Herbert Hoover Says Sending Money is 'Hei£ht of Folly" PROBLEM GETTING SMALLER

Calls 5150.000.000 In Crefl.ts Enoueh— Declare* Need Is Centered In 10 Or 12 Larje Cities In Three Countries. *VashinFton.— Estebiii-bnifni throuRb the rolled Slate* Grain Corp.irat.or. of *1^00.000 Ir credits would f<»d Eutopc until the next lianett without Imposing any burden on American taxpayer*. Herbert Hoover told the Ways and Means Committee- which began consideration of Secretary Glass' request for authority to advanev that much from gn.‘-h corpora tion funds. Early payment of the loan* made cou’d be counted upon. Mr. Hooter said The financial problem of feeding Europe is "getting •.mailer all the iime.” said Hoover, who Informed toe committee that the need of this win ter wa« centered in 10 or 12 cltlc* in Austria and Armenia. Most of Eu rope he said, was in shape to feed itself or get it* breadsdafis through private financial channels. Private charities in the I'nited Stales are sending five or six million dollars' worth of foo i sbroad month- ■ ly. and within a fortnlgh' 3.000.000 American families with relatives in Central and Evsteem Europe will be able to buy “food drafts'' from banks In the Inked Sates. Thtae drafts will be exchangeable abroad for a barrel of flour or other food to supplement that now being rationed by r.uthorlUes and will serve ns a substitute for cash remittances. "Remittsnce of money 1* the height of folly." Hoover declared, explaining that with food distribution under government control one might have plenty of cash, but still be unable to obtain additional food. Hoove: predicted that from five to e'ebt mil'ion dollars a month would be spent in this country for "good drafts." The Children's Fund, an organization that is feeding two and a haif million children o:' Europe, is back sf the “food draft" plan. Hoover said, iddlrtr that it also was aided by bank* | and other private charities, including j the lied Cross, the Committee for Re- j lief In the Near East and the Jewish Joint distribution. Foreign govern- { ments. he said, have agreed to the plan, which also has been approved by the Treasury and the Fedtral Re-

serve Board.

By aiding Poland with food and helping 10 or 12 European cities escape starvation this winter. Hoover said the United State* "would build up security for Its lu billion dollars lent abroad" as well as perform a uumankarian service WOMAN ADMITS FOUR HUSBAND! Bays She Did Not Know It Was
