RATION
BILL APPROVED
BY COMMITTEE
May Cut Breadstuf Con-
sumption One-quarter.
Beef 10 Per Cent.

The first Of Food Administrator
Hoover's twin food bills. proposing
to put the nation on rations. was
reported favorably yesterday by
Chairman Lever, of the House Agri-
culture committee.
With it was made public Hoover's
evidence at the committee hearing,
in which he declared the nation must
cut down twenty-five per cent on
breadstuffs. ten per cent on beef.
twelve to fifteen per cent on pork,
ten per cent on sugar and five per
cent on dairy products.
Carte blanche almost is given the
Food Administrator to regulate food
from the farm to the table or the
bakers shop. Committeeman were
assured that the portions of meat,
bread and other foods in public places
will at once be regulated by the bill.
SIX Ounce Steak.
1t is proposed for instance that a
steak shall weigh no more than
six ounces per person. Home con-
stricted, but 1t is affected by in
functions to manufacturers and dis
tributers.
Hoover emphatically advoca ted
seed subsidies to farmers for in
creased production. He told the
committee that last years corn crop,
far from being the heralded rec
ord-maker was 100000, 900 short of
normal. when its poor quality was
considered.
Several Republicans Joined the
Democrats in making the favorable
report. Opposition of others was
based on individual paragraphs.
Hoover told the committee one
chief reason for pressing the bill
was that certain hotels were using
their present patriotic pledges of
on the public.
The other of the twin Hoover
bills - proposing prices-will be
taken up at once by the committee.
Its paragraphs to fix cotton and
corn prices have aroused bitter op-
! position-all undersurface beacuse the
bflrs text has been kept supposedly
secret.
Consumption Has Increased.
"our food consumption per capi-
tar" said Hoover in the hearing,
has increased about 10 per cent
since 1914. That 1 think can only
be attributed to the increased pros
perity of the country"
1t was necessary, he said, to take
great care that rationing re-
strictions do not fall on the classes
OF the community already on a
minimum basis of nutrition. Twen-
ty and possibly thirty per cent of
the United States population was
not overfed even under present condi-
tions, he estimated.
When members attempted to get
from Hoover an admission of waste
in brewing of barley, rice and corn,
he replied that much of this grain
was useful as mash for cattle.
Altogether" he said, THE brew
ing question is tangled skein
which is difficult to solve as a con-
serYation measure"
