and undeveloped rcsouices we have never considered economy in the use of fond or methods of stimu lating production. Hut now, all tver this country, thousands are feelinjr the pinch of want. Increasing prices for the necessities of life have made thousands of families alter family customs. "The food pirates have for tmmlhs i been diligently profiting thru the needs of the people. Speculation has forced prices and food riots have al ready happened in this rich country. Today speculators are trying to buy up crops before the plants are out of the ground. Speculators gamble on human need, liy creating human want, these ghouls expect to coin enormous profits. Should our gov ernment fail to establish control be fore, crops move to the elevators and markets, the success of the war and the cause of human freed o(tn for which the allies contend, will be imperilled."
