Milk provides Washington with
its foremost social paradox. All
the needy school children in the
city probably would receive free
milk during the coming school
year II it were not for one fact
Washington has provided some
needy school children with free
milk in the past.
The past free programs were
run by the city and financed
from funds appropriated for the
District, which could afford to
provide milk for only a portion
of the school children.
Now the Federal Government
has entered the school-milk pic
ture with a type of program de-
signed to make available to every
needy school child free milk, or
milk for no more than penny
a glass.
For three months the question
has been debated whether the
District will benefit from the
Federal program If the city had
never had a program, the answer
might be yes. But because
Washington has been pioneer
in providing children with milk,
the answer is not yet forth
coming. 1t is still a question.
Spent SIS, 900 Last Year.
Briefly, the reasons why there
is doubt whether the District will
share in the Federal program are
these:
The District last school year
spent $4,000 in buying 5000, 900
halt-pints of milk for distribution
to the needy school children.
The Federal program aims at
assisting the farmer who pro-
duces the milk. the child who
drinks the milk and the city
whose school system distributes
the milk.
The substitution of a Federal
program here for the existing
municipal school-milk program
would injure the farmer by low
ering his income.
Furthermore, the District con-
sumer has an interest in the mat
ter, because the milk surplus in
the Washington shed is so low
that any considerable diversion
of A,,iI will auou froy, tho NOR
NAL market conceivably could
but probably wouldn't-eliminate
the surplus altogether.
The farmer producing milk for
Washington has now all the mar
ket he needs Indeed. he is tx
horted constantly to make every
effort to increase his output for
the normal-as opposed to the
relief-consumer.
Farmers Side of Matter.
On a simple dollars and cents
basis, this is the farmers side
of the matter:
According to the terms of the
marketing order for the WASH
ton milkshed, the farmers must
accept a low price for milk dcs-
tined for distribution under a
Federal program to low-income
consumers.
The milk which enters the Dis
trict's school-milk program is
sold by the farmers to the dairies
at the standard price for what is
known as class milk, now, now
$3.57 q hundredweight ($3.17 a
hundredweight before the milk
order was amended a week ago).
The milk in a Federal low
cost program for the District is
sold by the farmers to the pro-
ducers for $2.395 a hundred

program into Washington. 1t is
calculated that this increase
would provide the farmer with
about the same income this year
he got last year from school milk.
Report Due Wednesday.
The Board of Education has
appointed a milk advisory COM
mittee directed to search for ways
of complying with the Agriculture
Departments requirements. The
committee is expected to report
this Wednesday at the Board of
Education meeting.
If the District did away with
It's school milk program altogeth-
er the farmers would lose what
they now get for that milk, and
then Washington probably would
be eligible for the Federal pro-
gram.
There probably is a compro-
mise.
1t has been suggested to the

More Warm Weather Due
As Brisk Spell Recedes

Holding back genuine fall weather
a few days longer, the Weather Bu-
reau forecast temperatures in the
Dos today and slightly warmer"
weather tomorrow.
While the bureau observatory pre-
dicted no prolonged hot periods were
In store, it was said that there was
still some warm weather coming.
Washington temperatures have
been known to climb to the high COS
even at the end of September, but
the Weather Bureau would make no
prophecies about that one way or
another.
Meanwhile, the bureau dug up
few statistics to prove-if proof is
needed-that this has been warm
year in the Capital. Ever since jan
uary l, degrees above the normal
have been piling up until the over
age total comes to 1863.
Contributing to the excess heat
was the April hot spell when the
temperature rose to 94 on the Goth
and, of more recent memory, the 90
reached last Wednesday.
The high yesterday was 10 de-
grees. The low was recorded at
$50 am. today at 81 degrees.

