TACT, STX SENATE STRIVES TO KILL FOOD e BILLBYDELAY Object of Intermni'ile Discussions Is to Hold Up Measure Until Too Late to Be Effective Planned for Seed ing Time, Harvest is Here and Still They Talk and Wrangle. Ily GlLSON CJ ARDNER. WASHINGTON. July 3. Food log j.slutlon has struck tho snag of delay In tho United States senate. Again tliat body is determined to be the "greatest deliberative' body in the world. The committee on agriculture has taken the houso bill and all amendments and has decided to write ail entirely new food control law. The whole proposition is to be en larged. The senate proposes that cot ton, leather and hteel be Included hi the price control powers. Already fuel and transportation have been added to food an subjects of control, and Just to tako on an insuperable cmharraKHiucnt, the prohibition ques tion has been linked up with the food control legislation. Joker In Seizure On use. As the law passed the houBe there Ir a clause which would put an end to boor and light wines. e Consumption of whlnky and distill ed liquors would not be stopped since there Is u three-year stock of these in bond, and the preideut'a power to take them over Is not coupled with ' nay appropriation enabling him to do so. This feature of the bill looks In sincere and would certainly prove In effective. People who sincerely wish the food problem solved are much disappointed at the attitude of the senate. In their view the problem of curbing food prices is a sufficiently difficult prob lem without copuling it with any oth er problems. The liquor problem, they feel, Is quite big enough to hi solved by Itself. The same Ik truo as to tho price of steel, leulhiT and other commodities than food. Hut at tho moment these are problems less Important than the food problem. All Menus for lMtiy, Delay In passing a proper food bill will defeat tho purposes of such bill This legislation was Intended origin ally to deal with the seeding time That time has already lapsed. The beginning of the harvest Is here, and congress still talks. No matter how truthful or eloquent the speeches now being made, or to be made, In the United States senate, no matter how profound t lie dellbera Hons of the committee on agriculture, no matter how excellent In theory the committee's project for a new bill, all these things amount to a denial of notion at a time when nothing but Im mediate net ion will meet the situation. lTude or even bungling legislation promptly enacted will be greater wis dom than the most polished legisla tive product which comes too late. Why No Action . It appears to be almost uualmously ngreed in both branches of congress that the president should have the owtT to dflfgate some miui like Her bert Hoover to conserve and manage the fooil supply of America and to cut out the speculative profit and Insure jeasoiiaMe prh es to the consumer. The house has passed a bill which It may reasonably he hoped would ac- coiuplihh soinethlnu alony these lines. The senate can defeat this measure by delay or give it a chance lor effective enforcement by prompt eaactmcnt. The sincerity of the sen ate and many individual senators will l6 subject to this test at this time. I CONFI E HOl.OONA.

In other words his moving pictures will show Mount Mazuiua as it originally stood ages ago In all Its grandeur and beauty. Then the spectacle will show the great mountain erupting, followed by the wonderfully, awe-lusplring sight of the explosion by which its top was Idown off, leaving tho huge crater now water filled and known as Crater Lake, one of the world's great won- (1,'IS.
