HIGH COST OF LIVING
PROBE IS PROMISED
FOR KENTUCKY
Governor to Name Men and Women to
Probe the Cost Of Living In Ken
bodybuilding and Shoes to
Be Looked Into.

Governor James D. Black will this
week appoint commission of men
and women to investigate the cause of
the high price of the necessities Of life
In Kentucky and to make recommen-
dations as to what action, If any, is
possible, can be taken to bring about
lower prices for food, clothing and
shoes.
Prosecution in the courts, under
the Kentucky antitrust act, one Of the
most drastic laws in force in any State
in the Union, is one Of the possibilities,
in case profiteering on the part OF
business interests is established.
at is my intention to appoint the
coming week a commission Of men and
women we'll known to the people of
Kentucky" said the Governor Sunday,
"to investigate the whole matter ard
make recommendations in regard to
what action is proper and necessary
to bring about a check in the high
prices paid by our people for the ne
cessities of life.
while no complaint has been made
to me officially, I have not been blind
to conditions in Kentucky, nor deaf to
the murmur of the people at the con-
stantly increasing cost of bare exist
ence for many of them.
while wages are higher than ever
before in the history of the State, the
same is true of the most Of every
thing that enters into the problem of
litc for the workingmen. Unless some
thing can be done to bring down the
price Of food within reach of the poor
laborer, there will be genuine and
widespread suffering in Kentucky this
winter"
Governor Black indicated that his
selections for membership on the food
investigation commission would be
persons we'll known to the people of
the State and in whom they have con-
fidence - business and professional
men and women, whose report and
findings will carry weight because Of
their source. With the primary cam
paign out of the way, the Governor
will be able to give thought and time
to the selection of this commission and
So to get the best available talent in
the State for that duty.
