Md. The owner. Sam Cook, drives
to the dairy at Manassas. Va,
each night for a fresh supply
which he sells at 26 cents in
cartons and % cents in bottles,
plus a 10-cent deposit.
II haven't been able to sleep
since Wednesday," sighed Mr.,
Cook, who works all day in his
store and does the trucking at
night. He has sold about 1000
quarts since Wednesday.
On the Virginia side. the Open
Air Market at 1905 Wilson boule-
ward, Arlington, is selling about
4,800 quarts a day. The owner.
Phillip Dicken, makes four and
five trips to Manassas daily with
his truck to replenish supplies.
He gets % cents a quart, plus
a 10-cent deposit on bottles.
Many Stores Not Advertising.
Mr.. Dicken displays a big
MILK sign, although many
stores are not advertising their
stock-they figure there's too little
profit, and would prefer that their
regular customers buy such milk
as they obtain.
The Shirley Food Store, Co.
lumbia pike and Glebe road. Ar
lington, has a sign, "Yes We Have
Milk" and sells at % cents, plus
Ia Scent deposit on bottles. The
four Shirley stores in Arlington
are disposing of about $4,000
quarts daily. obtaining their sup
ply from Manassas.
A few customers are taking ad-
vantage of the difference in the
deposit requirements. They buy
milk at the Scent deposit stores
and turn the bottles back at places
which have a 10-cent rule.
Rationed in Some Groceries.
The two Food Fair stores in
Arlington are selling about 1000
quarts each daily, and limiting
each customer to one bottle. This
rule, however, is not general
throughout the area. Some stores
allow customers to take as many
as dozen bottles.
In some instances store pro-
prietors are buying milk at retail
and hauling it themselves to keep
regular customers supplied.
In Mt. Rainier, Md, q florist,
Steve Catalano. emptied his re-
frigerators of roses and bouquets
to make room for the milk which
he said he is selling at cost.
He has placed a sign on his
store, Milk For Babies in Here -
and averages about 500 quarts q
day.
Mr.. Catalano. his friends say,
personally hauls the milk to his

Rough Going Seen
' For Judge Switzer
BY the Associated Press

Carroll o. Switzer of Iowa re-
ceived support and hint of rough
going ahead yesterday in his bid
for Senate approval of his nomi-
nation as Federal District Judge
m Southern Iowa. =
The support came from 10 wit
nesses testifying ut q Senate Ju-
dietary subcommittee hearing on
the controversial appointment by
President Truman.
The hint of rough Shedding came
from Chairman McCarran of the
committee.
The Senator told Judge Switzer
that "in order to be confirmed
you are going to have to have con-
currence of your Senator'S"
In 18 years I have never known
a nominee to be confirmed who
was opposed by a Senator" from
his State, he added.
Judge Switzer'S nomination is
actively opposed by Senator Gill
lette, Democrat, of Iowa. Senator
McCarran announced at hearing
last April, when Senator Gillette
testified, that Senator Hicken-
looper, Republican. of Iowa, also
opposed the nomination.
Neither Iowa Senator attended
yesterdays hearing and there were
no opposition witnesses.
There was no indication when
the committee will act.
Judge SwitZer, unsuccessful
Democratic nominee for governor
in 1948, is now serving under a re-
cess, or temporary, appointment.
In opposing the nomination al
the April hearing, Senator Gillette
testified that there is strong evi.
dence" the appointment is the re-
suit Of political trafficking.
Witnesses appearing for Judge
Switzer yesterday praised him a.
hard-working. conscientious anc
honest judge.

Milk Drivers Wives
Talk With Negotiators
In Pittsburgh Strike
., the Assoeio,sd Pres.

PITTSBURGH, June 17.-Wives
of striking milkmen went to bat
with payroll receipts today to dis
prove reports that delivering milk
adds up to a fabulous income.
Meanwhile, the l0-day-old milk
strike droned on without a break.
The wives met with the negoti-
ating committee of the Greater
Pittsburgh Milk Dealers Associa-
tion, representing the 68 struck
companies in seven counties.
One woman injected that every
body's against the milkman, and
it's not his fault"
Long Hours Cited.
She said her husband. a whole
sale ice cream driver. averages 68
hours week. She added:
He made $4,000 last year. Is
that an exorbitant wage for re-
porting to work at 7 am. and
never getting home until z pm.?"
j. E. Davis. chairman of the
dealers committee, said the as
sociation has figures to prove that
the average retail milk driver
makes $405 a month.
Mrs. Hiland Moore said that
her husband, a milk driver, av-
eraged $276 a month-commis-
SiOns and all.
Public Pressure Only Weapon.
Public pressure appeared the
only weapon available to force a
break in the long milk tieup.
Meetings between the dealers and
the AFL Milk and Ice Cream
Driver Statesmen and Dairy EN-
ployes are still deadlocked. The
issues are arbitration, 40 hours
work for 48 hours pay, a raise in
the daily minimum from $40 to
$3.50 and retroactive pay.

generally are going milkless, even
where children require it as a

Loss Over SIS Million
In Ohio Flash Flood;
Pottery Plant Burns
BY the Assoeiofed Press

CROOKSVILLE, Ohio, June II.
"A flash flood rolled down a mar
row Southeastern Ohio valley last
night, leaving one dead and dam
age estimated at more than SIS
million.
The water, piled up by a near
cloudburst, caused the explosion
of q pottery kiln, destruction of
a pottery plant by fire, failure of
power over wide area and flowed
into seven towns and villages.
Pottery damage is estimated
at 81 million. The Ohio Power
Co. sets damage to its substation
in. Crooksville at $250.000. The
mayor of Roseville said his citizens
faced loss of $250.000.
Hundreds Forced To Flee.
But, these preliminary estimates
did not take into account the
many inundated homes and busi-
ness places in other communities
and on farms.
Druggist Edgar Souders said
THE water rose four feet in
20 minutes"
A four-hour downpour last
night sent Jonathan and Moxa-
hala Creeks out of their banks
over q 25-mile square mile area
in Muskingum, Perry and Morgan
Counties.
The water poured down a mar
row valley and forced hundreds
to flee from their homes. 1t ran
seven feet deep through this town
of about 5000, but eased to about
two feet by midday.
800 Employed at Plant.
Mrs. Alice Adrian, IS, drowned
In Rose Farm, village about five
miles from here. Rescuers re-
covered her body. Five homes
there were destroyed and resi-
dents of 80 others were forced
to evacuate.
Other towns hardest hit by
the deluge we're Roseville, another
pottery center; Tropic, White Cot
tage. Saltillo and Fultonham.
Most are mining villages.
The flood exploded at hot kiln
and set the Acme Pottery Co.
plant here afire. Firemen couldn't
reach the plant because of the
high water and it burned. Supt.
Harold Shower said loss may
run to 81 million. The plant
employed 800 workers.
A kiln also exploded at the
CrooksWlle China Co., but the
plant escaped major damage.
