HOOVER HEARS
OF CONDITIONS
IN TERRITORY

-.
Herbert Hoover, national food adj
ministrator, and his associates have
received the statement OF food and
labor conditions in Hawaii which was
recently forwarded to Washington by
the territorial food commission. Ac-
companying letters from Governor
Pinkham have also been received.
AS to the food problem of Hawaii, "
writes the administration to Governor
Pinkham, I'VE entirely agree with the
statements in your letter of October
10 that this can be handled success
fully only by uninterrupted attention
to the local business factors related
thereto. We appreciate particularly
the pains you have taken to describe
in detail the food and labor situations
in the Territory of Hawaii.
I In a letter to James d. Dole, chair.
man of the commission, the admins.
tration says:
"We feel sure Of the complete CO.
operation Of Governor Pinkham and
the territorial food commission, and
are looking forward with much inter-
est to the Development of food adj
matters in the islands.

que will be advised that the people OF

nearly as possible breadless day.
No butter with bread and jam.
Never more than one egg per head

abolished.
The league will make a special ap-
peal to those whose wages, or incomes
have been increased by the war.
