fray the expense of bringing ice
from distant points and thus keep
the price the same. 1t is estimated
that if this is done during July and
August, the 1st of September will
see a sinking fund of $4,000,
which can be used to bring in the
September supply of natural ice. If
this money is not all used it will be
divided proportionately and returned
to those who contributed it. The idea
was. received with unanimous ap-
prevail, but it remains TO be seen
whether or not it will be lived up to
by the ice dealers.

nal summer weather greater New
York consumes between 10000 and
$4,000 tons of ice a day, so that
these plants are supplying about so
per cent of the amount consumed.
The other so per cent must come
from the great river storehouses, and
it doesn't take an expert arithmeti-
clan to figure out that at the rate of
10000 to 10000 tons day the &c.
600 tons will last just about two
months; that is, during July and
August, provided that we have nor
NAL summer weather. A long period
of extremely hot weather would de-
plete it much quicker.
Here, then, is the answer to our
first question, as there really any
danger of an ice famine?" There is
no danger during July and August,
provided the weather remains nor
NAL and we are careful not to waste
the ice supplied to US or order more
than we need. If we see to it that
the ice is put into the refrigerator
at once and not left on the dumb
waiter or on the sidewalk to melt,
we are doing our bit to help avert a
famine.

The Price of Ice
Is One Cent for Two Pounds

So much for the very poor. For
those who can afford to pay for their
ice supply there should be one price
and so far as the ice companies are
concerned there is but one price,
which has not changed for more than
a year - 80 cents a hundredweight,
or two pounds Of ice for enc cent.
Owing to the meltage, however, the
customers at the end of the ice route
were won't to receive a much smaller

The Cellar Iceman-
His Faults and Virtues

Which leads US to the question OF
the cellar iceman, Of whom there are
hundreds doing business in the dark.
unhealthy, subterranean caverns
throughout the city. Their number
is decreasing, however, because Of
the high cost of living. l talked
with an old Russian on the lower
East Side the other day who told
me that a year ago there were four
cellar icemen doing business in his
block and now he is the sole sur
vivor. "And it's because I amt got
no family, or I couldn't afford to do
it," he said. Nobody that amt a
single man can't be an iceman no
more; he can't afford to do it. Why,
l only make $l.75 a day on the best
Gay in the year. A mans gotter be
single to live on that.
One doesn't wonder at the pres
cnce Of these cellar merchants in the
poorer districts where ice is pur-
chased in smaller quantities and at
irregular periods, but it is astonish'
ing to see the ice brought into well
furnished uptown apartment and de-
livered from filthy wooden bucket
to the japanese chef by a dirty
Italian. have inquired into the
reason for this and find that it is q
question of policy and accommoda'
ton. If the family takes its ice
from a regular company it must be
contented with one delivery day
and if unexpected guests should ar
rive and extra ice is required it is
of course, impossible to obtain it o.
their regular iceman, and they arr
obliged to go to the cellar man. L
they are not regular customers Of

them ice, but if, on the other hand

houses is not practical, so that the
icemaking plants have only storage
capacity for one days output.
An ice famine to-day would not be
nearly so serious as it would have
been during the war, when, owing to
the governments communicating Of
the ammonia, the artificial ice plants
we're terribly handicapped. The hos
pitfalls, charitable institutions, hotels
and large public buildings all have
their own refrigerator plants and
are therefore quite independent in
the matter Of their ice supply.

A Peace-time Conservation
Card Is Coming

In order to remind US of our duty
in this respect, the Department of
Public Markets is issuing an ice
conservation card which will be dis
tributed by the police officers to
every householder throughout the
city to be hung on the kitchen wall,
like the food conservation cards Of
a year ago, as a constant warning to
"Save Ice"
July and August are fairly we'll
taken care of, but the outlook for
September is dubious, particularly
if, as is very often the case, the
weather is extremely warm. We
shall still have the artificial ice, but
unless a supply can be brought from
Maine and other distant points to
supplement this we shall be in a
sorry plight. There are between
10000 and 10000 tons of ice stored
in Maine which are available, but
the cost of handling this and trans
porting it to New York would make
the retail price almost prohibitive
unless some plan can be evolved
which will defray this extra expense.
The ice dealers themselves have
come forward with such plan. The
price of ice has been fixed by the
wholesale dealers at $3.50 per ton,
and the president of one of the larg-
est ice companies at meeting Of
ice dealers held recently proposed
that they each give rebate of 10
cents for each ton sold, which will
be put into a sinking fund to be
used, when the time comes, to de-

To supplement the work which
these organizations are doing Mayor
Hylan has recently organized COM
mittee for the distribution of free
ice with the City Chamberlain, Mr..
Philip Berolzheimer, az its chair
man. This committee has established
stations in various parts Of the city,

uted, each in proportion to its size,
from two to ten tons Of ice a day
for those who could not afford to pay
for ice. This free ice is distributed
through seventy different organiza-
tions, all working in cooperation
with the Babies Welfare Associa-
ton. The condition of the families
is thoroughly investigated by trained
social workers who are sent out by
the various organizations so that
only those who are worthy shall re-

only one reason, but that is serious
one: the enormous cost Of these
plants. A plant which makes 100 tons
of ice day costs 100000 to
erect and equip, and when one real
ICES that the season is short-four
months at the most when the plant
is running at even its lowest capac-
ity-one can see that it is pretty
poor investment from a business
standpoint. Land is so expensive
hereabouts that the erection of store
