Total in Cold Storage in iowa is Muoh
Less Than Was Expected, Unit
Ell States Food Admins
tration Finds.
A STATE INVESTIGATION
IT Develops That Packers and Dealers
are Not Profiteerins In These
Things in Hswkeye
State.


Not long ago, KeoRrK, by census
figures, was the largest egg market
IN the middle west and stood high in
rank In the United States. Figures
today are not available to make sx-
TACT comparisons.
But the food ADMINISTRATION has
demonstrated that Keolluk dealers and
packers are not profteers IN eggs.
All such were suspected of storing
eggs and putting butter in cold stor-
age last summer at forty-two cents
and selling 1t at near eighty cents
this winter.
A federal Investigator made thor
ough investigation, and found that
condition does not obtain in Iowa any
where. There are 4,sT2, 600 eggs and
l51 900 pounds Of butter stored In all
Iowa.
Supply is Surprisingly Low.
1t has been suspected by the public
that cold storage butter and eggs had
been finding their way into the market
at the high prices charged for fresh
butter and eggs.
The Investigation by the inspectors
for the food administration disclosed
that there was nothing to it
The stocks Of butter and eggs which
were put into the plants were racked
by Investigator Ross from the Wash
fng1on headquarters who was sent ont
on the request OF Mr. Deems and his
assistants from the Burlington head
quarters.
The supply Of cold storage food OF
this type was mnch smaller than 1t
was thought existed.
The theory was that owners OF but
ter and eggs who had bought them at
low prices last summer were holding
them in the hope OF rsaping the high
prices for fresh stock, when the food
administration should go ont of bust
ness and were encouraged in the hope
by the rumors that have started Per
iodically that the, administration was
about to quit
NJ such condition exists in Iowa.
at any rate, this investigation dis

brought before United States Com

After Bush was released under
bond Patrolman Thompson was wait
ing on the outside to re-arrest him
for making seditious uterances which
are a violation of the city ordinances.
He put up a 500 bond to appear be.
fore Mayor Coffman this morning.
When the men left the court room
they went directly to Tignor's store
where the fight occurred in the
morning and the court room crowd
followed to keep a line on happen
ings.
1t was suggested that they be
made to wear small flag and also
decorate their wagon with larger
American flags, $50 that they will
remember under what flag they are
living" the crowd said.
AS soon as the suggestion was
made several men went to purchase
the flags and when Bush and his
brother started to the alley where
waited their vehicle, they we're fol-
lowed by about hundred curiosity
seekers.
The crowd placed an American
flag in the whip socket of the We
hicle, nailed another flag on the rear
seat of the conveyance. and pinned
Red Cross buttons and small flags
on the two men.
The flags were pinned on the men
while they were trying to explain
what had happened but they were
not allowed to say anything and the
crowd shouted that they knew what
they had done and needed no new
information. They we're instructed
not to appear in Chickasha again
without wearing the emblems that
had been placed on them or they
might be waited upon again.
With flags flying and with the
crowd gathered on either side of
their vehicle shouting words of ad-
vice and sarcasm the men were es.
