Scribner Mill Put
Out Of Business By
Food Administration

The Monitor Milling company Of
Scribner, licensed and doing bust
ness as the Farmers Cooperative
Mercantile company has been put
out of business so long as the food
administration exercises control
over the output of mills that make
-four and other food stuffs.
At the Office of the Nebraska food
administration it is charged that the
Monitor Milling company has been
disobeying its orders i'll its bust
ness transactions with Uncle Sam. 1t
is alleged that during the period
from July q to November so, this
year, in $50 instances the company
sold mill feed in excess OF the maxi
mum prices fixed by the food adj
ministration. These overcharges arc
said to have approximated $500.
Last August charges we're filed
against the Monitor Milling COM
pany. It was accused of overcharg-
ing. The complaint was sustained
and the mills ordered shut down for
a period of 80 days. Later on other
complaints were filed and a hearing
had. The charges were sustained
and now the finding has been APP
proved by International food admin
istration, with a recommendation
that the mills be closed for all in
definite period.
