WINSLOW RATESFOR WATER ARE CUT LESS
 THAN HALF BY STATE

Winslow water rates have taken a smart tumble as the result of an order issued yesterday by the state cor poration commission in the matter, to Lake effect from August l.
 The matter has been under discus sion and experimental regulation for some time, and is yet, no final rate having been set. The water for the town of Winslow is supplied by the santa Fe Land Improvement company a subsidiary of the Santa Fe railroad which brings water from Clear creek for the use of both the town and the railroad company.
 Formerly most of the water was used by the town, and was so carelessly used by the townspeople at the flat rate prevailing that, according to the opinion just issued by the commission much of 1t was wasted A hearing was held last year and it was decided that the only cure for the condition was 10 meter the water to the private con- sumers, and the rate was set at $1.75 for the first 5000 gallons and 55 cents for each 1000 thereafter
 Recently the matter was brought up again by the complaint of J. H. Arm strong and others, who alleged that the .rate was so high the people in Winslow could not afford to use water suffi- cient to keep their lawns and trees watered and alive
 The matter was fully investigated and the order just issued is the result of that hearing. and sets a new tempo rary rate of g cents for each 1.0oC gallons over the minimum. or a little less than half the former rate.

Flynn with all special agents of the bureau of investl- gation, department of justice, in Ari- zona. following instructions of the at torney general contained in his tele- gram of August 6.

Particular attention was de- voted to sections 4, 6, 8 and 25 of the Food Control Act.
 OFcetS FFomPt Hctlon
 Disclosure of any violation of the law or of the regulations and rules promulgated by the president under the authority granted him by the Food Control Act will be followed bv prompt action While additional legislation would greatly help in making the work more effective. it is the opinion of the United States attorney that there is ample legislation under the present law and regulations to justify prosecutions in many instances of profiteering going on in this district.
 Since publicity has been given this matter numerous complaints have reached the United States attorney's $ office concerning the exorbitant rates charged for products in the various cit ies of this state and some reports of the willful boarding of necessaries and enhancing prices with the result of deterioration in storage Of these neces- saries and their subsequent removal after becoming unfit for food purposes.
 Penalty for Destroying Good Food
 Section of the Food Control Act specifically denounces such an offense. Tt is hereby made unlawful for any person willfully to destroy any neces saries for-fne purpose Of enhancing the price or restricting the supply there of The penalty is provided by sec ton 8 to be Q fine not exceeding s. 5.0OO or imprisonment for not more than two years, or both.
 Section of the act renounces the hoarding of neeessaries and provides the same punishment, and under il necessaries are deemed to be boarded when they are: (a) held, contracted for, or arranged for by any person in
