Treaty Hearing Resumed Amid Food Speculation Debate
The article reports on a Senate hearing related to Hungary and a broad critique of food speculation. It cites Wartime relief head Herbert Hoover as saying speculation, not actual shortages, drives high food costs. Northern Europe ports overflow with food as merchants in Poland, Czechoslovakia, the Baltic states, and Germany face reduced purchasing power and currency issues. Hoover argues that speculation surged due to expected postwar demand once blockades eased and peace treaty was signed at Versailles. He notes the blockades’ removal was slow, aiding speculative activity and rising prices.

He argued the time has come for Congress to protect the public against losses from widespread stoppages should the railroads be tied up by a general strike. He noted existing laws under the Clayton Act already permit certain strikes and lockouts.
