CORNER" ON EGG
MARKET ALLEGED
Chicago Official Sees Effort
to Boost Price to ST a
Dozen by "Shortage."
BY the Associated Press.

the Associated PresS.
CHICAGO, November 14.-Joseph
Rushkewicz, secretary of the city
councils high cost committee, charges
that Chicago dealers are attempting
to corner the egg market and create
an artificial shortage that will boost
prices to 81 dozen. He urges
householders to refrain from using
eggs.
Eggs are selling at 80 cents a
dozen in Chicago, despite storage
houses bulging with 100000 cases,
or more than 30,O0O,000 dozen, he
said.
Seven dealers, alleged TO have COM
bined, expect to make s9,O0O,000 be-
fore Christmas with dollar eggs"
according to Ray Lane, former at
torney for the committee
With a daily consumption of 10 900
cases. there now is enough on hand
to do for the next four months with
out any receipts from the farmers"
says Mr.. Rushkewicz. THE eggs
now on sale were placed in storage
last spring at from 90 TO 25 cents a
dozen. Spectators are buying up
shipments as fast as they arrive and
placing them in storage 10 create a
shortage"
Dealers are charged with moon
shining" eggs, selling as strictly
fresh" eggs that have been in storage
since spring. In order to prevent
discovery of egg caches dealers
identify the eggs on warehouse re-
ceipts as potatoes" the committee
charges.
The only weapon the food hoarder
fears is the housewives boycott, ac-
cording to Mr.. RushkewicZ, who
promises that a weeks general alb
stinence from the use of eggs would
compel release of thousands of doz-
ems of eggs now held in storage. with
a resultant price decline.
