STARTS MACHINERY
TO REDUCE PRICES
Committee to BE Named in Each
County TO Arrange Fair
Price List.

Washington, sAug. 10.-Attorney
General Palmer started out today to
ascertain how much of the high cost
OF living is due to excessive profits by
retailers.

ministrators who worked with Ad-
ministrator Hoover during the war,
the attorney general requested the ap-
pointment of fair price committee
In each county to investigate what is
being charged for retail necessities
and If In excess of what the commit
tee considers just to publish a list or
fair prices for the guidance of the
public.
This is the extra legal" means OF
reaching profiteering which Mr.. Pal
mer recently indicated was under con
sideration. He has frankly admitted
from the start that there was no
means to prosecute directly man
guilty of extortion in prices. Retail
ers who are gouging the ultimate con-
sumner will have to be disciplined by
public sentiment which officials have
no doubt is sufficiently alert to the
situation now to act vigorously in
clear-cut cases. Hoarders, on the 9TH

state food administrators to transmit
to him any evidence of boarding or
other violations of the law which they
might encounter in their work. with
the promise that the governments
