cording to indications here this morn<
ing.
The treaty will be accompanied
with covering letter which, accord
ing to the forecast sets forth Amers

of her small extent, Austria will need
economic and financial help to insure
her existence. No official summary OF
the territorial changes in the peace
treaty have been given out. but re-
ports from conference circles frond
time to time have Indicated that Sew
eral alterations in the original provt@
sions were to be made.
1t has been declared unofifcfally,
however, that the treaty did not pros
vide for a settlement of the Fiume
being that Austria would simply be
informed of the territory. she would
have to relinquish and that the dispo-
sition OF this territory In certain
cases would be left for subsequent
adjustment

HOOVER BLAMES

Says European Ports Are Over
flowing With Food
Bu The Assoctated Presa,

BIZ The Associated Press.
PARIS, Sept. IA distressing era
of speculation in food stuffs In the
United States. and throughout the
worlds primary food markets, is
largely responsible for high food
costs. in the opinion of Herbert Hoov-
er, chairman of the allied food organi-
cation, who on the eve of his depar-
ture for the United States. granted the
Associated Press an interview to-
day.
Wharves and warehouses in north
ern European ports are overfiowing
with food stuffs, principally meats.
chants all over the world. Mr.. Hoover
said.
These merchants, Mr.. Hoover de-
clared. had gambled on sales in Pol
and, Czecho -Slovakia, the Balkan
states and Germany at high prices
but these states have only a depre-
ciated local currency, and many
commodities are in danger of spoil
ing, as. the central European market
for foodstuffs is limited to the ability
Of the peoples to buy on credit.
"This years speculations. he said,
"are due in my opinion chiefly to the
belief OF food merchants and manu-
facturers that when the blockade
was removed there would be an er1or-
nous demand for foodstuffs and
other commodities in eastern and
central Europe. This speculation was
not due to any actual shortage at
present of actual supplies. This
speculative fever, which was not con-
fined to foods, was greatly stimulated
by the long delay in the removal of
the blockade until the peace treaty
was signed at Versailles. There Is
plenty of evidence that this was true
of foodstuffs In glutted parts in all
Of Europe, where only neutrals have
the means to buy"
Responding to an inquiry as to how
food speculation could be checked In
America, Mr.. Hoover replied:
Attorney General Palmer is on
the right track when he endeavors to
break down speculation and seeks to
secure powers never possessed by
former administrations to enable him
to accomplish this STEP"

BABY STATION
OPENS FRIDAY
Health Officer Thompson An
nounces- --Open z Days Weekly

Definite assurance that the Infant
Welfare station to be located In the
First National bank building will

week. was given this morning by DR.,
Charles 8. Thompson, health officer
rior woodwork and trimmings and
the furniture and apparatus Is in
course of installation.
DIR. Thompson will consult with thu
various doctors In charge of the sew
eral clinics before a regular schedulo
is announced, but the baby welfaer
station will probably be open two
days week from 10 o'clock until
noon in the morning, he said.
The opening of the clinic will come
as the elimination of one OF the
promises made by the board shortly
after it was organized last winter. Inc
original plan has been someWhap
modified however as is called for 9
milk depot for the convenience on
persons desiring pure milk. After an
investigation by committee or the
Health Board and following the res
commendations of the health offlcer
the board decided to substitute the
child welfare station for the milk
station, believing that better results
would be accomplished. :.
The advantages that station sucn
as the one to open this week has over
a milk depot are: The clinic will be
open the year round. it will include
advice on prenatal care as well as the
care of children twelve years ana
younger, 1t will be able to improve the
grade of milk through education py
creating a demand for Al milk In
stead Of simply providing good milk
while the dealers continue to sell poor
grade milk, and 1t will give the pny-
sicians and city nurses an opportunity
to get In closer touch with the mo-
theirs and little ones of the city.
The health officer said that all or
the nurses would be on duty when the
station is opened in order to receive
the benefit of the instructions that VIII
be given. The clinic will be sort OF
