War Worker Expected No Pay;

What salary?" the man replied.
BY patience and questioning the
foreman arrived at the facts.
The man didn't know he was being
paid anything for his work-thought
he was working for his country and
his wife was supporting them while
he did it.
He had wondered at being told to
stand in line and receive a little
slip of paper from time to time, but
had done so and. fortunately, had
kept all his checks-payment for
nine months Of work at wages from
IS cents to more than a dollar an
hour.
The foreman took him to a bank
where the checks were cashed, q

War bonds, and the balance de-
posted.

Hoover Canyasses
Food Outlook With
House Republicans
Ex-President Outlines
Priee-Fixing Problems
Of World War Doys
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Former President Herbert Hoover
last night outlined before commit
tee of 40 House Republicans studying
wartime food problems the procedure
used in fixing prices during the
World War when he was food ad-
ministrator.
Mr.. Hoover said after the confer
ence, held behind closed doors, that
the entire time was taken up with
describing the processes in the last
war" and added he had made no
specific recommendations.
Mr.. Hoover said he believed the
system used during the last war was
better in some respects and simpler
than that now in effect. But he
added that the situation now was
different and some of the present
methods were more applicable.
Food prices rose less in the first
IS months of the World War than
during the first Is months after
the Pearl Harbor attack. he con-
tinued. Under the World War plan,
he added, price fixing started as
close to the farmer as possible and
moved up through trade channels
instead of beginning with the re-
taller.
The committees session, he said,
was not one of criticism but was
called as the first of a series to
obtain all possible facts on food
problems
"All these men are as earnest as
any one in the United States in
wanting to win the war and solve
the problems" he said.
Representative Ellsworth, Repub-
lican, of Oregon, secretary of the
committee appointed by Minority
Leader Martin, said Mr.. Hoover
suggested no conclusions be made
until we got the facts" The for
mer President also proposed, Mr..
Ellsworth said, that the committee
look ahead in an effort to ascertain
what the situation would be next
March
This is fact-finding group" Mr..
Ellsworth told newsmen. I'VE are

have anything to do with the prob
lem"
He said Secretary of Agriculture
Wickard. Food Administrator Ches-
ter Davis and any one they sug-
gested would be invited to confer
with the committee.
