Since the Salt Lake City conven~

practically every hamlet throughout

feeling has sort of gotten into the
homes of the people-and it is to
be hoped that their expectations will
be realized.

not taken kindly to the subject. Ever

en- counsel together, and having view
ed the problem from all conceivabl,
angles, these bakers have adopted
and do make the following recon-
mendations to the bakers OF til,
United States. and strongly urge tha
they be put in effect immediately:
NO. 1t is recommended that til,
baking of the hve-cent loaf be dis
continued, because of the economic
waste incident to its manufacture anc
distribution.
NO. 2.-The evidence of accurate
cost accounting has proved that the
ten-cent loaf of bread is the mos
economical loaf to manufacture ani
market, representing as it does, the
maximum value to the consumer. i
must justify itself because of the econ
omy effected in manufacture and de
livery. 1t has proved that there is {
aving of $500 per thousand loaves
IN the manufacture OF the larger Loaf
On the basis OF the annual consump
ton of five billions of small loavef
of commercially baked bread in the
United States, this means saving
TO the consumers of $25,000,000 J.
is also a proved fact that the quality
Of the larger LOAF is materially superb
OF to that OF the smaller loaf bake6
from the same dough 1t is there
fore recommended that the ten-cen
loaf become the established unit
the baking trade. The bakers owe
it to themselves to make the ten
cent loaf the most profitable loaf 70
the consumer to purchase.
NO. 3.-Where local condition
seem to demand the use of an inter
mediate loaf, it should be discretion
airy with the local bakers to maintain
smaller unit, charged for the
same price consistent with the mar
ket value of ingredients.
NO. 4.-No fluctuation in the pres
ent market prices of ingredients nor
any future change should be permit
ted to interfere in any way with thc
quality OF bread manufactured mo-
with the service of the baker to his
public.
NO. 5.-The necessity of going tc
a new standard OF values must not be
permitted to cause any halt in the
general development of the trade
nor in efforts toward educational pub
licity, nor forward movement of any
sort with the general public.-Bakers
