 Auto Chase

Milton c. Goldman, 20, of 29 Col umbia Boulevard, Waterbury, was the quarry in a spectacular police chase whichc ended in his capture on three motor vehicle charges in New Haven last night.
 The youth was chosed by squad car from the Hamden bank to Ivy street New Haven before he was nabbed by Officers Robert s. Thacher and George H. Meinsen at Dixwell avenue and Ivy street.
 Police said the youth was first observed passing a traffic light at Dixwell and Putnam avenues at an excessive rate of speed and contin- ued down the avenue, narrowly missing several persons as he pass ed standing trolley at an intersec- tion.
 The pursuing patrol car clocked Goldman at speeds far in excess of the limits posted on the avenue. Be- sides speeding, he was charged with passing the trolley, and the red light, l..

Stabilization Plan Endorsed By City's
 Leading Distributors
Change-PriCe War Averted By Action of State #@ Milk Administrator Buckingham

State Milk Administrator s. Me- Lean Buckingham announced from Hartford today that Q price stabili- zation schedule for the sale of milk, decided on after a public hearing here early this week, will become eff fective Monday Prices which have been in effect will remain, except for milk sold in stores in paper con- tainers, which will cost one cent more than that sold in bottles.
 In announcing the effective date for the price schedule, Administra- tor Buckingham declared that "a price war" would work against the best interests of all concerned. Data from many sources shows that paper containers are more expensive than bottles, he said, and a one-cent diff ferential should be established.
 A 25 In Favor
 Twnty-flve of 30 persons attending the hearing conducted by MT. Buck ingharn here Monday night favored the stabilization plan. The princi- pal opposition came from Edward McElligott, president of R. F. Wor- den G Sons, Inc, who clashed with the administrator over the price question.
 The price of Grade B milk deliv- cred at homes will be IA cents quart; Grade A, IT cents a quart; heavy cream, 9 cents half pint; medium cream, 19 cents a half pint; and light cream, 15 cents a half pint Store prices are one cent under the schedules established for home de- livery. Under the ruling, charge of five cents per container must be made by stores for milk sold in glass bottles and each container will be redeemable for five cents upon its return. Milk in paper containers will cost one cent more than the minimum prices for each class and grade of milk or cream.
 "The prices established in this ruling are the same which have pre- vailed in other markets of the state for some time," MT. Buckingham said, in making the announcement They have proven satisfactory to each part of the industry and to the consumers in those areas where they haze prevailed. Tn setting producer prices. the administration is guided by the best figures obtainable on the cost of production. Milk control in Connecticut was created for the pro- tection of the consumer, to assure an adequate supply of wholesome milk at 6 price commensurate with the costs of production and distribu- tion; and for the protection and stabilization of producer prices.
 Prices Affected
 ~The administration has been res luctant to establish resale prices un- less conditions threatened to become so unsettled as to affect the returns of the producers It has been our experience that where the dealer does not obtain sufficient resale price to cover costs of distribution it Is not long before pressure is brought to bear on the producer to
The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-03-15

accept lower prices for his product, without regard to his cost of pro- duction.
 "This administration has conduct ed several surveys into the cost of distribution and has gathered the bes tobtainable information on the costs of production. The figures ob- tained in these surveys indicate that the cost of production and distribu- tion of a quart of Grade B milk is within 8 small fraction of IA cents. These figures are based on the dis tribution of milk in glass bottles. h. formation has been soughgt from many sources on the cost of distri- button of milk in paper containers and the authorities are agreed that it is more expensive to distribute milk in these containers than in glass bottles. According to surveys price increase of at least one cent would be necessary to cover the ad- ditional cost to the dealer of distri- button by this method where both paper and glass are handled in the same plant.
 'No dealer could long continue to pay the established price to his pro- ducers if permitted to operate on an unsound basis. Distribution figures obtained by the administrator have permitted the administrator to set resale prices at figure which al- ready requires the dealer to operate his plant in an efficient manner in order to make a profit. The admin stration does not feel that the con- sumner would require that the inter- ests of the producer be jaopardized and the farmers purchasing power curtailed by permitting a price war from which they themselves would not, in the long run, benefit.
 Quotes Preamble
 '"rhe preamble to the Milk Con- trol act declares that milk is ne- cessary article of human food and its production and marketing in this state is a business vitally affecting the public health and interest. It. calls attention to the fact that when here is a considerable disparity be- tween milk prices, and other com- modities, the agrcultural assets sup porting in part the credit structure of the state would be seriosly im- paired"

