Washington, Feb. %. - The United
States government tOday-from Presi
dent Wilson to congress turned its
hands to the national food problem.
The president Will put the entire sit
uation before his cabinet. He is ex-
pected to fake some definite steps to
force an appropriation for an investi-
cation of prices through this session OF
congress.
Regardless of the fact that the fight
for funds has been lost in the house
committee, the appropriation viii be
sought in the senate and if it fails TO
receive attention there, will be taken
to the floor of the house, Secretary of
Agriculture Houston declared today.
In spite of the food riots and other
spectacular evidences of acute suffer
ing, as q result OF food shortages, Of
ficials here scoffed at reports of a pos
sible embargo on all food shipments.
Some intimated that perhaps some of
the clamors for food might be due to
systematic melting of foreign born wo-
en- in poor districts of the large cities
as to actual threatened starvation.
Rush Cars West.
Congress expected to take definite
action ON the situation before adjourn
ing Representative Meyer London,
New York, has introduced a bill asking
for an appropriation of $5,000,000 ~ith
which to buy food to be resold at "rea-
sonable prices" to the poor; and com
! bination Of senator's is meeting in Sc
cret, preparatory TO asking for $780,
100000 for the same purpose.
The car tie-up in the opinion of in
terstate commerce commission and rail
roads, was at Il breaking point today.
Railroads took advantage of the holiday
yesterday and clearing weather to rush
great strings of empty freight ears west
at express train speed
These will Immediately be filled with
the food supplies that have been piling
up in the middle west, and some relief
i'll eastern markets is predicted when
these shipments roll in. The number of
cars involved in the tie-up OH February
10 totaled 165,279
Fuel Shoraage Troublesome.
While the food situation threatens
drastic disturbances in the east. the
gas coal shortage is no less seriou in
the west.
AHc tclhlHItlGt pH CdI StTNICt VI the
American Railways association was un.
able, in the absence of represen, ,atives
today, to say what steps will be taken
to relieve this condition, which may
cause a serious interruption of service
light, heat and power companies in IS
towns and cities in the middle west.
In view of the tenseness of the situa-
ton, officials asserted, congress could
not adjourn without taking some action
on the legislation that has been laid
before it. Whether this will be in the
form of funds for temporary relief or
action ON exports and giving the inter
state commerce commission oil for its
iinvestigatory machinery, is still a ques-
tion.
