HOT SPRINGS, Va, May "a
The Russian delegation to the
United Nations Food Conference
declared today the Soviet Union
needed more food than it was
now receiving from the United
States in order to carry on the
war against Germany.
A. D. Krutikov, deputy commissar
for foreign trade and chairman Of
the delegation, told press confer
ence that Russia did not want to
inject the present food problem into
the conference program.
He said, however. that the dele
cation wished to call the confer

the war.
Among the nations united and
associated in the war against the
Hltlerite Germany the Soviet occu-
pies special place. bearing on its
shoulders the main burden of the

for almost two years Mr. Krutikov
said.
In this connection, the problems
of supplying food and food relief.
are, at the present time, of great
Importance to the Soviet Union
first, because the Soviet Union now
needs food to supply the large army
which it maintains in order to de-
feat Hitlerite Germany and to win
the war. and, secondly, because food
is required to maintain the life and
health of the diluted and impover-
Shed population of the regions
which are being liberated by the
Red Army from German invaders"
NJ Krutikov said food resources
OF Russia are inadequate because
a large part of Soviet territory is
under German occupation. The
question of meeting Russia's S present
war food needs, M. Krutikov said,
is one to be handled by Russia and
the United States under the lease

D. {. Unemployment
Benefit Changes
Sent 10 White House
Revomped Bill Let's
Women in Essential Jobs
Work Sd Hours q Week

The House completed legisla-
tive action this afternoon on
bills revamping the Districts un-
employment compensation law
and permitting women in essen
tial industries here to work 81
hours a week and sent them to
the White House for the sigma
ture of President Roosevelt.
House action was taken at the re-
quest of Chairman Randolph of the
District Committee, who asked con-
currence in minor changes made in
the legislation last week by the
Senate. Both measures had previ-
ously been passed by the House.
The Unemployment Compensation
Bill will give Washington the ex-
perience rating system of taxation
now in effect in 80 States and save
employers an estimated S5,OO0,OOO
year in payroll taxes. In place OF
the present 27 per cent fiat tax on
employers which has built up
large reserve in the fund from
which unemployment benefits are
paid, the rate could be scaled down
to ore-tenth of per cent, accord
ing to each employers record in
stabilizing employment.
Under the fiat rate the reserve has
mounted to $50, 100000, which House
and Senate committees found is far
in excess of prospective needs.
The bill also increases benefit pay
ments to the unemployed from s18
week for 18 weeks to $40 week
for 20 weeks and safeguards the
status of employees who leave to join
the armed forces.
Existing law forbids women in in
dustry i'll the District from working
more than eight hours a day or
more than six days week The
House bill authorized the lifting of
both restrictions. The legislation as
finally approved requires one day
off i'll seven, but allows women to
work up to 50 hours in a week. It is
not blanket exemption but gives
the Minimum Wage and Industrial
Safety Board authority to grant ex-
emptions in essential industries.

charging its Rules Committee
from further consideration OF

islation is "a bid for Negro support"
and the assertion that IF the New
Deal persists in heaping indignities
