BATTLE OVER FOOD
EMBARGO LOOMING
AHEAD Of CONGRESS
Fitzgerald Declares Purpose to
Prepare Bill and Press 1t for
Passage Early in the Ses-
sion


WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Represent-
alive Fitzgerald, Democrat, chairman Of
the house appropriations committee, an
nounced today that he favored an en-
barge on foodstuffs and that it was his
purpose to prepare a bill and to press
the subject early in the coming session
Of congress.
"Two reasons chiefly impel me to IA
vor embargo legislation on foodstuffs,"
said Mr.. Fitzgerald. cit is the most
effective weapon in our controversy with
Great Britain over ner unwarranted,
outrageous and indefensible blacklist of
American merchants. AS our foodstuffs
are needed abroad, an embargo will be
more effective than weary months OF
diplomatic negotiations which end in
the continuance Of the indefensible prac-
tees against our rights.
The embargo also should be imposed
for purely domestic reasons. The prices
of foodstuffs have reached levels that
are bringing widespread distress to the
country. Many hundreds of thousands
of cur people are suffering from lack Of
the necessities OF life. Wholesale prices
in many commodities are less abroad
today than they were a year ago; here
the retail prices nave advanced alarm
ipgly.
THE argument that nothing should
be done to interfere with the expansion
OF our foreign trade does not impress
me. Of what profit is IL If your foreign
trade is TO grow with leaps and bounds
while our own people are brought to the
verge Of starvation as a result of 1t.
THE time is ripe for the embargo
and l hope to see legislation speedily
enacted to impose it. Let America be
for Americans first"
1t seems to be generally agreed here
will see a fight over the embargo pro
posal which is backed by monster Pc
titions signed by thousands Of persons
and organizations.
President Wilson and the cabinet are
understood to oppose il.

EX-SenatOrLorim Saws He
Fought Them Twenty
Five Years
TELLS THE STORY OF
ORGANIZING BANK
Claims That He Was Ignorant of the
Transaction Which Led to His Indict-
ment on Charges of Embezzlement
and Conspiracy.

CHICAGO, April IA. = Ex-United
States Senator Lorimer, who is being
tried on charges of embezzlement and
conspiracy growing out of the failure
of his bank, the La Sale Street Trust
and Savings bank, testified in his own
behalf yesterday.
From earlier witnesses, including
business and political friends and two
depositors who lost money in the fail
ure, it appeared that Mr.. Lorimer was
a faithful husband and father and
that . his word was as good as his
bond - Among these witnesses was
Mrs. II. o. Sprogle, wife of city Of
fetal who forty years ago was Mr..
Lorimer S Sunday-school teacher. She
told of how he BACKED boots and sold
newspapers to support of his mother,
an invalid.
Later Mr.. I.orimer is expected to
relate much of his autobiography as
he did while unsuccessfully defending
his seat in the United States senate
Mr.. Lorimer said that antagonism of
the Chicago newspapers lay ut the
root of his troubles in the senate and
at the bank.
"They have fought me for twenty
five years because | would not do
their bidding said Mr.. Lorimer.
''They have not changed now, unless
for the worse
When the proposition of starting a
bank was put to Mr.. Lorimer, the
witness said, it was thought his wide
acquaintance would enable him to
build up big business. He wanted to
establish it for his two sons. At that
time, the witness said, he was worth
between $450,000 and $550,000, and
he intended to buy about 1925, goo
worth of stock in the bank.
On the day announcement was made
| of the bank 5 organization, the wit
ness said, q Chicago newspaper print
ed story that $1,000 was paid for a
vote to send Mr.. Lorimer to the Sen
! ate.
= knew l would need ali my time
and much money to fight this charge
/ as l determined at once to demand an
/ investigation by the senate. I was
| busy for months after with this fight

publication of the story caused many

scriptions, and the man we had in
