FOOD REGULATION
Being CONSIDERED
Administration May Advo-

Staple Crops.
BY GIBSON GARDNER

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2i-The cri
tical situation caused by the sharp In
crease lin food prices resulting in
riots and threatened riots, in many
parts OF the country, has brought the
Administration to the consideration
of remedies which up to this time
were reserved for the emergency to be
created by state of war. The only
relief, It is believed, is that to be af.
forded by the taking over of all staple
food products, such as wheat, meat,
potatoes, eggs, sugar and stored veg.

the nation efficiently to bear on the
necessities of war-when war comes.
Secretary Daniels has already explain
ed to Congress need for taking over
ship building plants and munitions

Administration recommendations along
these lines almost unanimous support.
The only new feature of the present
plan is the idea of speeding up the
whole operation and graphing with
the food problem without waiting for
an actual declaration of war.
To wait for the actual war emer-

The immediate cause of high prices,
1t is universally agreed, is speculation,
and there is no way in which specu.
lation in the necessities OF life can
be prevented in the face of war, or
threatened war, except by the inter.
venion Of the supreme governmental
authority. That 1t can be done in this
way has been shown In Germany,
France and England. Even with food
SO scarce that starvation faces the
nation, Germany has KEEP. the price OF
necessities within the reach of even
the very poor. Today food prices are
lower in England than i'll the United
States. Yet this country is the source
Of most of the food these Europeans
are eating.

and panic. The railroad system has
broken down. Car shortage, car con-
gestion-the failures due to operation
by bankers for dividends rather than
operation by railroad men for service
have driven the Administration to
conclusion that Government control Of
railroads is the only answer in case
of war.
1t is beginning to dawn on the in.
telligent leaders in Congress that pre-
sent time OF world crisis when the old
moorings must be cast loose, and the
nation must, like other nations, start
adventuring on strange seas. Things
which have been called "solialistic"
and other killing words are now in
practice and working as we'll as could
be expected, and the United States is
simply taking its turn at meeting new
and drastic remedies.

FEAR OF MISS PAUL
BEING HELD INSANE
Militant Friends Declare Jail
Physicians Threaten to Send
T. Her to Asylum.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 20.--At the
headquarters of the National Wom-
ems Party last night it was declared
the physicians attending Miss Alice
Paul in the district Jail, where she is
serving a seven months sentence for
plcketing the White House, have
threatened TO send her to an insane
asylum.
Announcement was made that two
shffragists, Miss Helen Paul and Mrs.
Agnes Morey held a conversation
with Miss Alice Paul. They stood un-
der her window in shadow. She was
reported to have told them that one
az the physicians examined her for
raind trouble. telling her she was the
leader of the suffrage disturbance.
Miss Paul, it was stated, emphati-
cally denied reports that she submit
ted to feeding. She said she had re-
sisted TO her utmost.
Miss Paul and Miss Mary Winslow
refused 10 abandon their hunger
strike today, and district Jail authori-
ties continue feeding them through
tube. Or. ]. A. Cannon said the suf-
fragists showed Improvement under
the treatment and reiterated that it
was not forcibly done, due to the ac-
quiesence of tile women when the
food was placed before them.
Investigation today showed that
the suffragists, by the payment of
small fine, could be released from
jail Miss Paul was fined S25 for
each of two offenses. or imprisonment
tor seven months. Deduction of the
nHfil Der of days she has served makes
the remaining sum S47.40. This will
decrease each day she remains in jail.
In few Instances where women have
been convicted of obstructing traffic
or s-picketing'' their fines have been
paid by outsiders TO avoid the notOri-
ETY. which the suffragists are seeking.
'suffragists protested to the authori-
tiets today against the feeding. Dis
trict Commissioner Gardner told Miss
Helen Paul, sister of the imprisoned
woman, that if she wanted recourse
10 any authority she could go to the
eobrts Miss Paul said her sisters
life is in danger.

STATE HAS RAISED
MORE THAN QUOTA
ARMY Y. NJ. {. A, FUND rs OVER
SUBSCRIBED. IN. OREGON
COUNTIES.

PORTLAND. Nov. 20.-P Portland
and oregon have substantially over
subscribed their quotas TO the Y. NJ.
c. A, war fund drive, maintaining the
high standard set at every previous
call for patriotic service in men or
dollars. Yesterday marked the tri-
umphant conclusion.
Yesterday at noon the big red tri-
angle clock at Sixth and Alder streets
whirled past its original quota and
rested at $3OS, 900. Some days ago,
when it became apparent that the
city's generosity was not to be satis-
fled by the quota, a new quota of
100000 was set. 1t is predicted that
the local drive will carry well toward
this when the final figures are known.
State Gives Generously.
As for Oregon. there is nothing but
smiling confidence evident in state
Headquarters circles. a total of $122,-
02l was compiled late yesterday. As
report after report of oversubscribed
quotas come in from the outside dis
tricts the grin broadens. Many towns
have voluntarily set themselves new
quotas and have filled them. Definite
figures for the state will not be had
for two or three days, as many distant
districts must report before the final
tally.
1t is certain however in the opinion
of state headquarters workers. that
Oregon, outside of Portland, will lar
gely oversubscribe its quota of $780,
600. Opinions vary as to how much
the surplus will be. but it is Selieed
What the state will exceed $150,000,
