NEW YORK, Jan. 22 (U. P)— The fate of the post-war world may

depend upon an adequate solution| ‘to the production problem now fac-|'

ing ‘the American farmer, Herbert Hoover declared last night. In an analysis of “foot supplies for this war,” delivered before the * 248th meeting of the national industrial conference board, the former president warned that the

problem of furnishing food to the|

* united nations now “and to a stary- _ Ing world after the war” was secondary only to military operations In determining the final outcome ~ of hie war. . “After the war,” he said, “it will . take first place in saving the world from anarchy.” Hits at ‘Blockade’ Mr. Hoover bitterly assailed the %armchair consumers” who attack the farm response to the nation’s production dilemma and called upon the federal administrative agencies to lift the “blockade on * possible production.” Mr. Hoover blamed the shortage of labor and farm machinery and . methods of price control for “limiting. vital essential expansion of pro- ~ duction.” To relieve the “blockade” on the nation’s production potential, he ~~ advocated a five-fold plan to com- . bat the farm labor shortage. It embodied (1) organized pre- * paratory training ‘of women for the - lighter tasks, (2) cessation of the movement of farm labor into arms ‘and munitions production, (3) in- _ dustrial economy on labor and the subsequent release of such economies to the farmer, (4) “large and temporary” importation of Mexican farm labor, and (5) granting of furloughs to farm youths in the army for the few months of peak © planting and harvest.

‘What Have We to Gain?’ Asks One Local, Still . Holding Out.

. WILKES-BARRE, Pa, Jan. 22 (U. P).—All but 800 of the 12,000 anthracite miners whom President Roosevelt had ordered to end their strike were back at work today. Only the Exeter miners of the Payne Coal Co. carried the strike— for elimination of a 50 cents a month dues increase and a $2 a day wage raise—into a 23d day. ; The No. 7 colliery local of the Susquehanna Collieries Co., representing 1600 miners at Nanticoke, voted in a brief meeting today to end their holdout against the president's order. The Exeter miners voted. yesterday to remain idle, but a meeting has been called for later today to reconsider that action. ’ The Exeter local sent a telegram to the White House, asking, “what have lwe to gain by going back to work?” SL Group Meets Monday Members of the Exeter local complained additionally that Mr. Roosevelt's back to work order to them had not been signed by him. Mr. Roosevelt's deadline for endling the strike was noon yesterday, put thus far he had taken no punitive action toward those who defied him, probably because the majority obeyed. The White House an-

nounced that he was gratified and:

expected the others to be back shortly.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22 (U. P.). —The - White House waited today for more news from the Pennsylvania anthracite fields before determining whether any further steps are necessary to end a strike: which has greatly diminished in effect
