COST OF MILK

Editor The Star: II was with a
great deal OF amusement read
an article In your paper which was
presumably an interview with
Harry IL. Stuart. secretary OF the
Carnation Milk Co, In which Il
was stated that milk is TO stay
Mt high price" and the reason is
that "this effort 10 bring down Iiv-
ing costs viii never be reached
that tho end win not be what the
consumer dreams OF. Tho reason
In this--they won't go far enough
with tho campaign"
VIII agree with Mr.. Stuart
that they won't 40 far enough
with the campaign.
One OF the first things the fed
eral department should Investigate
Is milk-both fresh and condensed
AS IL is ono OF the greatest ne
cessities we consume.
Mr.. Stuart apparently lays the
blame for tho present high price OF
milk on the farmer. who receives
s3.1b n hundred pounds for his
product. which Is at tho ratio OF
ABOUT la cents a quart, or 3 lie
cents a pint or pound. What the
public would like to know is why
they are compelled 10 pay around
10 cents for a quart of fresh milk
That cost only 8 ga cents and the
same sum for pint can of Car
nation condensed milk from which
most OF tho butter fat has been ex-
tracted. 1t looks to man up n
tree as " the people are being
stung by tho condenseries and
wholesalers OF milk to greater
extent than on most any other
commodity OF consumption, and the
federal authorities would do well
to begin their Investigations In this
locality with milk.

A Little Suggestion

e the deputy supply officer in Seattle to be sold to
the people at reduced rates.
Attic the food will be bought by various communities
Washington and Idaho in bulk lots to be sold to the
people thru institutions such the public market or city
Tocery stores, the bigger part of the food will be dis
t1buted to the consumers thru the postoffice
For over week, Seattle mail have been taking
orders for the food and the results satisfactory
The statement Of the average housewife is:
I'm skeptica. bought some army bacon once This
time want to what get"
Would it not be good idea for the deputy zone supply
officer to downtown store window to dispiav
Uncle Sans groceries? Then Mrs. A. H. could at least
what she buying and she'd spend her money more
freely.

Economic Boycott May Be Used
Against Powers Abusing
DEGREES of League.
PLANK BEING FRAMED
international Trade Commission 10
Suggested to Gather Data Concern
ino Commercial, Industrial and
Financial Operations.

Washington. Feb. 18.-Extensive
plans for using the economic boycott
as weapon against nations failing to
abide by DEGREES of the proposed
league Of nations have been devised
by American financiers and trade rep
rcsentatives now in Europe.
According to official information
here they are preparing to urge upon
the peace conference adoption OF
measures making possible close inter-
national cooperation in the applica-
tion Of economic principles to replace
use Of armed force to great extent.
World Trade Board Suggested.
No specific machinery for putting
into effect measlEes Of economic boy-
colt has been urged upon. even by
the American representative. pending
further development of the plan for
the league of nations. 1t has been
suggested. however. that some sort Of
an international trade commission be
established to gather information con.
cerning commercial. industrial and
financial operations OF each country.
Officials OF the Treasury. Depart
ment of Commerce and War Trade
board familiar with the plans of the
American representatives at Paris.
said this body might be entrusted
with powers to investigate unfair trade
practices. which might easily develop
into international irritation and war as
we'll as to set in motion the economic
forces against nations transgressing
international agreements.
American Commission as Pattern.
Under the American plan the manip.
ulation of the supply of raw mate
rials and the purchase of manufac.
tured products and. of financial ar
rangements between countries, would
be the principal means of effecting u
boycott IL these measures would be
made thoroughly effective. American
representatives believe they would
often eliminate the necessity of using
armed force.
The international commission also
might develop broad constructive pow.
or to work out better plans for inter-
national financial cooperation. such as
the establishment of foreign ex-
change gold pool and standardization
of multitude of trade laws and prac-
tices. The international high commits
sion. including only North and South
American nations, might be taken as
pattern for development of some of
the functions.
