Piled With Questions.
Chairman Gore Of the agriculture
committee, and Senator Reed of Mis-
souri,, leading the opposition to the
bill, took leading part in question
ing Mr.. Hoover.
"The resort to these extraordinary
powers is only because of the war;"
asked Senator Gore.
"To provide not only more food for
the Allies, but for ourselves" Mr..
Hoover replied. Gwen if we had not
gotten into the war we should have
been up against this tremendous de-
mand from Europe and probably driv-
en- to some Legislation to protect our
own people"
Mr.. Hoover expressly disclaimcd
authorship, personal interest or re-
sponsibility for the bills provisions
extending to fuels.
"PM concerned only with the pro-
visions relating to food" he insisted.
The provisions for communicating
factories, mines and other plants, he
added, would not be necessary in ad-
minstering food questions.
Senator Reed asked who vas re-
sponsible for the clauses relating to
fuel and Senator Sheppard, of Texas,
suggested that President Wilson de-
sired that authority.
ut is not fair to the President to
say that" Senator Gore interjected.

Tropical temperatures were also re-

Il may say that l had several talks
with him on the bill and he expressed
great surprise at some of the things
that are in it."
Senator Reed referred to a section
which he contended would permit the
government to take from cribs and
bins grain stored there in excess of
the amount actually needed by the
farmer, and asked Mr.. Hoover's opin-
ion reardin the enforcement.
Patents and Formulas.
Mr.. Hoover added he did not intend
to enforce the section authorizing the
government to take charge of patents
and formulas.
He also said the food administration
had no desire of regulating consump-
tion of food as is being done abroad,
saying that would be left to the VOL
untary will of the people.
Senator Gore asked Mr.. Hover if
he would deny to the farmer the right
to judge the amount of crops he
should grow.
IF the government guarantees q
minimum price," Mr. Hover replied
we might not get the beneficial re-
suit for the farmer unless we also
have the power to limit imports"
Mr.. Hoover said "possibly" the bill
should be amended to give farmers the
right to determine their own produc-
| tion.
1--WE don't propose to go to the ex-
tent of fixing consumers rations,'
Mr.. Hoover added, "cxccpt as to no.
tells, restaurants, etc, regarding the
amount of bread portions to be scrv-
ed and the like. England did fool
; ish thing in trying to fix maximum
prices, failure wherever tried"
"Do you contend that under the bill
you can say to Senator Reed, for
instance, that he shall eat a soup
bone or a steak on certain days ?"
asked Senator Kenyon.
T don't think we have any such
right nor should we use it," Mr.. Hoo
yer replied emphatically "But we
should have the right to suggest the
use Of soup bone a day and see if
we can reach any agreement volur-
tarily."

the medium by which correspondence
could be conducted with the boys at

wounded the Red Cross would imme-
diately notify the family as to his

Mr.. Way is splendid and magnetic
speaker and completely captivated the
audience.
After Mr. Ways address Mr.. Charl-
ton DuRant took charge of the meet
ing. Mr. DuRant has been appointed
membe rof the State Advisory
Board for Clarendon County and is
charged with the duty of raising at
least 100000 in Clarendon County.
Mr.. DuRant's speech was probably.
the best he has ever made. Mr.. Dun
Rant stressed the seriousness Of th%z
War and stated that the people wouldS
not realize conditions until our own
flesh and blood were brought back
from France, wounded, sick and 9TH
erwise incapacitated for life. He
feelingly referred to those of us who
probably would not return and show
ed the great purpose and scope of the
Red Cross upon the battlefield. He
referred to the fearful conditions in
France, Belgium and Poland and en-
phasized the urgent need of funds
with which to render assistance to
those who are in absolute need.
After the conclusion of Mr.. Du-
Rants address subscriptions were
called for and within few minutes
something like $35O0.0O was raised.
Committees were appointed to thor
oughly canvass the town of Manning
and the County generally. Today a
large number of men throughout the
county devoted their entire time in
this work and it is confidently expect
ed that when all Of the returns are
in it will be found that Clarendon
county will have exceeded what was
expected of it.
There is no doubt about it but that
the work of the Red Cross is grand
work and should appeal to every citi-
zen. Those who have not contributed
yet should communicate with their
local committee, or direct with Mr..
DuRant.

RED CROSS MEETING TUESDAY AFTERNOON
housing Meeting in Court House Brought Out the 10y
atty and Patriotism Of Clarendon Citizens--Commit-
tees Appointed to Thoroughly Canvass the County 90
County Almost Raised Their Share in Yesterdaa
Meeting. / x<#s1

Yesterday afternoon was a memo
rable occasion in the history Of Clar-
endon County.
From now on no one can doubt the
patriotism and loyalty of this county.
Actions speak louder than words and
yesterday afternoon in the Court
House over $3500.00 was subscribed
in few minutes for the Red Cross.
The meeting had been extensively
advertised and representatives thru
out the county were present. A large
delegation came over from Sumter to
help present the cause. The after
noon before Sumter had raised
$35.00.00 and of course the Sumter
people were elated with what they
had accomplished, but it was not long
before it was found that Clarendon
would even excel Sumter had so nobly
done the afternoon before.
About 400 people had assembled in
the court room, a large number being
ladies. The meeting was opened with
prayer by Rev. f. M. Lightfoot, pas
tor of the Manning Baptist Church,
who was for many years Chaplain for
the Second South Carolina Regiment
Mr.. Neill O'Donnelln, of Sumter, acted
as Chairman of the meeting. He ex-
planned the Red Cross organization
and invited the people of Clarendon
County to form an auxiliar to the
Sumter Chapter. This was agreed to
and the following officers for the
AuXiliar were elected: Chairman,
Frank p. Burgess; Vice Chairman,
Mrs. George w. Williams; Secretary,
Mrs. R. E. Harllee, Treasurer, r. M.
Wells.
One of the features Of the meeting
was an address by Rev. William Way,
Rector of Grace Episcopal Church Of
Charleston. Mr.. Way recently re-
signed as Chaplain for the Second
Regiment and is thoroughly familiar
with military matters. In splendid
address he outlined the work of the
Red Cross, showing that it's activities
were not confined merely to the bat
tlefeld, but that it did both home and
foreign missionary work; that wher-
ever there was disaster the Red
Cross was the first to render aid ;
that it was the only organization that
was recognized by the Government
and through it alone would the SOL
diers be cared for. He showed that
it was the purpose of the Red Cross
