WOMEN CAUSE LIVING COST

New York, March 2S.-A conference
on the cost of clean and wholesome
food was he'd here under the auspices
Of the Association for Improving the
Condition of the Poor, at which AL
fred d. Woodruff, manager of the bu.
reau OF food supply, said that the con-
sumers are really to blame for the
high cost of living. Retail dealers are
forced by patrons to put their prices
up. Women are Indifferent to the
running of domestic establishments.
and give more time and attention to
tango teas and bridge parties. The
demands for immediate delivery, en-
ira clerks and trading stamps all help
the rising prices of necessities. In
speaking of the small quantities or
dered by housewives, Mr.. Woodruff
referred to the west pocket" pur-
Chases, and claimed if the housewife
would only devote the time to becom-
ing Judge of staple articles she would
soon see the wisdom of saving by buy
ing in quantities, which would do
away with the need of Immediate de.
livery of so many articles. Mrs.
Julian Heath, who heads the House
wives League, said today when shown
the above that the women are doing
much more to solve the problem than
is generally supposed.
