EGGS FOR THE PEOPLE
Sir, —Mention in the BEACON of the possibility of the State controlling the marketing of Whakatane's egg output may fill with fear some of your readers. However it seem? a sfep in the direction of orderly marketing. , No doubt there weir? misgivings when the dairy farmers got together to run dairy factories, rather than each churning a bit of butter and hawking it round. Still if people) doubt the freshness of th<* State's controlled eggs there is always the chance Joff boycotting t!:e steheme by every householder keeping a few hens on his quarter acre. There* seems no law. or by-law against that, except that the cosf and hard work of setting up as * back yard producer of eggs is too much for a lot of people. So let all who are "agin the Government" get half a dozen hens and a bag of chicken food and have eggs of guar*anteed freshness, why lean on ths State, even in the matter of eggs? Yours etc.. EGO.
