In addition to steps against the
black market, Mr.. Wilson said cattle
feeders should be given more assur-
ance that they will be able to oper-
ate profitably.
They have been scared to death
during the last year by changes in
OPA regulations, he said, adding
The present situation probably
will get much worse unless correct
ed, and I think that applies to the
whole industry
Only Half Enough Relief.
He said the increased beef subsidy
effective April and the higher pork
ceiling prices for Government sales
announced yesterday, would help
some" but that the relief was only
about half enough.
War Food Administrator Marvin
Jones, in vein similar to President
Roosevelt's remark at a recent news
conference that more belt-tightening
will be required, said last night that
civilians can make still more sacri-
fees. He told a radio audience over
the Mutual Broadcasting System that
military lease-lend and foreign relief
calls on Americas food larder will
grow. He added that foreign COM
mitments should not be made which
I'VE cannot possibly fulfill"
Mr.. Roosevelt's statement was fol-
lowed by demands on Congress to
know more about the international
food situation Thus far, however
the Senate Agriculture Committee
first to grapple with the matter, has
devoted the initial phases of it's in
quiry chiefly to an airing of differ
ences between meat packers and the
Office of Price Administration.
British Ministers Arrive.
A new development in the foreign
food field came last night with an
nouncement of the arrival in Wash
ington of two British cabinet minis
tiers at the invitation of President
Roosevelt to discuss the whole COM
pick problem of world food produc-
ton, distribution and equitable al
location" with highest American
authorities. The visitors are Pro-
duction Minister Oliver Lyttelton
and Food Minister J. J. Llewellin.
A joint statement today by the
British Embassy and the State De-
partment said the British represent
atives and American officials would
make "a combined reappraisal of
the whole supply and requirements
picture"
Meanwhile, the House, not con-
tent to leave investigation of the
food situation to Senators, voted a
study of its own-by vote of 292 to
7. Designated chairman of a spe-

resentative Anderson, Democrat, of

President may kill legislation dur

Congress Suffering
Inferiority Complex,
La Toilette Complains

Congress Is suffering from an in
feriority complex, Senator La Fol-
lette, Progressive, of Wisconsin COM
planned today.
The Senator, who is chairman of
the Joint Committee to Reorganize
Congress, made the observation dur
ing hearing at which Representa-
tive Smith, Democrat, of Virginia
recommended that congressional
bodies have at their disposal more
efficient stats for drafting bills and
investigating the operation of legis-
lation.
1T seems to me-" Senator La Fol-
lette said, that Congress has an in
feriority complex. 1t hesitates to
equip itself with stats 20 discharge
its responsibilities. On the other
hand, it is exceedingly generous in
providing all other branches of the
Government with the necessary
stats. 1 don't think the people
would object to our getting the help

One Of Four Witnesses.
Il don't think they would either, "
Mr.. Smith agreed, land If they did,
I think we know better than they do
what We need"
Mr.. Smith was one of four wit
nesses who appeared today to pro-
pose reforms in the legislative sys-
tenn. He warned against the growing
practices of executive agencies to
promulgate legislation by sanction,
by subsidies, by regulation and by
Interpretation.
II don't think the American peo-
pie realize to what extent their sys-
tenn of Government is being changed
by these four innovations in the
legislative process" he said. These
things may be done in good faith,
under the spur of emergency, but
once we break down the constitu-
tional boundaries. these practices
spread like disease"
He recommended creation of a
joint legislative staff, joint COM
mittee on appropriations and a
permanent committee to investigate
complaints that executive agencies
are exceeding their legislative au-
thority, similar to the special COM
mittee Of the House which Mr.

LONDON, Mar 28.-A German
radio propaganda declared today
that iron discipline in the army
and courts-martial certainly are not
enough to make the people continue
the battle of their own accord with
bare courage"
Faith and conviction also are
needed" said the commentator,
George Schroeder.
The German people can scarcely
be blamed for asking how is the war
possibly to be won," said Schroeder,
adding that for the present Nazi
propandists had only one theme,
that "a lost peace is worse than
war"
He and his associates were re-
ported facing the most difficult task
of trying to answer the peoples most
insistent question: When will the
German counteroffenSive in the east
promised by Guderian and Goebbels
three weeks ago begin?"

The House chairman added his
plan is to avoid all possible duplica-

was to increase by Is cents to $3.50

chases of various pork items. Civil
ian purchases are not affected. The
higher prices, it was said, are de-
signed to assure the services their
share of meat"
James F. Brownlee, deputy price
chief, told the Senators that OPA
does not intend to force the smaller
packers into bankruptcy and would
provide relief" if case for it were
made out.
AS for supply, Mr.. Brownlee said
there is no evidence whatsoever
that price ceilings have in any way
restricted the total supply of beef
and pork"
