HOOVER REPLIES
 ID ClTICISMS
 IN us. SENATE

Paris, Jan. 23.-Herbert c. Hoover, the food administrator, made state- ment today in reply to criticisms of ing a recent debate.
 q apparently emerge in a new light as the friend fthe Chicago packers" said MT. Hoover. At the same time the mail brings a report from Swift and Company blaming the food administration for reducing their profits by $10,00O,O0O during the last year. I do not imagine that the packers would appreciate wide circle of such friends.
 q notice also that I committed a crime by holding the October joint conference of farmers and represen- tatives of forty small packers, as we'll as the big packers, together with representatives of Allied governments for the purpose of settling on aprice for expects of pork that would give the American farmer square deal and distribution of orders that would protect the small packers.
 "We have even tried to secure the continuance of these war arrange ments through the armistice period and the opening of other markets, because the American farmer did his duty and produced the goods.
 "If the American farmer and the small packer now feel that these ar engagements are wrong it would be the greatest burden off of our should CTS if we could know it quickly. The British government is particularly to be relieved from these arrangements. J

Interesting Trip for
Officer Musgrove

Probation Officer Musgrove had an
interesting journey to Pruntytown
yesterday whe nhe took Ralph Hol-
ley the black boy, and an Italian boy
to the Reform school. Holley was
very sullen and had it in his mind to
run away before the train was reach
ed. Prosecuting Attorney Haggerty
said the boy should have gone to
prison, but that by misreprestt,ting
his age, he drew the Reform school
instead. Holley's eyes were very
alert during all of the journey. He
walked slow enough to miss the train,
but the train was caught neverthe-
less. Just before starting with his
charges, someone whispered to Mus
grove that the black boy was going to
escape if possible. and Musgrove
spoke up loud: well, If he does try
to get away, he won't get far, because
Tcye got a big gun in my pocket"
That settled the matter and all
went we'll until Pruntytown was
reached. The journey from the train
to the school was taken by buggy,
and for additional safe keeping Hol-
ley sat beside Mrsgrove with the Ital-
ian boy on Holley's lap. When H. l..
Flesher, say the black boy, he re-
marked: well, where did you come
from?" This time Holey forgot
where he came from last and said he
was raised in Martinsville. II.
