HE MUST MEET PRICES
Local Retailers Supply Will
Be Cut Off Should He
Disregard Governments
Price Limit.

That the US. government will
be able to regulate the retail
merchant in the sale of commod-
tiles anywhere and at any time,
was settled last week when the
government made the announce
ment at Washington that sup
plies would be cut off from any
retailer who refused to comply
with the regulations laid down.
For example, should the gro
GERS of any place, or any one or
more of them refuse to abide by
the prices fixed by the govern
ment and complaint be made
to the department, an investi-
cation will be made and if it
appears that the complaint was
well founded the wholesale deal
ers supplying such merchant or
merchants will be notified not to
allow any more produce to go
to such person or persons during
the continuance of the war.
1t can be seen from announce
ments that retail merchant will
have to use great caution if he is
to keep from getting in bad with
the department as anyone can
lodge complaint and he must
be able to show that he is right
or the complaint will stand prov
ed against him.
The food control department
seems to be determined to get
food prices down where they be-
long and if there are any who re-
fuse to abide by their decisions
the department will make short
shrift of them.
