SURPLUS MILK BONE
OF CONTENTION
Much Dissatisfaction Over
Agreement Between Dairy
Products Corporation And
Government

The danger of a milk strike in
Cecil and Hartford counties looms as
result of the dissatisfaction of
farmers and milk producers who are
much agitated because the agree
ment between the National Dairy
Products Corporation and the gov
eminent fails to consider the prob
lem of surplus milk.
The agreement signed between the
corporation and the government
raises the price of milk to the con-
sumner one cent on quarts, but makes
no change in the surplus situation.
The milk distributors continue to
have the right to declaIne the
amount of surplus for the producers
at low price while they sell this
surplus to the consumer for grade B
milk, extracting grade B price for
the consumer.
There is considerable talk of a
strike in this section. The outcome
depends ON the result of the confer
ence between the producers and Sec
rotary Wallace, of the U. S. Agricul-
tural Department, within til. next
thirty days. If such q strike is
called, the producers will give away
milk to institutions and welfare Or
CARNATIONS. instead of the usual
dumping methods which have been
used heretofore.

ENGINEERS STUDY SUPER RoA1

ENGINEERS STUDY SUPER ROAD
The proposed four-lane high.
speed super-highway from Boston te
Washington, serving but not enter.
ing Wilmington, and other big cities
began to take definite form last week
when committee of highway offic-
ais, including W. w. Mack, chief
engineer of the Delaware Highway
Department, inspected that part OF
the route lying between New York
and Trenton.
The highway, which will connect
with others, will eventually provide
the military road for the future
from Florida to Maine.
The plan is being pushed as an
NRA project. The total cost will be
$500, 100000, part to be borne by
the National Government and part
by the States.
Roughly, it would follow Route
No. 1. which would have to~be i'm
proved. By-passes around large
cities, elimination of existing bottle
necks and narrow bridges and aboli-
ton of grade crossings are called for
in the plans.
Representatives of the eight States
through which the super-highway
will pass met last week at the Com
modore Hotel in New York and de-
termined to make surveys as soon AS
practical
A committee headed by R. M,
Reindollar, assistant chief engineer
of the Maryland Roads Commission,
land including officials from each of
the other states concerned is making
a study of the project.
The problem, Mr.. Reindollar ex-
planned, is to bring the highway as
close to the big cities as possible,
and at the same time not have the
purely local traffic longest that On
the high-speed route.
For this reason, he said, the
junction between Pennsylvania. Del
aware and Maryland has not yet
been definitely determined.
Pennsylvania prefers entering the
State from the south near Sylmar.
There are alternate plans, one going
by Westover Hills and joining the
Elkton highway. now under con-
struction in Delaware, as dual
highway, near Glasgow and going to
Elkton. The route through Sylmar
would cut out Delaware. 1t is hop
ed to have final plans with a specific
route completed within two or three
weeks. These would be submitted
to NRA administration.
