Food Consumption IN u. S.
Increases Ten Percent

Hoover says. 1t is this class that is
responsible for the increased con-
sumption. These people in the past
earned "sweatshop" wages and had
little to spend on foodstuds.
While Americas appetite grows,
the food situation in the allied coun-
tries daily becomes more menacil =.
During the last week Hoover has
received official cablegrams from
Lord Rhondda, the British food
controller, bringing new warnings
that the United States exports Of
foodstufs must greatly exceed the
original estimates.
With proper authority, Hoover
told the agricultural committee, he
can go a long way toward meeting
the allied requirements; without t
the activities of the food admins
tration would be crippled.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-Food
consumption in the United States
increased more than 10 percent
during the last month, in spite Of
all efforts at conservation and con-
troll. This means, the house COM
mittee on agriculture has been told
by Food Administrators Herbert G.
Hoover that the food administration
must be granted drastic powers.
Hoover does not attribute the in
creased consumption to any lack Of
patriotism on the part of the Amer
lean people nor TO any failure in the
propaganda campaign conducted by
the food administration. The cOun-

ing high wages have allowed thou

International News Service:
LONDON, Feb. u. The house
of commons reconvenes today after
a recess of five days to find that
developments Of momentous i'm
portance have transpired in the
world war situation in the mean
time.
These events may be recently
grouped as follows:
(D-A peace treaty affected be-
tween the central powers and the
new republic Of Ukrainia.
(2)-Leon Trotzky, the bolshevik
foreign minister, announces that
the state of war existing between
Russia and the German allies is
ended and that the Russian army
will be demobilized on all fronts.
(3)-Germany delivers an ul-
timatum TO ROumania 10 make peace
at once or prepare for a renewal
of hostilities.
(4-Pres't Wilson delivers a
peace speech of world wide i'm
portance to the American congress

discussions and a warning TO Ger
many that she cannot look for peace
so long as the militarists dominate
the Berlin government with their
demands for annexations and in
IDENTITIES.
Premier To Speak.
Premier Lloyd George is expected
to address the house of commons
either this afternoon or tomorrow,
devoting the major part of his
speech 10 the recent inter-aIlied
war council at Versailles.
There has been much printed in
the British press since the Versail-
les council and the suggestion has
been freely ordered that the pre-
mier give some of the details con-
cerning the decisions reached.
News of the definite collapse of
Russia as a fighting factor in the
war has been received here with
utter calmness. Ever since the
bolshevik regime assumed control
at Petrograd it had been expected,
consequently the action of Lenine
and Trotzky caused no surprise.
Interest i'm Japan.
Chief interest now centers upon
Roumania and the future policy of
Japan. The japanese government
for some time has been viewing
with anxiety the situation develop
ing i'm Russia. Toxic feared that
Germany would contrive to get alb
solute domination of all of Russia
and might use the Austro- German
war prisoners in Siberia for an at
tack upon Japan possessions.
