TEN-CENT BREAD BEST
SAYS CHARITY REPORT

After a thorough investigation of
conditions, it was found by officials
of the Social Service Bureau today
that it would be better for the people
of the community If the Richmond
bakers would put out large ten cent
loaves Of bread instead OF small five
cent loaves.
1t was found that under the high
prices of flour it would be impossible
for bakers to put out the same sized
loaves of the same quality that have
been placed on the market hereto
fore.
1t will be necessary for bakers in
order to make their loves appear
large to put raising ingredients into
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1916-08-11

the dough. This will put stop to
the wholesome quality of the bread
In putting out ten cent loaves
enough labor could be saved to enable
the bakers to put out little more
bread in ten cent loaf than would
be contained in two five cents loaves.
1t was found in the Social Service
Bureau investigation that bread was
the principal food of the poorer
classes Of the city All of the poorer
families are large and consequently
at least two five cent loaves or one
ten cent loaf would be used daily.
Thus the change would work no hard
ships
