Measure 10 Give Davis
Food Price Authority
Pushed Toward Vote
Representative Steogoll
Hopeful Of Getting 1t TO
House Floor Tomorrow

A second attempt to give War Food
Administrator Chester C. Davis pow
ers over food prices at farmer and
professor levels was made today
when Chairman Steagall of the
House Banking Committee appeared
before the Rules Committee and
obtained clearance for the Com
modify Credit Corp. bill.
Representative Steagall said he
was hopeful of getting the measure,
which would extend the life of the
CCC for two years and increase its
borrowing power by s500,000, 900, to
the House floor tomorrow.
In addition to placing long-sought
powers in the hands of Mr.. Davis,
the revamped measure would prevent
CCC funds ''or any other Govern
ment agency funds from being used
for the payment of subsidies to
maintain maximum prices for agri-
cultural commodities.
The bill stipulates that such mod
ificationS shall be made" under the
Emergency Price Control Act and
its amendment of October, 1912, for
any agricultural commodity and for
commodities processed or manufac-
tured in whole or substantial part
from any agricultural commodity, as
the war food administrator deter
mines is necessary to secure an ade-
quate production of such commodity
for war purposes"
Representative Steagall stressed
that the bill would give Mr.. Davis
the right to change any OPA pric-
ing order affecting commodities at
the producer and professor levels.
Representative Jenkins, Republi-
can of Ohio has introduced a bill to
place authority for fixing food prices
under the Agriculture Department,
in effect placing such jurisdiction
under Mr.. Davis.

ern climes start plants that are
freer from disease.
Other cars of the shipment from
Canada are going to the Southern
States Cooperative at Fairfax, Va
the Maryland Tobacco Growers AS
sociation and the Cooperative Seed
& Farm Supply Service at Marl-
boro, Md.
1t was explained at the Agricul-
ture Department that the local
potato seed situation was mot
too pretty a picture" but that lit
tie was being done about it until
the Canadian seed was located be-
cause seed was going to more eff
cient growing areas.
The Canadian seed potatoes were
In excess. it was said. and we're
about to be released as food when
the department heard about it. A
trade was Immediately arranged
with l8 carloads of table potatoes
moving North in exchange for the
lo carloads of seed.
Some Hope for Gardeners.
The department officials In
Maine had not been releasing ship
ments of potatoes to this area, il
was explained, because they were
taking a broad national view of
the situation" and there are areas
further North that will produce so
to 100 bushels more to the acre from
the same volume of seed.
Raymond Ward, manager of F.. w
Bolgiano Seed Co., said he expected
to get a carload of seed potatoes
from Maine next week and would
make them available for victory
gardens. Russell Balderson, who
operates a seed store in Indiana
avenue. said he had no potatoe seed
and had been trying desperately
to buy carload.
A spokesman for the Agriculture
Department said that it was a mis-
take, anyway. to plant potatoes in
the typical victory garden of so or
100 by 80 feet area. Potatoes, he
said. are not an efficient crop for
such small space. The potato
shortage is over, he said, at least
until February and March next year,
with potato paintings up IA per cent,
or enough to produce a record crop.

sad by Maj. Gen. John T. Lewis,
commanding general of the Military
District of Washington. The test
here is in compliance with re-
quest of District Commissioner John
Russell Young.
Gen. Royce to Direct Test.
The entire test will be under direc-
ton of Maj. Gen. Ralph Royce,
commander of the 1st Air Force,
who was designated for the task by
1t. Gen. Hugh A. Drum.
Periods of the blackout may be
longer in some areas of the East
than in others, Gen. Royce an
nounced from New York. 1t is eX-
pected that for any area under test,
the overall test period will not be
less than one and one-half hours.
The public is requested" he said,
"to cooperate with all defense
agencies in order to secure maxi
mum benefit of the test"
WashingtonianS were warned by
Civilian Defense Director H C.
Whitehurst to be careful not to
leave their premises at night with
lights burning.
Prospects that the blackout will
come without warning will put both
civilians and the civilian defense
protection services Ito a supreme
test" Capt. Whitehurst said.
Burning Lights Scored.
One Of the most frequent viola
tions. he explained, has been lights
burning in empty homes. The test
will be the 23d for the District.
In the case of stores or other
places of business where night
lights are used as a precautionary
measure against burglary, if there is
no watchman to extinguish such
lights in even of an air-raid alarm,
an outside switch accessible to war
dens or police should be provided.
I'VE feel we have done all we can
In respect to public education" Capt.
Whitehurst said. I'VE hope WASH
ingtonians will take air raid pre-
cautions seriously enough to famil-
iarize themselves thoroughly with the
requirements. If they do I am not
worried about the results Of the
next test"

charges of conspiracy to undermine
the morale of the armed forces,
arose for the first time today in

tions of the Foreign Agents Regis

witness. told of receiving an order
from Mrs. Elizabeth Dilling of Chi
cago, author of the Red Network"
for 4,600 copies of one of the first
books published by Flanders Hall,
publishing house the Government
contends Vierick used to disseminate
anti-British, pro-German publica-
tions.
Tells of Meeting.
The witness, former president of
Flanders Hall, also told of meet
ing arranged by Viereck with Pres
colt bennett, former public relations
agent here for several isolationist
organizations. The meeting, held in
Viereck's New York apartment, was
for the purpose of better publicizing
Flanders Hall books and pamphlets,
Mr.. Hauck said.
Mrs. Dilling, bennett and Viereck
were indicted early this year on the
Army morale charges
The third day of the trial opened
with Prosecutor George A. McNulty
producing additional propaganda
pamphlets, which Mr.. Hauck iden-
tifled as having first seen in Vierecks
home.

testified, as the original printing
amounted to only 5000 copies.
Testifies Three Hours.
On the witness stand yesterday for
nearly three hours, Mr. Hauck told
the jury of five women and seven
men Of the operation of the publish
ing business, starting in 1910.
| Mr.. Hauck said that at one point
a book dealer informed him he no
| longer cared to handle Flanders Hall
publications because of their anti
British tone. This dealer, the wit
ness added, informed him that the
pamphlets closely resembled publica-
tions the dealer was familiar with
as German writings.
Mr. McNulty then produced sew
eral pamphlets written in German.
The witness admitted seeing them in
Viereck's apartment and said they
were similar in content to several
published by Flanders Hall.
Defense Attorney Leo A. Rover
twice took exception to the reading
of passages from book titled Sow
ing Germs of Hate" written by
Viereck in 1890 and dealing with
German propaganda in the World
War. Mr. Rover termed the reading
Of passages to the jury between
questioning of the witness as "ab-
solutely improper and unfair"
