IMMEDIATE REDUCTION
IN BREAD PRICES URGED
Food Administration Sees No Rea.
son Why the Bakers Should
Not Comply.

Immediate reduction in bread prices
ed to bakers throughout the country by
the war emergency council of the bak-
ing industry. Bakers will go under
government license December 10, using
Ia set formula and producing a STAN
dardized loaf required by the food ad-
ADMINISTRATION.
In announcing recently that the bak-
ing industry was to be put under Ii
cense, the food administration declared
there is no reason why bread prices
should not be sharply reduced.
The information that a reduction has
been recommended came to the food
administration today in a telegram
from Henry Stude of Houston, Tex,
president of the National Association
of Bakers. The telegram was similar
bakers. 1t reads:
THE council calls attention to the
various recommendations in the food
Administrations report, suggesting Il
reduction in prices. with government
control of raw materials used by the
baker. and a reduction in operating
expenses"
There should. wherever possible, be
an immediate reduction in price to the
retailer"
Washington bakers have already
taken steps to lower the cost of bread
to consumers. Pound loaves which
formerly sold for 10 cents are now on
sale throughout the city for and s
cents.

WAR TAX CAM0UF[AGE
IN TOBACCO BUSINESS

war tar camoufage' IL the latest
thing in the tobacco business. The
war tax is camoufiaged-and the
smoker pays the bill.
When the war tax became effective
the price Of cigars. cigarettes and
smoking tobacco was advanced suf-
dciently and in most cases a little
more than sufficiently, to make up for
the tax. Goods that had sold for 10
cents were increased to IL and -; It,
cent goods went up to 18 and II, and
so on. Smokers didn't like this They
resented being taxed more than the
government taxed the manufacturers,
and they objected also to the odd PEN
MES. The 1 cent or cents or 8
cents addition they were called upon
| to pay became a standing grievance to
which erphatio voice was given.
But what's the use of kicking, when
yo,& are an ultimate consumer?
Today some brands of cigarettes
| which used to retail for Is cents are
/ back at that price. But instead of
twenty cigarettes in the package there
lower priced goods also are back, or
| are going back, to the old figure, with
| q corresponding reduction in the num-
| ber OF cigarettes per package. Tins of
i war tax days are to sell for 10 cents
again. with less tobacco in the tins
Cigars are to go back to the old even
money prices, but are to be smaller.
Here's how 1t works. A popular
brand OF cigarettes used to sell for
15 cents a package. twenty cigarettes
to the package. Because of the war
tax the price was increased to 16 cents
The new 15-cent package contains six
teen cigarettes. Figure 1t out: The
i pre-war tax price was y of cent per
cigarette. But for the cent they have
four cigarettes-in other words, buy
ing them back from the consumer al

Behind the more visible provoca-

Frightfulness abroad and on the sea

by Germany within our borders, while
outwordly friendly, having its center
and home in the German embassy and
it's field Of action in every great city,

we might take alarm. Far more Sc

deliberate. They are the expression
