MILK CONDENSERS
DECLINE To PAY
HOOVER s PRICE
more Cases on Hand Now
Than Can Be Disposed of
During Whole Year, Says.
Borden'S Manager,

Chicago, March S.--The revolt of
milk Condensng companies against
prices of milk set by food commissions
reported today is due to unfavorable
market conditions, according to j. j..
Fitzpatrick, manager of the Borden
company of Chicago.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick gave figures which
he said were furnished by other milk
dealers and were only approximate,
estimating the number of cases or
condensed and evaporated milk on
hand in the United States at 10000
600. Domestic consumption runs
about 100000 cases a year, leaving
14,000,0 900 for export. The govern
ment, which fixes its own price for
purchasing has tonnage for only
100000 cases a year.
with no visible outlet for nearly
ten million cases, condenseries are
not eager to buy high priced milk to
add to their stores" said Mr.. Fitzpat-
rick.
THE condenseries, understand,
were not bound by the agreements.
The distributors of straight milk
alone were involved"
For the Chicago district, which in
cludes southern Wisconsin. northern
Illinois, northwestern Indiana and
western Michigan, the price was at
first fixed at $3.50 per hundredweight
to the farmer. Farmers. however,
protested so vigorously that further
consideration was given and a new
price of $310 was fixed.
Milk distributors are still paying
this price, and up to today the con-
denseres also, but the latter sent out
the $3.50 bid today. 1t is said that
condenseries throughout the country
have made proportlonate reductions
in their bids.
Farmers throughout the Chicago
district were reported on the verge OF
a strike as a result,

Washington. March S.--Issuance of
daily lists of casualties among the ex-
peditionary forces abroad was discon
tinued today by the public informa-
ton committee as the result of an or
der of the war department under
which the names of the next of kin
and emergency addresses of soldiers
whose names appear on the lists here
after will be withheld. The official
explanation is that the purpose of the
order is to keep information of value
from the enemy.
on being informed of the order the
committee took the position that long
lists of men killed or wounded would
be worth less to the newspaper cor
respondents without the addresses,
and notice was issued advising the
press that in future all information
legarding casualties must be obtained
from the war department.
At the adiutant generals office it
was stated that the lists without ad-
dresses would continue to be sent to
the committee and would be available
there.
While the disagreement between
the committee and the department
probably will be straightened out soon

the purpose of the department to
withhold the addresses apparently is
