Rap Bid to
Up Milk Price
PORTLAND. Sept. 26-VP)-Con-sumer
opposition to a dairymen's
bid for higher prices on milk here
rallied today around a mother's
plea. Her five children lined up
beside Mrs. F. X. McLellan.
"I just have to protest," she
said, explaining the proposed two-cent-a-quart
boost would add $3
to her monthly $30 milk bill. She
added it meant $36 a year, which
would pay her children's dental
bills. - V -.
J. A. BelL spokesman for the
CIO industrial unions here, also
opposed. He said his unions rep
resented many low income groups.
. J. Warrington Stokes, county
public welfare commission admin
istrator, warned of the high load
the dairymen's demands would add
to the taxpayers. He said it means
$90,000 a year more on the milk
bill for the 20,000 to 30,000 per
sons on the rolls. This was based
on a minimum of one pint per per
son per day, he said, including
6,000 children. f
The dairymen said they need the
boost to meet higher production
costs. The hearing is being held
by the state milk control board for
the Portland muk shed area.
