A FRAUD AT WORK
Collecting Penalties In Name of
Food Administration

To the Editor of The Republican.
Several reports have reached this of
fee that parties claiming to be repre-
sentatives of the United States Food
Administration have accused house
holders, boarding house keepers, mil
lers, and others of violating the Food
Administration regulations and have
collected some penalties.
No representative of the Food Ad-
minlstration, other than the County Ad-
illustrators and the Federal Admins
traitor or his deputies in the Baltimore
office has any power to impose or
recommend any penalty, and no money
penalties are imposed either by County
Administrators or by the Baltimore of
fee excepting in the form of voluntary
contribution to some one of the war
funds.
Any other person asking for money
in the name of the Food Administration,
is fraud and should be Immediately
placed under arrest and turned oyer to
the proper authorities. This office will
make every effort to see that such an
individual is put behind the bars, where
he belongs.
All friends of the Food Administration
are urged to give this statement the
widest possible publicity.
