WHEN EGGS COME REAL HIGH
Returned Diplomat Declares Hen
Fruit Cost $12-s0 Each in
City Of Mexico.

It Is a weird tale Of finance and
food costs which has been brought to
St. Louis by Henry Herschkowitz.
formerly translator at the United
States embassy, City Of Mexico.
Herschkowftz said he was forced to
leave Mexico by II. G. L.
Articles OF food In the Mexican cap
ital have different prices, according to
the kind Of money paid for them An
egg. for example. only costs 10 cents in
silver money. But In Mexican paper
money the same egg will cost 25 pesos.
The peso for many years has been
considered worth 30 cents in United
States money thus bringing the egg
price to $3.50. But the money chang
ers declare the value Of the peso has
deprecated to one-q uarter OF Il cent.
It is the same with butter. A pound
Of medium quality butter can be pur-
chased In the City of Mexico for only
$1.25 United States money. 1t will
cost $3.50 in Mexican silver and 62S
pesos In paper money.
Even In the United States coin the
price Of shoes has doubled. while corn
70 $50 per cent higher than In 1913.
and charcoal Is $50 per cent higher.
Charcoal IL universally used for cook
ing.
According to Herschkowitz. there Is
no police protection In the City OF
Mexico Instead. martial law prevails.
but 1t does not prevent the boldcr
thieves from plying their trade, nl-
though detection means not a trial.
