The Food Supply Commission's call upon the ladies of Hongkong to furnish such deila us they can give regarding the recent abnormal rise of foodstalls bere seems a bit farcical, to say the least of it. What cui the ladies tell us beyond the fact that, n certain number of years ugn, they paid so much for the various articles they remice to run our home and that to day they pay donble or treble, the sums they paid- then? We, the men who pay the bills, know this very well. What we want w get at is the men who are angi. beeting the trade golds, Europeus and others, and to find out what regard, other- wise then the ami prere fixes, indeed them to unjustifiably run up prices as they have dene. This is what the public want to know ! It is no use tolling us thac with which we are already usquainted.
