State Making Big Inquiry Into Cars State Agricultural officials an nounced to-day that it was probable that attention of Herbert Hoover would be called to conditions found concerning unloaded cars filled with foodstuffs in Pittsburgh yards as well as in Philadelphia. The inquiry be gun at Philadelphia last week was only part of a series, one of which has been under way in the Pittsburgh district for several days. The situ ation at Scranton, Erie, Harrlsburg and other places will also be watched closely. Mr. Hoover will be asked not only to fix a time for the unload ing of cars of food, bnt to have the federal government help the state government in running down men who pay demurrage to avoid unload ing cars and throwing produce on markets. Tlve State Bureau of Mar kets has authority to seize cars if food Is going to waste. A statement Issued says: "The Bureau of Markets will take Immediate steps to correct the con dition as It exists in Philadelphia and will ask Food Administrator Herbert Hoover to set a time limit for hold ing any food stuffs In cars on sid ings. It Is likely that five days will bo asked for a time for potatoes and perishable vegetables and that ten days will be the limit allowed for un loading grain. Another step con templated is the seizing of stock in all cars where there is and indica tion of waste and the enforced stor age or sale of such produco."
