PARIS, Nov. 8—The French cabine
has prepared a bill authorizing th<
mayors and prefects of all the de
partments and communities to fix tin
maximum prices at which the neces
sities of life could be sold. Then
have been many complaints of tin
merchants taking advantage of thi
war conditions to charge extort ionati
prices for food and clothing, and thi
present move is an effort to restrali
prices within the reach of the com
mon people.
