Cheaper BREAD
FOR CONSUMER
ObJFST IN VIEW
Standardization of This Nee
essity Of Life Agreed Upon
To Reduce Cost of Pub
lie Baking.
Idaho Administrator Learns
Administrators Attitude
Has Been Making Own
Investigation and Results
to Be Published.

Based on the extensive Investigations
by the representatives of the federal
trade commission, the food administra-
ton, and the department of agricul-
ture, has been determined to stand
ardize bakers bread in the country and
President Wilson has issued his pro-
clamation to that effect, the United
States food administration announces
through p. F. Bcknell, food admins
traitor for Idaho.
Mr.. Bicknell has been making an
Investigation on his own account con-
corning the bread situation in Idaho
and will shortly, he announces, give
the results of his inquiries concerning
costs and what the public has n rea-
sonabIe right to expect from the
bakers.
The Administrations findings are di-
rectly in line with Administrator
Bicknell's previous advices to groccrs
that there should be a differentiation
between cash and carry home prices"
and delivery and credit prices.
MAY FORCE ACTION.
He insists that all grocers should
base their charges for all commodi-
ties on cash and no delivery, because
he finds that considerable is added
to the charge of the goods handled by
Them because of overhead, largely due
to the big expense of deliveries and
the necessity for carrying their Gus
toners accounts.
on the other hand, Mr.. Bicknell says
that customers requiring deliveries and
credit should pay an added percentage
for that privilege, but those who do
not take advantage of it should not be
required to bear the burden of the
others.
Idaho's administrator considers the
matter Of such vital importance that he
proposes forcing action thereon by
grocers all over the state, though the
power given under the food admins
tration act to reach them through
licensed wholesalers. In other words
those retailers who refuse to conform
to the administration regulations
will have their supplies cut off.

The land which has been selected
for the army office building is bound
ed by Halekauila street, Richards
street, Queen stree. and Militant. 1t
contains an area of 12S,634 square feet
and Il persons claim owner ship with
Ia it. 4.
Colonel Schofield said today that
the intention is to put one building in
the center of this block, surrounded
by lawns and parking. Though the
plans TO the structure have not been
drawn up in detail 1t is roughly esti.
mated that the building alone, with.
out furniture and fixtures, will cost
5000, 900.
The style of architecture will de-
pend upon the general type chosen for
the other buildings in the civic center
site and until this has been decided
no plans will be prepared in detail.
: All of the army offices now in the
McCandless building and the Alexan.
der Young hotel building will be
placed in the new structure when fin
ished. 1t may be rectangular In shape
or with two wings and court in the
center, Colonel Schofield says. It
will cover approximately one-third of
the block. ~. !.
Honolulu people will generally rec.
ognize the location of the lot by the
statement that 1t lies directly fnakai
from the main federal building site on
King and Richards streets.
Colonel Schofield stated that the
war department has approved of the
plans for the residential center for Of
ficers in the Fort De Russy reserya-
ton, with 81 sets of quarters includ.
ing one larger residence for the com.
handing general. These will cost ap-
proximately $17S,000. Figured at the
saving effected through army con-
struction it would commonly repre-
sent an outlay of perhaps S225, 900. r
