Potatoes are IL cents for IL

our wholesale price is more

be matched in New York.
Even butter, in spite of the
dearth of fats in Germany,
costs 80 cents for IL pounds,
well under the New York price.
Bread, in wartime doubly the
staff of life, costs the Berlin
hausfrau 8 cents for IL
pounds, practically the same
as the New York 12-ounce loaf
at 6 cents.
The conditions in Berlin re-
fleet credit on the efficiency

its efforts to protect the popu-

such prices it is evident the al

THE OUNCE OF PREVEN.
TON

"HO does not remember
~ the epidemic of influ-
enza and pneumonia of
last winter? Many of US are
burnt children; we have had
the one or the other and will
escape this winter if there is
anything in prevention. Mere
lockers on at the general mis-
cry from la grippe probably
carry no strong impression Of
the condition prevalent in the
Seaboard and middle western
states, but any one who was
housed with the disease Shud-
ders to think of withstanding
another attack.
Here is no medical screed
on how to prevent or cure any
ailment; just a word of eau
ton to so meet the winter that
the threshold of resistance
may be high. Overheated
stores, offices, homes and cars,
yitiated air in all sorts of city
gathering places s, sudden
changes of temperature while
warm from exertion, the often
ridiculed wet feet, are some OF
the things that make people
sick. And the sick are easy
for all sorts of diseases.
If one were to choose the
"0unce of prevention" worth
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-11-18

the most pounds of cure he
would surely say fresh air,
Fresh air for mother and the
girls, fresh air for father and
the boys. Sleep in it, walk in
it, work in it, talk in it-you
see how easy it is to get poeti-
cal about such a splendid
thing as fresh air?-PittSburg

TO SEEK COURTS AID
IN BUILDING CONFLICT
Fire Department Rules and New
Code Cause Tangle.

An action is soon to be begun in the
local courts to ascertain whether or
not the new building code takes prece-
dence over the regulations of the Fire
Department. Many owners who have
complied strictly with the building code
have subsequently been compelled by
the Fire Department TO make extensive
alterations to thci" structures. The
Advisory Council Of Real Estate Inter
est is seeking to remove this conflict
OF rules.
I'm the interest Of eliminating the
duplicate examination Of plans for eN-
it's in buildings hereafter erected the
Fire Department respectfully suggests
the following arrangement: That the
plans for buildings to which Article S
of the building code applies be exam
med for exits by the Bureau of Build
ings. That the prior approval of the
Bureau Of Fire Prevention be required
i'm every case where provisions Of the
building code relating TO exits are
waived That certain requirements OF
the Fire Department be enforced by the
Building Department. That in all other
cases the plans be passed for exits
without submission to the Bureau Of
Fire Prevention.
