MILK MAN SHEDS TEARS
"Im Losing Money" he Said, and
Prosecuted by Press and People.

New York, Sept. 1S.-Asserting
that although his company was losing
money at the price at which it was
selling mix, he had been made "Uhe
victim of pernicious newspapers" and
had received many letters threaten
ing his life, Lotion Horton, president
of the Sheffield arms Company broke
down while testifying yesterday at the
first hearing held by the fair price
committee Investigating the high cost
of fluid milk.
Bursting into tears and pressing
handkerchief to his eyes, Mr.. Horton
said, sobb;ngsy:
81 have been the victim of pernici-
Gus newspaper, and Sociallstlc anc
Bclshevist issues. | have received
Navy letters threatening my life. Inc
cause of the high price of milk IS the
sentiment of the people, which is more
money and less work"
The dramatic climax to the hearing
came after Health Commissioner Cope
land. a member of the committee, naa
inquired if "the Health Departments
restrictions upon pasteurlzatlon OF
milk had increased the infant NOR
tality rate here"-presumably through
additional expense reflected IN Vhe
price to the consumer, the witness
sobhed out an answer in the negative.
.You milk men are great phllan-
ti:ropists," commented Health Commis
sioner Copeland, while Horton was ties
tifyirg. 81 was in one of your fac
tories recently and observed that you
were making milk sugar. | suppose
that was because you had a surplus
Of milk"
Horton said the purpose was to pre-
vent the waste of surplus milk, when
formerly was fed to pigs or used Tor
fertilizer. Milk sugar is selling at 81
cents a pound, he said.
Before leaving the stand, Horton
said that drivers employed by his
company earn about $40 week, and
beginning October /, when they WIZ
demand additional pay, their earn
ings including commissions Will ne
them $55 per week.
The committee listened to- the testi-S
mony of several other large d1strlou-
TORS. who were unanimous in asserting
thew were losing money.

New-York tribune., 1919-05-26

i. e., TIL the fifteen years period of
occupation intended for the Saar Basin
has expired.
"In connection herewith, I beg to
transmit to Your Excellency the in
closed draft, a proposal which has been
elaborated by the experts of the Ger
man peace delegation, requesting you
to submit the same to the experts of
the Allied and Associated governments
for examination and to let me have a
reply as to whether viva voce discus
sion of the proposal can be taken into
view.
"The German delegation would only
contemplate publishing the experts
proposal if the Allied and Associated
governments should on their part at
tach value thereto.
accept, Sir, the assurances Of my
highest esteem.
"(Signed) Brockdorf- Rantzau."
Proposal of German Experts
"To His Excellency the President
Of the Peace Conference, M. Clemen-
ceau:
Proposal Of the German experts:
according to Article 45 of the peace
treaty, the chief object Of the meas
ures proposed in Part 8, Section 4, con-
cerning the Saar Basin, is to furnish
compensation for the destroyed coal
mines in the North Of France and to
make good in part the war damages
caused by Germany According to
Article 46 the full freedom Of exploita-
tion is to be insured by the provisions
contained in Chapter of the annex.
"The point at issue is therefore to
satisfy and safeguard economic in
terests of France. In like sense the
provision of Paragraph SO Of the annex

the question OF the Saar territory with
out having regard to the coal supplies
to France and some of her allies pro-
vided for in Part 8, Annex 5. In
order to meet the interests in oues-
ton as completely as possible the fol-
lowing questions must be answered.
"A.-Which quantities of the differ
ent kinds of coal are required to meet
the total inland demand in France and
Belgium?
"B-Which cx1ntities Of coal are to
be supplied to the different regions, in
particular, of France?
We are prepared Immediately to
ascertain to what extent we are capable
of supplying the required quantities
and for this purpose to draw UP plan
OF delivery. In so doing regard will
have to be taken to the necessity of
providing for increased transport by
sea, in view of the long expanse of
time over which the obligation to de-
liver coal is extended
"It would be necessary to fix the
details of delivery in viva voce negotia-
tions between the experts of the powers
interested.
so AS to reparation of the war dam
ages suffered by the coal mines
we propose the following: The con-
Germs damaged in Northern France to
participate by shares to an extent
agreed upon in such German coal
mines as are charged with the delivery
of coal to the regions mentioned
"The details of this transaction to
be settled mutually by the German
French experts.

vded for in Article 49 and in
Chapter 2 of the annex to Part 8,

Section d, concerning the Saar territory
is, just as that Of occupation of the
territory to the left of the Rhine and
of the bridgeheads, to insure the full
fllment Of the obligation which will
be undertaken by Germany.
'These measures, as we'll as the meas
ure of control, carried out and COM
pleted up to now by the Allied and
Associated governments, measures
which mean restriction or cancella-
ton of the liberty of German economic
life, would, apart from the heavy polit-
ical danger, moreover paralyze the con-
certed capacity of Germany, the entire
maintenance of which is Of the utmost
Importance also for her neighbors. In
lieu of these measures we are ready to

nomic nature perfectly on a par with

Principles for Dividing Supplies
GAS far as supplies of Goals enter into
account, we allow ourselves to be
guided by the following principles:
The desired guarantees for regularity
of production and of delivery may be

insuring to them a considerable in.
fuence upon the administration Of the
German concerns in question.
BY the grant of right Of prece.

surplus not suffice for the discharge OF
