HERBERT HOOVER
CONTINUED from page one

the case of one large manufacturer who
followed this suggestion implicitly, only
to find that over a score of manufactur.
ers of imitation goods sprang up on all
sides, supplied the trade to his great
damage and loss and we were powerless
to give him any protection in his pat
riotic action. Surely it is better that
the conservation of sugar should be
made in the luxury trades and that
they should have protection in making
it than we should draw on household
supplies.
"The recent experience with sugar
also serves to prove the necessity to
have some further powers in distribu-
tion. During the entire sugar shortage
the gross supply amounted TO 80 per
cent of normal consumption, yet we
had sporadic famines and privation all
over the country because no organized
distribution could be effected. The
greedy got the sugar and the others
went without.
AS to conservation measures neces-
sary to apply to commodities needed
for the production and preservation of
foodstuffs, may cite the case Of am
monia, which is crucially necessary to
maintain our cold storage warehouses,
in which must repose over $500,000,000
worth of food from time to time. The
production of ammonia in 1917 was
about 13O,OOO,OOO pounds; of this, the
demands of the army and navy for
explosive purposes are estimated to us
as being 150,OOO,OOO pounds per an
mum and that the amount necessary
to maintain cold storage warehouses is
forty million pounds per annum. In
other words there is an absolute short
age of sixty million pounds per annum
at the present moment, which may later
on be partially reduced by increased
production.
''Yet ammonia is being used to very
considerable extent in the maintenance
of skating Kinks, in the cold storage of
furs, alcoholic drinks, household am.

llonia, etc.

monla, etc.
II think the war department has
recognized that the maintenance of the
cold storage warehouse is vital to the
food supply of our people and that
they may, therefore, themselves be
Obliged to reduce the amount of explo-
sives manufactured and thereby pos
sibly jeopardize our military possibili-
ties until production can be built up.
"Another typical case of this kind
lies in the question of tin cans. 1t
would seem to effect no great hardship
on the American people if the use of
tin plate and tin foil in toilet articles
and for containers in such other
articles which can be established in
either glass or paper cartons, were lin
tied.
~ feel certain that unless some effec-
tive control of the matter is taken that
we will be unable to preserve the very
large amount of fruit, vegetables and
meat which must necessarily go into
tin containers.
''We have carried on an extensive
campaign for voluntary conservation.
This effort has brought beneficial re-
suits in many directions through the
fine sense of service and self denial
in our people. The great majority of
trades cooperate with us in the most
patriotic manner, but the minority who
will not follow not only prejudice the
patriotic but discourage and undermine
their efforts. The demands as they have
developed during the last sixty days
are, I believe, greater than can be
borne on a purely voluntary basis. |
hope that it will succeed, but 1 think
it only right to point out that if it
fail, the grave responsibilities cannot
be left upon my shoulders, if congress
should consider that nothing further
is necessary by way of legislation"

Roy HixsOn Writes
From Fl. OglethrOpe

Ft Oglethorpe,. Ca, Jan. 13, 1918
Mrs. L. B. Hixson,
176 N. 25th ST, Salem, Or.
Dear Mother:
received your letter five days ago
but as I have been on the sick list
with bad cold I did not answer. This
was too much of a change for me, as
was for several of the other fellows
Six of the forty three that are in the
same barracks that l am, are in the hos
Ipital. Four or five more are lying
around ON their hunks, not able to &c
out and the rest of them have bad
colds.
l got all the presents, also the Jour.
nails L enjoyed the candy very much
and certainly can make use Of the
handkerchiefs with this cold.
We got our orders to leave the Oath
and left on the 26th, got here on the
29th. Had a good trip, had better feed
on the train than what we got in
camp, which was surprise. We came
through Dallas, Texas, and Memphis
| Tenn.
We arc out about twelve miles from
Chattanooga Don t think much of the
town, it has a population of about 75,-
900.
Ft. Oglethorpe is adjacent to Chick
amauga Park. The park is an old bat
tie ground of the Civil war. There are
guns and monuments around every
where marking the locations of the
different organizations that were in
the tattle
The sun VAS shining when we left
San Antonio but it was snow and ice
when we got here. Had a small blizzard
last night. Our quarters are lots more
comfortable than in San Antonio. [
wish | could have met AL before I left.
Our time is short here from the looks
of things. Every one seems to think
that We are going to Detroit and get
some of the new Liberty trucks and
drive them across country to New
York If we do it will be some cold
drive.
1 have not drilled or hiked any since
we have been here on account of my
feet. We drilled some before we left
down there and they got on the bum
there. l we got to go to the hospital
some day and have a board examine
them. If / go and the bunch leaves
this week 1 may be left behind. | con
suited one of the best civilian doctors
in Chattanooga and he said there was
no practical way of Strengthening my
big toe, but its hard telling what the
army doctors will want to do, and it
is hard telling what I will be when |
come out. Hoping this finds you all
well and many thanks for the Xmas
presents.
With love to all
ROY.

MILLION MEN
WILL BE AVAILABLE
If BILL is PASSED
Senator Chamberlain May Re
consider His War Cabinet
Bill He States Today
By L. @. Martin

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Washington, Jan. 29-Two million
men will be available for the draft in
class one, if congress passes the bill
automatically registering all men who
have become 81 since June 5, Provost
Marshal General Crowder told the sen
ate military committee today.
This will make it unnecessary to go
out of class one to get the army, he
predicted
Crowder told the committee the bill
will not exempt men who have passed
the age of 81 since June 5. Secretary
Baker told the committee he thought
such men would be automatically ex
empted.
"I am amazed the secretary should
think SO, Crowder said. 81 am great
ly opposed to- letting men pass out of
the eligible list when they become 81.
'That may be done later, but it is
not contemplated under this bill"
Crowder urged that the bill be amen
ded to allow special drafts for skilled
workmen.
When such men are drafted they are
not to count against the district IS quo
ia. Crowder said this viii prevent 60
ing into class 2, 3 or 4, as might have
to be done in some communities if the
skilled men were deducted from the
quota.
Senator Chamberlain today decided
to submit his "war cabinet" bill again
to the Judgment Of the committee be-
fore reporting to the senate.
On the heels of Secretary of War
Baker s sweeping statement before the
committee yesterday several members
protested that a favorable report on
the measure was secured originally
when about half of the committee was
absent.
81 would rather have the bill beat
en- in committee than give anyone the
chance to say | had railroaded it, "
Chamberlain said
Sentiment against overthrowing the
present war department organization
and substituting an entirely new
war cabinet" as specified by the
measure, is increasing in congress to-
day. While enthusiasts over the bill
declared Baker had shown need of it
rather than otherwise in his statement
yesterday, a majority are believed to
hold that a great change now would
impede progress rather than hasten it.
The committee forged ahead with It's
probe work today, hearing Chairman
Howard Coffin of the aircraft produc-
tion board in executive session.
