Poultry Black Market
Cuts Army Supplies
Producers Head Asks
Freedom From OPA
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. April 30.-Robert F.
Thurrell, president of the North
eastern Poultry Producers Council
of East Wolfboro. N. H., said today
the black market in poultry has
been so vicious the last three
months that the United States
Army has not been able to buy
poultry"
Mr.. Thurrell testified at a hear
ing by a Republican House sub
committee on food, presided over
by Representative Andersen, Re-
publican. of Minnesota.
If the industry is left unham-
pered it will give the country all
the poultry it can eat" Mr. Thur
rell testified. urging that the present
ceilings and regulations be ended
Estimating that IS per cent of all
poultry was going into the black
market, Mr.. Thurrell asked that the
industry be allowed to operate under
producers price.
If eggs get into a black market,
the poultry black market will seem
like piker" by comparison, he said.
The bootleggers of the prohibition
era ''or their cousins were in con-
troll of Nation wide black market,
Mr.. Thurrell declared, adding. ''the
sum total experience of the top
flight OPA poultry men equals ex-
actly zero"
Mr.. Thurrell testified that the
black market, first noticeable after
OPA ceiling orders were issued, had
been increased when meat was ra-
toned,

Dry Leader CASTOR Guilty
Of Captain S Masquerade

A Municipal Court jury this after
noon convicted Edward Page Cas-
ton, 74-year-old prohibition cru
sader, of charge of illegally wear
ing the uniform of United States
Army captain. The jury deliberated
approximately 20 minutes.
The defendant faces a sentence
of six months in jail or $500 fine
or both.
The Government charged that Mr..
CASTOR wore the uniform, which
had New York Guard insignia, at the
National Press Club Canteen No
vember IA.
Mr.. CASTOR contended that as an
honorably discharged captain of the
New York Guard he was entitled to
wear the uniform on special oc-
casions because the unit is COW fed
eralized.
Judge George D. Nelson gave De-
fense Attorney P. Bateman Ennis
four days in which to file motion
for new trial Meanwhile, Mr..
CASTOR is free under $500 bond.
The Governments case was di-
rected by Assistant United States
Attorney John B. Diamond.

WAR Services Group
To Ponder Outline
AT Session Monday
Commissioners Urge
Committee to Continue
On Voluntary Busis

Members of the Executive Com
mittee of the Civilian War Services
OF the District will meet Monday
noon to decide definitely whether to
resign in view of the refusal of the
Commissioners to provide funds for
the hire of a paid staff for the VOL
unteer directors.
This was announced this afternoon
by Clarence A. Aspinwall, committee
chairman. after the city heads had
asked members of the group to re-
consider their tentative designations
The group had written to the Com
mlssloners Monday asking them to
reconsider their decisions not to
treat the unit as an official part of
the District civilian defense setup.
Services Are appreciated"
In his letter today to the group
Commissioner Young said the Com
missioners thought much good''
could be accomplished by the unit
operating on a voluntary basis. He
added: THE Commissioners are ap-
preciative of the service your group
has rendered and trust you will re-
solve the doubt expressed by your
committee in favor of continuance
OF your activities"
Members of the group in the let
ter Monday said they "regretfully
reached the conclusion that we could
perform no useful service" in at
tempting to operate without funds,
without a paid staff and on volun-
tary basis. They added that the
Executive Committee would have no
definite status and without an ex-
perlenced staff would be sWamped
with queries it could not answer and
requests it could not meet. The
committee sincerely doubts the pos
siblllty of continuing a program of
this magnitude without an executive
Office and some staff"
Staff Slated to Go Tomorrow.
The letter concluded that unless
the Commissioners decided to re-
consider their action the group felt
1t would be necessary to resign. Un-
less the Commissioners change their
orders, the half dozen paid employees
