FOOD BILL FATE
UP TO SENATE
Palmer's Course Against
Gouger Depends Upon
Favorable Action.

Events in the governments effort
to bring down the high cost of living
last night were turning about prob
able Senate action on legislation asked
ty Attorney General Palmer.
Before the week is over Palmer
will probably know whether he is to
get the extension OF the wartime food
control act, which he has asked and
which the House has already grant
ed, or whether he must base, his ac-
tons on existing laws.
Palmer has. made 1t plain to Sem
ators that hs considers essential the
new legislation, which would provide
q hne and prison sentence for food
pronteers. include clothing in >the
food control act and give him addi-
uonal power to stop profiteering by
retailers
So far members of the Senate Agri-
culture Committee who have Palmer's
proposals under consideration have
not been favorable to them.
While awaiting Senate action. the
Department of Justice. ii was an
nounced tonight. is going ahead with
its campaign to organize fair price
associations made up of dealers and
the public in every large city. Deal
ers who sell goods for more than the
fair prices are liable to. prosecution.
Notwithstanding the fact that the new
legislation has not received hnal
action.
Food hoard seizures are also 10 con-
tinue. it was made plain today by the
department in estimating that food
TO a total value of about s9, 500, 90 has
been seized during this week
Early developments are also antici-
pated in connection with Palmer's an
nouncement that the packers had vio-
lated antitrust law.
In COnSress, action in addition to
Senate developments on the food con-
troll law amendments is expected.
The House Agriculture Committee
will take up A bill by Representative
Hutchinson. New Jersey. prohibiting
the cold storage of food more than
ten months. except by consent of the
Secretary Of Agriculture. and provid-
ing that all cold storage food must
be so stamped.
This is one OF the measures suG-
gested by President Wilson.
Another measure along the lines
suggested by the President is before
the House Judiciary Committee. 1t
provides a licensing system for cor
pOratiOns.
The House Appropriations Commit
tee Monday is to take up requests for
additional appropria tions by the De
partment Of Justice and others to
carry on the war to reduce prices.

vealed the fact that he recently had
