IN 0RNE TELLS BROTHERHOOD IF
 DAIRYINC CRISIS
(By Edgar Kennison)

Driving the darymen out of business by unfair restrictions, and gross mis- representations on the part of Armour and company and others, were charges made by the principal speakers at the Brotherhood luncheon at the Central Methodist church Saturday.
 Some 60 or more well known business md professional people were. gathered lt the tables.
 pr. Wilkinson by way of introduce ton, stated that a request had been made that the Merchants and Manu- lecturers association might have rep resentatives attend to discuss issues In the coming city election.
 Dr. Wilkinson and others suggested that two speakers each. one for and against, present conditions in Phoenix, be invited to discuss issues next Sat urday.
 This matter was taken under ad- visement by the executive committee.
 pr. Wilkinson called George Lut- gerding to the chair, and in so doing announced that those promoting civic improvements were invited to be pre- sent and freely speak their minds, re- gardless of creed or party alignment.
 The chairman then introduced Linn B. Orme, who said:
 Milk is Food Necessity
 T wonder if it is necessary to call your attention to the fact that milk has been reported by the government spe- cialists as the most necessary of all
Arizona republican., 1918-03-24

foods. Wheat, corn and meat and their food values have been accurately de- termined, but there is something about milk more important than all these especially to the young.
 Despite the urgent necessity of milk conserva ton, the dairy industry has been neglected more than any other. In the midst of this time of evolution and revolution, the great firms of Ar mour and Swift and allied interests rallied to protect the meat and grain products, incidentally protecting them selves to the extent of 40 to 70 per cent profits.
 "All this time the dairymen have been compelled to go along with an estimated per cent wholesale, which when brought down to facts and fig ures resulted. in an absolute loss to producers of 50 per cent.
 "Gentlemen, we do not want profit in this awful hour of conflict. We want to serve and save. We do not want the most important food industry of this valley to become extinct. Mir. Elliott, your government expert, has said that in many instances the cost of production was 50 per cent more than the selling price of milk and but ter fats. It had been thought by some that dairymen grew their own alfalfa and feed, but Dr. Elliott had found that dairymen purchased nine-tenths of the food they used.
 "Why don't we go out of business? :? Because we are patrsotic; because we are game, we will not desert the coun- try in this hour of need unless con- pelled to by a policy of extermination.
 Loud applause)
 Some are breaking down. Last Jan uary 1900 cows went to the block. In February only about 1000. Why the falling off? Because cows were get ting to poor to sell.
 Credit is Exhausted | 'I met a man the other day, who told of the bad condition of his herd. why don't you buy feed?' I inquired. My credit is exhausted said he, and I
 will soon be compelled to sell at what ever I can get
