RADICAL CHANGES MAY

Similar to Original Administration
Observation-Disclosures of Beans
Brought Into Debate

| Washington. July 16.-One of the
bitterest critics of Herbert c. Hoover.
Senator Reed. of Missouri. checked
the passage OF the food bill today by
a violent speech. A group of biparti-
san senators had agreed to put in the
necessary changes as the bill was dis
cussed but Reed held up the expedi-
ton of the measure.
Likening the probable food control
Ter TO J. Rufus Wallingford, Reed
called him bold, open and notorious
in his efforts to seek the place" said
he was 'cheerfully ignorant of
American conditions and termed him
"a successful and shrewd" food gamb-
Ter.
Mr.. Hoover is the author or mat
condltion OF which he complains and
for which he now seeks a remedy"
cried Reed in his iciest vein. "A man
who would vote TO give power after
reading statement made in New
YORK by one OF his subordinates, is
unworthy of seat in congress"
Republican and Democratic sena-
tors have agreed upon a bill which
closely resembles the original admin
istration measure and it is said, will

eliminated and control is limited to
food and fuel. The section prevent
ing members OF the advisory commit
tee OF the council of national defense

So has the section allowing the ad-
ministration power over licensing
business.
Senator Chamberlain, in charge of
the bill, said tonight that the COM
mittee would probably have the new
amendments printed tonight and
would be ready to offer them as the
various sections were reached.
Reed addressed himself to the first
section. He offered an amendment
substituting for presidential control, a
board OF five men headed by the sec
rotary of agriculture. He also insist
ed that the members should all be
