MEAL SHOULD COST LESS

COLUMBIA, Mo-, May 22.-The
Food Administration has sent out
through all State Administrators a
warning to corn, barley and oats mil
lers and to wholesale and retail deal
es in the products that at the pres
ent prices Of these grains cornmeal
and oatmeal should be selling for at
least 20 per cent below the price Of
wheat flour and that corn flour and
barley flour should be selling at
least ten per cent below wheat flour.
The high levels ruling in grains as
a result Of car shortages and storm
weather last winter have now fallen
materially with greater freedom of
transportation and the stocks accum-
ulated by manufacturers and traders
at the prices ruling then should have
been generally liquidated by this time.
The maintenance of higher price lev
els by millers and wholesalers will re
quire justification to the State and
local Administrators and although re-
talers are not under control whole
callers will be instructed to cease
dealing with retailers who cannot JUS
tify their prices on the basis of the
cost Of their goods.
