producers and 80 officers and
employees.
The complaint charged that
under a plan developed in 1892
by the Gray company and the
Institute virtually every pro-
Queer in the United States
pooled his wood alcohol re-
sources and that sales were per-
mitted only through the Gray
company.
Prices, the cove m e n
charged, were fixed by agree
ment between Gray and a COM
mittee of the Institute, with pro-
duction quotas assigned to each
producer. While three producers
were permitted TO sell certain
grades of wood alcohol directly,
the complaint said, these sales
were made only at prices previ-
ously agreed upon.

tlIiS 'OitIi IcOSOflS why tIle
prices charged are as they
ore. Quote:
"Some tenants leave their
radios on full blast as well as
all the lights. They block
up sewers, destroy window
shades, break dishes, and tear
up mattresses. They also
wash their clothes and turn
on all the burners in the kit
chen in spite Of intense sun
engendered heat outside. One
tenant I know stayed two
months and never swept the
floors and her husband had to
wash the dishes and open the
cans of food for their meals.
The garbage was only TAX
en- out when 1t began to
decay kitchen utensils
were taken house keys
forgotten to be turned in
salt, pepper, coffee, sugar and
other food items borrowed
and neglected to be return
ed"
Yes, we agree there are
many sides to the rOom-rent-
ing problem but at the
rate the Yanks and their AL
lies are going we hope the end
Is in sight.
No longer may we use the

Since our story on the price
of coffee, a story in which
we attempted to ascertain
prices charged by various
drug stores and restaurateurs,
we have had requests for the
same type Of research work on
the number of rabbits, pleas
ants, price of pie, beer, liquor,
number of automobiles that
pass a given point, the number
of bricks in the Monitor
Leader building, and assorted
projects. Now most of the
projects mentioned could be
carried out, with the excep-
ton of the one dealing with
beer and hard drinks. There
are too many bars, and aller-
gies.
