BOOST IN PRICE
Of MILK SEEN

An appeal for better prices to
farmers for milk, made by Frank
S. Walker, president of the Mary
land and Virginia Milk Producers
Association, today brought the
threat Of a rise in milk prices
to Washington.
In a statement yesterday Mr..
Walker said that better prices
were necessary for the farmers
to survive and asked for an
increase Of two cents a gallon
for fluid milk. This increase, he
asserted, need not be passed on
to the consumer.
However, local distributors to-
day refused to comment, pre-
ferring to withhold statements
until officially notified of the
milk producers demands.
