were from this section. The. captain
was in charge of the depot division at

Washington, Mar 24. Lower, food
prices in the "relatively near future"
were predicted today by George N.
Peek, chairman of the industrial board
now driving to bring down war prices
in all commodities. After a conference
with food administration officials Peek
made this statement:
'There is every reason to expect
lower food prices
future. This view,
charge of the affairs of the food admin
istration will share."
Peek based his predictions on lower
food prices, he said, on tho tho possi
bility of an enormous wheat crop this
year and the fact that the govern
ment, under the wheat guarantee bill
has ample authorities to guarantee the
$2.26 wheat price and then sell the
wheat or the flour at a loss to bring
down food prices.
Government To Take Action.
Peek was of the opinion that some
action of this kind will be taken by
the eovernment.
Just how the provisions of the wheat
guarantee bill will be carried out ;s
now up to President Wilson, it was
stated.
Peek believes that if the price of
flour or wheat to the public can be
brought down despite the fact thaVtho
farmer receives $2.26 a bushel, prac-i
tically all other food prices will drop.
'Tho phrasing of the grain bill1'
Peek pointed out. ' clearly indicates
that the Ono billion dollar appropriation
was made by congress, not only to make
pood the $2 26 guarantee to the far
mers but to enable the government to
sell wheat and flour at the guaranteed
prices , or such other prices and on
such terms or conditions as may bo
necessary to carry out tho purposes'
c-f tho act 'and to enable the people of
tho United States to purchase wheat
products at a reasonable cost.'
This phrasing, Peek explained, mado
the erounds for any action by tho gov
ernment to subsidize wheat or flour so
that it may be sold to the public at
lower prices than it actually costs.
