ULATE PRODUCTION.
Food Board to Consider Man Who Pro.
duces Grain as Well as Rights Of
tho Consumer.

Washington, Aug. 23-The price to
be paid by the food administration for
the portion it buys of the 1917 wheat
crop probably will exceed 81 q bushel,
It is learned here. The committee,
headed by DR.. H. A. Garfield, which
will recommend price, will submit its
report early next week.
In recommending a price the com.
m1ttee, it was said, will take into con.
alteration the fact that the producer
eust receive enough to stimulate pro.
auction next year and at the same
time will consider carefully war con.
ditions and the rights of the consum-
or. In passing the food control bill
Congress set an arbitrary price of 81 on
the 1918 wheat crop.
The hope of the food administra-
ton is that the Government price fixed
will obtain in all private transactions
throughout the year and it is ready to
buy up the entire crop for distribu-
ton If prices cannot be stabilized by
the mere fixing of food administra,
ton price.

Washington, Aug. 23.-At a three.
Jour conference with the Federal
Trade commission President Wilson
took up the whole subject of war pric-
es and went over in detail the COM
missions figures on production costs.
Most Of the time was given to a study
Of the commissions report just CON-
pleted on the cost of producing steel.
The trade commissions steel inves-
tigation revealed that it will be al.
most impossible to fix price for steel
as was done in the case of the coal.
Varying costs in different plants
makes it impracticable, it is said, to
make fiat price and too, costs are
continually changing.
Further measures to control the
coal industry came in for considera-
hon and it was learned later that
the previous order fixing a scale of
prices for coal at the mouth of the
mine for the entire country will be
followed closely by others designed to
give the government complete control
Of the industry from mine to consumer.
