This is the last notice I expect to |

ort them to the Food Administraor.
It has been reported to me1
hat some merchants are charging!
[fore than 11.20 profit per barrel for,
lour which is the limit of profit fix ,
d by the Government. This means
he actual cost of flower at mill plus
reight and drayage. Because you'
ell it on time does not give you the!
ight to charge more than $1.20 perl
arrel. If you can't sell it at this
roflt my advice is not to sell it!
t all for if you do I am going to re:!
ort you just as certain as the sun ;
hines. You must not make overj
en per cent on sugar either. So1
lany complaints are coming in I am |
ompelled to take this measure?soj

One of the wholesale merchants;
ave me the price on flour tculay; this i
lcludes freight and drayage: Plain I
our $12.30; self raising flour $11.45
er barrel?add $1.20 per barrel to :iat
and it would be $12.50 and *
12.65 (Eight 24 pound bags equal'
barrel.) If you are being charged !
lore than this let me know. Penal-!
y for violation is four years in pris-1
n or $10,000. or both.
