WILL PROBE COST
OF raw MATERIALS
Secretary Daniels Plans Investisa-
ton of Charges on Navy Supplies.

An investigation into the cost Of all
raw material required by the navy,
will be undertaken by Secretary Dam
iels, it was announced yesterday.
The Secretary's action is the result
of the coal price dispute and the dis
closure that the government was being
offered aluminium at price the de-
partment considers ineQuitable, but
which price was approved by the ad-
visory board of the Council of Ma
tional Defense, of which the man in
sole control of the nations aluminium
production. Arthur V. Davis. is a
member.
The Federal Trade Commission will
be asked to undertake the investiga-
tons and report on cost of produc-
tion to the Navy Department. Sec
retary Daniels will then consider the
figures and set price which the navy
will pay. This price will be based on
production cost, plus fair profit, to the
manufacturer. If the producers refuse
to sell at the government price their
products will be commandeered.
An investigation into the cost of coal
already is under way by the commits
sion on Secretary Daniels request.
Besides coal, the commission prob
ably will be asked to investigate the
oil, zinc. lead. steel and similar in
dustries supplying raw material to the
navy.
The army also, uses many Of the
raw materials in demand by the navy,
even more of some, such as aluminium.
and the understanding is that no fiat
contracts will be awarded by the War
department until the navy has its re-
ports on production cost in hand.
The plan of Secretary Daniels in
wolves a tremendous amount of de-
tailed labor. which will take months to
conclude. In the meanwhile he will
purchase on the basis of a percentage
of the price asked.

HOOVER SAYS NATION
MUST feed ALLIES
Food Administrator Gives Reasons
for Conservation of Resources.

Herbert Hoover and w. 8. Clifford,
of the food administration and the
Council of National Defense, yester-
day took. up the cudgels in an inspir-
ing defense of the administration
against the charge. sometimes heard.
that 1t is leaning toward State social
ism.
1t is neither State socialism nor
Prussianism, they say, but the de-
mand for the vindication of democ-
racy. Democracy faces a life-and-
death struggle with autocracy.
THE voluntary self-sacritices OF
every man, woman and child in our
democracy" said Herbert Hoover,
will be called upon to win the war.
AS the processes of mobilizing the
civil population to support our fight
ing men develop at Washington the
spirit of the people becomes more and
more evident"
Day by day the machinery for mus
tering every industry and every indi-
viGual voluntarily behind Pershing's
boys and the others soon to go to
the battle line Is being assembled.
One by one the great industries OF
the country are sending their leaders
to Washington for instructions as to
what they should do.
Today the potato growers and the
milk producers established agencies at
Washington to communicate the in
structions Of the food administration
to their members throughout the land
And Mr.. Hoover continues to urge
every man. woman and child to join
the food administration.
"Autocracy for years" said Mr.
Hoover has been organizing its re-
sources to the end that it has placed
one out of every seven of its popula-
tion on the fighting line, and has so
mobilized the civil population as to
afford them complete support Their
arrogant confidence that they will be-
come masters of the world is based
upon their belief that the materials,
the selfshness and the jealousy of in
dtvidual interests in democracy
makes it impossible for it to organize
such a strength.
we must feed our allies that their
people may remain constant II the
war. Liberty cannot be maintained
upon the empty stomachs of the
women and children. Out of our
abundance, by eliminating waste and
extravagance. it is in our power, and
in our power alone. to hold the wolf
from the door OF the world"

CHAMBER PROTESTS
STORING OF PAPER
Directors Refer Investigation Of
Conditions to Committee.

After voting sufficient money to in
sure the success of the big excursion
TO Marshall Hall on July II, the board
OF directors of the Chamber of Com
merce yesterday at their regular
meeting, made provision against any
Forthcoming situation that might in
terfere with the excursion.
Among the business matters trans
acted at the meeting was the consider
alton OF case brought up by L. ].
Cook, who declared that in spite of
the present shortage of paper many
of the junk men of this city had on
hand supplies of old paper. The rail-
roads will not accept any lot of old
paper, it was stated, unless there was
at least 20 tons in the consignment.
Mr.. Cook stated that there exists in
the District a law that forbids the
storing Of old paper in large quanti-
ties. The matter was referred to the
committee on District legislation.

TO name EXPORTS
ADVISORY BOARD
Five Officials Will Choose Aids to
National Council.

The Secretaries Of State. Agriculture
and Commerce, together with the food
administrator and Chairman Denman,
of the Shipping Board, are expected
to nominate Thursday an advisory
board to work with the new exports
council.
Much criticism has been made of
the various departments for what
has been described as clogging of
official wheels by the burdensome sys-
tenn of advisory boards, but in this
case Secretary Redfeld is convinced
that such a body will prove of great
help to his department in the work
OF directing American exports.
The exports control law will soon be
in operation. Secretary Redfield an
nounced this fact yesterday when he
issued a statement explaining that
"the delay in making the law opera
tive is merely from such necessary
adjustments as are possible to make
in advance. so 1t will move smoothly.

Citizen BODIES
To GET RECRUITS
Will Make Attempts Today to En-
list District Youths.

Efforts to secure Washington's quota
of the 5000 recruits still needed in the
Regular Army to bring its infantry
regiments up to war strength and pro-
vide for the necessary reserves to fill
future vacancies, will be made by a
number of Washington citizens asso-
Citations today.
At Petworth, Park View and Piney
Branch. where patriotic exercises in
commemoration of the signing of the
Declaration of Independence will be
held, it is planned to have recruiting
officers on hand to enlist young men
who wish to Join the army.
At Glen Echo and Chevy Chase Lake
war pictures will be shown and re-
cruiting booths opened tomorrow even
ing. william H. Baldwin, of the
District Council of National Defense.
and Charles S. Shreve, of the Fedora
tion of Citizens Associations. are far
from satisfied with the showing made
by the District during recruiting week,
and believe that 1t in no way repre-
sents the true patriotic sentiment of
the District.
While the exercises at the Soldiers
Home in Park Viey are not primarily
for the securing of recruits, it has
been arranged to make this one of the
features of the celebration.
