U. S. FOOD FACTS

With reference to the meat supply
and the accomplishments of the peo-
pie Of the United States in meat
saving and production Mr.. Hoover
made this statement on July II in a
letter to President Wilson: "Our
slaughterable animals at the begin
ming Of the last fiscal year were not
apprecialy larger than the year be-
fore and particularly in hogs, they
were probably less. The increase in
shipment is due to conservation and
the extra weight of animals added by
our farmers. The full effect of these
efforts began to bear their best re-
suits in the last half of the fiscal
year when the exports to the Allies
were 2,133, 100000 lbs. as against
1,266, 800, 900 lbs, in the same period of
the year. before. This compares with
an average of Sol ,OO0, 900, lbs. of total
exports for the same half years in the
three-year pre-war period." a
Sugar regulations for August an
,nounced by the national food admins
tration this week provide that the
monthly per capita use of sugar for
regular household purposes be reduced
from 8 to 2 lbs. Householders should
bear this fact in mind and readjust
their uses Of sugar for ordinary
household purposes to the new
amount.
Retailers are requested to note this
change on their sheets for consumers
pledges and to insert the new max
imum upon these pledge sheets used
during the month.

awaiting receipt Of some data and
statistics from the Treasury depart
ment which the committee has asked
for"
Today's committee action, 1t was
said, does not commit the committee
to general gross sales or consump-
ton tax, although that may be resort
ed to at the last moment if the reve-
nue. yield from all other sources is not
sufficient. It has been estimated that
gross sales tax on all articles and on
transactions affecting all articles
would produce upwards Of $4,000. 000, :
600 if only a p per cent rate was
adopted. s.s Fl s
Super Tax May Come.
"a war profits superimposed tax has
not yet been even tentatively passed
upon by the committee, but it may be
considered this week.
The committee cut the Treasury
suggestions in half, SO far as rates are
concerned, on most Of the articles af-
fected by today's tentative agreement
on 10 per cent tax on original sales
Of articles included in the existing
excise tax class.
Under the present law, the tax on
automobiles, trucks, piano players,
graphophones, monographs, talking
machines and records, sporting goods
and cameras, sold by the .manufactur-
ers or producer or importer, is 8 per
cent of sale price; on perfumes, cos
metics, proprietary medicines, toilet
soaps and waters, hair dyes and tooth
pastes, and chewing gum, 2 per cent;
club dues, 10 per cent, and admissions
to amusements, 1 cent per 10 cents
or less paid, and in case of permanent
or leased use Of opera house or amuse-
ment seats and boxes, 10 per cent of
sale price. sl4.

Sugar for canning purposes will be
put upon. per capita basis and
sufficient sugar viii be allowed to
bring each family allotment for cam
ming and preserving up to 10 lbs. for
each member of the household by
August 81. Under this arrangement
family of two will be allowed to buy
during the month enough sugar to
make their total for canning and
preserving this season 20 lbs, a
family of three 80 lbs.la family of
four 40 pounds, a family of five 30
lbs. In the event that before the July
restrictions went into effect they Sc
cured for canning more than 10 lbs.
per capita in a household they will
not be permitter to buy any additional
sugar for canning during August.
New canning certificates will be
supplied to retailers and county food
administrators. This certificate is to
be signed on honor by the head of the
family and turned in to the dealer.
The dealer forwards the certificates to
his county food administrator for
checking.
Retail grocers of Albert Lea have
been paying $4,000 per year to
maintain delivery service for their
patrons, that will be very materially
cut down with resultant benefits to
the customers in reduction of prices,
by the adoption Of the "Cash and
Garry" plan for that city, according
to statement of County Food Adj
ministrator Demmon. Each store paid
from $500 to $500 per year in de-
livery expense an item that the food
administration has pronounced nom
essential and holds is one of the chief
causes OF the high price Of food stuffs.
The change to "Cash and Garry" in
Albert Lea will also relieve for other
more necessary work some six or eight
men.
Nothing but the need of the COM
munity for mill at this season, pre-
vented immediate closing OF. the Bis
cay Milling Company's plant at Bis
cay, Minnesota, by the state food adj
ministration. The mill managers are
accused of numerous violations of
milling regulations and sufficient EVIL
dence is substantiated to warrant
closing the mill indefinitely, the food
administration states. The necessity
Of having mills in operation and
wheat storage facilities available with
the new crop coming in, made this in
advisable at this time. The mill is be-
ing permitted to operate under sus-
picion and the suggestion made by the
food administration that the institu-
ton acquire both new bookkeeper
and a new bookkeeping system.

Luxury Machines May
be Taxed TO- Per Cent by
. Nelu Reue1,ue Legislation

Washington, July 30.-.A so per
cent tax on gross sales of manufact-
urers, producers and importers of
automobiles, piano players, graphic
phones, sporting goods, cosmetics, pat
ent medicines, cameras and similar ar
ticles, was tentatively agreed upon to-
day by the House ways and means
committee, which is drafting the new
$4,000, 200, 900 revenue bill. The pres
ent excise tax on most of these arti-
cles ranges around 3 per cent and the
increased taxation will produce an inn
nlensely greater revenue from these
sources, although no estimate was
made of thu total yield. Motor
trucks will be taxed only half the in
creased rate, on the ground that they
are for business purposes and not in
the same class with passenger auto
mobiles.
The automobile tax was discussed at
length. It was felt by some members
of the committee that large proper
ton of automobiles are used for
business as well as other purposes, but
it was agreed that it would be inn
possible to differentiate. Some of the
committee voted against the taxing of
motor trucks, but the committee final
ly compromised on tax of 5 per cent
en- gross sales on original transactions.
There was NO effort to put a tax on
gasoline, although such tax had
been urged.
Cigar Business Grows.
Data laid before the committee
shows that consumption of cigars in
this country is increasing, while cigar
cite consumption is mounting rapidly.
Chairman Kitchin made this state,
ment tonight, explanatory of the work
of the committee: &
"The committee has had under con-.
sideration today the excise taxes, such
as automobiles, piano players, graphic
phones, sporting goods, cosmetics and
proprietary medicines, cameras, etc.,
and has tentatively decided to levy
tax Of 10 per cent on the gross sales
of the manufacturer, producer or inn
porter, in lieu Of the present rates. A
distinction in made between motor
trucks and other classes of automo-
biles. In the case of motor trucks a
tax of only per cent was agreed to
be levied.
Theatre Tax May Be Doubled.
cit also had under consideration a
tax on admissions to theatres, operas,
moving picture shows etc. The COM
mittee favored doubling the tax on adj
missions and club dues and also, to
impose 1-cent tax on all admissions
where the maximum charge does not
exceed Z cents. Under existing law,
all moving picture shows, theatres and
other amusements whose maximum
charge does not exceed 5 cents are
exempt from the tax.
"The committee proposed tomorrow
to take up the luxury tax suggestions
Of the Treasury department. The to-
bacco tax schedule was postponed
