Rhode Island has enacted law CIV
ing to its Licensing Board. called the
Alcoholic Beverage Commission, power
Ito fix the wholesale prices OF all such
commodities (beverages), to be sold
within this State or to be imported
or brought into the State or exported
therefrom, and to raise or lower such
prices in whole or in part from time

This legislation recognizes the cru
cial importance of regulating price, but
one may doubt whether Rhode Island
has proposed workable method OF
accomplishing the result. 1t is not
likely that a State Liquor Licensing
Board can exercise power to fix prices
without running afoul of the strongest
kind of opposition and interference
from the private business interests in

not be inclined to stand idly by. nor
will the public accept as reasonable a
system which gives such fortuitous

veritable field day of court actions. At
the very least, between the Licensing
Board and the private dealers state
of war will inevitably develop, into
which the Legislature will be drawn.

The authority would be equally con-

and with avoiding the stimulation Of
consumption which might follow too
low a level of prices
1t would even be possible for the
authority to sell certain products at a
price below what would show a profit.

a measure of promoting temperance

DR., Frederic c. Howe, consumers
counsel for the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration, was called upon today
by Mrs. John Boyle, jr.. chairman of
the Consumers Council here. to demand
an investigation into manufacturers
and wholesalers prices and costs. in
an effort to ascertain why finished
goods have advanced so much in price
since the National Recovery Admins
tration was set up.
Mrs. Boyle and the Consumers Coun-
Gil have joined Washington's retail
merchants in making the request. 1t
was developed in hearing some weeks
ago that manufacturers and wholesalers
are marking up goods arbitrarily when
billing them to retailers fo- distribu-
ton to the public.
1t is the hope of the council to ascer-
tain exact increases in the costs of labor
and other additional expenses under
the N. R. A. codes to determine whether
the public is paying more than its share
for finished products.
Retailers Not Blamed.
Mrs. Boyle's letter to Dr. Howe gives
the retail merchants full credit for ef-
forts to keep prices down to a reason
able level to the consumers. even at
the expense of smaller profits for the
stores.
disclosure of these facts can not fail
to reaSSure consumers that their retail
merchants are honestly seeking to aid

the necessary steps with the N. r. A. to
have an investigation made.

They should be called upon to justify
their prices, if they can. If the prices
are excessive, they should be reduced.
Labor Costs Questioned.
1T is not at all certain that labor
costs in the mills have increased as the
manufacturers claim. Members of the
Consumers Council representing or
ganized labor tell us that in some
cases, at least, mills have managed to
avoid higher labor costs by reducing the
pay of the better paid groups Of workers
to offset the higher rate paid the low
wage group.
The entire situation should be given
a hearing without delay by N. r. A..
and it is the hope of my executive
board that Dr. Howe will take steps to
have such hearing called. as provided
