MILK MONOPOLY TALK

Milk is one of the most important
farm products, and IN many communities
it represents the backbone of the farm In
come. Therefore, farmers are jealous in
safeguarding their position in this i'm
portant industry
Recently it was charged in Congress
siOnal hearings that the distribution of
milk has been monopolized by few large
companies. Farmers should investigate
for themselves the truth of this charge. If
true, they should unite to fight the evil; if
not true. it should not be allowed to be-
cloud their minds.
Most land-owning farmers consider
themselves as independent business men,
free to buy and sell wherever they please
They can consume their milk themselves,
or sell it to dairy cooperatives or to the
commercial distributing organization, be-
ing free TO find the best available market.
Those who desire may become milk dis
tributors themselves, and many farmers
have done so.
Because the business of distributing
milk is open to any farmer or business man
who might care to enter it, keen competi-
ton is Inevitable. In every. community
there are half-dozen or more competing
distributors, large and small, all subject to
the test Of efficiency. Only those distri-
butors will survive and grow large who are
able to pay fair prices to the. farmer, while
keeping them reasonable to the consumer
through economy of operation.
These conditions do not tend toward a
monopoly, as neither buying and selling
prices. nor supply and demand, can be con-
trolled. Most farmers are familiar with
these facts, and have shown little concern
over the charges of monopoly which have
been made.
