Food Saving
Not Relaxed,
Says Hoover
State Administrators Told
America Must Give to
Needy Nations
Pork and Butter Are
To Be Conserved
Federal Board to Continue |
Its Work Until Peace Is I
Formally Signed
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12-The na?
tion's obligation and opportunity to
serve stricken humanity in war torn
Europe by helping to provide sus?
tenance until the next harvest will
demand further sacrifices of the Amer?
ican people, Food Administrator Hoo?
ver declared to-day in an address at
a conference here of state food admin?
istrators.
Conditions of famine exist in Eu?
rope, Mr. Hoover said, that will be
"beyond our powers to remedy" even
with tile carrying out of the plan
to ship from America 20.000,000 tons !
of foodstuffs during the next year. In |
Northern Russia alone, he declared,
there are 40,000,000 peoplo who have
but little chance of obtaining food
this winter. Millions of others
throughout Europe, he suid, who can
bo reached must be fed.
Situation Is Summarized
"This being the new world situa?
tion, created by the collapse of the
war," Mir. Hoover continued, "the
prime changes in our policies on to?
day's outlook can be summarized:
"That we may now advantageously
ubandon the use of substitutes in our
wheat bread; that we will still re?
quire economy and elimination of
waste in its consumption; that for the
present we need conservation in but?
ter and condensed milk; that ulti?
mately we must extend this to all
fats.
"We can contemplate, at the most, ?
maintaining fully three pounds a I
month of sugar a person of house- I
hold sugar on the" present out?
look, and we ?an by the availibility j
of Java sugars to Europe begin at ?
once to relax more restraints on
sugar pending some change in Eu?
rope policies.
"These are special features of
changes in policy, but the shifting of
conservation from one commodity to
another is not the whole policy. There
is one policy which cannot change,
and that is the vital necessity to sim- ,
pie living, to economy in all consun p- |
tion for commodities ' more or less
substitute for each other. Wc must j
realize that the spectre of famine
abroad now haunts the abundance of j
our table at home.
Most Help Europe
"We have now to consider a new |
world situation in food. We have to ?
frankly survey Europe. A Europe of (
which a large part is either in ruina
or in social conflagration; a Europe I
with degenerated soils and depleted |
herds; a Europe with the whole of its j
population on rations or varying dc- <
frees of starvation and large num- ?
ers whi. have been under the Ger- j
man heel actually starving.
"The group of gamblers in human i
life who have done this thing are now i
in cowardly flight, leaving anarchy and ?
famine to millions of helpless people. ?
"The war has been brought to an
end in n? small measure by starva?
tion itself, and it cannot be our busi- |
ness to maintain starvation after ;
peace.
"We must consider carefully how
this situation reacts upon our people. !
We must consider our national duty ;
in the matter and we must make
such changes in our policies as are j
fitting to the new situation. The mat- ?
ter or prime importance lo uej ?3 how ;
much of each commodity the export?
ing countries can furnish between now
and next harvest and how much is
necessary to the importing countries 1
in which we have a vital interest, in '
order to maintain health and public'
order in the world."
Shortage in Pork
A computation on this basis. Mr. ;
Hoover said, presents this situation
until the next harvest.
A shortage of about three bililon !
pounds of pork and dairy products ;
and vegetable oil?, and of dairy feeds I
of about three million tons. Of beef !
there are sufficient supplies to load
all refrigerating ships' capacity, and
there will be enough of other food- :
stuffs provided the utmost economy
is practised by the American public.
Althcugii sugar that will be available '
is ampie for normal consumption here
if other nations retain their present ;
short rations, any increase in Europe
will create a world shortage. There
is a surplus of coffee.
North America Mr. Hoover said, will '
have to furnish 60 per cent of the j
world's supply of foodstuffs, nnd the |
United States and the West Indies i
will be able to export 20,000,000 tons !
ay against a pre-war normal of 0,000,
000 tOllr. i
Mr. Hoover told the state admin- i
istrators that the food administration :
will be discontinued under the law '
when peace is proclaimed, and added: :
"I do not expect to see its renewal."

