HOOVER TALKS
! TO BRITISH ON
FOOD PRICES
LONDON. Jan. 20 (by Associated
I Press). Herbert <\ Hoover, Ameri
; can food administrator, on bis \i. it
i
to Lngland assured the people of this
country that tin- high cost of fond
was not due to any profiteering by
fanners in the Pnited Sines The
statement he issued to the Hritish
press shows that the guaranteed price
of grain to the American farmer not
only is smaller than the guarantee t<>
tin- Hritish tanner hut the American's
yield is fifty per cent less an acre. It
the Hritish shipping rate, Mr. Hoover
said had increased only pro rata to
tin* American farmer's increase, tin*
cost of wheat in Kngland would he
about $2'I a quarter of I'm pounds, in
stead of the present 7.'».
I keenly realize.” Mr Hoover
said, "how hard the present price
levels hear on all consumers and
more ••specially upon tie- allied peo
ples. whose economic wage plane i
much below that in the i'nifed States
So far as the Pnited States is con
cerned, it is not a matter of profiteer
ing. but is one of deep complexity of
economic forces and provision for
world neces ill*' He cited .1 t able
indicating the comparative levels be
fore and after the establishment ot
war controls by the Pnited State,
government ot prices of wheat, bogs,
maize, oats, sugar, steel, and copper,
adding that ‘price, have been in
variably the same to the allies as to
our own consumers and our own gov
ernment.'
“The high price levels. however.’
created before w e entered the war."
the statement continued, caused our
labor and other food production costs
to increase by leaps and bi-tind , and
to prevent any return during the war

J; \iter discussing !.i< tors other than;
Nnieriean conditions which have in-j
(tea ed the cost «»t food to the allies,!
parti i.larly o\ei>*as transport. he j
noted that, feed prices paid to tin* j
Knglish farmer were about seventy!
per cent higher than the prices real
i/.e,j by the American farmer tor oats
and barley.
"I am in hopes.” he said, "that the
freeing of the seas from war losses
may render it possible quickly to re
duce sea charges to at least the same
ratio of increase as the American
farmer receives.”
1 profiteering and speculation in
pork have been removed ill the state
-Mr. Ilnover told the itritsh people, by
government control of the packing
house i le added
"In a broad view I am certain that
our agricultural margins are -(> low
that a ten percent reduction in prices
j to our farmers would stifle our pro
duction t«> the extinction of our con
sequential export surpluses This
margin of ten per cent is the price
that our consumers and your eon
sumers pa> for stimulation of pro
duction. Our American consumers
rightfully but cbeerluly feel that we
are taking from them this extra ten
j per cent in prices m order that we
\ may take our part in carrying this
world burden. As I view tin* world’s
food assets this moment. I am con
vinced that the extra marginal sur
plus from the I 'lilted States is of
priceless value to the immensity of
human life at stake between now and
next harvest."

time will be granted to those who
will be railed upon to pay income
faxes for the year Ibis, according to
the following message sent out by In
ternal Itevrnur Collector Williams of
this district :
“Income tax forms for lblS can not

the act of litis You will be advised
as soon as definite instructions art*
issued. In the meantime do not use
lb 17 forms for Ibis returns. In case
of any considerable further delay by
congress a general extension will
probably be granted.”
Cntil such lime as the proper
I blanks art* received or the deputy col*
! lector is notified what course to pur
sue. there will probably be an exten
sion of time.
