Housewives Pay Nickle
More For Real Butter

WASHINGTON, Nov. / - ~
Housewives today began paying
five to six cents pound more for
butter because the government
cancelled a five-cents-a-pound war
time subsidy to butter producers.
The retail increase originally
was scheduled to 60 into effect
Nov 8, but was advanced at the
request of grocers. They com.
planned that they would be caught
in a price squeeze because whole
sale prices were being stepped up
today ahead Of retail prices.

Fiscal Year

BY an act Of congress, August
26, 1912, June 30 was fixed as the
end Of the governments fiscal year.
This date was chosen because the
secretary Of the treasury is required
by law to make a report on the
condition Of the treasury when con
gress assemblies. His only alterna-
tive since congress assembled early
In December (not until 1894 was the
date of converting moved to Jsnu-

port for the current calendar year
or to submit a report almost a year
old. June 30 was fixed as a date
which would enable him to pre-
pare a complete report for congress
