Prices Stay High Despite Mixed Food Costs
Department of Labor and Bureau of Labor Statistics report retail food prices peaked in December 1918 with slight declines in January and February 1919, then rising in March and April. In April 1919, 22 food items cost 18 percent above April 1918 and 85 percent above April 1913. Julius Rosenwald of Sears Roebuck & Co. expects little drop in life necessities price levels, apart from artificial reductions. John J. Arnold of the First National Bank of Chicago shares a similar view on prewar price levels remaining unlikely.
