ALLOWED POTATOES TO
SPOIL is PENALIZED
Dealer Learns that Food Administra-
tion Means Business and Suffers
Loss Of License

The statement is often made that
4'food spectators" in the cities dis
troy vast quantities Of food in order
to raise the market. The story is
absurd on its face, but great quanti-
ties Of perishable food products have
spoiled because commission men have
refused cars consigned to them. This
practice must stop, and the food ad-
ministration has issued a statement
relative to the punishment meted out
to Washington dealer who was
guilty of this offense. The state
ment says
''The United States Food Admin
istration has given definite answer
to those wholesale handlers Of food
stuffs who have been in the habit Of
unjustifiably refusing shipments con-
signed to thenq thereby being re-
sponsible for a great waste of food.
The form of the answer has been the
revocation of the license of Morris
Singer & Co., in Washington, for the
reason that they rejected two car
loads of potatoes consigned to them
and permitted them to deteriorate.
"The firm thus penalized will not
be permitted to handle for sale any
foodstuffs subject to license after De-
cember 8, and they have been warned
that any violation of this prohibition
will make them liable to fine not
exceeding $4,000 or two years i'm
prisonment, or both, as provided in
the recent license ruling.
''The present instance isNthe first
where the Food Administration has
found it necessary to use its powers
to revoke licenses, and the case may
be considered as warning to- other
dealers. The unjustifiable refusal oi
shipments on the part of consignees
has been for many years an un.
healthy feature of the perishable
branches of the food business.
cit has been a common practice fol
dealer to order consignment from
shipper or farmer and If, when the
shipment arrived, the market for the
product had declined, the consignet
would take advantage of the situa
tion to reject it, thus placing tht
shipper at a tremendous disadvant
age. The shippers choice was either
to go to the endless bother of law
suit, with the difficulty of obtaining
proper witnesses and taking hi
chances on local jury, or to maxi
a compromise with the consignee, al
ways to the latter's advantage.

REGISTERED MEN MUST

Changes

Registered men are warned by the
local exemption board, at the re-
quest Of Provost Marshal General
Crowder to keep the local board in
formed as to their address at all
times. The reason for this warning
is that the questionaires which all
registered men must make out are
to be mailed some time this month
and 1t is essential that all registered
men should get them.
All registered men must keep the
boards notified Of any change in ad-
dress. It is, not the duty OF the
board to hunt them out and failure
on the part OF the men to do SO sim

further result Of this procedure has
been congestions in the railroad
yards and delay in car movements.
"Those interested look to the Food
Administration to put an end to this
practice under the licensing system
and by the powers conferred upon it
by the food-contral act which pro-
yides against waste Of foodstuffs.
