News Of Connecticut

Hartford, Conn, Nov. 27-(UP)- Ken E. Geyer, general manager of the Connecticut Milk Producers as- sociation, said today that demand upon the legislature to impose 8 sales tax on milk to finance sub sidy to producers would await the outcome of Washington confer ence between Governor Baldwin and federal authorities.
 The legislative council is reported to have such proposal under con- sideration for presentation at the special session of the General As- sembly in January.
 Geyer said that "the question as we see it, is to raise the price of milk and to cut down the quotas to about 90 per cent of the June volume"
 At the present time Geyer said about 20 per cent of Connecticut's milk supply Is imported, some as far west as Michigan and Wiscon- sin. Inasmuch as there is no OPA ceiling price for milk sold between dealers, some of the imported milk is obtained at a price about three cents quart above the ceiling per- mitted Connecticut producers.
 Producers who are compelled to import milk to supply their custom CTS, said Geyer, "are left holding the bag"

The Mothers Service Club was
organized,
For Service, Inspiration and
Prayer.
For our Blue Stars everywherel
To write letters-so highly priced,
Not only to our own each week
But also to servicemen,
Who have no folks to write them.
Cheerful letters that will keep
Cur boys encouraged and inform
ed
Of what is going on
While they are gone.
Never to write unpleasant news
That will worry or confuse,
For our boys have enough
troubles of their own,
Without worrying about the
folks at home.
Each day at noon to offer prayer.
That God will keep them in His
care.
And give them strength and
courage to bear
The daily tasks they're called to
share.
And that we too may carry on,
While our sons are gone,
And if It is His blessed will
To return our men,
Sound in mind and body,
When the war is done.
SO until then
1t is the Mothers Service plan
To do what ere we AN,
For our fighting mex.
we realize what ever we do,
will be 50 small,
Compared 20 our boys
Who are giving their all.
For me and for you.
If you have a son in service
We would like to haze you join