NPhotogenic Girls
Tolure Defense Cash
From D. T.. Pockets
Models Escape Admirers
To Open Stamps Drive
This Afternoon

The Defense savings stamp sales
campaign hit Washington squarely,
and most pleasantly, in the eye
today, as 20 photogenic and stream
lined Powers models from New York
came to town to open Retailers
for Defense Week"
Arriving at Washington National
Airport at 1890 am, the girls got
brief glimpse of the city-as much
as they could through the inter-
ference provided by the male pop
ulation trying to see them-and
prepared to sell Defense stamps at
the Mayf1ower Hotel this afternoon.
Privilege of making the first sale
of the day, however, was reserved
for Donald M. Nelson, executive d.
rector of the Supply Priorities and
ALLEGATIONS Board. Mr.. Nelson's
scheduled customer was Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt.
National Drive Initiated.
Ceremonies here initiated Ma
tion-wide sales promotion drive in
which more than a half million
stores are expected to join in selling
the savings stamps.
There were radio speeches of
greetings to the Powers models at
the airport. With all due respect
to the speakers, H. L. Rust, jr,
chairman of the Districts Defense
Savings Committee, and Henry w.
Voss. representing the Board Of
Trade, probably only the radio au-
dience heard what they said. Other
members of the welcoming party
were too busy looking.
Guards at the airport terminal
had some difficulty limiting the
welcoming party to its official mem
bership. Numerous young men
spectators tried to ease in as pho
tographers' assistants and whatever
else they could think Of.
Designated spokesmen for the
models was EN- Bowles Locker, a
brown-haired trick who would rest
anybody's camera, but she resented
the term chaperon.
I'm no chaperon, the girls don't
need any," she said. When all the
men about scoffed, she winked and
added, "Well, they don't need one
much. NY job is simply to keep
them together"
Miss Locker explained that her
first name, En-" was her fathers
abbreviation of Emaline.
Another name that gave reporters
trouble-or at least an excuse to
ask the young woman about it
was that Of Shirl Thomas. A state
ly red-head, Shirl said that was
not short for Shirley, but a family
name.
At luncheon, the models were
guests Of retailers headed BY Ralph
L. Goldsmith Of LAnsburghs and
including James Ha1dey Of Wood

Free Milk for Needy Chi|dren-Why or Why Not?

Agriculture Department that the
District continue its program and
that the Agriculture Department
induce the Federal Govern
ment to go with it side by side.
In that way the farmers would
be cared for and the needy chill
dren who do not now share in the
program would be aided.
The s55 900 spent by the Board
OF Education last year for milk
comes from the sponsors con-
tribution fund.-" appropriated by
Congress. 1t is likely that Con-
gress will continue to make this
fund available, so that the Dis
trict could keep on paying for
it's share in the school milk pro-
gram.
Pressed to Meet Demand.
The farmers could be assured
that the District would buy at the
market price up to $4,000 worth
of milk and that school milk be-
yond $4,000 worth would be
bought by the Federal Govern
ment under its program.
One factor in the reluctance OF
farmers to sacrifice their in
comes in the interest of school
children is that the Washington
market is large and the sales Of
dairymen are so great that they
are pressed to meet the ordinary
consumer demand.
As a result of the increase in
the city's population, the farmers
sales of class / milk rose from
14,430, ,439 pounds in July, 1910,
to 17,5l2,5l5 pounds in July,
1941.
This increase has nothing to do
with the British-aid program,
because almost all the milk pro-
duced by dairymen supplying
Washington is produced for
drinking, while milk for Britain
is milk for manufacture-cheese
and dried skim.
In order to bring about this
5000, 0,000-pound increase. farm
ers supplying Washington have
been forcing their COWS by high
protein feed and by taking calves
away from their mothers at an
early age in order to milk the
mothers for market.
Seven thousand new cows have
come into the Washington milk
shed.
Surplus Only IS Per Cent.
In areas where there is a large
surplus of milk, the farmers are
quicker to agree to participation
in social-minded programs. But
now the farmers here want to
make the most they can out of
what amounts to boom market
but a boom market for which
production costs are going up
because of the necessity of more
feed and the increased cost of
labor-and they do not want to
endanger their regular trade.
The surplus on the Washing
ton market has sunk to as low
as rs per cent, while dairy econ
omists figure that Is per cent
surplus is the lowest desirable
safe margin, to take care of con-
sumption variations.
The farmers in July accepted
the low-cost price Of $l99.5 for
1905 pounds sold as relief for
five cents a quart.
AS long as the intensive de-
mand for fluid milk continues to
exist in Washington, it is i'm
probable that the farmers would
agree to taking a cut in the
school milk.
