FOOD INSPECTORS
HOLD CONFERENCE
i i i i
Raleigh, December 30 The In
spectors for the Food Administra
tion in North Carolina were in con
ference today with State ; Food Ad
ministrator Henry A. Page. With
the removal of the regulations upon
eating-houtes and most of the regu
lations upon the wheat milling in
dustry, the work of the inspectors
is lightened to some extent and Ad
ministrator Page today instructed
the inspectors to devote the greater
part of their timennd attention to
the detection' of profiteering or
speculation in food stuffs aud to
preaching the gospel of conservation
so that food supplies may be avail
able for export to the starving mil
lions in Europe, 0
Profiteering will be severely pun
'shed up untiPthe day-the Food
Administrator ceases to be which
will be when the treaty of peace is
formally signed and proclaimed to
the, country by President Wilson.
