FOOD LAW BREAKERS
RECEIVE PENALTIES

The law enforcement division Of the
food administration headquarters at
Burlington Is busy investigating re-
ports Of violations of the mules, regu-
lations and laws relative to food.
That many OF the cases reported
turn out to be without foundation does
not modify the determination of the
administration to investigate every
complaint and when yiolators are
found to impose severe penalties.
The Burlington headquarters is in
receipt Of information to the effect that
the same policy is being adopted all
over the country. The A. F. Takamine
Co. of Denver has been put out Of bus
mess altogether for the remainder Of
the war for violating the flfty!flfty rule
J. e. Cullen, cigar maker, strange to
relate of Everett, Wash, has been in.
dicted by the federal grand jury and
put under arrest for boarding flour.
He was found to have put 100 barrels
in his cigar store to wait bulge In
the market The license of the Hyatt
Grain Co. of Valdez, Tex, has been re-
voked and the concern cannot longer
deal in grain because 1t has been spec.
ulating.
These instances from outside Of
Iowa indicate that the federal food ad-
ministration will follow the Iowa plan
all along the line and will see that the
men who violate the food laws, trying
to profiteer or hoard or who sell wheat
flour without substitutes, will be Wig
orously prosecuted, it was stated at
the Deems headquarters today.
