THANKSGIVING DINNER
COST MAY BE REDUCED
Produce Exchange Plans to
Force Release of Storage Tur-
keys and Other Poultry

Measures aimed to reduce the price Of
Thanksgiving turkeys and other poultry
were suggested at the meeting of the Phila-
delpha Produce Exchange at Front and
Chestnut streets, today.
The plan was suggested in n communica-
tion sent by the food administration in
Washington, and read at the meeting. IL
not only suggested the almost immediate
release of poultry now held in storage but
an expression of opinion from counsel Of
the fuel administration intimated that the
Department of Justice would be justified in
taking action against cold storage 1nen who
refused to release such products.
1t was explained that such refusal could
be held as a violation of the special food
act passed last August
copy of the communication has been
sent to all cold-storage owners. 1t read in
part:
1T is suggested that all dealers adjust
their prices so that turkeys and other frozen
poultry can be put on the market at once"
Such action would tend to lower prices, it
was explained. Several dealers also ex-
pressed themselves against the practice of
carrying frozen poultry over from one sea-
son TO the next season of plenty The food
administration evidently also frowns upon
this procedure, as il is inducive to high
prices and scarcity in the market.

NIEANEST THIEF TRIES
TO STEAL 400 LBS. COAL
Woman Catches Negro Driver
Departing Before. All of
Order Is Unloaded

The fact that coal is selling at the high
est price in years makes little difference to
Charles Congter. a negro, of 5S57 Ludlow
street He was characterized as the
meanest thief In Philadelphia this afternoon
by Magistrate Harris. before whom he was
arraigned on the charge OF stealing 400
pounds OF coal from Mrs. Sidney Krumine,
OF 6OS7 hardwood street.
IL was through the alertness OF Mrs
Krumllne that the negro was arrested. She
ordered two tons of coal from the Atlantic
Fuel Company, Fifty-seventh street and
Whttby avenue. The coal was accurately
weighed and was exactly two tons when
taken from the yard by Congter. When he
delivered the coal to the Krumlne home
Mrs Krumline noticed that a considerable
quantity was still in the wagon when Cong
ter was about to drive away She called his
attention to the fact, and the negro, 1t Is
said, told the woman that the wagon had
two and a quarter tons and that he in
tended delivering the other quarter-ton to
another customer.
On telephoning the Atlantic Fuel Com.
pany, Mrs Krumline learned that the entire
quantity on the wagon had been intended
for her. Policeman Stauffer was sum-
moned. He arrested the negro and brought
him before the Magistrate Frank II.
Mathers. president OF the coal company,
appeared against Congter. He denounced
the negro for such trick at this time when
the price of coal is high and expressed the
belief that Congter might have been prac-
tclng the same trick on other customers
Congter was held in S400 bail for
further hearing on Friday.
