CAPPER FLAYS
DELIVERY COST
Senator Finds Enormous Differ
ence Between Food Producers
and Consumers Prices.
Nv ARTHUR CAPPER,

Untted states Senator Froa hshsss
Something Is radically wrong
with a national system OF distribu-
ton which permits Of absolute waste
OF food products In one section OF the
country when In other sections there
exists good demand.
FRUIT PRICES HIGH.
That condition occurs frequently In
the United States. In the fruit-pro-
ducing sections OF Michigan and New
York press reports declare that large
quantities Of fruit rotted and was
wasted because there was ne market
Tor It
At tho same time high prices pre-
vailed for fruit in the midwest
where the crop was cut short by late
spring frosts. Producers In New York
and Michigan the reports state. did
not obtain profitable prices for their
crop despite the fact that other sec
lions of the country were anxious 10
4 buy Probably inadequate tranapor-
tation facilities and shortage or labor
were factors in this condition. But
At any rate the system OF distripu-
! tion failed to function to the profit
tltneT Oh the piouuSSA VI VIZ W.
sumer.
HOW DOLLAR IS DIVIDED.
There is an enormous spread be-
tween the price the producer obtains
for his products and the price the
consumer pays for them. This spread
occurs in the marketing and distribu-
ton of those products. The Califor'
MIA Fruit Growers Exchange made
an investigation to deter nine how tn,
consumers dollar was DIVIDED
Thirty representative markets were
included and SASS reports were OBJ
tanned. The results showed that the
factors entering into the division OF
the consumers dollar spent In buying
citrus fruit in 1914, are:
Retail distribution cost (gross)
! 1873 per cent; jobbers' distributor
cost (gross), 50 per cent! growers
selling cost. is per cent; freight ano
refrigeration cost POS per cent. pack
ing house cost. "A per cent; cost OF
picking and hauling to packing house
"A per cent: proportion retained FOL
fruit on the tree. 2G.7 per cent.
These figures are supplied by G
Harold Powell, general manager OF
the California Fruit Growers Elk
change. Los Angeles. They show
that the retailer gets 1873 per cen,
and the growers 267 per cent of the
consumers dollar. The cost OF job
bling and retailing is 415 pei
cent. In one town the jobber's mark
up was 10 per cent, and in another
town % per cent, showing a wide
variation. The retailers margins ~
from 20 to rs per cent.
Herbert Hoover recently made thi:
ctatamapf. margins hetwee
our farmers and the wholesalers II
commodities-other than grain. IL
some instances-even in normal times
are the highest in any civilized coun
try--fully % per cent higher that
in most European countries"

Auuitania Arrives
After First Voyage
As an Oil Burner
Cunard Liner ON First Trip
to This Port Since Sept,
1919, Brings 2,443 Pas
sengers From Liverpool

The Cunard liner Aquitania came to
New York yesterday for the first time
since September 18, 1919. She has been
refittcd and is now an oil burner. She
brought 2,443 passengers from Liver
pool.
1t was originally intended to start
the ship from Southampton, but labor
troubles decided the Cunard Line to
make the change. The ship was in the
hands of her old commander, Captain
T. N. w. Charles, who was knighted
by the British government for his war
work.
The only thing that married the Aqui-
tania's first trip as an oil burner was
the death on July Is of the seventh
assistant engineer, Seymour parkway
who was killed by scaldng when a
high pressure steam valve broke.
fireman, James Curran, was also badly
scalded. parkway was buried at sea.
Walter Hagen, open golf champion of
America, and Tommie Armour, twenty
four, of Edinburgh, who is Scottish
amateur and open golf champion, were
aboard. Mr.. Hagen said that he was
not at his best when he lost in the
British open championship matches at
Kent, and that in France he did much
better, winning the open championship
there, He is going back to England
next spring, he said, to try again. q.
j. H. White, whose fuel oil burning
system has been installed beneath the
furnaces of the Aquitania, was pas
senger. NJ. H. Maxwell, a director of
the Cunard Line, and John Austin, SUI
pervising engineer of the Cunard
Steamship Company, also made the
trip.
The Aquitana burned about GAO tons
of oil each day of the voyage, as
against $50 tons of coal. She started
with $500 tons of oil, taken on in
England 1t is said that 1900 tons of
oil will be taken on here and that
that will be sufficient for round trip
Mr.. Austin said that a tanker would
lay alongside the Aquitania and SC
save the time and expense of twice
handling the oil, by pumping it from
one ship to the other.
