Will Increase Food Prices, Says

CHEERFUL LITTLE JNVALlDS ON HOSPITAL'S ROOF IN SUMMER TIME
PRODUCE MEN DENY RISE,
A mixed chorus of condemnation and '
prnlne today greeted the new cold Mor
age net, which was signed yesterday by I
Governor Sproul to aupcraede the net i
of 1013, resulntlng ,thc operation of
cold storage wnreliousci.
Housewives believe the Inw will In
erense the price of food, according to
Mrs. Wllllnm.ltr Dorr, president of the
locnl branch of the Housewives' League,
while producers contend that It will re
sult In exactly the opposite, according
to John S. Morris, presidAt of the
Philadelphia Produce Kxchange. Di
rector of Supplies MncLaughlin was
neutral, saying that ho was, not suffi
ciently familiar with the provision of I
the net to express nn opinion.
"The new law, by extending the time
limit for food storage, will encourage,
speculators to withhojd food from the
market and tend to increase the prices,"
snld Mrs. Derr, who was prominent in
opposing the passnjc of the net in the
Legislature. "I still believe it will tend
to increase prices. I wish some one
could convince me otherwise."
"A decrease in prices will be encour
nged by the act," said Mr. Morris, who
supported the measure. "Its principal
feature, extension of the time limit for
storage on a henson-to-scason basis,
will assure a sufficient supply of food
here at ull times. Philadelphia Is short
of cold storage facilities, and the law
will help the industry to expand."
The new law establishes n twelve I
months' cold storage limit for food of
nil kinds. The old law had various
periods for meats, eggs, butter nnd
other foods. Quarterly reports nnd n
?."0 license fee nre required. Prohibi
tion of the storage or sale of unwhole
some food is contained in the net, ns
well as requirement that every open
container or wrapper of foods In cold
storage must be rctmarked "cold stor
age goods. "i The penalties nre ohnnged,
the new limits being ?200 nnd .$300,
according to the offense, with provision
for jail sentence.
The Governor also approved the bill
providing that second-class cities shnll
hnve five assessors nnd an additional one'
for each 75,000 inhabitants over 200,
000. Another bill signed amends the schools
code so that all fourth-class districts
shall Include the examination of the
teeth of pupils ns well ns sight, hear
ing nnd other possihjc defects.

STAItT THIS STORY TODAY
fTlilE two women asked innumerable
questions. 'They looked about the
living room nnd their conversation ran
something like this, although it wns
conducted in nn undertone.
Said the older vtoman, "Of course
you must make allowances. Your own
furniture will look so different."
"I know thnt," said the girl In a
sclt-satistird way, "but the rooms arc
very small."
"The dining room Isn't -so bad."
"nut my furniture won't show up in
It nil, all my lovely mahogany.N This
furniture fits In with the rest of the
apartment," nnd then the girl flung a
hB6ty glance over her shoulder nnd low
ered her voice as she said something
else. Ruth's checks burned, but there
was nothing she could do.
"The bath is very tmall," said the
girl who was exploring, "and the closet
room is nbominnblc." '
"The kitchen Is splendid, though,
Relic, come nnd sec." called the older
woman, who was evidently the mother.
"Oh, the kitchen. I'd rather have
the kitchen small and the living room a
decent size. The way they build these
cheap npnrtmcnts these dnys is simply
a crime."
The girl lind paused before th,c closed
door of the bedroom nnd now looked nt
Ruth Inquiringly.
"Is it nil right for me to go in here?"
she queried.
Ruth interposed, with "Just a mo
ment," nnd opened the door to sec if
Alice had made any effort to dress. Khe
had thrown on some clothes in a half
dejected way nnd Ruth snw that she
had been crying again. That morning's
mail had not brought any letter from
Uert.
The two strangers looked at Alice
curiously as 'they pushed into the bed
room, and she walked past them Into
the living room where Ruth joined her.
Ruth was inordlnate nnnoyed at
Alice. It seemed as If she would go
mad if she couldn't put an end to long
faces and tears and the utter sordid
ness of n monotonous existence.
Alice looked up at her and saw some
thing of what was going on in Ruth's
mind.
"You're disgusted with me, aren't
you?" she said.
"I do think you are giving wny to
yourself horribly, Alice. You used to

"Where do you come from, Wil

little aspirant sound that goes with his
talking.
"I shouldn't be surprixed." said the
doctor. "They come from every pos

"I'll just like to hec what jou woujd

Alice defended.
"Perhaps I wouldn't do nny different
ly," snld Ruth wenrily. Her head
ached, and she felt mentally disgusted
with everjthing. SJu vas sick with
everything, nothing ever went right. If
only Alice would decide to do some
thing one way or another and would
leave her alone to think matters out. it
might help.
The two women were coming back
now. They stopped in the doorway of
the living room and gave a last casual
glanco nround. Ruth had to exert au
effort to keep fiom slamming the door
as she saw them out. 0
These were the kind of people she
belonged with, and the irony of 'it was
that even they could afford to pay more
to live than she and Scott could. The

"If only mother and father were

"Then jou'd go oer there and do the

"Hut what can I do? I've written
to him, and he doesn't answer. There's
just one thing for me to beliee and
