ENGLAND LOOKS TO U.S. TO BACK UP F00D PLANS Far-Sighted Policy of America Will Aid in Carrying Food to Suffering Nations. By A undated Press) LONDON, Tuesday, Nov. 12. John Robert Clynes. British food controller, mid today that the food situation in Europe continues to be serious, necessitating shipments until spring. He said that he confidently expected America to back up any British sacrifices, which might be necessary in behalf cf the needy peoples of Europe, recently freed from German domination. Mr. Clynes remarked that the situation had been prevented from becoming critical only by the fact that a certain amount of wheat flour reserves had accumulated in England. He continues: "Not the least of the services rendered to the allies by this country has been the building up of these reserves here. But in order to restore conditions to the normal margin of safety there m ist be greatly Increased shipments of cereals until spring. "The food emergencies of peace are likely to be formidable. A certain amount of th'S stocks now held as military reserves probably will be rea?ed and I hope, with the diminution of TO'inUion phlpments and the abolition of the convoy system, the tonrn"e position will be improved. Refrigerator Ship Shortage. "This, however, will not entirely finite one of the most serious problems, the shortage of beef and mutton.

What vAUj'i rj'.ay be iacumbent upon the alii?. uiiUilna to be seen. One thing Is f- it-iin. that ullic-d food control must b.j continued Rt any rate for many i:io;'tli9 after peace and probably must lo rjrte.-.'drd to tali on international ii'-ope. America Must Aid. "To effectively carry out this plan, tto ll!ea In Europe, during tho vital j-t.rlod of recuperation must rely upon continuation cf the far-sighted policy cf the United Btates government in Vruriutos' crodits for food supplies. "Apart from the allied situation as r. wholtf, tho commodities urgently .n.oedeA la the British Isles are meat. butter, cheeso and cattlo feeds. Unices there la an improvement Ik the supplies of these commodities, the pv-syont meager rations y are likely to ; b cut down and cattle supplies of the country may be reduced to such a i minimum as to involve a long con- ' turned atrain on the meat supply availhUo from other parts of the world. There is a strong feeling In this country that the bare necessities of life fhall continue indefinitely under coverumcnt control. This gathers Htrenjrth from ever-rising prices. I hope it may bo possible to devise some lIn of international action by which prices can be brought to an equitable bnsifl and all profiteering In food necessary to maintain, human existence i.ipv be eliminated. "Plentiful Kiirpl'o.' of the kinds of food beyond the reach of tho poorer lasses conic? only stimulate unrest and countries drained by the four years of war, are unlikely to be able to raise the existing standard of wages, or provide for unlimited sub-' Kidies. which, at the moment appear to be the only means of counteracting tho price evil. "The American government and Herbert C. Hoover, the American food administrator, know the exact facts regarding the allies' food requirements. They will soon know the real position of central Europe.

they are capable of making any sacrifices, however groat. In the allied cause. I feel sure that whatever further calls President Wilson and Mr. Hoover may think it necessary to make in order to meet the food emergencies of victory, they will be answered. In the same spirit which1 the nation has displayed since it entered the war."
