Details Of Price Support Announced

OTTAWA, Jan. 26 (CP) Agricultural experts estimate that retail prices of eggs likely will climb five and 01x cents a dozen within the next few days as a re- sult of the government's price-Sill): port program announced today.

The piogram, outlined by Agri- culture Mlnlster Gardiner at a. press conference, guarantees pack- ing plants and other cold-storage operators 38 cents a dozen plus cost. of storage on all unsold surplus eggs at the end of 1950.

The 38-cent; price will be paid by the Government. on all eggs stored as Grade A Large. Grade A Medium eggs will get. a guaran- teed price of 36 cents.

In other words, if the wholesal- crs 1s unable to get 38 cents n. dozen from the market. he'll mere- ly put the eggs in sborage and col- lect the 38 cents from the Govern- ment at the end of the year. On top of that. he'll collect all storage costs.

As a result, retail prices for egg say the experts, will climb Dro- portiona-tcly. If they are currently selling at between 35 and 40 cents a dozen for Grade A Large, they likely will jump to about 40 und 45 cents.

Mr. Gardiner estimated that the price-support program will have the effect of nailing down a floor price for the producer of between 30 and 32 cents. However. there is no guarantee. Egg-grading stations are free to pay whatever they con- sider will give them B. reasonable profit.

Reaction from Poultrymen

Some poultry‘ industry spokes- man questloned the value of the price-support program. In Vancou- ver, L.l-I. Ciirr of Buckerfields, Ltd, one of British Columbia's czg and feed deulers, said the guaran- teed price will mean continuing contraction in the industry.

The industry produces about 330,000,000 dozens 0f eggs a year. Sonic of the flocks, however, had been killed off as a result of the announcement that; Canada was not able tii obtain a new egg con-

tract from the United Kingdom this year. This is the third price-support

stu- action for food announced by the and l Government within

gi-eaterlweeks. Because of shiirp declines subjccls.;ln prices cheese will be supported more scholarships and bursaries to l at. 2s cents it pound and bacon at;

the last few

3L".- cents a pound for the firs-t; half of 1960. ‘

While the government, will takcl delivery of cheese and bacon fol fill United Kingdom tontriicts. Mru, Gardiner announced that this will not be done in the cuse of eggs.

Thc government will not. partic- ipate directly iii the egg business. The storing and merchandising of eggs will remain in the hands of the industry."

There was no indication what will happen in the event; that n. surplus does lllle up at. the enit of the year nnd the government is forced to buy the eggs,

.\lr. Gardiner referred to the iluestioii of supporting prices .if lVfnrltiiiic potatoes. Here, iigiiln. he said, tlie government did not ivnnt to get iii the putiitu business, but that dlii not mean that the cab- iiiet Wtlllld not consider some plan to helping potato as well as apple IIYKDVETS.

Currently, however, Canadian potato growers were getting rid of their surpluses at “reasonable re- turns."

Canada Badges For Naval Personnel

OTTAWA. Jaii. 26 —- (C?) Navy officers and ratings soon will be wearing “Canada" badges on the shoulders. Naval Head- quarters announced today.
