"You will note that the state and
county food administrators have no
authority, under the laws of the
United States, to enforce fair prices
and are even bereft of the enforce
ment authority which they pos
sessed under the federal food act,
but I have no doubt that much good
will be accomplished by a careful
investigation, in each county Of the
state, of prevailing prices for food
products and the determination of
what fair prices ought to be, and
the publication of their findings as
a guide to consumers"

WATTLES SAYS HE
HAS LITTLE FAITH
IN FAIR PRICES"
Former State Food Chief De-
clares Move Is Merely a
Subterfuge."

G. w. Wattles, former federal
food administrator of Nebraska, re-
turning yesterday from California to
take UP the work of establishing
fair prices" for Nebraska, stated
that he has little faith in any prac-
teal results being obtained through
the fixing of so-called fair prices.
THE fixing of fair prices is mere
ly a subterfuge," Mr.. Wattles said.
"In the first place, the. food admin
istration has no legal authority in
this matter, and the result is that
the fixing of fair prices at this time
by the food administration, is max
ing a joke of what was serious
matter during the period of the war.

ASK JEFFERIS'
AID TO RELIEVE.
SUGAR SHORTAGE.
Market Committee of Omaha
Chamber Of Commerce
Sends Congressman
a Telegram.

The fruit developing and market
ing committee of the Omaha Cham
Der Of Commerce met yesterday to
discuss the sugar shortage here and
its effect on the sale of fruit. 1t
was decided to appeal to Congress
man A. w. Jefferis for aid.
The following telegram was sent
to the congressman:
Means Heavy Loss.
There is great sugar shortage
in Omaha. If jobbers do not get
some relief, it will soon mean a
heavy loss to grocers, jobbers and
merchants interested in the fruit
business here. We are of the opin-
ion that spectators are holding SUI
gar in Chicago and other markets
which should be turned loose now
while the canning season is on"
A similar appeal was made several
days ago to Senator Hitchcock, but
apparently without result. according
to members of the committee. 1t is
hoped that Congressman Jefferis
will furnish assistance in the pres
ent crisis, as it is estimated that
hundreds of Omaha families are
without white sugar at the present
time.
Propose Fruit Exchange.
The committee also discussed the
proposed formation of a fruit ex-
change in Omaha for the protection
of the shipper, the buyer and the
dealer. The formation of the ex-
change will mean the employment
of a fruit inspector who will inspect
all fruit received by Omaha commits
sion men.
The constitution and bylaws Of
the proposed exchange may be
drafted and adopted at meeting
in the near future.

according to announcement by r. H

national forest. Four hundred goats
ere to be turned loose along the fire
breaks In the San Bernardino noun
tains this summer.
The owner of the goats, w. H.
Moore Of Tucson. Ariz., will be al
lowed to Craze the goats for a nomi-
nal sum. They are to be tried out
between Cajon Pass and Oak Glenn,
and il the supply Of weeds and
grasses proves insufficient for the
goat appetite. the herd will be given a
wider opportunity.
There is no young timber in the
section in which the goats will be
allowed to Craze, and consequently 1t
Is felt that they a do no harm. Ii
by keeping the fire breaks clean o.
the underground that frequently
causes fires they prevent a single
blaze in the dry season, the expert
ment will have been fully justified
according to Mr.. Charlton.

PREPARES
SIDEWALK SCHEME

Streets and sidewalks were the
matters most discussed at the meeting
of the City Council held last night.
1t was decided to go into the matter
OF establishing uniform widths for
sidewalks for each street, to pass an
ordinance compelling sidewalks to be
laid according to the widths decided
upon. and thus lead up to the actual
laying of sidewalks on a large scale.
Councilmen will call upon property
owners in their respective wards in
an effort to induce them to "clean up
their premises. Many methods haze
been tried to gain this end and so now
each councilman will take it upon
himself to personally see to it that
vacant lots and yards are kept IN
proper shape.
Routine business, passing of bills,
occupied most of the session.
