What reading level is Food Questions Answered book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
284. Do we export potatoes?
Not to any extent.
285. Why not?
They are too bulky unless dried.
PRICES.
286. Did food prices rise when we entered the war?
Yes; between April 6 and the 17th of May, 1917, when Mr. Hoover was asked to undertake the work of Food Ad- ministrator, wholesale prices rose 17 per cent on staple foods.
287. Did they continue to rise?
On the average the apex was reached by the 17th of May, 1917, and since then there has been a slight decline.
288. Can the Food Administration... fix prices?
No; that power or its delegation lies with Congress.
289. Is the primary object of food control to lower prices?
No; it is to secure sufficient food for us and the Allies. Increased production is absolutely essential for this purpose and this can not be obtained with lowered prices. The Food Administration endeavors to make the price yield only a fair profit to the producer, so that he makes no fictitious profits out of the consumer. To this end speculation and resales within the trade and superfluous middlemen's profits are for- bidden.
