In a letter sent to each produc er, Montgomery explained th a t the survey showed th at the cost of production did not rise as much between January 1941 and Decem ber 1942 as did the producer price of milk which increased from 58c per pound b u tte r f a t. in January 1941 to 75c per pound a t the end of 1942, an increase- of 29.3% Since the end of 1942, Montgom ery pointed out th at the produc ers have received another 10c a pound increase in the price of but te rfa t so that the present price of 85c per pound is about 46.5% greater than the price in January 1941. None of the information submitted by dairymen, Montgom ery declared, indicates th at total production costs have risen 46.5% although certain items of cost have. - - m Calculations made on the basis of the official Oregon State Col lege cost-of-productìon formula indicate th a t the present price is well above the average cost of T C S M O’MEARA Supply & Imp. Co production, Montgomery stated. The studies made by Oregon State College also indicate th a t the irrigated pasture areas of Central Oregon are among the lowest cost production areas for dairying in the state, he said. Montgomery stated th at the de cision reached by the diatrict OPA oflice was made ‘‘with a full ap preciation of the strain undeT which dairymen operate because of labor stortagea and other dif ficulties” but th a t other action was not possible under the policy established by the Emergency Price Control Act of 1942 and the direc tives of the president which re quire the OPA to prevent inflation and keep down the coat of living. Montgomery urged th a t farm ers and other workers alike submit their claims to impartial analy sis, and accept the decision in the spirit of good citizenship without resort to strike*. The way is al ways open for reconsideration, he declared when any new data can be presented.
