MEDFORD. MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1943. v
MILK PRICE HIKES IMPLICATION OF
AUTHORIZED WHEN DELIVERY ROUTES
SHORTAGES LOOM BANNED OCT. 11
OPA Empowers Regional Of
fices to Make Adjust
merits Up to 2 Cts. Quart,
Washington. Oct. 7 (U.B
Stabilization Director Fred M.
Vinson today ordered limited in
creases in wholesale and retail
milk nrices where such action
is necessary to correct serious
milk shortages in communities
of 29,000 or less.
The Office of Price Adminis
tration immediately authorized
regional offices to carry out such
adjustments.
The Vinson directive specifies
that retail price increases must
not exceed two cents a quart.
Retail increases in excess of one
cent a quart or action which
causes increases of more than
one and a half cents a quart
over prices prevailing in March,
1942 must be referred to Wash
ington for approval.
Act in Shortage
Regional OPA offices will act,
the OPA said, when a .local milk
shortage results from marked
disparities between prices re
ceived by producers shipping
milk to different but neighbor
ing markets; or from low fluid
milk prices paid to producers
compared to prices being paid at
nearby plants where milk is
manufactured into dairy products.
Increases also will be granted
when unusual localized cost con
ditions related to war activities
threatens to reduce substantially
or eliminate the milk supply.
Vinson's directive was de
signed to restrict the flow of
milk to larger cities where
prices have been higher. This
movement of milk had caused
marked shortages in normal
nearby milk marketing areas.
Consumer and wholesale dis
tributors and industry organiza
tions should contact the office
of defense transports tion for in
formation about delivery sched
ule restrictions which become
effective Monday, October 11,
1043, Jim H. Busch, district
O.D.T. manager, announced to
day.
Busch declared the order pro
vides that each wholesale and
consumer distributor set up de
livery areas or delivery routes
which are not overlapping or
duplicating and to prepare a
map showing routes to be
travelled after October II, 1943.
This does not mean." said
Busch, "that no concern may
duplicate the routes of another.
The requirement is that no
carrier operate over a delivery
route or area which duplicates
or overlaps another of his own
routes or areas.
He added that some Industries
in working out their delivery
plans have found it advisable to
form O.D.T. approved joint ac
tion plans as a means of protect
ing individual company business.
While personal taxes have in
creased from about S3 billion in
1940 to an estimated $16 billion
in 1943, total income payments
to individuals increased during
the same period from $76 billion
to at least $140 billion.
