[BRIDE BISCUITS j
j:
ANCHOKAOE, Sept. 20. — "Brides’
biscuits" are in demand in Anchorage
—those biscuits either so insuffi
ciently cooked that they stick to the
| plaster when thrown at the ceiling, or
so overdone that they make a noise
like a logger's hobnailed boot when
dropped on the floor. The culinary ef
forts of newly-married sweet young;
things are wanted by merchants and !
consumers to hurl at a fair-price com- j
mlttee that has essayed to fix quo- j
tations on flour and a number of j
other staple articles of food.
I
The committee, which Is comprised
of well-intentioned citizens equally
! representative of sellers and buyers,
has aroused the hostility of dealers i
because It did not increase and of con- !
sumers because it did not decrease the
I figure on every sort of edible mer- ]
; chandise. The committee raised sugar
■ and oatmeal 1 cent a pound and
canned milk about 2 cents a can. It
lowered dried fruits a few cents a
pound. It made no changes in other
articles. j
The matter of fixing food prices in
Anchorage was first given considera
tion a few months ago, when negotia
tions were pending between the Alas-!
Kan engineering commission ami ns
employes relative to advances in
; wages. The employes contended that
Anchorage merchants wen* charging
unreasonably high tor foodstuffs and
asked the commission to reestablish
the commissary, which was started
three years ago at the time of the
beginning of railroad construction, but
which was discontinued about a year
ago The commissary had sold goods
fo commission employes for wholesale
prices plus 10 per cent
To the request for the re-estaldish
iiiri)t of the commissary vigorous ob
jection was offered by Anchorage mer
chants. They explained their prices
! v (•••«' r< a; oni'hle and declared that if
the commissary were re-established
its policy of buying in large quantities
and selling for wholesale prices, plus
a percentage just sufficiently high to
defray the cost of operation, would
j ut tin* stores out of business.
When the suggestion of a fair-price
list was made by the commission the
merchants and employes alike in-1
i dorsed the idea.
The list will he revised weekly In
this fact lies the hope of dealers for
advances and of consumers for re
ductions in the immediate future. The 1
fair-price committee in the meantime |
irritates dealers by insisting that its ,
list of quotations is based on whole
sale cost, expense of doing business
and an equitable retail profit, and ^
annoys consumers by inviting all the ;
disgruntled among them to Join the
committee and help, without any re- j
numeration, in the task of determin
ing quotations.

i ST. MICHAEL, Alaska, Aug 1 —(by
