of men and women who keenly feel
their excessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually

There was never a time when the

were more appreciated than at the
present time. The influence OF
women is felt everywhere. on the
battlefield. in the hospitals and
amongst the producers at home.

demonstrated the fact THAT women
can in almost every case replace
men successfully. Women all over
the world realize more and more
that their work at home will help
the men at the front. 1t involves

MILK PRICES
UNDER PROBE
BY FOOD HEADS
Dealers viii Be Asked to
Explain Recent In
crease Friday.

Washington milk dealers will be
asked TO explain to the local food ad-
ministrator, Clarence r. Wilson, why
milk prices In this city are higher
than in other cities of-the same size.
At the meeting called by the admin
istration for next Friday evening an
explanation will be demanded for the
recent increase OF / cent q quart by
several of the leading retail dealers.
It Is believed that unless some ac-
tion Is taken by the authorities other
retail dealers will make the same ad-
vance in prices.
May Set sFaIr Price,"
As a result of this action on the
part OF the dealers 1t Is expected that
the food administration will put milk
on the weekly fair price list. Food ad-
ministration heads in numerous other
large cities have placed milk on this
fair price list as precaution against
profiteering.
The question of the increase Will
affect almost every home in the Dis
trict, especially those in which there
are young children and babies. The
high prices already charged for the
milk have resulted in much suffering
orbitant price demanded.
The reason given by these dealers
for the increase has been the proper
tionate increase in overhead ex-
penses. There has been no increase
in the price charged by the farmer
dairymen are being paid from 3Sh
cents to IS cents per gallon for the
milk. The supply is about the same
as IL has been In the last few years,
and farmers do not believe that there
Is any danger Of a shortage.
wholesaler.' Price Same.
The majority Of the wholesalers do
not expect to raise their prices in
the near future. One dealer stated
that, while he was not making as
large a profit as in previous years,
he did not intend to raise his prices
unless forced to do SO by the dairy
men.
1t II expected that the food ad-
ministration viii announce today the
results of the investigation OF the
charges against the numerous retail
dealers taken In the prodteering

Baltimore, Aug. Sit became
known today that bootleggers. find
ing it dangerous to ply their trade

The facts were brought to light
during the trial OF Eugene Veith.

C. Crooks, a special agent OF the
American Protective League, just as
they were passing over liquor to
Sergt r. o. Bussing, OF Fort How
ard on the steamer Susquehanna
yesterday at Betterton.
Veith said he has spent thirty
three years in the navy, and pro-
duced papers to show that he is a
naturalized American citizen. He
also produced an honorable dis
charge from the navy.
Pulzei is employed in the Depart
ment OF Agriculture at Washington.
which position he has held for the
last thirty years.
Both men were committed for
court by United States Marshal
Stockham.
