MILK PRODUCERS TO
 DISCUSS SITUATION

Grade E milk producers will meet at the Phoenix chamber of commerce at II o'clock this morning for the ana nounced purpose of organizing to pre- vent the total destruction of the dairy industry in the Salt River valley"
 J. F. WestberS, a dairyman living two miles south and west of Phoenix, reported to the chamber of commerce that he had conferred with 12 or 15 grade E producers and that all of them were in favor of the proposed organ ization and that all grade B producers in the valley were asked to be present at the meeting this morning.
 In his explanation of the grade B milk situation he said such producers are now getting about 23 to A cents a gallon for milk: that the average herd production of milk in the valley is somewhat less than two gallons to the COW: that the average cost of produc- ton is a fraction of a cent less than cents a gallon; and that figuring cost of hay at $30 a ton the average dairyman receives less than SIS ton for such hay fed to the cows. He stated this as the situation in grade B milk.
 He said that all grade A milk was sold direct by the distributors, whereas the grade B was sold to the retailers who in turn sold it at 70 cents gallon in quart bottles. He said the purpose of the organization was to arrive at some equitable price as a basis for grade B milk.

Effective today the list price of kero- sene in all grades will be advanced 21a cents per gallon in Phoenix, according to a statement issued yesterday by the management of the Standard Oil com pany. A corresponding increase will also prevail in surrounding towns while varying increase will be in eff feet at all other Arizona stations of the Standard Oil company.
 Kerosene is normally supplied from California" the announcement states but the acute shortage in California has made it impossible to continue the supply from that point. Sub-statlons in the Arizona field are now being sup piled with kerosene purchased by this company from refiners in Texas and Oklahoma and the new price in effect is based on the higher cost of the pro- ducA Our suppliers now assure us they will provide sufficient kerosene to meet the full demand contingent of course, upon uninterrupted transporta- ton conditions and adequate supply of tank cars.''
