WILL TRY TO LOWER
PRICES FOR Bread
Hoover Will Make Report On
Cost Of Baking Which May
Help Prices

Washington, Sept 27.-Reduction of
bread prices will be recommended by
the food administration, Herbert Hoov.
er officially announced today.
While he is helpless to force lower
prices directly, HIS recommendations
are expected to be followed, assuring
consumers a cheaper loaf.
Hoover said: "The federal trade
commission inquiry into the cost of
baking and distribution of bread is ex.
pected to be completed in a few days.
As soon as this data can be properly
considered, the food administration in
tends to announce its views as to stand
ards, shape and composition of bread,
and to make recommendations to the
bakers, retailers and consumers as to
cooperation in reduction of price"
hoover is expected to recommend
economies in deliveries and appeal to
consumers TO buy over the counter.
What standard size loaf Hoover will
recommend was not indicated. His ad
visers incline toward European meth
ods by which bread is marketed at
prices much lower than in the United
States. A four pound loaf in England
sells for 20 cents, or five cents a'pound
over the counter. This is made possible
however by the government selling
wheat at cost or below.

Has Chest Expansion
That Breaks Record

ne average man has a capacity of ex.
panding his chest about three inches
Few OF the average can inhale tothe
extent of possible half an inch more.
But there are mighty few who can put
the tape around their chests and then
add six inches to the measurement by
drawing in the ozone. LaNoel b. Dav-
is, age %, student of the 0. A. G.,
enlisted yesterday at the local recruit
ing station, selecting the engineers
corps. He is about the average young
man, weighing 1873 pounds, with a
height of five feet, seven inches. But
when they. put the tape around his
chest, he expanded from 80 inches up
to the SO inch mark, making a record
for Oregon. He says its easy enough
If you know how. He managed to get
the expansion by doing little dip
ping exercise each morning between
two chairs and just drawing in all the
fresh air in the neighborhood.

Won Race Yesterday
First Since SO Years Ago

A feature of yesterdays handicap
race that will prove of special inter.
est to the old timers is the fact that
the owner and driver of Remember
Me- II. S. Hogoboom of Woodland,
Cal, has been a regular visitor to the
state fair since 1868 when he rode
" Cordwoodo = to victory, defeating
= Portland Boy" owned by Knott
Brothers.
Mr.. Hogoboom has had pardonable
ambition to return to Salem and dupli-
cate his feat of nearly 80 years ago,
therefore his winning of the first han
dicap race ever run in the west is an
honor that could not have come to a
more deserving person.

The Red Gross display at the ia

The Red Cross display at the fair
grounds is attracting considerable at.
tention, especially from those in distant
parts of the state. It seems the William
cite chapter has the reputation of not
only conducting its office entirely ae-
cording to business methods, but that
all hospital supplies have been packed
so strictly according to instructions,
that the higher-ups do not feel called
upon to give the boxes an additional in
spection before shipping to France.
