Orders Study Into Egg Price Methods WASHINGTON <UPt»— A enngrvsatanal study wa* ordered toda y into method* used to **t th* price* farmer* get for egg* Th* adton stemmed from ramplaint* from producer* that they ' ar* bring bankrupted by ' ktw l>ric** which have prevailed for many month* Farmer* on ar average received les* forthe 1 / ■ egg* last month than in any wtoe vary in the past IS year*. Chairman l-eeter R Johnson D-Wls.l announced that hi* Hou** agriculture subcommittee would bold a week-of public hearng* starting Feb » on the marketing and pricing of egg*. Some poultrymen have complained to member* of Congress. Johnson said, the "egg marketing and pricing »y«tem» ar* responsible for ■ part of their price problem*. They tell us that supply and demand factor* do Dot always determine price.” Some Agriculture Department official* who feel that currently depressed price level can be explained by supply-demand factor? have concluded that changes in the pattern of egg marketing* in recent years have resulted in an "antiquated” marketing system. Relatively few eggs are traded now on the New York Mercantile Exchange But the prices quoted there have been used as the basis for setting producer prices covering a large volume of eggs in many areas. Most eggs now bypass terminal markets and whole salers in moving from farmer to consumer. Johnson said he hoped that department officials and producer representatives would present the subcommittee "constructive sug gestions for improvements in the egg pricing system.”

Wi should see that all citizens share the cost of local government. "As it is, the property ownei is penalized while those who have no property are enabled to avoid the responsibility of supporting local schools, hospitals, police and fire departments. “However, Ind ia n a citizens should be alerted to the subtle but persistent campaign of some groups who are trying to shift the cost of certain city governments onto the state tex rates. “If the state is compelled to increase its distributions to. the municipalities, state tax rates will go up.” Willshire Driver Fined On Charge Larry Caffee of Willshire. 0., was fined SSO and costs for unsafe operation of a motor vehicle by the municipal court of Van Wert,, 0., i following his arrest by the Ohio I state highway patrol.
