For the purpose of finding out
Just where the food stores ot
Fairmont stand at a time when
the government is making an effort
to control the price of food
stuffs The West Virginian has an
investigation made. It was a
careful, painstaking investigation
running over a period long
enough to get a line on the mer

employed In making It. What
was discovered la being set forth
in a series ot articles the first
one ot which was printed yesterday.
Today we have the second
installment as follows:
When prices sefem unfairly high in
a city as they do lust now in the city
ot Fairmont, It is not a bad idea to
glance at prices in other cities tor
the same article or article ot the
same standard. Papers publish constantly
prices on groceries and meats
and it Is no difficult matter to compare
those prices with the prices
asked in Fairmont.

C<ir Supply Big Topic at the
Meeting Held Yesterday.
The Central West Virginia Coal Operator's
Association, which is one of
several organizations of the kind in tbel
state, held a meeting at the Chamber,
of Commerce Monday afternoon to act'
on the car shortage which has so stir-j
red the operators and miners of the
Fairmont-C.lnrkshiirfr roHnn In !? *!
few months. The car supply was deem,
ed so much more Important that other;
propositions before the organization;
that it received the bulk of the time. ,
The meeting was called to order by
C. F. Jenkins, the president with D.
It. Lawson, secretary' in his place. J.
H. Callahan of Clarksburg, A. C. Xeeson
of Worthington and E Drannen of
Elkins, were most prominent on the
floor in a series of talks which made
it evident that the coal operators have
about lost patience.
A telegram received from J. M. Da-j
vis, vice president of the Baltimore;
and Ohio railroad, was read it attempted
to show that the Monongah di
vision of the B. and O. had received;
more than its share of cars by including
nil assigned and privately owned,
cars, while it is held here that thai
shortage consists of B, aqd 0, cars ap-;
plicable to percentage. This samel
statement was evidently presented bye
the Baltimore and Ohio to the Inter-]
state Commerce commission. There
was considerable discussion on- the
floor regarding the proposition. Before
taking final steps those present decided
to again ask President Willard of
the B. & O. for a conference, pointing
out that it would prevent more drastic
action being taken by legal means.The
association is very much wrought up
over the way B. & 0. officials have
misrepresented to the Interstate Commission
the method of distributing its
cars. Unless the B. & O. corrects its I
method immediately the association is I
considering legal recourse in the shape
ri mandamus proceedings to compel a
proper distribution or an injunction
prohibiting the B. & O. from further
discrimination
