Indignant dairyrnen rushed to Tht Times today to explain that surplus milk is made into butter and not thrown away, a circumstance which is fairly well known to the average news paper reader. The explanation was prccipitated by a newspape story, born nobody knows how to the effect that the big dealers were pouring their surplus into the city'5 sewers.
 The Mitchell Dairy company made the following statement:
 There was published last night in a local evening paper,a statement that the Mitchell Dairy company and the Farmery Dairy company, were throw ing away a large quantity of milk each day in order to maintain the price on milk.

CALLS. JURORS
 UNFORTUNATE

Judge John F. Keeler of Superior court classed as "unfortunate,' jurors Francis c. Hoyt, Stamford; and Roy al $. Smith, Fairfield, when they con fessed yesterday afternoon that they held bonds in the Connecticut com pany or New Haven road. The occas- ion was upon the starting of two suits brought against the Connecticut company by Albert and Anthony Montefalco, who are represented by Attorney c. s. Hamilton, New Haven.
 The court waited nearly all of the afternoon for Hamilton who failed to show up until just about curfew time. It was feared that he had fallen in the arms of the Milford police who are bears on stopping speeders. But this was found not to be the case.
 When all was set the jurymen were told that any could be excused who held stock or bonds in either the troll ley company or railroad Two men admitted such wealth. and were ex- cused. The court then adjourned un- til Tuesday. All cases originally scheduled for Tuesday have been post poned until the following day.

: An Allied conference will be called shortly to deal primarily with the Tap question: said a prominent British official If the United States wants mandate changed why does she not send representatives to state American views"
 Washington, May 6.-President Harding will consult with his cabinet today as to the advisability of Amer ican representative again being sent to sit at the Conference tables of Flu ropean statesmen.
 The Allies invitation to the United States to participate in the shape of a formal inquiry, which requires a for nal and definite answer. It thanks the United States for the ''tactful" manner in which it handled the Ger man Preparations appeal, frankly asks this government again to take part in the conferences.
 It can be stated authoritively that a considerable section of the cabinet is favorab1y inclined toward the idea of American participation. The prin- cipa1 questions appear to be as to the extent of this participation and whether it will be an official or un- official character.
 cial representatives armed with pow CTS to commit this government would require senatorial sanction and sen Hnlent in the Senate toward the idea is not so favorable as it is in the Cabinet.
 It is considered doubtful whether President Harding will care to risk representatives or ''observers'' can be sent abroad solely on his own initia.- tive and without any congressi onaI sanction.
