A Reason for tho Cost Of Living.

To the Editor or The Times: AS
reader. thought ! would call your
attention to one of the causes OF the
high cost of living, which to me seems
unjustifed. A little over one year
ago wheat was close to the dollar-and-
a-half mark and the Detroit bakers
cut the loaf to 26 ounces. Today Pom
tiac quotations are go cents for red
and SO cents for white wheat. and ws
are still getting 26-osnce bread. Sc
far as meats are concerned, while
pork and the best grades OF cattle ant
lambs are much higher. fat cows
and light steers and heifers, accord
ing to my recollection. and common
grades Of sheep are but little II any
higher than ten years ago.
