FORCED?INSPECTORS TO BE PUT INTO THE FIELD?SOME PLAIN
TALK FOR SUGAR DEALERS AND COMMERCIAL USERS NEW
METHOD OF GOING AFTER PROFITEERS?CONSUMERS
! AND DEALERS ASKED TO CO-OPERATE.
Raleigh.?Plan? tor strengthening and very greatly expanding Lho Foe*
Administration organisation In North Carolina are being undertaken this
week by State Food Administrator Henry ?. Page who has Just returned trojs
A conference of State Food Administrators with Herbert Hoove* and his stall
at Washington. Mr. Page brings back trona Washington the lm?reeslon and
Information that all governmental agencies are settling down to hard work la
past experience and smoother running and mere effective
operation may be anticipated from now on.
To Employ Inspect o re
One Important feature of Mr. Page's new plan calls tor the appointment
of a number of Inspectors who will divide their entire time to lavestlgaiions
of alleged violations and to the examination of baker*, accounts and Invoices
and other records of wholesale and retail dealers, bottling works, drug starea
Ice cream manufacturing plants, soda fountains, flour mills, oottoa seed oil
mills, etc. When the new system of inspection is affeoUvg* tke elaborate r?
ports which hare been required of all licensed dealers or manufacturers will
h every greatly simplified. The extnesion of tk organisation will impose M
many additional administrative duties upen Mr. Page and executive seer*
tary Lucas that an increase in the office staff will also be necessary.
Sugar Regulation Rigid.
In no instance will there be a greater "tightening up" or more rigid eft
force men t of regulations than with thoee that apply to sugar. Mr. Page's
office Is already receiving from refiners and shippers of sugar statement?
showing In detail every shipment of sugar into North Carolina, la the imme
diate future every dealer who handles sugar will be required to keep an abso
lute record of all sales* of sugar from one pound up. No stated rports froa
these particular records will be required but suck stated reports from these
particular records will be required but such records will be subject to exam*
nation by Food Administration Inspectors at any and all t ime a. ^ -
All commercial users of sugar who disregard the ratiealng plan ot sugar
iistfcuted May 15th will ?be disciplined. Certflicates aje being Issue?) only toi
sugar supplies up to July first and many commercial ustrs kave failed to
apply for blanks upen wlrich to make their sworn statements and to apply
tor certificates because thoy have already reached or exceeded thlr allot
ment of sugar. Not only will such users have their suppliee equalized after
July first but In the absence of their sworn s t ate menu by Juno 16th, they will
be penalised as well. The Food Administration demands at all commercial
overs of sugar explanation of their status not later than June l&th. and no cor
ttftcates will be issued after June 15th encept under such circumstances as
*111 satisfy the Food Administration that fee delay In making sworn state*
ment and applying for certificates was justified?and It is Indicated tkat
neme tall explaining will be necessary to bring about this conviction.
Wholesalers or jobbers who sell sugar or su^ar syrup to commercial
users without receiving in exchange certificates Issued by the Food Admin*
trat Ion will have their licences revoked. Retailers who make such saleo will;
be blacklisted and be put out of business by that process.
Going After Profiteers.
The ruleo and regulations of the Food Ad m .nitration with regard to
margins of profit on foodstuffs will henceforth be more rlgdly enforced and
through the assistance of the inspectors who will be put in the field, profits
will be checked from the end nearest the consumer. Where the retail price
ot a commodity seems to be unreasonable the retailor will bo oalled upon U
sfcow his margin. If his margin is re^onable the Inspector will go to tke
wholeealer and If his margin waa reasonable the pursuit will continue to the
manufacturer or miller or other producer. It has not been practicable to I
follow this course in the pasfbiceuse of the lack of force to the inveo
ligations.
To stimulate and render effective the new system, consumers are now in
vlted to retort apjy^imtly excessive Alkies to ifeoir Gounty or Township Food;
Administrator and retailers who are charged ar~arenlly excessive prices by
wholesalers or jobbers are Invited to bring such prices to the attention of the
?ame authortf.es.
One class of dealers and millers the Food A-imlnLstration proposes to go
?fter comprises millers and dealers in corn me:.! and ether cereal substitutes
who have taken advantage of the fiour shortage and "50-50M combination sale
to extort unreasonable profits on corn meal and similar products The
wheat conservation program has been hide back by profiteers In corn meal and
other cereal substitutes and these gentlemen evidntly have something com
ing to them from the Food Administration
103% Effectivenesa.
"The Food Administration In North Carolina and throughout the United
8tates has determined to make Itself 100% effective." declared Mr. Page In
discussing the situation. "In everv instance th#i legitimne Interest nt nrrL
m ? ???? "U l JU .H i Lil. 11111 ?!?!?,!
?dmimstratloE ru-k-9 and repulstfcTis, designed as war measures to assist ont

extent of the law Our new ?ritem rJ ^
aumonty to require special reports of any dealer, class of dealers or lndl>
ridna'.s at any time, and the authority of onr inspectors to examine booka
accounts, invoices and other records of all dealers will enable as to promptly
spot violations and punish offenders. This greater ?2ii Mveaess will re
dound to the benefit of po/.rloUc acd hones? and unselfish pr&i :c?rs and ieeJors
t? well as consumers." ^
