Housewives Appeal for Relief.
Situation Before Local :
Food Administrator.

That meat prices in Washington have
been steadily increasing until they have
now reached a point where they are
declared practically prohibitive has
| been called to the attention of the fed
eral food administrator for the Dis
trict of Columbia. From every section
of the city housewives have complained
of climbing prices and have appealed
for relief.
They have been assured that. al
though meats are not included in the
administrators weekly fair price quo
tations. action is to be taken by the
national government. which. it is ex-
pected, will bring about desired relief.
Waits on Investigation.
At the suggestion of Herbert Hoover.
national food administrator, President
Wilson has appointed special commit
tee to make a thorough investigation
of the meat situation. The President

a marked difference in the price paid to
farmer or cattle raiser for beef and

Must Have Sugar Licenses.
license in the form of a certificate
from Food Administrator Wilson will
be necessary after tomorrow for pur-
chase of sugar by any manufacturer or
dealer. Those found guilty of the pur-
chase of sugar without a certificate
may have their licenses revoked.
The local administrator announced to-
day that he proposes handling this
question in rigid and firm manner. He
explained that this step is not taken
because Of any shortage in sugar at
this time. but as a means of assuring
those who indulge in canning and pre-
serving during the coming summer suf-
fcient sugar for their purpose.
1t is pointed out that those engaged
in the production of. essentials will be
allowed enough sugar necessary for
the production as in the past. while
those producing what is deemed nom
essentials will be allowed only so per
cent of their customary need.
