IN FAVOR OF COLD STORAGE
Poultry nnd Eggs IL Properly Handled

WASHINGTON. Dectmber 1a.-Dr.
Mary r. Pennington. of the chemistry
bureau. at the Congressional hearing

age. said exhaustive Investigation and
experiments disclosed that poultry and
eggs, II properly handled, could be
kept In cold storage long enough to
overcome seasonablc scarcity of sup
ply without any deterioration of their
food value. She showed comparisons
Of poultry marketed fresh. and after

the conclusion that with the same
handling both would be equally valu-
able for food.
DIR. Pennington under questioning de-
clared that in her Investigations OF

ing to indicate that cold storage facil-
tits were used to manipulate food
prices.
