IXL The Milk Administration, under the f 0 J broad authority granted It by the Ore gon Milk Control Law, sets limits on the richness of milk. It also sets the price yon must pay for milk. ' The limits differ somewhat In different pens of the state, but the principle U always the same. In Portland standard milk is limited to 3.8 butterfat. If any distrib utor should deliver richer milk he is required to charge two cents more. In Josephine end Jackson counties richer milk is more drastically discouraged. The moment a distributor goes above J.4 butterfat he must charge his customers.one cent more, ind at 3,7 he must charge still another cent, and so on through sereral price rtnges. A. O. A. .

Torture Used Once a merchant is charged, he is forced by physical and mental torture to confess. He is not only required to confess his alleged guilt but also the amount of money and property he possesses. The fines often amounting to expropriation. One new police method used in the campaign is "office ar rest," I.e., confining the accused to Ms office for questioning until he confesses. The arrivals said in almost every office in Shanghai there is someone under arrest. The arrivals said the main ob jective In the "five anti move ment" Is to get funds from the money class to refill the national treasury, which has been drain ed by the Korean war. That ac counted for the phenomenon that however serious may be the charge, the accused is always re leased after he has paid the fine. The arrivals branded it as "state extortion pure and simple."
