FOOD STUFFS
DOWN, MEATSUP
Retailers Say Housewives
Can Bring Meats Down
BY Careful Buying
GOOD PRICES FOR
FRESH VEGETABLES

THE wholesale price on foodstuff
generally has dropped about 30 per
cent" said william f. shellenger.
manager Of the Retail Grocers As
sociation, this morning. He said.
The retail grocers, like merchants in
other lines. who have bought their
stock on a falling market. have not
dropped prices that much, as they
are trying to recover the amount in
vested in their stock.
The wholesale price OF meats con-
tinue to increase. Since the closing
of the markets last Saturday after
noon. until today. two cent a pound
wholesale increase has been made in
fresh beef Smoked hams showed
another increase of one cent a pound
wholesale today Lambs were being
sold by the packers for 22 cents a
pound, showing an increase Of three
cents a pound, making the retailers
pay 25 cents today. Notwithstanding
these increases in price most Of the
King and Madison street retailers
are selling their commodities at last
weeks prices today.

packers last week at 29i5 cents a
pound and this week at 3ois cents a
pound, but are retailing at 80 cents
a pound. Many of the retailers
have been trying to induce patrons
of the markets, TO purchase corned
beef which when cooked with cab
bage. is a relishable dish. This
kind OF meat is selling at 10 to IS
cents q pound. One retailer by ex-
planning conditions controlling the
markets to his customers, was able
to dispose of two barrels of corn beef
since last Saturday He said if peo-
pic would use more of this kind of
meat or vary their flesh foods. the
markets would be more stable. He
explained. that most people get accus-
toned to eating the best cuts of beef
and refrain from buying the cheaper
cuts. this makes the cheaper meats
a drug on the markets and being
/ forced to hold them in cold storage
the packers make the meats sold pay
| for losses on cheaper cuts.
The farmers curb markets along
King and Madison streets we're well
stocked this morning with corn, to-
matoes, potatoes, cabbage, string

GRIPS RUSSIA
So Strong That Soviet Is
Forced To Repeal Dras-
tic DEGREES
GOVERNMENT FEARS
CHURCH PROGRESS

BERLIN. June 90 (By MaiD.-
Bishop Tykhon. brother Of Patri-
arch Tykhon. chief of the synod of
the Russian orthodox church, today
gave an exclusive account of the
new religious fervor now sweeping
over Russia and the attendant op-
timism inspiring the Russian church
to hope for. the restoration of its old
grandeur and power.
The Russian church." said
Bishop Tykhon. "does not mix up
in the political affairs of the State.
notwithstanding the fact that the
Soviet Government did not hesitate
to rob the church and made every
attempt to kill its activity. DEGREES
we're issued depriving the church of
all its property. Religious process
sions of all kinds were forbidden
and, since the beginning Of the rev
olution, 80 bishops and nearly 1000
priests have been shot
Only when the Soviet Government
realized that the religious spirit OF
the Russian masses was too strong
to permit these DEGREES from being
/ carried out without danger to It's
own security did they repeal these
stringent measures. Religious serv-
/ ices were again leEalized and orders
to mobilize all priests for military
/ service were never carried out.
These mass measures never ter.
rifed us. Any reports that we ac.
cepted the Communist Government
with approval, or that because Of
anxiety for our own safety we hesi.
tated to denounce their crimes, yot
may brand as false. AS early al
1913, our Arch Patriarch Tykhon is
sued a holy anathema against thu
soviets that was signed by all the
members Of the church synod print
ed. and Illegally circulated over th'
whole of Russia
THE latest great religious process
sion in Petrograd is only one O.
many that are being held in ever.
city throughout the country. TIT
enthusiasm and popular approva
are only symptomatic Of the. grea
religious revival that is sweeping tn
country. Don't think for one mo
ment that this movement is restrict
ed to the peasants and the ignoran
classes Many Communists are ais
attending our services and this fea
ture Of our strength is most serious
ly worrying the Russian Govern
ment.
Our work is being carried on un
