FIRST PRINCIPLES IN FOOD
CONTROL.

In the first statement to the Ameri-
can people which he has power to en-
force by action, Herbert C. Hoover
lays down the basic principles for
government control of the price of
wheat, which the breakdown of the
competitive system has made impera-
tive.
What flour America can spare for
Europe will be determined by need,
not by frenzied bidding up of prices.
Warehouse charges must be Teasona-
Bile; wheat must not be stored more
than thirty days in large plants with
cut license; contracts for amounts il
excess Of trade needs will be voided.
IF necessary to enforce It's rulings the
country will buy the entire crop.
There is nothing inimical to the
farmer here unless by storing his own
wheat he has initiated the gamblers;
he is warned that this course will now
entail useless cost, as the price will b

be fixed by a commission in which
farp1 states will be well represented,
protecting him against any sudden
slump such as might follow peace pro-
posals. Gambling in futures must
stop; there are no futures.
Quicker than congress to bow to
the inevitable, the Chicago wheat pit
is said to have been cooperating with
Mr.. Hoover for weeks. Its opening

guess at what the fixed price may be.

yet far below the top price of $3.50
reached in the recent past. Flour will
be cheaper, yet we must use less of it.
TO those who hold the feeding of the
people above the sudden enrichment of
fofestailers these are wise and just
measures. They are applicable to 9TH
