Outlining plans for food conservation
contained in the Presidents proclama-

with full instructions how to fill out.
The proclamation itself is guide

"A single company requires only one
license and application blank, no mat
ter how many branches it has. pro-
rided they are conducted under the
same name. If business is carried on
in different names. or by subsidiary cor
porations they must each have a Ii
cense.
Rules and regulations have been
prepared and will he ready to be sent
out with the licenses before November
/. These rules are based on three funda-
mental principles:
Il. To limit all profits TO normal
amount which the licensee obtained in
ordinary years Even IL a shortage be-
comes apparent. the commodity must
sun pass 10 the consumer at same rea-
sonahle price though there were
su'hclcnt supply. In nonperisha BILE pro-
ducts every licensee will be required

OF particular goods sold without re-
gard TO market price when sold.
"2. To keep all food commodities
moving in as direct a line, and with
as little delay as practicable. from
producer to consumer, and discourage
speculation and resales within a trade
In case of all products. except cotton
seed. fresh fruits and vegetables, cold
storage products, canned goods and
dried fruits no licensee will be allow ed
10 hold or contract for more than sixty
days supply at one time. This is sup
plemented by more stringent special
rules in some indusi rivs, and any un-
reasonable boarding will be cause for
revoking the license.
80. To limit as far as practicable con-
tracts for future delivery and dealings
IN future contracts. except in commo-
dities mentioned above contracts for
delivery more than forty-five DAYS in
advance are forbidden. and some spe-
cial regulations prescribe shorter
zine. All Licensees will be required TO
give foe administration at Washing
Ton monthly sworn reports Of their
business. and their books must always
be open to inspection. Every dealer
should conduct his business with those
three principles ~ mind.
I'll. regulations do not attempt to
chanEe IN any way the customary chan
mel OF business. or eliminate any dealer
who has an established channel of dis
tribution."