U. S. Navy to Take i
Important Part in
After-War Policing
For That Reason Daniels;
Will Push Building Pro?
gramme as Outlined
Warships Still Alert !
Will Not Relax Vigilance Until
Enemy Disarms; 1920 Es?
timates Sent to Congrefs
WASHINGTON', Nov. 12. ? An im- ?
portant part in the proposed after-the- !
war international policing of the seas
is expected to fall to the American
navy. For that reason there is no
prospect of any reduction in the prgs
en't naval strength, and the Adminis?
tration plans to press for the passage
of the three-year building programme
recently laid before Congress by Sec?
retary Daniels. I
The cessation of hostilities in Lu- '
rope, it is believed, will permit con
centra.ti.or. ot" energy on speeding up
the capital ships programme, held back
heretofore by the necessity of produc?
ing anti-submarine flotillas.
i'ntil German submarines and other
war craft designated 1n the armistice
terms have been surrendered and the
remainder of the enemy's naval forces
disarmed, Secretary Daniels said to?
day, the American navy will in no way
rciax its vigilance. Instructions to
this effect following those given by
General Pershin? "-o tho army jn
France, are assumed to be already in
the hands of ths commanders of all .
ships.
Expect No Immediate Drastic Act
The Navy Department, Mr. Daniels
said, had not been officially notified of
the situation early to-day as to the
German fleet, said to be under control
of revolutionary committees of the
Soldiers' and Workmen's Council.
Detailed instructions for the turn?
ing over of the surrendered ships, and
other steps for naval disarmament,
were not contained in the armistice it?
self, but were communicated in at?
tached notes, which have been com?
municated to Washington. The Su?
preme War Council left this and de?
tails of the execution of the military
aspect of the surrender to Marshal
Foch.
Officials here are not inclined to ex?
pect immediate drastic action to force
surrender of the German ships. The
authorities at Berlin who ordered that
the armistice be signed are respon?
sible for the carrying out of i?s terms.
Should they fail, the armistice, can be
brought to an end abruptly, and hostili- ,
ties resumed.
WKuld He Critical to Disobey
With the German army presumably
under orders from Berlin, the situa?
tion of the fleet in German harbors
would be critical if they defied the
Berlin authorities. Shore batteries
could soon compel them to put to sea,
and the Allied naval power, concen?
trated for the task, nudoubtedly would
make short work of them.
Officers here can yet see no serious
threat of a renewal of hostilities be?
cause they believe the crews of the
German ships realize the utter hope?
lessness of their situation.
Secretary Daniels announced that the
programme for construction of one
hundred chaser destroyers at the Ford
plant in Detroit would be carried out.
Fagle No. of, the third vessel of this
type, was launched there to-day.
1.920 Estimates Sent In
Complete estimates of tt?e Navy De?
partment's requirements for the 19?0
fiscal yeai1 were sent to Congress to?
day by Secretary Daniels.
Secretary Daniels has announced that
they include a second three-year build?
ing programme, calling for construction
of ten additional superdreadnoughts,
six battle-cruisers and 140 smaller ves?
sels at a cost of $600,000,000, a third
of which sum would be needed in cash
appropriations for the. 1920 fiscal year.
The 1919 naval appropriation bill
carried $1.('07,<1G8,000.
Fall River Steamers
Resume N. Y. Service
NEWPORT, R. I.. Nov. 12.?Port re- :
strictions were lifted here to-day for
the first time since the United States
entered the war. The Fall River Line
steamers resumed the nightly sail?
ings for New York, which were sus?
pended when the Navy Department,
issued regulations closing the port
after dark. All shipping, it was an?
nounced to-night, may pass through
the submarine net* at any time until
further notice.
The signing of the armistice with
Germany has brought no lifting of re?
strictions here, according to Byron R.

