455 - L. Aug. 22; ed:2/2 - Speculation in butter is causing indignation
among people in New York, Philadelphia, and other cities, and a boycott
is suggested for one weak to bring down the price.
"There is no reason why butter should be so high since farmers are
not taxed, but the high price will work its own cure, as less butter will
be used.". - (4)
