Receipt of complaints, it is stated, will enable the department to Cooperate more fully with New York City officials in the war on live poultry racketeering The complaints are expected to come from shippers who have been forced to pay extra charges levied by the feed, poultry 000p and trucking monopolies on the New York City market. They should include Specific instances, names and dates. Markets Commissioner Morgan at New York City says one of the first phases of the racket which will be attacked will be the charge taken from the returns to shippers for cartage when the service has not even been performed. It is stated that a decline of nearly carloads of live poultry shipped to New York City was principally because of monopolistic levies causing diversion of shipments to other markets. It is estimated that producers receive 12 cents less out of every consumer - dollar as a direct result or the racketeering in the live poultry industry.