London Is Delirious With
Joy at Ending of the War
Impromptu Parades, Paper "Snowfall," Cheers, Kisses?
Everything New York Did Seen at Celebration?Author?
ities Expect Fete to Continue for Nearly a Week
(Special Cable to The Tribune)
LONDON', Nov. 12.?When news was
received that the armistice was signed
the wildest excitement broke out in
London. Punctually at 11 o'clock gun?
fire started, announcing the signature
to the populace. Instantly there was
a rush into the streets and a hatless,
coatless crowd began a celebration that
latsed all day and night, while the
weather favored the general rejoicing
by being ae mild as in summer.
Within half an hour all the streets
underwent a mysterious transforma?
tion. No trace was left of the usual
workada appearance. Work was
stopped by general consent. All build?
ings broke, into flags and'thousands of
workers in government offices tore up
the useless dossiers into small frag?
ments and threw trie m fluttering into
the streets. Before the Air Ministry
tliera was a paper blizzard.
A huge crowd ?urged to Buckingham
Palace wildly cheering the King: and
Queen and Princess Mary and the Duke
of Connaught as they appeared on the
balcony. Lloyd George was looking
happy as he poked his head out of "the
window at 10 Downing Street with
Bonar Law, and made a short speech,
while the multitude, packed tight in the
narrow space, cheered and sang.
As the street? filled every passing
' vehicle was boarded by people. Omni?
buses, taxicabs, lorries, traction en?
gines and delivery vans soon were
packed tight from wheel to roof. There
wore flags and .shouting everywhere.
: bands playing, people kissing, belib
ringing and dancing in the streets.
London never has seen such wild ex
? citemeiit and is not likely to see it
again.
Dispatches from Germany indicate
, that the revolution is so far pursuing
j a moderate course, but so intense it*
j the celebration of peace in London that
' there is complete indifference regard
' ing the happenings in Germany. The
i fate of the Kaiser or the spread of
! Bolshevism awakens slight interest,
, and it probabl will be many days be
? fore London awakens to e sense of th^
reality of the serious problems yet to
be faced before the world is free ^if
troubles. ?
A huge crowd surged down to White?
hall and the people outside the Ad?
miralty demanded a speech when Sir
Eric Geddes appeared. As the day ad?
vanced more and more people came
ero\r\ the outlying districts so that the
streets of the centro and the West End
became impassable. Among the vehi?
cles commandeered by the crowd was u
large brewery dray containing cases
of bottled beer and soda, and all the
beer was quickly disnosed of and what
?oda was not drunk was squirted on
the crowd.

tinder the new ruling passenger au?

mobile industry was required to manu?
facture passenger cars on a basis of
50 per cent of its annual output and
was warned to get on a 100 per cent
war basis by January I, 1919. This
would have meant devoting entire
plants to war or essential work. To?
day's action nullifies such a require?
ment.
Together with the partial lifting of
the han on curtailments the board ab?
rogated all pledges made by wholesale
;;nd retail dealers in raw material, semi?
finished and finished products other
than building materials, affecting such
commodities, Including pledges regard?
ing reselling.
Manufacturers, however, will con?
tinue to give pledges as heretofore, ex?
cept those requiring the exacting of
pledges from those buying from them
for resale.
The priorities division of the War
Industries Board, it was announced,
will assist industries as far as pos?
sible in getting labor, transportation,
fuel and materials to enable them to
get on a normal basis as rapidly as con?
ditions warrant. Precedence will bo
given to stimulate production of cargo
ships, army and navy reauirements and
the nation's proportion of "the enorm?
ous volume of materials, equipment
and supplies, as shall be required for
the reconstruction and rehabilitation
of the devastated territories of Europe."
Precedence also will be given food
and coal production, that of oil, natu?
ral gas, textiles, clothing and min?
erals, public utility requirements and
to permit and stimulate intensive de
.ve'opment of inland waterways.
I All limitations of building materials.

Dry goods Men Want
Stagger Plan Ended
Representatives of labor and manu?
facturing organizations, at a confer?
ence with Chairman Hubbell of the
Public Service Commission, discussed
yesterday the advisability of continu?
ing tho so-called "stagger" system of
opening and closing business places in?
stituted by Health Commissioner Cope
land during the influenza epidemic.
S. F. Rothschild, of Abraham &
Straus, said Dr. Copeland's plan did
not work well for the drygoods mer?
chants, but the jewelry and clothing
workers favor continuing the schedule.
Officials of the "Big Six" typograph?
ical union and the stereotyper?' organ?
ization were opposed, saying tho plan
works no benefits, as the trains are
just as crowded as ever and they feared
the traction linos might cut down tho
service.
Chairman Hubbell said no such thing
would be permitted.

