he SUGGESTS RATION SYSTEM
Immediate Government Action Should
be Taken to Control Through Com
merciai Not Legal Methods.

Washington.-Herb Hoover, for
mer food administrators, gave his
views to congress on the sugar and
Industrial situations.
Appearing before a house commit
tee investigating the sugar situation,
Mr. Hoover declared that the world
shortage of the product was likely to
continue two or three years. The
pressing need was rationing, he said,
with immediate government action to
control the supply through CONNER
cial, not legalistic methods.
In making reply to members who
wanted to know what has been done
to keep the present high sugar cost
off the people, Mr.. Hoover reiterated
that the government should have
bought the Cuban crop as well as the
Louisiana crop and that even now
there was a chance to help by limit
ing the supply to non-essential indus
tries.
