REED OPPOSES
SENDING FOOD
TO FOREIGNERS
Foolish to Try to Feed u, S,
and World, He Says,

WASHINGTON, Aug s--VariouS
solutions Of the problem OF the high
cost OF living were offered in the
course of a warm debate on the Qucs-
tion in the senate late yesterday
Among the remedies proposed was
abandonment OF government price X
Ing and of the administration policy
OF draining the nations resources to
feed the countries ot Europe
Senator Reed Of Missouri who made
The principal speech on the subject
warned the senate against the inter
nationalist doctrine as embodied III
the league OF nations and declared II
was time for the government 10 give
less attention to the peoples o,
Europe and more TO the question ol
supplying the neceSsarieS OF lite to
the people at home.
Soldiers Restore Balance.
The senator also suggested that II
sll the American soldiers were
brought back from Europe and re
turned to productive industry there
would be a tendency TO restore the
balance between production and con
sumption which was overturned when
the millions of men were taken out OF
industry to 40 to war
A pertinent suggestion IN Senator
Reeds speech was this
II am OF the opinion that we
would better be looking after the grea,
problems that concern the bread and
butter, the fuel and housing Of our
own country than TO be undertaking
u look after the spiritual and ply
sical and financial welfare OF the
hrntlemen from Timbuctoo and other
remote parts Of the world
Kicks on Feeding Europe.
"If we cannot feed ourselve. We
ought not to be undertaking to feed
she world. II we cannot keep prices
here within the limits of our peoples
purchasing ability. we ought not to
Be spending our money and giving
!, our goods to people who are 10000
miles from our shores and who
brought their misfor,unes upon them
selves"
Senator Reed declared the propos al
made by International banking cor
porations 10 take money from this
country to rehabilitate Europe under
the gusyaStee and protection OF the
propoSa ,Sague Of nations comes a,
the very time when our people are
elamorinR TO congre. and other legs-
lativc bodies TO grant them some re-
lief at home" He could see no good
In il and cautioned the senate to be
ware OF embarking upon such a
policy.
Senator Cronna. who is from the
Great wheat growing state OF North
Dakota. told the senate that Food
Administrator Hoover was more "a
plane for the ruling high cost oi
u Odstuffs than any other agency IL
the United States. He said the grair
corporation organized by Hoover and
now directed by Julius Barnes made
100000 on the 1918 wheat crop.

What We Need

Oklahoma City needs more homes and is get
ting them just as fast as it is physically possible
to build them.
But Oklahoma City needs business buildings,
too This is good time for business firms to take
look into the future, see what their needs will
be and plan accordingly.
New office buildings are needed here. There
is need for more hotels. Business blocks and
store rooms must be made available for growing
business. More warehouses are necessity
These buildings should be planned now Even
though they are it will be some time before they
will be available and the sooner they are built
the better it will be for the city.

Tense of the Ladies' Social Union OF
the Congregations church that the
rehearsal held Sunday was only that
of the cast and orchestra and in my
mind this was perfectly proper, The
only thing that was done at the af-
ternoon rehearsal was the assigning
of the various parts and the playing
and singing of few of the songs in
the play. There was absolutely no
dancing at this rehearsal.
"The orchestra met in the even
ing and went through their part of
the program. This constituted the
entire days rehearsals."

spoke of as the absent member Of
his quartette although the pastor did
not mention him by nancy told the
reporter that he was not a regular
member of the church Quartette and
did not feel that he was called upon
to sing unless he cared to.

charge of the quartette, came to me
Saturday night and asked me to take
the place of Henry Smith, who had
planned to be out of town Sunday. !
