New York, Nov. 1.-Arthur Wil-
liams, national food administrator forE
New York' City, and John Mitchell,
head of the State Food commission,<
have co-operated in keeping down+
food profits. In this effort they have
received co-operation from the cityi
administration and of the New York
food distributors, representing 50,-,
000 handlers of foodstuffs and res-
taurant hotel men.
The officers obtained a promise
from the food handlers to hold pro-
fits down to pre-war basis, and have
undertaken the milk problem, obtain-
ing from President Cooper of the
dairymen's league, a promise to lay
before that organization a proposi-
tion that the order raising milk prices
on the first of the month be canceled.
Two conferences have been held.
Many prominent men of New York
City, including representatives from
food handlers, were present.
Established Compaint Bureau
The distributors' association, repre-
sented by Carl W. Kimball, has ask-
ed the authorities to establish a co-
operative information and complaint
bureau. The association points out
that consumers read constantly about
hoarders, food gamblers, and trusts,
and they attribute raises in prices to
some of these reasons, and so there is
antagonism to the middlemen. Such
a bureau as they propose would give
prices, and also the reasons why
prices on certain foods are high.
Mr. Hoover, he said, has arranged for
the shipment to New York City of two
or three varieties of fish from south-
ern waters that will be new to the
New York consumer. Shark will be
one of these varieties, it is said, and
Mr. Hoover wants to see New York
eating more fish than ever before.
Do Not Order Bacon For Meals
Another thing Mr. Williams is plan-
ning to have printed on all menus:
"Please do not order bacon, as a sol-
dier may have to go without it.'
New York City has already taken
up the work of co-operation between
departments in food conservation,
prices, and protection. The police
department has increased its activity
to see that food regulations of the
health department are carried out.
The food division of the health depart-
ment is prepared for prosecution of
those who violate the law. The li-
cense department will co-operate with
both the other departments, and it is
promised that those who conduct
their business along unsanitary lines
will find it difficult to obtain a license
to continue business.
The price of sugar in New York
City will be, or ought to be, nine and
one-half cents a pound when sold in
bulk and 10 cents when sold in pack-
age. These prices were agreed upon
last week at a conference of the na-
tional, state, and city food commis-
sioners and the sugar men. If there
are violaters of the agreement they
will be reported to Washington to be
dealt with by the national food admin-
istrator.
FRIENDSHIP FUND CAMPAIGN
BEGINS SATURDAY MORNING
Social functions are being restrict-
ed this year at nearly all universities
and colleges, particularly in the West
and Middle West, according to Ac-
counts in the college newspapers.
Formal affairs have already been
abolished at some schools, and at oth-
ers the advisability of eliminating
them entirely is being considered.
Princeton has decided to cut ex-
penses at its Prom, charging for tick-
ets only what the affair will actually
cost, and to conduct a Red Cross tea
in connection with it.
At the University of Wisconsin there
was a fight to have the Junior Prom
abolished, but supporters of the dance,
succeeded in saving it in an extreme-
ly modified form. However, there will
be no flowers , taxicabs, or other side
expenses.
The Pan-Hellenic council at Indiana
university! in a meeting recently
passed a resolution abolishing flow-
ers, favors, and taxicabs, and advo-
cating the cheapest possible programs,
refreshments and decorations, at
campus dances. Orchestras of more
than five pieces are prohibited.
Dr. Strong, chancellor of the Uni-
versity of Kansas, is conducting a
campaign there to do away with for-
mals completely.
At the University of Nebraska the
faculty is waging war on expensive
and formal social affairs. The so-
rorities are fighting to save the func-
tions.
VARIETY OF OPINION GIVEN
REGARDING J. HOP THIS YEAR
(Continued from Page One)
ed with this year. However, he feels
that the students should abandon it on
their own initiative. He believed it
right that the annual function be done
away with at this time when money
should not be needlessly expended.
Prof. H. C. Adams stated, "Since
this is wartimes, expenses should be
cut down, but conditions should be
kept as near normal as possible. Prof.
J. A. C. Hildner was of the same opin-
ion.
Law School Against Party
Prof. Gordon Stoner states what he
believes to be the concensus of opinion
in the Law school faculty, "A Junior
hop this year would be very much out
of place. A number of people are now
depriving themselves of even the nec-
essities of life, while we who have
more could easily do without the
Junior hop. I do not believe that the
Junior hop should be permanently
abandoned. Such a course would not
be right, for some amount of diver-
sion is necessary. What I do believe
is, that it should be abolished for the
present time only. One of the strong-
est arguments in favor of this conten-
tion is, that there is bound to be riv-
alry among the fraternities to see
which one can give the most elaborate
house party. This is no time for such
a waste of money."

Mass Meeting, Nov. 14
President H. B. Hutchins will pre-
side at the mass meeting, Nov. 14, to
boost the subscription. Dr. M. S. Rice,
pastor of the Woodward Avenue Meth-
odist church of Detroit, who has been
four years among the soldiers in Eu-
rope will speak. Rev. Lloyd Douglas
of Ann Arbor, national chairman of the
Students' Friendship war fund, will
also givean address. Ef orts are being
made by the committee to have some
Michigan men from Camp Custer pre-
sent the soldiers' view of the campaign
at the session.
Plans for the canvass sweep'of the
campus will be announced later.
The $35,000,000 will be expended
among American and foreign soldiers
at the rate of $10 for Americans and
$1.50 for the soldiers of other nation-
alities. The Y. M. C. A., under the
direction of Conrad Hoffman, is the
only accredited . and acknowledged
foreign institution in Germany at the
present time. This is one of the fields
in which some of the Friendship funds
will be expended to alleviate the hor-
rors of "shadow" soup and other Ger-
man innovations in prison camps.

ness."
Miss Agnes Wells, social director of
Newberry residence, states that the
girls go to bed earlier and get up-ear-
lier, and that there has been less sick-
ness this year than ever before.
Reports from the registrar's office
would seem to deny the statement
that the girlq are not in favor of early
classes. The 7:30 classes are as pop-
ular as any others and no one, so far
as could be learned, has requested to
be transferred to a section meeting
later in the day.
