Eggmen Told
Members of the Pennsylvania
Egg Marketing Association were
advised to see that the state is
not overlooked in any move to
gain a stronger position in egg
marketing for producers
The advice came from a
PEMA membei, Samuel Beren
son of York, who said that it ap
peared that Pennsylvania, one of
the nation’s most important egg
marketing and production states,
had been left out of a national
movement spearheaded by the
National Egg Co and the New
England Egg Marketing Associa
tion
“We should be ready with a
representative to protect our in
terests,” said Berenson
