Washington, Dec 1.-The eXecu- tive budget system of Maryland, the only state with such scheme of fil- anclal control, was gwen general av- proval today in a discussion at the ninth annual governors conference Those attending the conference were dinner guests tonight at the white house. Covers were laid for about 40 governors, former governors and sovefnors-elect and half as many w0- men of the governors party.
 Interest in the conference was quickened today by projects that Sec. retary of War Baker and Brigadiet Mann, chief of the division Of mili.a affairs might discuss the status al the national guard before one If to morrow's sessions. Resolutions were adopted today inviting them to speak after some discussion. Gayerno.

FOOD PROBLEM 0F
 ENGLAND DISCUSSED
MAY BECOME NECESSARY TO MAKE ABSTINENCE OF GER
 TAIN FOODS COMPULSORY.

London. Dec 14- Baron Davenport speaking for the first time as focd controller il the house of lords. today said the solution of the food question resolved itself into one oi system cl rationing If was not en3ush to main tain the food supplies, but it was over Whelmngly essential that they be dis tributed Iairly
 The food controller said his first duty would be to ascertain the quality oi food stocks available and the stocks visible There were many un- patriotic peope, he said, trying to get hold of supplies in excess of their wants.
 My remedy said Baron Devon -ort will be to adjust the supplies coming into the country so that every body will have an equal chance of getting q lair share-no more and no less On account of many people buy ing up supplies sagar cannot be got at all A remedy must be found for that. Possibly the only way wiG b. by a system of rationing.
 It was obvious. Baron Davenport added that general diminution n the consumption of staple food was necessary At present this diminr. ton could only be brougat about by voluntary abstinence. but if voluntary abstinence was moi successful, it would be necessary to make absti- nence compulsory.
