Egg Producers
Can Maintain
High Qualify

With hot weather just ahead,
egg producers should be giving
consideration to ways and means
of maintaining egg quality. There
are several things that producers,
at very little cost to themselves,
can do to help maintain quality
and consequently maintain their
egg market.
Eggs should be gathered often
to prevent breakage and dirty
eggs. They should then be cooled
to so degree-60 degree Fahren-
heit. When left at temperatures of
SO degree, eggs will become inedi-
BILE in approximately three days.
They become inedible in approx
mately seven or eight days when
held at temperatures of IS degree
80 degree F.
After cooling, whether in a cool
ing room, mechanical cooler etc,
all dirty eggs should be cleaned.
Then all eggs should be packed.
large end up, in preceded cartons
or cases. Warm dry containers
draw moisture from within eggs
and consequently lower their quail
ity. Finally, eggs should be mark
eted twice weekly if quality is to
be maintained.
The outlook for egg prices is
for rising prices from now until
November or December. Prices
however, will not 60 as high this
fall as they did in the fall of 1858.
Egg prices in early 1855 will be
somewhat lower than has been the
case since January l, 1854

Today we need emphasis upon
harmony and brotherhood in our
relations as citizens, as fellow
workers in our economic life, and
as fellow Christians in our church
life. The Apostle Paul expressed
the Christian ideal which we
should have before us in his first
letter to the Corinthians: Unto
the church Of God which is a Cor
NTH, to them that are sanctified in
Christ Jesus, called to be saints.
with all that in every place call
upon the name of Jesus Christ
our Lord, both theirs and ours:
Grace be unto you, and peace,
from God our Father, and from the
Lord Jesus Christ" q Cor. 1921
Nov 1 beseech you, brethren,
by the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, that we all speak the same
thing, and that there be no divi-
sionS among you; but that we be
perfectly joined together in the
same mind and in the same judg-
ment. For it hath been declared
unto me of you, my brethren, by
them which are of the house of
Chloe, that there are contentious
among you. Now this l say. that
every one Of you saith, am Paul;
and I of Apollos; and / of Cephas;
and of Christ. Is Christ divided?

District Monopoly
On Liquor Sales Hit
By Commissioners
e Commissioners today

The Commissioners today
voiced disapproval of a bill
which would put the District in
the liquor business.
The action came after Corpo-
ration Counsel Vernon E. West
told the city heads the move
would eliminate big tax reve-
nue., both on liquor and in
comes, and would throw a lot of
people out of work.
The measure was introduced
in the House by Representative
Andrews, Democrat, of Alabama.
It would put all package liquor
stores under control of the Al
cohol Beverage Control Board,
creating a liquor monopoly.
Mr.. West also expressed con-
Germ that Government opera
ton of the stores might cause
prices to go up. This, he said,
would lose business to nearby
areas.
The Commissioners also gave
tentative approval to a plan for
raising the license fee for fire.
works dealers from the present
fiat SIS to SIS for retailers and
500 for wholesalers. They asked
Mr.. West to determine if this
would be in line with the Dis
trict's licensing regulations.
The Commissioners gave their
approval to a plan for display
ing flags on appropriate occa-
SionS along Pennsylvania avenue
from the Capitol to Seventeenth
street NV.
They were told it would re-
qulre 500 flags, at a cost of SIG
each for flags. poles and holes
dug in the concrete for inserting
the poles. The Commissioners
said the cost would be split be-
tween the District and the Fed
eral Government.

Expert Urges
Interim Curb on
CTC Dividends
Proposes Tying Up
Surplus Till Reserves
Deficiency Is Ended
By John w. Stepp

j. William Falk, executive &C.
countant of the District Public
Utilities Commission, today urged
that $24 million of Capital
Transit Co. earned surplus be
restricted to correct" a de-
f1ciency of that size in the COM
pany's reserves for property
depreciation.
Under Mr.. Falk's proposal the
restriction would prevent fur
ther distribution of stock divi-
dends until such time as the de-
ficiency in reserves disappeared.
Hearing in Third Day.
The commissions public hear
ing on the financial practices of
Capital Transit is in its third
day. The regulatory body is
under instructions of the U. S.
Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia to report to the
court by April 10 ON whether
the company's financial policies
are detrimental to the public
interest.
In his testimony today Mr..
Falk pointed out that the earned
surplus of Capital Transit has
been repeatedly tapped for divi-
dend distribution since the Louis
E. Wolfson management took
over in 1949. He said that if
this surplus is reduced to sum
lower than the $24 million Gin
dictated deficiency" in reserves
the company'S financial position
would be impaired.
To restrict the use of the
surplus, the witness added,
would take nothing from the
investors. It simply means that
their investment in the assets
in the company has been main
tanned intact"
Criticizes Dividend Plan.
Mr.. Falk also criticized the
February Is decision of the
Capital Transit Board of Direc-
tors to retire $50 million in out
standing bonds and to declare a
$670,000 dividend. These actions
have been stayed temporarily by
the appellate court pending con-
cluSion of the commissions
present investigation.
The Directors Board action,
Mr.. Falk declared, was solely
for the benefit of the stock
holders without consideration
for the interests of the riding
public" It's effect, he said, was
adverse to the public interest"
because the contemplated bond
redemption would free $50 mil
lion, for dividend distribution
rather than keeping it in the
company itself.
LAS I see it," he testified, "the
company prior to that time had
been in an excellent cash and
working capital position. Under
the boards decision the company
would unnecessarily be placed in
a position where it's ability to
perform it's public function of
providing reasonable service
would be seriously jeopardized."
