In- cidentally speculators who gambled on a shortage last spring, when eggs were at record breaking prices, are asking that their losses be wiped out and an actual profit be guaranteed to them hy the government. asking not only that the army ration be changed to accomplish this, but ithat the government fix the price on jeges by increasing the present mar- iket rates so as to give the speculat- jors 10 per cent over cost. Government reports show that |there are 88,175 cases or 26,615,250 dozens, more eggs in storage this month than a year ago. They: were |bought in April at an average of 37 | 1-2 cents a dozen, In 1016 the April | storag average cost of 2§ to 27 cents.
