NAVY PURCHASES
 ITS BEEF ABROAD
Hoover Calls Conference to Con-
 slider Domestic Products

Washington, July 19.-UP)-The administrationn acute farm prob lem took on another complication yesterday due to purchase abroad by the army and navy of beef and other food supplies at a time when Amer ican farmers are suffering from low prices due to domestic overproduc ton.
 President Hoover has called special joint board of the army and navy to investigate the situation and consider the possibility of having these two government agencies con- fine their food purchases to Ameri can products.
 AS a prelude to it's deliberations. the charge was made Thursday that army and navy purchasers are buy ing yearly 6,5o0,00O pounds of beef from foreign nations for use in the Philippines, Hawaii China and Panama. Chief foreign purchases are being made in New Zealand. Australia and Argentine, all three countries being competitors of American foreign meat trade.
 Assails Hoover Policy
 Meanwhile, the administrations farm policies were assailed by Sen ator Caraway, democrat. Ark. who said the farmers ''pitiful plight" is caused by the new tariff act. His statement was simultaneous with one from the labor department showing a 4 1-2 per cent decrease in the price of farm products in June.
 The charges relative to purchase of foreign"beef brought from the navy an explanation that it was only abiding by regulations. Under these, it was stated, all beef eaten by navy men in the United States must be bought from American firms. In outlying stations, however, regula- tions provide beef must be purchas- ed from the firm offering the lowest prices. This policy often results in purchase of foreign beef, it was said. Y Due to a falling wheat marlSet. the farm question has become q dominant political issue. The federal farm board, focal point of demo- cratic attacks. is understood to have decided to brave the storm of west ern criticism rather than add to the 60,000, GOO bushels Of wheat already taken from the market.

new YORK DRY
PARTY Revival
is POSSIBILITY
Group Would Draw Major
Strength from Faction
of Republicans.

BIZ United Press
ALBANY, N. Y, July 4.-Revival
Of the Prohibition party, which has
been missing from the political lists
for many years, is seen as pos
sibility in the fall elections because
of the complicated position into
which the two major parties in
New York state have worked them
selves on the eighteenth amend
ment.
If such a revival does come
about, it appears the Prohibition
lists will find the core Of their
strength in the dry faction of the
Republican party. The Democratic
state organization is on record as
fsvoring an amendment to the Vol
stead act to permit the sale of
light wines and beer.
But the prohibition issue has
split the Republicans into factions
of almost equal strength. The wet
camp is headed by former United
State Senator James w. Wads-
worth, who insists that dry can
didate can not hope to win.
William H. Hill of Binghamton,

known as 'the original Hoover
leader" is equally emphatic in de-
claring that an anti-prohibition
candidate will be defeated.
He has mustered the ten counties
along the Pennsylvania border, a
block that is known as "the south
ern tier" and contends that such
powerful backing viii make it i'm
possible for the vets to nominate a
candidate.
Hill goes even farther. He init
mates that the dry Republicans may
nominate an independent candidate
if the Wadsworth faction is victori-
Gus. Political. experts point out
that such move would open the
way for revival of the Prohibition
party.
The prohibition issue is proving
less disturbing to the Democrats
who have Governor Franklin D.
Roosevelt ready to run for re-elec-
ton.
There have been frequent intina-
tions that Roosevelt personally is
a dry. Recently it was reported
that the dry faction was in posses
sion of a letter written by Mrs.
Roosevelt in which she was said to
