and after April a nine-cent mark
waa reached. With condensed milk
at a five-cent level, the local price
of the last few months has been re
Rarded as a reasonable price, accord
ing to local men In the milk busi
ness. Meager report from a noon con
ference, held at the Community Cash
Grocery store. Indicated the mnjorltj
of dealers agreed to attempt to reas
sert a higher price but took no Im
mediate action.
No Increase In sales wa s expected,

ticularly in comparison to products
In the luxury class where buying Is
stimulated by lowered prices.
Some retail grocers expressed be
lief thnt the rock-bottom price would