Judge Conway Nielus War Time
 Precautions On Winter Cruise
Sees Camouaagd French Ship Running Allowed British Isle No Closeups of
 Local Jris Home From Visit

'"The most impressive event of the two weeks trip was the sight of camouf1aged French ship glid- ing at dusk into the harbor of Barranquilla, Colombia, on mis- sion to pick up French nationals for war service"
 The speaker was City Court Judge Theobald E. Conway, inter viewed in the court chambers to- day. The judge sailed Feb. 28 with his twelve-year-old. son, James T., on the United Fruit liner "Chir- ique," which touched at Jamaica, Panama, and South American ports, and docked in New York last night.
 "War Paint'
 'The ship was painted in dull, fiat tones blending with the dusk and slipped into the harbor al- most invisibly to gets its cargo of seven or eight Frenchmen. A crowd was gathered on the pier to see the men of. It was large crowd, waiting silently while the men climbed aboard. Then, as the ship started out to sea again the crowd burst into the ''Marsel- laise." <,
 "1t was night, and there were no lights on the French ship. It slipped out of sight almost irnfne- diately.
 Another thing that impressed us at BalTanquilla was the extreme poverty of most of the inhabitants as compared with the United States. It struck my boy particu- larly.
 "On the other hand" the judge said, "one can't help noticing the possibilities of South America. It has come a long way, but there is 50 much still to do, so many pos- abilities"
 "The Best Deap
 Asked whether he had talked to anyone about the Pan-American policies of cooperation, the judge replied that he had spoken to one Colombian who told him tersely:
 For us it's a matter of where we can get the best deal"
 In this connection, the judge said he noticed in Barranquilla a rayon factory in process of con- struction. He said he saw several crates of machinery, believed to be looms, which bore the stamp, Made in Worcester, Mass"
 The judge noted that there had been considerable German influ- ence in Colombia. 'The Skadta airlines, for example, were run by Germans. Now, however they have been taken over by Colombia, but my own opinion is that they have been taken, over only on the sur- face"
 Allies Favored
 The judge said E was very diffi- cult in short time to get an im- presSion of the feelings of Colom- bianS in the present European war, but the inquiries he was able to make led him to believe the feeling was pro-Allied.
 We saw no German ships at all during the cruise" the judge said. Most of the ships we encountered were Norwegian. We also saw a few British freighters."
 Judge Conway, replying to a question regarding the conditions aboard his ship. praised the eff ciency of the crew and officers, who, he said, gave passengers feeling of security by being always lon the job". He said they had several life boat drills during the trip, and the crew went through two or three fire drills.
 When I donned a life-saver," the judge said T noticed that 1t was stamped with dates of inspection. The last date on mine was January, l94O."
 The judge also observed that the American flag flown on the stern

DE VALERA MAY
 COME OVER SOON

Dublin, March 15-(UP)-Premier Ramon de Valera of Fire, who last year postponed a scheduled visit to the United States because of the European situation, hopes to make the visit soon, it was indicated today.
 Since it appears possible that there will be general elections in Fire this year it was believed that De Valera would speed his plans to go to the United States so that he could make the visit as premier and not as pri- vate individual, as would be neces- sary in event elections went against his government.

 Judge Conway, well-bronzed said the weather was fine during the cruise. When informed that the last two weeks in Waterbury have not been blessed with best in wealth. CT, the judge said he knew it, and explained that an officer of his boat had heard a radio commenta- tor describe the sleet storm which hit New England and blacked-out Waterbury.
