as excessive, are to be cut Twenty
five per cent of the cost of bakers

and salesmen's commissions on bread
sold thru grocers are estimated at -
per cent alone
The contemplated reduction in mil
iers profits comes as surprise
They are at present limited to 25
cents per barrel profit on flour. While
this may not be changed radically. the
large profits they are making on sales
of by-products, like shorts, middlfngs
and bran, will be cut materially. The
high prices millers are obtaining for
these by-products are seriously inter-

cording to food administration Off

At the same time it is charged that
m1llers were satisfied with 10 cents a
barrel profit on flour before the war.
The food administration explains that
1t was led to agree to higher profits
because of threatened flour shortage
at the time millers voluntarily sub
m1tted to regulation
