C. Plummer of the Shipping Board declared last night in an address be- fore the Middle West Foreign Trade | Convention. An indication of the ef- fect of eliminating that tonnage from seaborne traffic can be gained, he sald, from the recent experiences of the oll trade. “Last January,” Mr. Plummer said, “when the groat fleet of American tankers was avallable for service the rates from Mexico across the At- lantlo were 16s 9d per ton. The change in Mexican supply and the forcing of ~American tankers into long voyages from the Pacific coast with ofl, calling for three times the onnage’ necessary for the shorter run upon which they were previous- ly occupled, removed the surplus ton- e from 'the ofl trade; and imme- diately the British shipowner raised his rates until today they are prac- tically three times what they were five months ago. g Denies Britain’s Clatm. Denying that Great Britain has any honest claim to the title of “free trade” nation, the commissioner de- clared that “discrimination in favor of British goods sent to foreign mar- another port they may have the priv- ilege of booking that freight and re- porting it to the district director at the port through which that cargo is to go.

IT has often been said of Ice Cream that its palatability would be impaired by making it rich in milk solids and sugar--particularly if the CREAM (butterfat) con- tent reached or exceeded 14 per cent. Fatter It Is, Better Public Likes Ice Cream, Tests by U. S. Prove - The correctness of such statements has generally been questioned, but no one has ever shown in a systematic way the actual rate at which desirability may be altered by using various percentages of cream (butterfat), sugar, and other constituents of Ice Cream, until quite recently when the Dairy Division of the Department of Agricul- ture undertook the task. —uwhere assistance and advice are cheerfully given.

Campbell of the department ice creams of dif- ferent composition were sold on a market, where fifty daily purchasers had an opportunity to choose from three different kinds without know- ing anything about the ingredients contained. Varying the butterfat content made a great difference in the preference shown for the ice cream. Eighty-two per cent of the purchasers favored that which contained 18 per cent of fat; 10.4 per cent chose that contain- ing 15 per cent, and 7.6 per cent voted for the product containing 12 per cent. There was not such a decided pref- erence for a high sugar content, but it was very noticeable. More than 60 per cent preferred ice cream contain- ing 19 per cent sugar; nearly 30 per cent preferred a sugar content of 16 per cent, and 10 per cent chose the product with 13 per cent of sweeten- Now For That g CALIFORNIA TRIP Greatly Reduced Summer Fares The article reproduced herewith, which appeared in the June 18 issue of “The Evening Star,” gives an interesting summary of these tests.

The fat content of ice cream does not seem to have a great-effect on the quantity a person will eat, - except when it is very rich. There was very little difference in the quantities eaten of ice cream containing 10 per cent and 13 per cent fat. = See Our Very Important ‘Announcement in the EVENING PAPERS TOMORROW sort to the injection of ARTI- FICIAL GASES, TREATED AIR or other practices of doubt- ful value. ’ CHAPIN-SACKS CORP.
