FRUIT SCARCITY
AND HIGH PRICES
BLOCK CANNING

CHICAGO, Aug. 1s-The canning sea
son is on, but Mrs. Consumer can't
can as in former years.
In normal times the market would
be flooded with every variety of can
able fruit, Chicago retail grocers said
today, but this year is an exception.
Scarcity and an abnormal demand get
the brunt OF blame.
Apples which sold this time last
year for so cents to $1.50 a bushel sre
selling at 81 to 50 today. Last year
peaches were $1.T5 and 81; today they
are $3.50 a busheL Pears are IS, com
pared with 81 last year.
Much fruit faces the danger OF rot
ting on the trees in Western orchards,
IL was also asserted, owing to short
age OF farm labor. Packing cases arc
high also.
Cherries are from 20 cents to 81 per
crate this year.

new BOND PROPOSAL
MEETS GENERAL FAVOR
Sentiment at Capitol Approves
Taxable Issue.

Secretary McAdoo's new bond pro-
posal for a per cent taxable issue
was one of the chief topics Of dis
cussion among members OF both the
Senate and the House today.
In general. sentiment favors the
plan, though there are many members
who want a permanent policy OF bond
issue and retirement outlined.
Under the Secretary's proposal,
Congress is asked to authorize an Is
sue OF S7,53S, 945,OOO. This sum would
care for four billion dollars in loans
to the allies, would take the place
of the proposed second Liberty bond
issue OF $4,000. 900 900 at 81 per cent,
and would bring up the balance in
the general fund of the Treasury.
The tax. proposed on the bonds
would not hit the small investor. II
is the plan to have the new issue
subject only to Federal income super
taxes, war taxes, and excess profits
taxes. The small investor is paying
none OF these.
