SURPRISES

The way is not clear regarding the
disposal Of surplus crops. Secretary
Wallace thought, at first, to sell his
excesses abroad. But the foreigners
thought differently. as they had their
own farmers to consider-so the
business didn't turn out we'll. Now.
it is suggested that the whole crop
control program may be overhaul
ed and that agricultural products
will be sold to our own needy peo-
pie at bargain prices. Washington
hears great deal of criticism of the
Wallace farm plan. all because the
prophecies didn't come through.

BOTH SIDES BACK
MILK MEDIATION
Diaries, Drivers Willing to
Have Hazen Arrange
Truce Farley.

Both sides in the strike threat con-
troversy existing between IL local
milk distributing concerns and the
Milk Wagon Drivers Union expressed
a willingness today to participate in
any mediation conferences which
might be arranged by District Com
missioner Melvin c. Hazen.
Possibility of intervention by the
Commissioner developed late yesterday
when Mr.. Hazen disclosed he would
discuss the stalemate between the
workers. and operators at the next
meeting of the board Tuesday
Informed of this development, a
spokesman for the distributors ex-
pressed approval and added:
I'VE are always willing to nego-
tiate further"
Representatives of the union took a
similar position. declaring:
I'VE would be glad to have COM
missioner Hazen sit in on our next
conference with the distributors"
In a written statement today. the
union said it would welcome a survey
of the situation by board of media
ton and that it believed such board
would be inclined to grant 'even
greater increases than we are demand
ing" The union said its only objec-
ton to such mediation would be 1.-The
amount of time lost and the cost
involved.
After ALL it stated this matter
must be concluded by June g."
As vet the next conference has
not been arranged.
On Thursday night the union men,
bership voted, 661 to l76, to strike
on June if the operators failed to
meet demands for an increased pay
scale in a new contract. Under the
present contract base scales range
from S2l to $3.50 weekly for about
LOO workers affected. The union is
asking an increase of SO per week
for all scales.
During negotiations which have
been underway since about April l.,
several revisions in the present con-
tract have been agreed on. but the
operators have refused fatty to grant
any increase in the wage scales. At
hastily called meeting yesterday
they reaffirmed this position.
