ford, the Mitchell Company has agreed to a truce which will not permit the distribution of the milk in paper bottles outside of Water bury and the Naugatuck Valley un- til a decision is reached by Milk Administrator Buckingham.
 The latter has asked Attorney General Edward J. Daly to give him an opinion on the powers that he can use and has been informed that he cannot differentiate between bottles used by dealers distributing milk. However, Administrator Buckingham under the rule of the milk board of the state can raise the price of milk one cent per quart if it is sold in free containers. This step may be taken to stop the free bottle all along the line.

great were the crowds Of enthusiastic
