manufacturers said, because the
drop In the -four market had been
offset by the increase in freight
rates on -four.
Some variations in the retail
price OF bread at the stores has
been noted by the trade, but this
is accounted for. the manufacturers
say, by the fact that some OF the
grocers have been retailing at cost
while others have sold at a margin
