lor of Troy, representative from the 29th District and Bernard. W. Kearney of the Thirtieth District, will query Secretary of State Cordell Hull tomorrow morning on his foreign policy.
The conference with Mr. Hull was arranged after the representatives had written the Secretary of State demanding detailed information on American foreign policy and its objective*. The letter also complained of Mr. Hull's "puzzling silence" and asked whether they "were being led up a blind alley" following their support of the four-power Moscow declaration and other evidence of the administration's policy.
The representatives expressed belief that the great majority of the American people is badly confused "by the seeming emergence of embryonic spheres of influence on a regional basis—the domination of small nations by the great."
They asked if the Moscow declaration had been abandoned in favor of "piecemeal arrangsments on various topics now deemed to hsve importance in the postwar world." The letter said that reported plans for conferences on postwar civil aviation, oil and monetary arrangements are giving rise here to a belief that "radical changes from the Moscow declaration" are in the making.
The representatives said they believed the people are entitled to some explanation and added:
"If the main American objectives in this war have not been determined we respectfully inquire why? If they have been determined why are we not fully informed about them?"
"We believe that those who are doing the actual fighting are entitled to know what our government Intends that victory will bring."
TWO DAIRY HERD GROUPS REELECT YEARLY OFFICERS

He expressed the be-lief that farmers should regard the future with much enthusiasm and optimism.
He said there are many fields of dairy research open for bringing about more efficient dairy operation. In this connection, he spoke of the desirability of finding methods for cutting and keeping hay without losing so much of the nutrient value as Is sacrificed under present methods.
