THREAT 10 VETO
FROM PRESIDENT
F0RJ00D BILL
(Continued from Page One.)
. If tile two houses in conference
fail to a'ree on a measure with sham
teeth, if they pass anv fake like the
present senate bill, President Wil
son will veto it.
And his veto message will put the
responsibility squarely up to the un
faithful senate.
Veto Tlireatens Bill.
This is the siiftation in Washing
ton today. An iron note has crept
into the congressional discord. The
president's message to Congressman
Lever, demanding power to win the
war, is the prelude to harsher things.
The plan of the senate obstruc
tionists, the packing house senators
and the disguised pro-Oermans, was
to prophesy food control's failure
and then insure its failure by passing
a phoney law.
Sherman of Illinois, Heed of Mis
souri and others of the gray wolf
pack have said time and again that
Hoover would fail. Then thev did
everything in their power to bring
their predictions true by depriving
Hoover of means to succeed.
It was a merry game but not so
joyous in the face of the president's
determination to put the responsibil
ity where it belongs.
President Wilson is not going to
undertake food control without the
necessary (lowers. He is not going
to ask Herbert Hoover to assume an
imHssib!e job.
The administration determination
hns been strengthened by recent
count ry-wide reports showing the
eople the consumers and produc
ers alike have done their full duty.
People All Co-operate.
The farmers have raised tremen
dous crops in face of the highest
production costs in history.
The housewives have been saving
and scrimping.
Chicago's garbage has decreased
one-third, and the amount of fat re
covered from garbage over one-half.
Similar reports have come from
otehr cities, lmdisputahlc proof of
the success of the Hoover food con
servation crusade.
There are a thousand other proofs
of the earnestness and devotion of
the plain cop!e.
Hut there has been no correspond
ing fall in prices. Except for a few
minor temjMirnry drops, the cost of
eating has continued to mount.
While the senate was talking of
that old fraud, the "luw of supply
and demand," the food speculators
and hoarders were kic king it in the
slats, and accumtiiating huge stores
on which they hoc to realize enor
mous winter profits.
Svecnlntois I'icilltiui;.
A large part of the wheat harvest
hns passed into the hands of the
speculators, while congress has been
dnwdling. If the senate measure
should be enacted it would he impos
sible to do anything nbout it.
The ieople have done their part,
the farmers have done their. The
house has done its duly. The presi
dent and Hoover stand ready to pro
cure results.
(hily the United Slates senate has
failed. It must turn to the right
or the people will ask the reason
why, in such manner nnd form as
seems best.
The next few days will furnish
the answer to the question whether
the hundred million people of Amer
ica, led by a president devoted to
their interests, re less powertnl
than a handful of senators detuted
to the intere-ts of Germany and the
food speculators and hoarders.

resident of Jacksonville, Is visiting

Had not the fire hydrant on
Woodstock street been set low in
a ditch and allowed to be grown over
with weeds, at least one of the two
houses which were destroyed by fire
late Saturday afternoon on that street
might have been saved.
The fire Btarted in the house occu
pied by Mr. and Mrs. Grant Richard
son at 415 Woodstock street, and
owned by Dr. E. R. Seeley, when a
gasoline stove on which Mrs. Richard
son was preparing supper, exploded
during her absence at a neighbor's.
The fire had a good start before the
flames were discovered and had
spread to the home of L. O. Ossman
adjoining, which is owned by S. C.
Godlove.
The fire department drove right by
the hydrant, as the firemen were un
able to see ft. The apparatus con
tinued on to Second street, the fire
men still looking for the hydrant.
Then they drove back to the location
of the hidden hydrant, about 300 feet
from the burning houses, and after
beating about in the clover finally un
covered it. About five minutes were
thus lost before water began playing
on tlite flames, and it Is thought that
had work been begun sooner the Oss
man house might have been saved.
The Richardson house was com
pletely burned, and the Ossman house
partially burned and completely ruin
ed. Some furniture was saved from
both dwellings. The total loss caused
by the fire is estimated at close to
$5000. Mrs. Richardson collapsed
when on coming out from a neighbor's
home, she saw her own home going
up in flames, and had to be given
medical attention.
