HooUer Sees Craze Food
Situation Between Now
And Making OF Peace

Paris. France. Jan. 27.-CBy Ass0-
ciated Pressl "A statement given out
Sunday by Herbert Hoover, American
food administrator. said in part:
The dominant food problem in the
United states at this moment is a very
much bigger problem than the chi
cago packers II is a problem Of the
American farmer.
IF the packers profit Of or 3
percent on his turnover is too high,
it is the duty Of congress TO tax it
out of him. II the farmers prices
fair return, il behooves the country
to do some quick. clear thinking
The perplexities arising out Of in
ability to demobilize totally the food
situation OF the world in the period
between the armistice and peace make
the farmers position in the matter
OF much more INN diate concern than
the future OF the Chicago packers.
Taking II broadly. before the
European war began we exported
about five million tons Of food a year.
This year, we are prepared TO export
at the rate Of from IS 10 20 millions
OF tons The increase represents the
patriotic service OF the American
farmer. plus the voluntary sacrifices
OF the average American under the
stimulation Of the pleas from the
allied governments that without an
enormous increase in our food sup
plies their very lives would be
menaced.
1--WE are thus faced with a serious
problem with respect TO our own great
supplies, periodically accumulated. II
an early peace is signed and the mar
kets OF Europe are opened freely to
trade. there will be a greater demand
for food from the new mouths than
ever this surplus could supply. But
IN hn III hne -
and peace. we have a very difficult
situation"

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1s, 1919
THE "coLoRED" COMMITTEE.

The plan of the Roosevelt Memorial
Association to have segregated "col-
ored" committee in each state to raise
funds among the colored people is an
unnecessary drawing of the color line
and entirely wrong.
Such plan would have been repudi-
ated by Col. Roosevelt who was a con.
spicuous advocate Of equality He
practiced what he preached and did
many things to break down the color
line.
For the men who head this affair
to set the colored people aside is really
an attempt to put blot on the record
and memory of a great American.
The work could have been done just
as effectively by having colored men
as equal members of state and local
committees without the color line.
The editor of THE APPEAL received
an appointment as a member of a
"colored'' committee but declined to
serve.
