BREAD PRICES UNJUST
DECLARE NE. CITIZENS
Claim 6-Cent Loaf Is Not Fair to
Consumer.

That there is no Justification, from
either a moral or financial standpoint
on the part of the master bakers IN rais-
ing the price Of the common family loat
of bread, from to 6 cents. was declared
at the meeting Of the Northeast WASH
inRton Citizens Association. at North
east Temple. last night
w. s. Bronson. of the association. gave
as the basis for this statement the fol-
lowing facts: THE size of the ordinary
loaf has been decreased and the price
raised 1t Is an axiom; among bakers
that better results can be obtained In
bread making from a mixed rather than
a straight -four.
Take, for instance. a barrel of good
flour at SO, a barrel of ordinary -four at
S6 and on mixing them you have a bak-
ing -four costing IS. 1t is also alleged
among bakers that loaf Of fresh bakers
bread consists in weight from one-half
to one-third water. Now applying a 1T
tie simple analysis, we find by using
sixteen ounces as a standard weight, OF
the family loaf, with cents as the price,
the actual cost to the baker. after giving
him all benefit of the doubt. and taking
the exorbitant cost of flour into con-
sideration, would be about IN cents
which would leave him IA cents q loaf
to cover all other expenses and his
profits"
The organization then passed a resolu-
tion requesting Congress to pass a bill
standardizing the family loaf of bread to
weigh sixteen ounces, in the District OF
Columbia, permitting a reduction when
the bakers find they cannot make a fair
profit at this standard weight.

Baltimore, Md. Nov. 13.-With notables
OF church and State in attendance. the
thirty-sixth annual convention of the
American Federation OF Labor was for
mally opened on the roof of the Garden
Theater this morning. Nearly 500 dele
gates from all parts of the country and
from several European countries, Japan
and Mexico. and representing more than
100000 organized workers, were on hand
for the opening session.
The opening was preceded by a parade
OF the delegates In the downtown sec
tion, led by a band of $50 pieces. In the
first rank OF the marchers was Samuel
Gompers. president Of the federation.
Just before the parade reached the
Garden Theater Cardinal Gibbons was
escorted into the convention hall He was
followed a few minutes later by Bishop
John G. Murray. head of the Maryland
diocese Of the Protestant Episcopal
Church. The churchmen shook hands
cordially. They addressed the convention,
as did Gov. Harrington
Toward the close of the opening session
there was a slight jar This was when
President Gompers. closing an unusually
stirring address on labor and labor s
problems. gave voice to his personal
views in the recent Presidential cam
paign.
There were not a few in the audience
who disliked these references of Mr..
Gompers which apparently were made as
representing the voice of the more than
100000 workers in the federation. The
federation president spoke OF "vindics =
tion at the polls last Tuesday" intima =
ing thereby that the views OF the labor
ing men as a whole had been "vindi-
Gated" and 1t was to this, as being un-
warranted and uncalled for. that objec-
tion was privately and quietly. though
none the less insistently, voiced.
