Convention Adopts Resolution on Mill Registration
County Food Administrator Joe C bell Davin reports a State County Food Administrators meeting in Columbia adopted a resolution to urge registration of millers with a U S Food Commissioner or County Food Commissioner.

The plan aims to align with federal wishes, though not yet enacted. Other rulings limit flour profits for wholesale and retail merchants and cap retailer sugar markups, with reminders to avoid overpricing.
