A decline of more than IS cents In the
Wholesale price OF creamery butter. or
from 20 cents on January II to 561a
cents a pound yesterday. was taken as
a forerunner OF lower general food
prices in local market circles. The drop
which has been gradual daily for the
last two weeks, was attributed by some
dealers to more normal market condi-
lions. Others commended that they saw
IN the decline evidence OF cancellation
OF Government and allied orders, the
effects OF continued mild weather and in
creased production of butter by members
Of the Darymens League.

tons. Others commended that they saw
IN the decline evidence OF cancellation
OF Government and allied orders, the
effects OF continued mild weather and in
creased production of butter by members
Of the Dairymen's League.
Fresh Eggs Are Cheaper.
Fresh gathered eggs were sold at
wholesale yesterday at 81 cents, as
against rs cents a year ago.
Cheese still remains high. Late quo
tations for domestic cheese were around
81 cents pound, as compared with 80
cents last December and 26 cents in
January, 1918.
Much emphasis was laid by handlers
Of foodstuffs yesterday on the fact that
the descending prices simply indicate
what will happen II the law of supply
and demand is allowed to work in the
case OF all commodities without the
handicaps Of governmental restrictions.
This is the way one Produce Exchange
man put it: I'VE will assume all these
Government bureaus were essential for
the conduct of the war but now that
the war is over in fact II not in theory,
the tendency OF the Government to re-
tain these bureaus is move toward
paternalism and bureaucracy. This fight

fetal Government methods. but II is a
fight against paternalism and bureau
cracy."
Trade papers are beginning to deal IN
the plainest kind of English with the
popular cry for relief from conditions
which are strangling business and are
making existence hard for the consum-
ing public. So far as can be learned
none has gone on record as asserting
that war time prices" must be main
tsined in times OF peace.
Trade Papers Demand Action.
All Of the trade journals apparently
are agreed that there must be action
that will restore business to n normal
basis The only question which is wor-
ryng folks is the manner In which the
adjustments may be worked out with
the least possible harm to everybody
Under the caption Growing Antagon-
ism Toward High Prices" the Boxers
Weekly said yesterday:
Recently there has been conspicuous
growth and spread of aversion toward
the high cost of living. While the war
prevailed good citizens generally bore
the heavy burdens of high cost with
commendable patience. many paying out
their few dollars without noticeable dis
content; but now the war has stopped
4 has become entirely different. Know
ing that war invariably forces prices up
they did not complain loudly, but on
the other hand they feel equally sure
that peace must spell lower cost"
