EARLY ENACTMENT OF FOOD CONTROL
 BILL IS EXPECTED
Clause Empowering President To Fix Maximum Prices For Foodstufs Is Stricken Out of Measure.
(By Review Leased Wire).

WASHINGTON, June H. Early enactment of food legislation will be insisted on by the administration, it was clear today after a delegation of labor leaders and congressman called on President Wilson to ask that he go before congress to urge acton on the administration bills.
 Samuel Gompers, who headed the la Dor delegation, said afterward that the president was in full accord with the opinion of labor leaders that food control is essential at the earliest pos sible moment The first food bill, de- signed to stimulate production, has pasased both houses, but is held up in conference. Today the second, or reg ultory bill, was reported by the house agricultural committee after the provi- sion giving the presidential power to fix maximum prices had been eliminat- ed. The minimum price feature for farm products was retained.
 The regulatory bill, as reported, makes the president food dictator with power to authorize some agency to carry out provisions of the law. The intention is to create as soon as the bill is passed a food administration commission with Herbert c. Hoover at its head. The measure gives the wid- est powers, and would permit govern ment operation, if necessary, of food producing plants, storage houses and coal mines. The government could purchase and distribute food supplies if it became necessary.
 The house committee left in provi sion authorizing the president to limit or prohibit use of foodstuffs in the manufacture of alcoholic liquors, but during the day the senate agricultural committee voted to make this provi- sion a separate issue.
