most satisfactory results. as their pro-

sNTEEN-oUNcE LOAF IN PERIL

VIANs to the activities Of master bakers throughout
i the country the Federal Food Administration is
thinking Of making fourteen-ounce loaf Of bread the
standard size for all bakeries.
That may meet with the approval Of the people in
States but It certainly will meet with the resent
meut Of the people Of Delaware especially when they
know that If the foureen-ounce edict goes into effect
they WIN pay sixteen-ounce price Tor what they get
We have in Delaware law which provides that
loaf Of bread shall contain sixteen ounces That law
has been enforced rigdly Il should continue in full
force and effect In these days Of abnormal expense
the home many persons experience difficulty in paying
the price charged for The sixteen-ounce loaf. They
certainly do want the loaf cut to fourteen
and the price paid for the sixeen-ounce loaf stll
charged to consumers.
Before anything is done in Delaware 70 reduce the
size Of the loaf, thnK Food Administrator
Mitchell should obtain competent legal advice the
question whether rule issued by the Federal Food

against the pernicious practices Of the conscionless
