ARMY FOOD ORDERED
SOLD AT ONCE
House Instructs Secretary Baker to
Sell S120,000,OO0 Worth-Demo-
cratic Substitute Failed.

WASHINGTON, July 3O.-After an
all-day wrangle the house last night
adopted resolution, reported out by
the war investigating committee, request
ing See Baker to place on sale without
delay surplus food products held by, the
war department, valued at Sl26 900 ,O00 .
The vote on the resolution was 266 to
and was taken after the house had re-
lected $50, to ia, substitute resolution
offered by Democratic members of the
committee providing that the secretary
be requested to put on the market such
part of the surplus as is reasonably cap
| able of being distributed and sold, and
! providing for sales organization at gov
eminent expense.
With this substitute out of the way
the house adopted, l52 to 100, an amend
ment by Representative Kelley, Republi-
can, Pennsylvania, directing that the
distribution be through the parcel post
| A point of order against this amendment
| by Chairman Graham, of the war investi
| eating committee, in charge of the legis
lation, was overruled
The chairman was outwardly hostile to
| the amendment, but it seemed to meet
F., popular favor on the Democratic side
| When the vote was announced the Dem
ocrats applauded, some of them openly
| jeering the opposition, because of its fail
ure to get the resolution through without
| amendment.
After fighting all day and falling t
rally votes enough for substitute, pre-
sented as part of the minority report
the Democrats supported the selling plan
and it was adopted by rollcall.
/ The Republican majority OF the wa
investigating committee charged Secreta
~ Baker with Withholding the food from
the public to benefit private interests
| A minority report submitted by the Dem
| kerats on the committee included state
ment of the secretary saying the polio,
has been and is to sell in the best mar
kets and as speedily as possible
