 To End Says King
Agricultural Commissioner Confident of New Deal for
 POultrymen After Visit With La Guardia

Hartford, Jan 1S-Connecticut poultrvr1en are to receive a new deal and a square deal on the New York city live poultry market, in the opinion of Commissioner of Ag- riculture Olcott k. King, who has just returned from the third an- nual meeting of the Northeastern Poultry Producers Council held in New York.
 Commissioner King was appoint ed chairman of a committee from the council to wait upon Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York city and present evidence to show that racketeers and racke- teering practices as carired on in New York city are costing the poul- trymen of the northeast 8 small fortune each year.
 Commissioner King, in talking with Mayor La Guardia, commend ed him for his pledge to wipe out racketeering and urged him to viz orously prosecute his campaign against poultry racketeers as a means of saving thousands of dol lars which the poultrymen could i'll afford to lose.
 "The racketeers in New York city, through their vicious and par asitical activities, are not only causing Connecticut poultrymen to lose thousands of dollars each year but are also causing consumers to pay higher prices for poultry meat" Isaid Commissioner King.
 "Connecticut is vitally interested in the New York city poultry situa- ton, for the racketeers, through their strong arm tactics and meth ods of intimidation, have made it practically impossible for Connecti- cut poultrymen to do business in the city without paying exorbitant cash tributes in exchange foy al- , legged services.
 After my visit with Mayor La Guardia I am firmly convinced" continued the commissioner, "that he is sincere in his efforts to clean up racketeering in New York city. However, he made 1t perfectly clear that the thing he wanted most of all was concrete evidence which would make convictions possible. "I hope every poultryman in Conencticut and the remainder of the thirteen northeastern states will come forward with these facts

effort which should be appreciated by every poultryman even though it is not customary for him to sell birds in New York. The racketeers affect us in Connecticut in several different ways, directly and indi- rectly. One of the indirect ways considered perhaps least of all hap pened here this past fall which af- fected every Connecticut poultry man. It had to do with a New York live poultry dealer who came up here and bought birds in good faith and then was prevented from taking them to his store unless he elected to pay the racketeering charges or be hauled into court.
 Mayor La Guardia showed no surprise when we presented our complaint about poultry racketeer- ing. In fact, his remarks indicated that he Is quite familiar with the
