Fowler Says Request Awaited
On Institution Personnel

proves, the request will go to the
Civil Service Commission.
The new positions for the Indus
trial Home School will provide a
basic pattern for .reclassfying per-
sonnel in all children's institutions
Mr. Huff said.
Mr.. Sl1aw's committee recon-
menoed immediate reclassifcatio OF
personnel at the Receiving Home for
Children, $500 Little Falls road NV.
in report published yesterday.
Asked If he thought immediate
submission of an application on the
Receiving Home would speed re-
classification, Mr.. Huff said: II
doubt it. I believe one action will
suffice"
He admitted it was technically
true" that he eventually will have to
submit separate application on
every position but said acceptance
will be simple matter once new
ratings for work with children are
established.
Separation Delayed.
Ml NOildW SdlU IL WOulu pe ullu-
cult to separate delinquent from
nondelinquent children at the re-
iceiving home, a major recommenda-
ton of his committee, until the re-
claSsiflca ton is obtained.
Boys are sent out into the yard
at one time, girls at another. They
sit around with nothing con-
Istructive to keep them occupied
They should be kept busy constant
ly. 1t will require trained recrea-
ton and social leaders to give them
more than custodial care"
The superintendents of all the in
Istitutions are doing their best, but
are hamstrung by inadequate staffs,
he commented. Mr.. Shaw said
Daniel Ahern, who resigned Mon
day as superintendent of the Wis
consin avenue school, took a lot of
punishment in his desperate efforts
to hold the situation together"
Il don't see how he stood it as
long as he did," Mr.. Shaw added.
Although I don't know his reasons
for resigning, I can say that he
struggled with a most discouraging
situation"

Shortage eof Milk
In District Area
Expected Soon
Agriculture OfficioIs
Hope to Squeeze By
Without Controls

An Agriculture Department Of
fetal today reported an "unprece-
dented" increase in milk consump-
ton in East and Northeastern States
as a spokesman for the Maryland
and Virginia Milk Producers Asso-
citation warned of a shortage In the
Washington area in a matter of
days.
The Official said the milk crisis
may continue until the first of the
year but that the department hoped
to squeeze through" without REIN
stating war food order 70 controlling
milk quotas, lifted after vi day.
On top of Is per cent wartime
increase in milk consumption, milk
and dairy product use has increased
another 8 per cent since restrictions
on use of heavy cream and amounts
OF butterfat used in ice cream were
removed, he said
Some Products to Leave Market.
Bruce B. Derrick, manager of the
Maryland & Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers' Association, predicted cot
tage cheese, buttermilk and
chocolate milk would go off the
market by the week end as milk
supplies drop seasonally and con-
sumption rises.
The Once of Price Administra-
tion, he said, has been asked to
adjust prices to allow milk handlers
to import" milk from outside the
Washington milkshed and thus ell
leviate the shortage.
An OPA spokesman said the
agency was considering a price pro-
posal from producers on the pur-
chase of milk from a large manu-
facturer with plants in Indiana and
Ohio. He pointed out that the
problem was complicated because
milk also is scarce in some metro
politan areas in those States and
that moving milk here might COM
plichte the supply elsewhere.
80 Per Cent Rise in September.
George Irvine, Washington milk
marketing administrator, estimated
milk consumption here in September
rose 91a per cent over the same
period last year. He said figures for
october were not ready but pre-
dicted possible increase.
Mr.. Irvine added that 1t might
be four weeks or more before the
situation eases. Some distributors,
he said. are unable to give Gus
toners a fair share of milk every
day. This is particularly true for
restaurants.
The Agriculture Department off,
cial pointed out that New York
City's Board of Health had been
forced to ban the use of heavy cream
so that more milk would 60 into
other uses. A similar situation exists
in Boston and elsewhere. he said
