BARRIERS feel that the public will bear
with them as the increase was made
absolutely necessary by reason of the
high cost of BARRIERS supplies and of
living necessities. They say that they
clung to the old scale of prices as long
as it was possible to do so and live

STATE LOOKS

State Food Administrator Deems An.
nOunccs That Food Administra.
ton Will Prevent PrOfiteer-
ing in Ice.

New Price, However, Lower Than
Average and Probably Will

State Food Administrator Deems of
Burlington announces that the manu-
facture and distribution of ice comes
under the food control act and that
the food administration is concerned
that there be no profteering in ice
in Iowa.
>. Applies to All Dealers.
Dealers in both artificial and ma
tural ice will be notified that no in
crease in the price of ice to house.
holders should be put into effect il
contemplated until investigation is
made and proof submitted to local
authorities to show the necessity of
the proposed increases.
Administrator Deems does not be-
lieve it will be necessary to resort to
licensing dealers in Iowa in order to
reach effective regulation ana TO pre-
vent unreasonable increase in prices.
Price up Five Cents.
r. G. Clark, seen by the Freeman
Journal, said that dealers here have
received no notification from the food
administrator relative to the ice sit
uation. The price of ice to Webster
City householders this season has
been fixed at forty cents hundred,
which is five cents higher than last
year. Mr.. Clark, however, is of the
opinion that Administrator Deems is
concerned over towns where ice men
are really charging eXorbitant
prices. He says the prices charged
in Webster City are lower at forty
cents than they are in Fort Dodge,
Boone and other larger nearby towns.
He is of the opinion that the action
of the state food administration has
no reference to towns where a slight
raise still keeps the price below the
general average and, hence, he eX-
poets no interference from Mr.. Deems
on the new schedule agreed upon by
Webster City ice man.

the Red Cross.
One village furnished an instance
of real sacrifice. A sawmill was
much needed, and for several years
they had been saving towards its
purchase. Their savings amounted to
$3.50. Instead of keeping it all for
the original purpose, 500 was given
to the Red Cross, other small
amounts added and, together with
the donations of the school children,
the total brought up to $15S.
This money was obtained by selling
furs, cutting ivory and longshoring
for the ships that visit their isolated
homes.