Wilson to Get Plan
For Demobilization
Within a Few Days
Troops on Return Will Be
i Discharged Fast as Trades
Can Absorb Them
Employers' Aid Sought
Questionnaires Sent Out?
Crowder May Head Board
to Handle Problem
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.?Demobili?
zation of men in the military and
navift service of the United States,
after their return from France, will
be carried out largely on a basis of
the ability of trades and occupations to
absorb them, under a ? plan being
worked out by the Labor, War and
Navy departments and the War In- i
dustries Board.
It was said to-day the pian will be ;
submitted to President Wilson in a
few days.
The War*Industries Board has sent
questionnaires to employers in all in- ;
dustries, asking the needs of each for
men, and the answers will show where,
when, and how rapidly jobs will be
ready for discharged" soldiers and
sailors, and what trades are most in :
need of them. Supplementing this in?
formation will be that received from
draft boards and community labor j
boards, which aro to cooperate in the ?
work. !
The War Labor Policies Board and(
the United States Employment Servico
will be combined to handle the Labor
Department's end. The War Depart?
ment is expected to ?-stablish a new
bureau or to convert the activities of
Provost Marshal General Crowder's of
tice t# this end. General Crowder was ;
suggested by some officials as the man
best qualified to deal with the task of!
preserving the balance of power of the
labor supply without delaying demob?
ilisation operations. \j
With the conversion of industry i
from a war to a peace basis many j
workers also will be released from emer?
gency jobs created by the war, but !
this problem bas been taken into con- j
sideration by tho officials, who are j
working out plans for a general sta- !
bilizing of labor conditions when the |
soldiers are returned to civil life.
War Labor Head Says I
Careful Plans Will
Give All Peace Jobs
(Special Dispatch to The 'Tribuns)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.?Chairman |
Felix Frankfurter of the War Labor
Policies Board authorized the following
statement to-day on the plans of the
government to readjust industry:
"There is no occasion whatever for
any unemployment or misery in this
country. There are enough jobs if wc j
carefully make the adjustment that has >
to be made from an energetic war pro- !
duction basis over to the eventual
pe.ace basis.
"Secretary Baker has given orders ?
that there should be no curtailment of j
war work in the War Department, j
which is, of course, the biggest war
producing agency, except after eon- ;
saltation with representatives of the
War Industries Board and the Depart?
ment of Labor.
"Chairman Hurley Indicated that the
ship industry would go on in this coun- j
try and would need as many men as
they have now. The whole process is j
to guide the thing with the necessary i
intelligence and foresight. A? to the ;
wage scales, there should oe no quick j
changes because that would be an un- j
healthy process. 1 think we want to |
make a gradual healthy adjustment. I I
think if the interests of labor are ade- I
quately represented in working out I
these things, labor with the rest of the
interests of the country will accept j
what changes that are necessary in |
going over to a peace basis.
"We must fasten our minds on this.
The needs of this country and the
needs of the world call for great pro- i
ductivity by the United States of all!
kinds of goods. If we keep our heads, I
and if we work these things out in aj
cooperative way, there ought to be very I
little dislocation in turning this nation !
over to peace purposes.

Devoid of Bitterness
LONDON, Nov. 12.?The English
newspapers to-day are filled with
thanksgiving as the great victory
achieved by the Entente Allies and
pay glowing tributes to the forces
which have brought peace and justice
to the world.
In the editorials there is no algn of
vindictiveness toward the German peo?
ple, although tho question is frequent?
ly discussed as to the "merciless peace."
that Germany would have imposed if
she had succeeded in forcing her will
upon the moral forces of the world.
The newspapers assert that the prin?
ciples of the armistice terms are of a
far different character from the terms
Germany hoped to dictate.
The writers generally express the
desire that Germany will soon obtain
a stable and settled government for the
reorganization of her new and freo life.
"The Times" says: "The 'cease fire'
of yesterday must be final and uni?
versal."'

Will your trustee
surely be able to serve?
A MAN who recently went into our
? ^country's service had for some years
been trustee of the large estate of a friend.
The will had appointed two men, so that
if one could not act, the other would be
available.
One has lived abroad for years and conse?
quently could not serve. The other is now
obliged by military duties to relinquish the
estate's management. On petition of the
heirs, the court has appointed this Com?
pany as trustee. This is one of many
recent instances of individual trustees re?
signing for one reason or another.
To insure your estate's being always in
competent and dependable hands, would
it not be wise to appoint this Trust Com?
pany in the first place?
Ask for pamphlets " The First Step in Making
Your Will" and "The Street of By and By."
