Complaint Made That Re-
| tailers Reap a Profit of
= 100 Per Cent.

One source of wartime prices
which seems to be hanging on in the
face of a general reduction is that
of retail sales of ice cream by drug
gists and delicatessen stores. Com
plant has been registered over the
practice which seems to be general
throughout the city of charging at
the rate of from $3.50 to $3.50 per
gallon for the cooling delicacy. which.
1t is claimed, is a profit of 100 per
cent at the $3.50 per gallon retail
sales rate.
Ice cream requires the minimum of
handling and care in keeping on the
part of the retailer. The two local
ice cream companies serve cream TO
the retailer at the rate of $1-40
gallon. The retailer has no handling
to do except that of putting 1t in
the cartons when he makes sale.
The manufacturers deliver the cream.
ice it, salt it, and look after the con-
tainers. They even furnish the cab
inets in which it is kept in the re-
tail stores.
The retail prices vary according to
the sections of the city from SO cents
to 20 cents a quart In the south
east, southwest and part of the north
west sections the general price is 60
cents a quart, while some charge 65
cents In the Mount Pleasant section
the price is generally 20 cents
