Announce
Three

Bread
Increase
:
Effective
Monday
Morning
Prince
Rupert's
collective
pocketbook
will
receive
another
shock
on
Monday.
Operators
of
the
city's
three
bakeries
announced
this
morning
that
the
retail
price
of
bread
will
advance
at
the
first
of
the
week
from
10
cents
to
13
cents
a
loaf.
Increased
cost
of
ingredients
following
the
removal
by
the
federal
government
of
its
subsidy
on
flour
was
given
as
the
reason
for
the
boost
which
some
quarters
had
predicted,
would
not
come
for
at
least
another
week.
Prince
Rupert
is
believed
to
be
the
last
city
in
Canada
to
follow
the
trend
which
started
immediately
after
the
subsidy
was
dropped
a
week
ago.
Stocks
of
flour
in
the
.city,
bought
at
the
subsidized
price
were
not
large
enough,
however,
to
allow
the
10-cent
loaf
to
continue
in
Prince
Rupert
beyond
Monday.
Wholesale
price
of
bread
