Must Come Down.
THE time has now come when
the readjustment OF the prices OF
these grains should have taken
place. We are requiring the
principal corn millers to report to
this office by telegraph weekly
the prices at which they purchase
corn, and the prices at which they
are quoting products, and we are
directing them to make duplicate
reports to you.
But without waiting for these
reports you can take the above
approximate levels as being in
dicatiye and instruct your county
and city agents to make a drive
on the reduction OF prices to
proper. levels. as the maintenance
by millers and dealers of the price
levels which were due to short
age in railway transportation last
winter has now become in many
cases simple extortion. Where
dealers have paid more than pres
ent prices they run risks of spoil
age in endeaoring to hold material
for price at old levels, and tne
first loss of reducing prices is the
smallest loss"
Hebberd's View.
In explaining the situation Mr..
Hebberd made the following state
ment:
THE ratios between substitute
prices and wheat flour prices, re-
ferred to in the wire from Mr..
Hoover. are apparently based on
prices prevailing in the middle
west.
THE ratio Of the substitute
price to the wheat flour price in
this state is not SO low, first. for
the reason that we have the low
est price on wheat flour here of
any place in the country, and sec
ond, because to the middle west
price of substitutes must be add
ed the cost of transportation to
this state"

HOover's Wire.
The telegram from Mr.. Hoover
says. AT the present price of
corn, barley and oats millers
are or should be offering meals
and flours from these grains at
prices considerably below wheat
flour.
''In fact, cornmeal should be
selling from the mill door at not
less than 25 per cent below wheat
flour, and oatmeal at an even
less ratio. White corn flour or
barley flour should lie selling at
not less than 10 to Is per cent
below wheat flour. There is,
therefore, absolutely no justifica-
tion for present price levels in
these substitutes.
Retailers should not take more
than 16 to 20 per cent Of the
sale price for handling these prod
ucts. The wholesale maximum
margins have been fixed as per
our bulletin OF April 6 at not
over 10 per cent in bulk. There
