A recommendation for re-
sumption of Federal marketing
controls for milk in the Wash
ington area appeared unlikely
today to result in any increase
in retail milk prices.
william B. Hooper, general
manager of the Maryland and
Virginia Milk Producers Asso-
citation, said 1t would be "highly
improbable" that the proposed
floor price on purchases from
dairymen would boost the retail
figure.
S5.55 Recommended
A special study committee
has recommended an average
year-round minimum payment
of $3.50 per hundredweight to
Washington area dairy farmers
for Class I milk. The recon-
mendation, whose details had
been made known previously,
was formally presented yester-
day at hearings being held by
the Agriculture Department,
which has the final say on the
restoration Of Federal controls.
Staley B. Brinkley, jr., gen.
eral manager Of Highs Dairy
Products Corp, which is OPP
posing the recommendation,
left open the possibility of a
shift in prices at the retail
level.
Asked whether the proposed
minimum price to dairymen
could eventually result in an
increase boost at the consumer
level, he said:
Reason for Opposition
TITS hard to say. It's a
complicated thing that's highly
technical. 1t could be that
the price could go either way"

They have been promised that
their plan will receive serious
attention.
At present Government work.
ers are entitled to carry life
insurance in the amount Of the
upper thousandth Of their SAL
airy. For example, an employee
earning $4,000 a year has a
$4,000 life insurance policy,
while an employee who makes
$4,000 a year is covered by a
$4,000 life insurance policy.
Various employee leaders pro-
pose that employees in the lower
salary brackets be given the
opportunity to carry life insur-
ance policies Of $4,000 or even
higher. as long as they pay the
required premiums. The pre-
riiums are rs cents per pay day
per $1,000 worth Of coverage.
The argument is made that
lower-salaried employees are
just as much in need, If not
more so, than higher-bracket
employees in protecting their
families with adequate life in
surance protection. And ex-
tending them the chance to OBJ
tain more life insurance cover
age if they are willing to pay
the added premiums, would not
cost the Government very
much in the way of added ex-
penditures, it is pointed out.
