GERMAN PEOPLE WANT
FOOD, NOT FINE WORDS
10y MORNING JOURNAL spscis. LEASED wissl

The Hague, March 10 (via London)
Further extracts from the speech of
the socialist deputy, Herr Hofer, dur
ing the sensational food debate in
the Prussian diet are printed in the
Berlin Vorwaerts. The Vorwaerts
quotes Herr Hofer as saying:
THE government vacillates be-
tween fear of the agrarians and fear
of the masses like a reed in the wind.
If you insist on carrying on war you
must see that the people are ade-
quately fed. Does it not suffice for
the government to incur the hatred of
the whole world or do they also
want revolution at home? The peo-
pie have been fed on fine words long
enough; We demand deeds"

Will Not Ally Himself With
Independents,
BALANCE OF POWER
IS BELIEVED FADING
Both Sides Profess Conf
dence; Coalition Between
Them. Is Possible but Just
Now Not Probable.
,sr MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wrRsl

Washington, March l0.-The pos
sibility OF coalition organization
agreement between democrats and re-
publicans in the incoming house of
representatives, which meets April 10,
was considerably lessened today in
the opinion of many members by the
announcement OF Representative
Schan, progressive, of Minnesota, one
of the five so-called independents,
that he would not be party to az.
independent mvoement which would
block important legislation.
AS the bipartisan plan originally
was broached only to defeat dead
lock, should the Independents refuse
TO support either n republican or a
democrat for speaker, leaders of both
big parties tonight foresaw an aban-
donment of the movement.
Not Out for Patronage.
"While / am reserving my right to
vote independently, said Mr., Schall,
II am not going to join a group OF
men and block legislation for the
mere purpose of gaining patronage.
Patriotism means more to me than
mere party victory. ana I shall do my
best to help expediate public busl-
ness"
Republicans generally accepted the
development as meaning an addition
al vote for Representative Mann for
speaker. Mr.. Schall spoke in behalf
of the republican national ticket in
the last election, though he was elect
ed as a progressive because of local
differences.
Many objections to the coalition
plan were heard today among the re-
publicans, who said ii should be
agreed to only as a last resort and
argued that the party, now in the
course of reorganization, could not
hope to profit by n compromise with
the democrats.
Both Sides Confident.
Both sides still claim majority
both hoping for the vote of Repre-
sentative Martin, of Louisiana. pro-
gressive democrat Representative
Randall, prohibltionist, Of California
and Representative London, socialist,
New York, it is believed, probably will
vote with the democrats, and Repre-
sentative-elect Fuller, of Massachu-
setts, progressive, with the repupli-
cans.
Announcement today by Governor
Whitman that he will call a special
election to select u successor to the
late Representative Conry, of the Fiji
teenth New York district, was well
come development for the democrats.
They expect another democrat will be
elected, making the democratic total
215, within three of enough tS re-elect
Speaker Clark.
