REVEALS MILK SITUATION
FROM CROCERS' VIEW
John Brayshaw's Letter Questions
Position Taken by Fair
Price Board.
To the Editor Of The Star:


In recent issues of your paper there
have appeared a. number of articles
in reference to the resolution of tie
fair price board" that cents a pint
and IS cents q quart was a fair price
for milk. and that anything in excess
of these prices was an unjust profit
There has also appeared an announce
ment to tie effect that the district
attorney had placed before the grand
jury the cases of three grocers who
were found selling milk at prices in
excess of cents pint and is cents
a quart
When the announcement of the
resolution of the fair price board
was first made. the president of the
Retail Grocers' Association, Jonn
Brayshaw. requested the attorney Tor
the association to call upon the dls-
trict attorney and to advise him that
Mr.. Brayshow intended to sell milk
at greater price than that attempt
ed to be fixed by the resolution OIL
the fair price board, and that he was
willing to stand Indictment and trlaI.
His purpose in doing this was to show
in court of justice the utter alb
surdity and injustice of the position
taken by the fair price board ana
to show the people OF this community
that charges of .profiteering which
have in various forms been made
against the retail grocers are with
out the slightest foundation in TACT
At recent meeting of the Retail
GrocerS' Association resolution IN :
dorsing the Lever bill to prevent
profiteering was unanimously adopt
ed as the members of this assocla-
ton are only DESTROYS of receiving a
Just and reasonable price for their
merchandise.
The retail grocers have preserved
a dignified silence under unfair ana
unjust criticism for months past, DIT
the threat to brand as criminals men
who have asked for a fair and rea-
sonable profit that would enable them
| to continue business has aroused IN
them a determination to hgnt THIS
issue out to the limit.
The grocer pays 16 cents quart
| wholesale for his milk, and when
| ne sells the same at 20 cents quart
he is receiving the same percentage
| of profit on this article that he has
received for the last twenty-five years
although his overhead expenses have
| Increased in the last few years by
AZ least 80 per cent. If the officials
| charged with the enforcement Of the
| lever act against profiteering think
| that they can make out case on
j these facts they are sadly mistaken
| ,et il be remembered that the opinion
of the fair price board as to whethe.
or not price asked and received
, for an article is unjust and unrea-
| sonabIe" has no force in trial court
| Facts-not opinions-are necessary to
/ support an indictment and maintain
conviction. JUN b1sA 1oIifA"'
