creased to a fcfettfttog osteal in the pastten years Tfaa cro3 Are not looal butreach out to the great producing and dis-

tributing cantors at the countrylegislation should bs enacted by Con-

gress regulating cold storage of foodproducts limiting tho porlods of the stor-

age of particular classes of products andpossibly restricting the operations of coldstorage companies to a purely warehousebusiness

These are the findings of tho special

committee appointed by tho Chamber ofCommerce to investigate the subject andsubmit a report to tho Chamber Thecommittee made a thorough investiga-tion into tho facts of the Increased costof living In whloh It had tho willing cooperation of wholesale and retail mer-

chants and distributers of produce inthis city It was found that the cost ofliving has Increased from 36 to 75 percent in ten years The inquiry was directed to the cost of food clothing shelter and fuel

Price Set at Remote PointsIt was discovered for example that the

prices for butter were set by distributersin Elgin Ill that the price of meatswere established by the conditions of thecattle market in Jersey City the price ofeggs Is also set by trade associations elsewhere and so the causes were found tocenter at remote points from the localmarkets These prices are so set becausethe points mentioned and others are thegreat distributing points for particularproducts and commodities

by the subcommittee to the fullcommittee on law and legislation andwas approved by that body It willsubmitted later to the Chamber for itsaction
