Cent-a-Quart
Milk Price Rise
In Prospect
Amendment to Grunt
Increase to Producers
Drown by FDA

Residents of the District area were
put on notice today Of a prospective
cent-a-quart increase in the price
of milk in this area
The Agriculture Department an
nounced that the Food Distribution
Administration has drafted proposed
amendments to the Federal milk
marketing order which would grant
the farmers rise of 40 cents hum
dred pounds in the price they re-
ceive for milk in this area.
That would mean an increase of
slightly less than ! cent a quart to
consumers. The FDA also was re-
ported to have decided to allow an
increase of 80 cents a hundred
pounds in the price of milk sold for
manufacturing uses.
All milk produced in this area,
under the proposed amendments,
would be considered Glass |, to be
bottled and sold. That would assure
Washington of an adequate milk
supply, officials declared.
Limit on Glass Now
AT present, producers are limited
in the amount of Glass | milk they
may sell. All milk over the quota
is considered Glass milk, for which
they get a lower price.
Public hearings were held last
month on the proposed amendments
The FDA announced that it would
be possible to fill exceptions to the
order through March l.
The proposed new prices would
raise the cost of Glass l fluid milk
from base price of s3,57 to $3.97,
The Maryland and Virginia Milk
Producers Association had asked
for an increase of SO cents a hum
dred pounds.
The FDA said the increases were
expected to maintain or slightly in
crease the present level of produce
ton
The proposed increases were
viewed as justified on the basis of
testimony that wages paid here
have increased 81 per cent, feed
costs, A per cent, and everything
else purchased by farmers, 25 per
cent since January, 1941.
Rise Previously Permitted.
During the same period the price
of Glass l milk has increased only
II per cent and the average price
to farmers for all milk only 26 per
cent, 1t was said.
The FDA said it was expected that
all milk produced here would be
allocated to Glass /, with the pos
sible exception of small amount
in May and June, the peak months
of production.
Officials said milk supplies prob
ably will be brought in from out
side the normal milkShed during 10
months of the year. During 1912,
milk was shipped into the WASH
ington market from Pennsylvania,
Ohio, New York and Wisconsin.
Normally, all milk in this area
comes from farms in Maryland and
| Virginia.
After exceptions are considered
by the department, tentatively ap-
proved amendments to the order
may be submitted to farmers and
| handlers for approval.
