for this purpose at 347 Washington

ing of the sounty chairmen for Sep
tember It snd 17. Mrs. A- F. Baldwin,
chairman of the women's committee of
the Twelfth Federal Reserve district,
will corns from San Francisco to ad
dress the meeting.
Mr. Baldwin was in Portland Just he-
fore the third loan and both she and
Mrs. Evans attended ths National con

In spits of an Increase In ths cost of
production claimed to be 60 per cent,
prices for the 191$ Alaska salmon pack
will be the same as last year, if the
recommendations of a special commit
tee of Food Administration men are
followed by the National Admlnlstra
tion.
Following a meeting of the commit
tee in Portland yesterday the follow
ing prices for each case (four dozen
cans) at Pacific Coast points were eug
gested in a telegram to Herbert Hoo
ver: Reds $9.40. medium reds and
kings $9. Dinks $$.60. chums $6.40.
Figures on the estimated cost oi
production were obtained by the com
mittee from answers to questionnaires
sent to packers by the Food Adminis
tration. About 90 per cent of the in
dustry responded.
Increases in Cost Shown.
Increases in the cost of every Item
entering Into the cost were shown.
Prices fixed last Spring by the Food
Administration on the fish represented
from 60 to 100 per cent increase over
1917. Varying increases were shown
in prices of tin cans, factory labor,
transportation, fuel and labels, accord
ing to reports of packers.
The Alaska pack represents from 75
to SO per cent of the entire Pacific
Coast pack of about 10,000.000 cases.
For this reason prices received by
Alaska packers determine in general
prices for other packers. Owing to a
difference in quality, however, higher
prices are obtained for certain packs.
Excessive profits said to have been
made by the packers under the competi
tive system of previous years is given
as the reason for the relatively lower
prices. Varying costs, due to a dif
ference in conditions and runs were
not considered in fixing the prices,
Uniform Price Recommended,
The committee recommended that the
same prices be .allowed the packers for
the product taken by the Government
and by the civilian trade. The Govern
ment will purchase about two-thirds of
the total Alaska pack, according to
reliable advices.
Because of the drastic prices recom
mended, it is likely that the Food Ad
ministration will not pass on the mat
ter until the reports of the canners
can be scanned. The reports will be
sent today, according to Food Admin
istrator Ayer.
The following were members of the
committee which met yesterday:
Charles Hebberd, Food Administrator
for Washington; H. C. 8trong. repre
senting the Alaskan Food Administra
tor; W. S. Ayer, Food Administrator for
Oregon; Frank Warren, representing
the canned goods section of the Na
tional Food Administration; and E. B.
Demlng of the Bureau of Co-ordination
of Purchases of the Food Administra
tion at Washington.
