SOAP All IIINTMIIIT British reject Hoover plan Remain Determined Not t0 Allow Food t0 Enemy Occupied Areas. WASHINGTON. March 9-(A.P) —The British Government, declar- ing that it would be “false human- itarlanisln" to admit foodstuffs in- to any German-occupied territory tonight announced rejection o Herbert Hoovere's new proposal to establish soup kitchens in Belgium oi an experiment in European re- e . The British Embassy in a state- ment here said the Government had "considered afresh the whole problem of relief, including the proposal for the institution of soup kitchens in Belgium" and still is determined not to weaken or undermine the blockade “by ad- mission of supplies from overseas into any territory under enemy control." In reply, the former resident said “the stark fact is tat mil- lions of children, and the weak, are threatened with stunted bod- ies and death in the occupied lands unless relief is brought to them. . . .it ls no false humanity which eaves the lives of countless children." The British llmtibass supplied Mr. Hoover, honorary c airman of the Committee on Food for the Small Democracies, with acopy of its statement in advance of its general release. In his reply, which was released simultaneously. Hoover said his committee believed the British of- ficials had prepared their state- ment "before they were fully iri- formed upon the undertakings we have now secured." The food situation in the occup- ied countrles. Hoover said, "is far- worse than the British statement would seem to indicate," adding that the Belgian ration is down to "less than half necessary to main- tain life."
