Busy With Food Survey Throughout Pennsylvania State and Federal agents who are assigned to the food survey of the wholesale and retail groceries of the State have about completed their plan and the inquiry will be extended from Blair and Butler counties to a num ber of others in industrial sections. It is not the plan to have the Inspec tions made in contiguous counties, but to jump about the State, follow ing up districts where reports have been made of shortage of food or of other conditions. Later on the large counties will be visited and studies made of the con ditions. The municipal authorities of the cities will be asked to assist in getting the information. The plan adopted is that the grocers will be asked to set down on report blanks which are furnished state ments of the stocks of foods of vari ous kinds they have on hand and also to give information regarding orders given but on which goods have pot been delivered, the idea being to get first-hand data about the amount of food held in the grocery and provision establishments of the State. The in formation will be assembled here and when the reports of the cold storage warehouses, to be made next month, are lu hand the authorities will be able for the first time to tell how much food is held in Pennsylvania. While this food inquiry is going on special attention is being given to the sanitary conditions under which feds are sold.

V} e .} var - Among these is William —• "all, of New York City, a son of the late Senator J. K. P. Hall, of Kldgway, in this State. He is now • ot United States Boys' Working Reserve, connected with the Department of Labor at Washington, and the scope of the work is coun try-wide. Mr. Hall spent a few hours in Harrisburg last night and in a brief interview with a Telegraph repre sentative outlined the purpose and plans of his organization. No more comprehensive movement to conserve the labor of the United States has ever been conceived. It is so eminently practical that many of the most influential business men of the country are co-operating in the work. Mr. Hall was chosen as head of the Boys' Working Reserve be cause of his special litness through long experience as president of the Hoys' Club Federation of the United States and his service in the Belgian Commission with Herbert C. Hoover. He has larga business interests, but these have been, subordinated to the duties which he has assumed at Washington. "There are now 12,000 city boys at work on farms in Now York," said Mr. Hall; "5,000 in New Jersey, 6,000 in Maryland and 75.000 such boys and sons of farmers busy in Wiscon sin. Appeals have come to us for boys for the beet sugar fields of Utah, for the canning sections of Virginia an.d from other sections where the labor shortage or the im mediate necessity has reached the acute stage. "During Labor Day week we are ifolng to make a big drive in Penn sylvania for 25.000. It is not our purpose to disturb the schools. We shall encourage in every way voca tional training—camps will be estab lished for Intensive training of boys for work on the farms so that a central ennip shall be able to supply labor for the territory In which it is located. It is opr plan to co-operate with Y. M. C. A. and other boy leaders. "In the shortage of labor which is coming—which already exists the boys must be the obvious supply. These boys will be paid from S2O to SSO a month and as a further incen tive we are supplying badges which hear the United States coat of arms— service stripes will be given from year to year. "This agricultural army which will supplement the other forces that are being mobilized for industrial and ireneral business purposes, will bring in.to active service some millions of helpers throughout the country. In New York there are 43,000 less farm helpers than a year ago at this time. The exodius from farms to other in dustries during the last year has been 17 per cent. "We have in the United States about six ml H ion boys between the aces' of 16 and 21 and 2,000,000 are idle or go into unproductive employ ment. At first the farmers were op nosed to our work; now they are call in" for help. "The Federal government has es tablished the Boys' Working Reserve so that there may be a unification of all efforts. Because all of the United States is at wiar as a nation it is imperative that any mobilizing of labor to meet the war emergency shall be a co-ordinate effort so that the labor may be used at the point where it is most vitally needed. It is .Tlso highly Important that we have "niform standards of employment. We are building for a —<r or" -~-rs. The factories and other industries have steadily drained the fields of labor until there must be some organized effort to supply the deficit. While it is the intention of the Re serve to enroll for industry, as well as agriculture, the most important prohlem before us at the present time is thnt of supplying boys to the farm."

DETERMINED TO BRING DOWN PRICE OF COAL Government Will Take Over Mines if Necessary to Pro tect Consumer Washington. Aug. 2 5.—"A1l of the machinery of government and the power conferred by the food act will be employed to give cheaper coal to the consumer and the government." Emerging from a conference room with his cost and vest oft and his sleeves rolled up, Dr. Harry A. Gar field, the newly appoiVed coal dic tator, made this emphatic announce ment when he was informed that certnin retailers throughout the United States had declared their in tention of keeping coal prices at their present high level. Dr. Garfield made it clear that if necessary to carry through the bene fits to the consumer the government would take over the mines. He warned the public that the govern ment would not have its purpose thwarted on any technical grounds. "This much you may be certain of —coal prices are going to be lower to the consumer," Dr. Garfield added. "As soon as I finish up my work as a member of the wheat price fixing committee I will be ready to put into effect the authority given to attain that end." Plans for Price Fixing These are the concrete plans which Dr. Garfield already has decided to put into effect with the least possible delay: First. A fixed price that retailers may charge the consumers on an thracite as well as bituminous coal. Second. Elimination of the pres ent practice of duplicating rail hauls by selling Pennsylvania coal in Indi ana and Indiana coal in Pennsyl vania. Third. Cancellation of contracts for coal at higher prices than those fixed by the dministration in accord ance with the provisions of the coal and fuel bill. Because of the seriousness of the announcement that plans were being made by mine operators, wholesalers, jobbers and retailers to prevent the Intended saving on coal to consum ers, Dr. Garfield was called from his conference with the experts on wheat X 3 f RELIABLE > ~vjJSEP AUTOSx N\ °\ THE CHAIN THAT CONNECTS f" all that's desirable in Used Cars.

"Excessive pr6fits are not to b® given under the cloak of lon* hauls or any other guise," Dr. Garfield said. "We intend to fix the prices that the retailer may charge. Just as we have fixed the price that the mine operator and the Jobber may get." Dr. Garfield took pains to explain that the government has guarded against Jobbers pyramiding profits by allowing a large number to handle the same shipments. He called at tention to the fact that the Presi dent's proclamation allows the Job ber a profit of only 20 cents a ton on anthracite, no matter whether one or ten handle It. If ten Jobbers han dled the same shipment they would only get on an average of 2 cents a ton. Ijoiir Hauls to Bo Eliminated Dr. Garfield said that the present practice of hauling coal long dis tances from one mine field to be sold in another Is to be wiped out. Ter ritory is to be served by the mines nearest at hand instead of those at.' great distances. The Federal Trade Commission has found through its investigation that frequently coal is shipped 400 miles farther than nec essary In order to give the railroads the -advantage of tho profits from the long shipment. Officials of the trade commission say that at the present time soft coal is being shipped from Pennsylvania to Indiana, and the same kind of coal Is being shipped from Indiana mines back to Pennsylvania. "Through Judge Lovett." said Dr. Garfield, "we Intend to correct that situation under the authority given to designate pri ority shipments. Undoubtedly it will be necessary to designate which shall serve particular territory."
