Mutual Housing Group.
Al Greenbe|t |ndorses.
Purchase Negotiations

The directors board of the Green
belt Mutual Housing Association
today had authorization Of its
membership to enter into a formal
contract with a private home devel-
opment firm, which would conduct
negotiations with the Federal Gov
ernment in connection with the
anticipated sale Of the town next
year.
The go-ahead signal was given
last night by more than 400 mem
bers, who attended a special meet
ing Of the year-old group in the
town school. Association figures
show about 900 Greenbelt families
are members.
Other Proposals Backed.
A sweeping majority vote on a res
olution drafted by the nine-member
board supported the following addi-
tional' proposals:
/. That the board take immediate
steps to obtain charter for a
mutual home ownership corpora
ton, which would supplant the pres
ent association. The proposed
corporation would carry out the
initial purpose of the group to give
residents first change at huying
Greenbelt homes. 5qgF
2.-That association members, on
payment of a $40 fee, within IS days
after the formation of the new corp
grafton, become charter members
entitled to receive such preferences
and privileges as may be prescribed
in the bylaws"
Immediate Steps Urged.
The vote was taken after a brief
report by Sherrod East, association
president, who emphasized that pre-
liminary moves by Government
housing agencies show immediate
steps on the part of residents are
necessary to protect their own In
terests in the sale of Greenbelt
homes.
I'VE must act as group so that
the disruption of town life ano
enterprise will be kept at MINI
mum when the Government disposes
of Greenbelt," Mr.. East told the
gathering.
He declared the greatest financia,
savings would be possible through

serving both. white and colored. The
total amount spent by these agencies
is about 81 100000.
OF these agencies. some report as

Decision Is Expected
Within 10 Days on
Hiqher Milk Price

A decision on whether washington
area milk prices will go up probably
will be forthcoming within 10 days,
it was indicated today.
The Virginia Milk Commission has
under advisement the request of the
Maryland-Virginia Milk Producers
Association for an increase which
would result in at least cent-a-
quart increase in the retail price.
District and nearby Maryland prices
generally follow Virginia prices and
are expected to go up.
DR.. T. r. Snavely, milk commi-
sion head, told The Star today that
his group will meet in Richmond
the first of next week and that a
decision probably will be made
shortly thereafter. The commission
recently granted increases in two
other Virginia areas. possibly fore
casting approval of the request for
rise in the nearby Virginia area.
Bread Prices Go Up.
Meanwhile, bread prices in many
Washington stores increased a cent
yesterday following the rise in ba-
kers' prices. The Safeway chain,
huEever, has not yet raised its price
aiid would not say whether it plans
to do so. :
Roll prices were up cents a doz-
en-, the Schneider Baking Co. an
nounced.
Two Washington bakeries have
ended the practice of selling bread
on consignment, but a check OF
others indicated no unanimity on
the plan. Those taking action are
Rice's Bakery and the Schneider
firm. Manager Lewis G. Graeves of
the latter company said. however,
he was not certain his firm could
continue if others do not follow
suit.
Usually Leave Extra Bread.
Normally bakeries allow their
statesmen to leave extra bread with
grocers, taking back the unsold
bread the next day. Some Of these
returns 60 to breadcrumbS out most
is turned into animal feed.
Freeman H. Sission, head of the
Wonder Bakery of the Continental
Baking Co., said his firm has been
reducing its total baking and that
there is virtually no wastage' at
present. He said the concern will
not specifically end consignment
selling, however. Returns at pres
ent are made up chiefly of damaged
loaves, he said.
Another baking official, who asked
that his name not be used, sale
that there is considerable appre.
hension of prosecution under the
antitrust laws If all the bakers gel
together to cut out consignment
selling.
