S. Can Feed Allies in Pitts burgh Speech I'ltUburgli, April 15. Predicting the tlmo Is coming when those "who work with tlielr hands will obtain a. Inrser portion of tlio world's foods than thoso who work with their brain," Herbert Hooter, national food administrator, addressing; 700 persons a tho annual banquet of the Pittsburgh Press Club, declared that us tho result or active participation In tho backwash rtnd Ynlsory of the world war slnco Its first day ha has teen gremlin," out of the masses of pcoplo In every country n-pl-rhtlons for u great economic change. The food administrator scored the war profiteer, regardless of whether laborer, manufacturer, middleman or retailer, nd declared that every cent taken be yond tho pre-war standard U money "abstracted from tho blood and sacrifice of the American people." "I do not lielltvo that any person In these United States has a right to inako oile cent moro profit out of any employ ment than he would havo inado under pre-war conditions. I do not caro whether this refers to tho farmer, tho laborer, the manufacturer, tho middleman or the retailer. I do not believe that extortion ate profits nro necessary to sccuru the maximum effort on tho part of the American people in this war. If wo are going to adopt that theory, wo hac ad mitted c cry thing that has been charged against us of being the most material istic, the most avaricious and the most venal people In this world. "If wo nro going to admit that the Government, In order to secure tho su premo effort of Its citizens In production, must brlbo them with money to this ex tra exertion wo have admitted a weak ness of American character, of American civilization and of American Ideals that puts Us on a 'plane below Herman kultur. "Do not' mistake that I am (-alng that prices and wages should return to the pre-war normal, becauso the Inci dents of war hefore wo joined It had lifted out .co-ts of operation and there must be compensation In everv direc tion. Nevertheless, I hold that any man who has made more than his neces sary living out of tho cost this nation is giving In tho blood of thu liovs we aro sending to France thould not stand Out as a benefactor to his community. "It Is true that this doctrine has been inado law only to the laiger food trades. 1 am confident that profiteering has, from a national point of view, dis appeared In tho lcgulated food trades and my belief Is that It should be ap plied generally to nil business. It is I also my belief that bcfoio wo nro fin ished with this war that will hac been ' done ' "North America Is the greatest factor i In tho Allied food pool and In tho final I analysis It might become necessary for I the Allies to llvo virtually on our sup- ! plies Our ability to supply tho Allied ' world with food lies In four directions," I Sir.
