The first move in this direction Is IN
New England where the Boston Maine

Because of this, the traffic experts or

though the embargo on foreign potatoes
and the heavy receipts OF foreign eggs
have been disturbing factors. The Amerl-
can potato crop is short. as is the Ameri-

prices. while imports Of eggs are having
