Ninety million bushels Of wheat

needed, il must be furnished by
the United States and the citi-
Gems of the country are expected
to economic sufficiently to make
possible the meeting of the de-
mand. In astatement issued by
Food Administrator Hoover this
was set forth in plain and en-
phatic language yesterday. Legis7
lation necessary to give the food
administration power to enforce
its demands is being prepared.
Hoover, in his statement, plain
ly tells the people of the United
States what they must do to meet
the absolute necessities; of the
Allies for bread. He states the
need as a fact and the only way
to meet that need is in a more
strict economy than any yet
practised by the people. Such
economy is to be enforced and to
do so there will be required new
and additional powers for the
food administration. This legis-
lation is already in course Of
preparations TT will enable the
enforcement Of conservation by
hotels, restaurants and other es-
Establishments which furnish meals
or lunches and will extend even
into the households when its APP
plication there is needed.
Ever since the cablegram was
received from Lord Rhondda
some such action as that Of yes
terday had been expected from
Hoover. The message told Of the
urgent needs Of Great Britain, the
further cutting down of the size
of the loaf in France and OF still
greater famine conditions in
Italy. Since then Hoover has
been investigating the needs Of
the Allies and securing figures.
With these in hand he issued his
statement.
1t is. expected the new legis-
'ation will materially broaden the
powers of the food administration
and make them clearer on points
where some doubt has existed,
and more specific in other details.
Following the passage of such
amendments to the law the mat
ter of food control can be carried
|iorwardNwith greater vigor than
has heretofore been possible and
ii is expected that some steps
toward the arationing OF certain
food stuffs may be pnt into early
Operation. 1t is understood that
this would be in line with the
plans that were formulated in
Paris by the Inter-Allied War
Conference and recommended by
the delegates to the respective
nations. -,-.,..
