FOOD PRICE
REPORT / / Sent

Further Investigations May
Be Conducted in the Future
Says Mrs. Sprague.

The complete report on local food
prices compiled during the last few
days by special committee was for
warded to DR.. Ladd Of the federal
food administration board at Fargo,
today. Part Of the list was sent last
night and the complete list today, &C
cording to Mrs. r. A. Sprague, state
food inspector.
A fair price list will be drawn up
by DR.. Ladd to be issued for Grand
Forks. This list is expected to be
published in a very short time, ac-
cording to Mrs. Sprague.
1t is possible that weekly or bi-
monthly food price Investigations may
be made in Grand Forks said Mrs.
Sprague this afternoon. and this will
depend to some extent on the prices
being charged at the time of this
first investigation.
If the authorities. are confident
from the report that fair prices are
being charged here, 1t probably will
not be deemed necessary to make
any further Investigations Of the price
charged for food articles in this city.
If, on the other hand, there seems
to be a question on the fairness of
prices asked, the further investiga-
tions will probably be made here and
fair price lists issued regularly.
