FOOD LEGISLATION

Wilson Instructs Hoover to
Immediately Organize for
Food Conservation.

Washington. -- Congress delay In

directing Herbert c. Hoover to pro-

and elimination OF waste through the
cooperation Of volunteer forces.

been announced by Mr., Hoover, who
plans to reach the women through the
state defense councils and through

food in the kitchen and how to pur-

President Wilson's insistence that
the food bills be speeded up caused
the senate to put the food control bill
next on the calendar and taken up
Monday when the house also began
debate on the bill The measure was
reported to the senate without recon.

EXPORT BOARD TO Be
NAMED BY PRESIDENT

Washington.-To meet the situa-
tion created by congressional delay
in passing food legislation the ad-
ministration demands. President Will
son will appoint board of export
control. to have drastic authority
over American exports-particularly
exports of food.
The purpose OF the new board will
be to formulate regulations for and
give advice to the licensing bureau
authorized in the recently enacted
export license bill.
The licensing bill is designed to
prevent exports to European neutrals
from reaching the central powers.
Withholding by congress of the au-
thority contained in the r-Cham-
berlain food bill has left the federal
government unable to cope with the
food situation and neutrals now are
reported TO have bought up enormous
quantities of grain. Unless some way
is found to prevent this grain from
leaving the country the allies and
the United States both would be SER
iously handicapped in a vigorous
prosecution of the war.

WAR BUDGET SIGNED
Approprlates ss,s4o, ,ooo. 900, the Great
est Sum Ever Voted at One Time.

Washington. The $S,S40. .000, ,00e
war budget, long delayed by congress
on technicalities, became law when
President Wilson affixed his signature
to the measure,
The war budget, known as the ur-
gent deficiency bill, appropriates the
greatest sum ever voted in lump by
any legislative body, Its appropria-
tions total sum far greater than the
total cost of any war in which the
United States has heretofore engaged.
The principal appropriations are for
putting the army and navy in fighting
trim.
The most important single provi-
sion of the measure is the appropria-
ton of $75O.OOO.O 900 for the construc-
tion OF an American merchant marine
to carry food and munitions to the
entente allies. The delay in making
this money available threatened for
a time seriously to delay the building
OF the food fleet" under the direction
Of General Goethals and the shipping
board.
