4 Accused of Attempt
To Corner Egg Market
By th« Ai*ociot«4 Prm
The Government yesterday called
on Great Western Distributors, Inc.,
of New York and four of Its offi
cials and employes to answer charges
that they attempted to comer the
egg market last December.
A hearing on the charges, filed by
the Agriculture Department, was set
for August 10 at Chicago. A depart
ment referee will preside.
In a formal complaint, the depart
ment said those named managed,
through trading operations on the
Chicago mercantile exchange, to
gain control of the bulk of the sup
ply of eggs in Chicago and sur
rounding areas.
By virtue of this alleged control,
the department said, they put them
selves in a position where they could
demand such prices as they saw fit
of those traders who needed eggs
to cover future delivery contracts.
The department said these trad
ing operations violated the Com
modity Exchange Act, which is de
signed to prevent price manipula
tions in farm commodities.
Besides the company, those named
in the complaint were Nathaniel E.
Hess of New York, vice president;
Charles B. Borden of La Grange,
111., manager of the company’s Chi
cago branch office; Thomas P.
Haynes of Ralston, N. J., secretary,
and Hartley L. Harriss of New York,
described as an employe of the
company.
Loss of trading privileges on the
Nation's futures contract markets is
the penalty provided by law for
the charges made by the Govern
ment. if they are upheld.
Mr. Hess said in New York that
“so far as we know, we have tnot
violated any rules, regulations or
laws in our business transactions.
We will file a formal answer to the
complaint as required.”
150Ricnmond Firemen
Battle 5-Alarm Blaze
RICHMOND, Va., July 20.—A five
alarm fire in the downtown ware
house area here last night brought
out 150 firemen to battle the blaze
which burned out a four-story brick
building and spread to two adjoin
ing structures.
The fire, discovered shortly before
9 p.m., in the Just-A refrigerator
center on East Main street, was ac
companied by two explosions, which
came about 25 minutes apart.
The explosions threw the flames
upward and outward to a corner of
the adjoining Spencer Casket Co.
Flames also spread to the Benjamin
Franklin Printing Co. building.
At least 3,000 spectators gathered
to watch the spectacle of smoke and
flames. The only injury .reported
was one fireman who was overcome
with smoke.
The flames were under control
about two hours later.
Firemen could not say what
caused the Explosions. Some guessed
they may have resulted from gas
escaping in the refrigeration Renter,
where hotel and restaurant equip
ment is normally stored.
There was no estimate of the ex
tent of damage.
Cause of the fire has not been de
termined.
Havana, Cuba, now has beef and
milk shortages. ...

COLUMBIA, S. C., July 20 —Gov.
J. Strom Thurmond of South Caro
lina, the presidential candidate of
rebellious Southern Democrats, says
the advocates of * States’ Rights
neither need nor want the aid of
"rabble rousers."
Gov. Thurmond yesterday refused
an offer of support from Gerald
L. K. Smith, leader of the Chris
tian Nationalist Party, with these
words:
“We do not invite, we do not need,
the support of Gerald L. K. Smith
or any other rabble rousers who use
race prejudice and class hatred to
inflame the emotions of our people.”
Gov. Thurmond said in an inter
view that the States’ Rights move
ment “is not based on racial hate
nor racial prejudice,” and he pre
dicted that most of the South would
support the rebellious Democrats.
He said he planned a vigorous cam
paign.
