PRICES OF FOOD
AT RETAIL VARY,
INQUIRY REVEALS
Some Higher, Others Lower
Than Those Established as
"Fair" by Comptroller.

An Investigation made by Evening
World reporters to-day in Manhat-
tan, the Bronx and Brooklyn dis
closed two striking facts:
That retail groesrs and butchers
are generally charging prices
considerably higher than thoseI
established by the Federal Food
Administration as fair.
BY making the rounds Of the
retail dealers, buying one COM
modify in one neighborhood,
others in another, II is possible
70 buy almost everything mem
toned in the Federal list At
prices even lower than those
quoted as "fair."
The apparent discrepancy may be
accounted for by variations Of quail
ity. Federal Administrator Williams
stated that the prices in his list were
TO be considered fair for high class
goods and that for inferior goods the
retail prices ought to be lower than
his list.
Reporters VISITED the markets in all
actions OF the city and found that
in some sections a single merchant
would have PRICES on some items
much higher than those OF the Fed
eral list, while on other items MS
prices were below. Merchants said
this was due to the character Of their
trade. A Harlem butcher, for in
stance, said:
MY price on chuck steak is 20
cents a pound. which is IL cents lower
than the Federal list. The reason Is
that my customers don't want chuck
steak and most of them won't take
1t at any price"
The same merchant was charging
about 10 cents more than the list for
sirloin steak. His prices we also
above the list on loin chops, shoulder
chops, rib chops, bacon and several
other items.
The commodities hardest to get at
or below the prices named as fair
are: Sugar, canned corn, potatoes
onions. bottom round steak, loin
chops and shoulder chops.
Many Of the retail dealers said
that the prices listed by the Food
Administrator were not fair. holding
that he had neglected to consider
items cost other than quoted whole
sale prices, and even on these prices
IL was said that the Administrator
was frequently inisinformed.
Both in Brooklyn and in Manhat-
tan there were dealers who chal-
lenged the Administrator to show
them where they could buy at
wholesale at prices justifying the re-
tail prices that he named.
Henry j. Hauck. a retail butcher
at No $50 Ninth Avenue, this after
noon defied Food Comptroller Arthur
Williams to buy meats at the whole
sale prices quoted by him. Mr. Hauck
barred his books to an Evening World
representative and showed that yes
terday he paid 43 cents pound toi
smoked ham in Washington Market
Mr.. Williams's list showed that the
/, public should be able TO buy smoked
ham for from "A 10 As cents a pound
''Mr. Williamss prices are all
wrong" he said. II should like him
10 20 with me TO Washington Market
and show me where l can buy whole
sale at the prices he mentions. Il
can't be done. I am making but
twelve per cent. profit and my over
head Is almost that much"
The Vice President of one of the
largest grocery houses in the city
declared Mr.. Williams was way OFF
in his price quotations.

DANGER IN FORCING OUT FOOD
TOO QUICKLY.


with this Nation rapidly gravitat-
ing toward food control, II might be
well TO remind those interested that
a reduction in prices must go hand
in-hand with constructive conserva-
tion; TO force these foods out OF
warehouse at once would force down
the prices below the cost Of pro-
duction. Then Europe would be at
tracted by the low cost and take
enough TO shorten our supply, and
thus In a few months the prices
might be higher than they are now.
We have fully 100000 cases of eggs
in the United States. These eggs u
held longer than late December will
deteriorate so rapidly that the food
value would be greatly impaired or
partly wasted. The following ratio
OF reductions OF the holdings OF
storage eggs, suggested by The Eve
ming World, would be fair TO
both the consumers and the yner-
chants and would obviate any
serious loss that might result from
inJudicious marketing. A gradual
reduction OF stocks computed on
Sept. 1, as follows; September, 10
per cent; October, is per cent; No
vember S5 per cent; December. rs
per cent: January and February, i6
per cent. BY this method each mer-
chant would know how many eggs
he would have to move each month
and would make his arrangements
In advance. The season for moving

much longer than for eggs, the for.
mer season extending over TO the
middle OF next May.
The market on fresh eggs declined

. panicky. The merchants who stored
eggs against the advice of The Eve
ming World are now realizing theli
{ position. European demand canno
develop into a sufficient volume Z,
save the situation, while the extraor-
dinarlly large crop OF laying hem
in the country insures an early win
