May 21, there came press telegram: “Markets are to be found In the United States, if possible, for the mil- lions of pounds of meat and millions of cans of vegetables held by the War Departm . Department has 200,000,000 younds of meat and 100,000,000 cans of vegetables, And the War Department plans to sell as much of the surpius food products as possible in the United States, “Representative Fitzgerald's reso- lution to force foodstuffs out of storage ty aimed principally at thed War be; ‘tment’s announced plan of aiding the packers in disposing of surplus meat stocks without placing them on the domestic market.” Here is a decided victory for the consumers of the United States, gained by the consistent and con- structive efforts of The Evening World in behalf of the overtaxed con- sumer. Secretary Baker admitted a few days ago that the ef companies suggested that this vast amount of cheap foodstuffs should be sold for export, but at the solicitation of The thongs World that programme has! 8 been changed, this time in favor of the American consumer. The latest report given out by the Government, based on estimates of about ten thousand reporters, indi- cates a substantial increase in the number of food animals on the farms | jj of the United States iy the following AN AGSENT-MINDED SMOKER MIGAT TAKE THE PLATE For An ASA TRAY!

One of our largest retail meat distributors, when asked to rec- se oncile the difference between the or- | fiTiRed bass, 1b. dinary and the high-cost cuts of meat, | \ replied: "You simply can't sell chucks and ordinary low-priced cuts of meat any more, So many of your customers want the high-priced steaks and roasts that you can hardly seli any- thing else.” This simply bears out the result of @ canvass among the uptown butch- ers. Most.of the butchers selected out prime medium steers at 22c. to 28c., although retailers in high-class neighborhoods occasionally paid 23%4e. to 2c. on prime stail-fed steers. This should enabie retailers to make @ profit on roasts by charging the consumers 6c, to 38c. on rib roast and 42c. to 48c. on steaks, but closely trimmed porterhouse steaks should not cost more than 48c. to 50c. except where the retailer extends credit and furnishes delivery. ‘The Jewish housewives in most sec- tions are paying excessive prices for their meats; shoulder steak should not cost over 28c. to &2c. and breast meat, trimmed, can be sold at a profit at 0c, to 82c., while soup meat this week should not cost more than 28e, to 26c, per Ib. and 28c. would be quite extreme.

Eggs were driven up in price by speculators until the wholesale market reached 49c. to 60c. This was a disastrous mistake to run up the prices 4c. to a dozen when the trend of values should be in the other direction, Through the pub- licity given the wholesale market on eggs by Tho Evening World, con- sumers purchased eggs for the past three months closer to the wholesale prices than ever before. Eggs are still of fine quatity and prices should | be lower to consumer at end of week. There is an abundant supply of fresh fish this week, especially of the summer varieties, such as had- dock, cod, mackerel, flounders, por- gies and jile, while mullets and carp were the plentiful varieties of the fresh lake fish, Consumers should ask for these varieties that are in the market and not the rare kinds that are high in price, Cabbages are quite plentiful and low in price. New and old potatoes are low in price in the wholesale market. In the line of breakfast fruits, peaches, strawberries, canta- | loupes and watermelons are getting into market and will be here in larger | quantities next week, Retall priges given on these fruits afford the dealer a liberal profit. | The prices given below afford the | retailers a fair margin of profit and close buyers should get the best grades at the inside prices: MEATS—Retall.

Little Girl, Ran Over by Train, Clang to Her “Welcome” Flag. Ever since troops have been return+ ing home via Camp Merritt, the little girls of Tenafly, N. J., have been at the station of the Northern Railroad of New Jersey to welcome every troop train, Anna Campbell, nine years old, bolted out yesterday with the announcement she was going to meet the “sojers” who had arrived on the Leviathan, She stumbled and fell under the en- gine. Two cars passed over her, Both legs were severed and she was killed, Hundreds of soldiers rushing from their cars made no effort to hold back the tears. In Anna's hand, when they extricated her form, was still gr) tightly the pennant ‘Inscribed, ‘ me." pons aieacars itch Frederic Thompson Still Improving.
