HOOVER HOLDS PACT HITS U. S. FARMERS *“More Abundant Life—for the Canadians,” He Declares in Trade Treaty Attack. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, November 20.—Former President Hoover attacking the Roosevelt administration for the sec- ond time in four days, charged the new trade pact between the United | States and Canada would impose hardship on American farmers. He delivered this thrust at the treaty: “I presume it is more of the more abundant life—for Canadians.” Mr. Hoover issued the following statement yesterday: “The Canadian treaty is just an-p other instance of this hasty economic | planning without full consideration of | consequences. There has been no | opportunity given for public debate, | no opportunity for adequate hearing of the groups affected. | “But this much even now is obvious: It means still larger imports of foreign food. It thus means further decreases in the home market of American agri- culture. It brings hardship to hun- dreds of thousands of dairy and other farmers. “I presume it is more of the more abundant life—for Canadians.” Mr. Hoover planned to leave for California tonight.

It doesn't take actual experience to care for a baby, Olin Bray of Takoma Park, Md., proved to the complete sat- | isfaction of a capacity audience at the District grocery stores food show last| night. | When the baby washing and drvssJ ing contest for men was over, Bray, | who is ohly 25, had done such a good job there was not an instant’s doubt of his victory, In comparison to his work, several of his competitors, who have children of their own, were rank | duffers. | One father had to tear a dress in half to get it on, and then pinned it up the back, while another contestant, get his baby's face clean. But young Bray left little to be de- sired. His baby was spotless when he finished wasping it. Then he pow- dered it, put on a diaper, a petticoat, a dress, cap and bootees. Bray has been married four years. but has no children. He is employed at the Washington Sanitarium. Prize Baby Selected. The baby contest yesterday after- noon was won by 3-year-old Bunny Stevens, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. R. Stevens of 4111 Gault place north- east.
