Herbert c. Hoover Tells Labor Repre-.
sentatives That Proposed Lawo
Will Bring Immediate Reduc-

Per Cent.

Washington, June 14.-Convinced
that creation Of food administration
will bring prices in the United States
down fully 30 per cent, organized Ia
Dor will get sQuarely behind the food
control bills pending in Congress and
urge their immediate enactment.
At a conference with labor leaders
and representatives Of the labor group
in Congress, Herbert c. Hoover prom.
lsed that the food administration, when
organized, would force prices to a lev.
ell at which the small wage Garner
can exist. Labor representatives told
Mr.. Hoover that unless costs fell the
Garner of moderate wages must get
an increase in pay or go hungry.
Officials of the American Fedora,
ton Of Labor and heads of the big
unions will send thousands Of letters
to local unions throughout the country
directing members Of trades unions to
urge on their congressman passage Of
the food bills before July 1.
No Time to Be Lost.
"The lever food control bill must
be passed quickly" Samuel Gompers
told the meeting, 80 that the PERM.
cious activities of food spectators
and pirates may be checked and con.
sumers may pay reasonable prices.
Labor organizations of the United
States will get behind this bill and
push it through"
Some of the labor leaders expressed
anxiety as to whether the food bills
were drastic enough to accomplish
their purpose, but Mr.. Hoover assured
them that the measures provided pow.
or enough to reduce prices. He asked
that labor remain patient until the
bills were passed and the food admin.

Some good hard sense is shown in
the following extract from a recent
speech of Senator Reed of Missouri:
"We are funny set of creatures in
this world. I have seen an ordinary
lawyer practicing at the bar who, when
he was called into consultation with
lawyers at the same side of the table,
they would express great doubt as to
whether he knew anything about his
own case. When they met him in the
forum as antagonists they unhesitat-
ingly attacked him with supreme con-
adence in their own power. I have
seen that man peddle his own petition,
I have seen his friends pe3dle it, to
have him appointed to judicial posi-
t1on' I have seen the disgust written
upon the faces of the members of the
bar at the supreme impudence of the
fellow asking for high judicial posi-
tion. I have seen him appointed, and "a
hours afterwards I have seen them
banquet him and call him judge, and
two months Afterwards they ,would
quote everything he said from the
bench as though it were said by the
Lord God of Hosts. Yet he knew no
more upon the bench than he did be-
fore. He had little more authority.
81 have seen men engaged in strug-
gle for political office; I have seen
them defeated by few votes; I have
seen the victor win by few votes or
by a few tricks; and then have seen
it suddenly claimed that the victor is a
man possessed of remarkable wisdom
and prescience, while the man who was
defeated is regarded as no longer
Morthy to wash the feet Of the great.
Yet between the two men there was
nothing but political accident. We
have seen this repeated over and over
again. / have seen men taken from
the obscurity Of private life, men who
had never won single position of
prominence, who had never done a
thing to attract public attention, who
had not risen to any commanding po-
sition in anything they ever undertook,
who had been merely ordinary hum
drum fellows of no special mark-I
have seen those men put into office and
suddenly they are quoted as though
they spoke with all the accumulated
wisdom of the ages. They knew no
more in office than they knew when
they were out Of office. You may take
q man from the obscurity OF private
life, you may elevate him to position
in the cabinet of the president, and a
great president, yet that man does not
know one thing more the day he went
into office than he knew the day be.

the day before he would have been
open to your challenge at every turn.
You would have refused to blindly fol-

have taken his judgment along with

TWILL PUT DEALERS IN !
| PROFESSIONAL RANKS
Man Who Sells Sporting Goods
VIII Be Put Out of
Amateur Class
BY H C. Hamilton.

tbhited Press start correspondent
New York, Feb 9.--It was almost a
ready made fact early today that dele
gates to the annual meeting of the
United States National Lawn Tennis
will make Maurice Il. MeLoughlin a
professional when they convene at the
Waldorf.
The only chance to overcome the solid
front that will be presented in the east
will be for the western men to win over
the few clubs in this section who have
not instructed their delegates.
The amendment to the bylaws will
make any tennis player who engages
in the sporting goods business a profess
sional-following the example set by
the National Golf association when it
made Francis Ouimet and other promi-
nent golfers professionals.
The tennis players will not be pro
fessionals for a year and, according TO
the way the law is now contemplated,
will make them professionals only so
long as they are engaged in the bust
ness. This probably will be changed to
make them outright professionals, with
no chance of a drawback.
The question of location for this
years national tourney also promises
to start something, even though the
West Side club at Forest Hill seems to
have the rail. Many players have been
dissatisfied with the West Side club
and there undoubtedly will be an efofrt
to have the tourney taken somewhere
else.
