auction is providing. Then, too,
continued Mr.. Shockleys "the fact
that it is not unusual to have nine
or ten different professors and live
buyers making daily purchases at
the auction, points out that the
buyers are cooperating with this
new marketing venture"
Any buyer licensed through the
Bureau of Markets, State Board of
Agriculture, Dover, is eligible to
buy poultry through the Eastern
Shore Poultry Growers Exchange.
Jack Blades, chief of the Poultry
Division of the Bureau of Markets
met with the directors of the ex-
change last Monday evening to
explain the licensing law of the
state and assured the officers of
the desire of the State Board of
Agriculture to cooperate with this
newly formed association in every
way possible.
This eighth week also saw the
first sale cOnsumated through the
POcOmOke City branch of the auc-
ton. Through the installation of
special telephone equipment, own
ers of tiOcks in the southern part
of the Peninsula can participate in
each days sales by stopping at the
V. F. w. Home in POcomOke. A
direct wire with amplifcatiOn
equipment permits the sale being
conducted by AuctiOneer Long, in
the principal Office of the ex-
change in Selbyville, to be heard
at the POcOmOke branch Office.
Purchases can be made at the
branch station by any buyers who
find it more convenient to be in
that part of the Peninsula. Addi-
tiOnal branches are contemplated
in an effort to save time and travel
Milford chronicle., 1952-08-22

of growers of the more distant
communities from Selbyville.
Another recently adopted service
of the exchange is the release of
a daily sales report. This report
lists the owner, kind of chickens,
number, age, and with the buyer
and price paid. This international
sheet is available at the close of
each days auction. 1t will be mail
ed on request, to those people fur
nishing a rubber stamp of their
name and address.
Other officers serving with Pres
ident Shockley are Curtis Steen,
Roy Twilley, Jennings B. Quillen,
Harry Dukes, Jr., E. Peter Rich
ardsOn, and William Stevenson.
These officers constitute the exec
utive committee of the association.
In addition, other members of the

Prudential Insurance
Company Has Prepared
NeLC Protection Plan

Office, and his agency staff. 1t is
part of a comprehensive set-up
which includes hospital and surgi-
cal expense insurance as we'll as
income protection.
The Prudential, second largest
insurance company in the world
is offering a complete program of
such policies on an individual
basis.
"PrudentiaPs new sickness and ac-
cident insurance is one of the most
complete programs that could be
devised" Mr.. Wells said today. 1T
represents the results of exhaus-
tive studies which were undertaken
in recognition of the average mans
crying need for protection against
the economic calamity of accident
or prolonged sickness.
THE average working man is
going to be able to protect himself
and to do so on the same monthly
basis he used in handling most of
his financialstra For ex-
ample, for about SIS a month, a 30
to 34-year-Old worker can make
sure that he'll have an income of
$100 a month for a year if he is
disabled by sickness. And if his
disability results from an accident,
that income will be continued for
two years.
And the beauty of it is that he
is certain that he can renew his
insurance year after year until age
65. No matter what his sickness
record may be, his income prOtec-
ton cOverage cannot be cancelled,
so long as he continues to pay his
premiums as they come due"
Included in. these policies are
lump sum benefits payable in the
event of the death or dismember-
ment of the insured person.
The disqualification and surgical
expense insurance which Pruden-
tial now offers on a personal basis,
provides benefits comparable to
those which, heretofore, it has
made available only in group con-
tracts. The new policies may be
made to cover either an individual
or an entire family Their benefits
include hospital costs within such
limits as the applicant selects, and
reimbursement for all or part of
| the cost of surgical care.
According to Mr.. Wells, the new
program has been developed so as
to provide the maximum flexibility
Accordingly, a wide variety OF
needs can be covered and almost
any man can protect himself
against the financial hazards OF
prolonged illness or accident.

Used Car Overcharge
CONTINUED from first pager

ranged from $5 to 5000 per car.
Willard d. BOyce, state OPS di-
rector, said that the largest num-
Der of OveTcharges made by any
one firm was seven, for a total of
1920. Another company, however,
was required to refund over
charges tOtaling $4O5 on six pur-
chases. Twelve of the dealers were
assessed the amount of the over
charge only, since no apparent
willfulness was involved. Two
other paid an equal amount in
damages to the government, while
a third was assessed double dam
ages in addition to the restitution.
Mr. BOyce said that ceilings for
used cars are the highest prices
that may be charged-and added
that it is still the buyers respOn-
sibility to determine if he is get
ting proper value for the price he
pays.

Nagging backache, loss of pep and energy,
headaches and dizziness may be due to slow

kidney function is very important to good

as stress and strain, causes this important
function to slow down, many folks suffernag-
ging backache-feel miserable. Minor blad-

cause getting up nights or rfrequentpassages.
