F EDERAL PROSECUTING
WRITES FOOD ADMINISTRATORS AND
FAIR PRICE COMMITTEES
To County Food Administrators and County Fair Price Committees:
Please mail me the names snd postoflke addresses of each member of the
Fair Price Committee in your county, and oblige.'
Fair Price Committees should not raise prices, but reduce prices where
necessary. Original cost should be the

mined by the court in any particular case. In ascertaining what is a reasonable
charge, the original cost is one factor to be considered, the replacement value tax: John D. Craven, a cripple of Cole

The jurisdiction of the Fair Price Committees will include foods, feeds,
fuel and wearing apparel. Whether all of these subjects shall be investigated
is a matter for each local committee to deternpne for itself according to its
own requirements, although in the larger center it is important that the activi
ties of the committee will cover the entire subject. The best men should com
pose the committees. ,
Dealers should be advised to accept the prices suggested by the committee
and the consumers should be urged to
"Make Profiteermsr Unpopular" should be the motto of the campaign.
At present the law does not punish

passed the House and are now pending in the Senate to remedy thise two de
fects in the Act If and when these amendments are adopted profiteering,
either individually or collectively, in any of the commodities above named will
be a Federal offense and subject to prosecution, by the Department of Justice.
All United States Attorneys and
partment of Justice are at present actively engaged in this campaign and are
anxious to co-operate with the Fair Price Committees and the State authorities.
It was recognized as fundamental
through the normal channels. That there must be a united-effort to secure the
maximum production from the farm,
must be economy of consumption. That there must be care exercised in pur
chasing commodities. The widest publicity of'the progress of the campaign is
important. '
It is believed that the high peak
tendency has set in, and that co-operation of ill Federal and State efforts will
bring about a gradual return to a normal Basis and enable us t- avoid tne
w-nnomie nerils that now confront the countant J '.
The canning season has been in full Uast ibr several weeks. The campaign
to reduce cost of living has enabled the people to get sngar at 11 cents. The
price is down to 11 cents and must stay there. Those who do not comply with
these prices, those who hoard, will be prosecuted.
The price of other food products and wearing apparel must be reduced and
kept down.
In some cases it is the fault of the retailer that necessaries cost too much;
in others, the fault is with the jobber, the middleman.
Respectfully,
WM. C. HAMMER,
United States Attorney.
