REED OF MISSOURI CONTINUES NAGGING EXAMINATION OF
 FOOD BOARD HEAD
6Continued from Page One)

sa;d to bring out a point affecting su-
 gar
 Hoover said the food administration
 had asked grain dealers not to pay more
 for wheat than the price fixed by Con-
 gress. Reed tried to bring out that the
 price question was so put up to the deal
 CTS as to really make the transaction
 price fixing, but Hoover maintained he only attempted to stabilize prices, and
 denied that the food administration had
 done anything disorderly not authorized
 in the food law.
 WANTED RESULTS
 q take it that with the country
 at war the people wanted results" !" said Hoover. Tt is not fair to go
 into wheat conditions unless all phases
 are discussed and that would take a week. One thing is certain, the farm CTS no1v are getting more for their wheat, and flour is selling for less. Hoover would not acquiesce in Reed S statement that same force was nec- essary to get and. maintain so-called voluntary agreements on sugar prices. He said the food administration de- pended largely on the patriotism of re- liners, but that some authority was needed
 Senator Reed tried to develop that the food administration last fall ar ranged it so that beet sugar selling at 7.s5 would not come east of the Aileghenies, when cane sugar was it was done for the benefit of eastern cane lefiners.
 SUGAR SITUATION Hoover replied that eastern refiners had paid price for Cuban raws that htj even with that situation taken into consideration the beet sugar was bad | ly needed in the west and middle west and it was impossible to ship large quantities east because of the car shortage. He considered 1t a danger ous move to disrupt the sugar indus l try more than necessary to get the best price available tor the consumer and as equal distribution as railroad facilities would allow.
 After he had been questioned mi
 nutely on details Hoover remarked: T don't think you comprehend the whole situation. senator" The investigation again strayed to wheat and Chairman Reed went oyer many statements of Hoover when the food bill was being considered When the chairman again charged that Hoover had overstepped the bounds of the 1000 blli i1OOVcT QeclaTcQsn T do not agree with you at all. You are trying to make judicial de- cision. If the food administrations 5
 broken any laws that's for the courts to decide'
 WANTED NO APPLAUSE When Senator Jones was question : 1 ing Hoover on how the country had received the efforts of the food ad- ministration and Hoover had answered that he had overwhelming" support. Chairman Reed asked the New Mexico senator if lie thought that sort of tes- timony necessary.
 q 60 CT I wouldn't proceed along that line" retorted Jones sharply, and the crowd of 150 to 200 spectators ap- plauded.
 Chairman Reed admonished the spec ta+ors 10 keep quiet, and said: "Such testimony would not be permitted in d court"
 Possibly I can frame my questions to conform even to a Missouri crim inal courtroom" said Senator Jones. You have no experience in Mis- souri court" said Senator Reed. And I might say I'm glad haven't" answered Senator Jones.
