Allied authorities under Hoover would investigate the German plea that a continuation of the block- ade would cause hardship. The lifting of the blockade would enable the Germans to go into the open market and bid against the Allies and neutrals. Therefore a continuation of the blockade is deemed advisable to force Germany to take her place in the world food line. BREWERS ALSO PUT UP MONEY FOR ALA. PAPER it haahaln tos.
