4. Consumers will help the campaign to reduce Fed
eral taxes levied to buy up dairy SURPRISES Expert
ence proves that free enterprise reduces dairy
SURPRISES.
5. Consumers will enjoy better quality of milk.
Under free enterprise system, diaries and farmers
have an incentive to use the most modern equip
ment and methods thereby giving their customers
fresher, purer, higher quality milk.
Farmers will also benefit under system of free enter
prise. It will help them to acquire more stable and
ever-increaSing income. When retail price controls
are removed and prices find their economic levels,
milk consumption increases rapidly Farmers benefit
in two ways First, through the actual increase in
percentage of their milk is sold in fresh fluid form.
This is Class milk which is the real proft-maker for
the farmer. It brings him much higher price than
milk used for other purposes such as cottage cheese
and powdered milk.
It has always been Highs policy to pay farmers higher
than-average prices Highs modern, efficient system
of processing and distribution in large reusable glass
jugs reduces COSTS Highs shares these savings with
the consumer and the farmer This is why price is
low in free markets And this is why we always pay
our farmers premium for their milk
Diaries benefit, too, from free enterprise When a
dairy has the incentive to modernize its operations and
take advantage OF new processes and greater eff
fciency, it can improve the quality of its milk and
lower its prices to permit people to drink all the milk
milk and even at the lower price, it can earn fair
profit.
It's time for the consumers the farmers and the diaries
of Northern Virginia to enjoy the fruits Of Amer
lean system It's time to give free enterprise chance.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-08-23

Consumers in Northern Virginia are going to get
break at last 1t looks though high-fixed retail
milk prices will be abolished. You should soon be
enjoying free market. Here's why: The Federal
Milk Marketing Order recently established for the
Washington market includes Northern Virginia This
order protects farmers by following formula for set
ting fair price for their milk Consequently, the
Virginia Milk Commission has already removed its
control of prices paid to farmers.
But prices are still controlled at the retail level On
Hearing to determine whether or not retail price
controls should be abolished in the Arington-Alex
andria market the Manassas market, and the part
of the Fredericksburg market which is geographically
located in Prince William County. This hearing will
be held in the George Mason Hotel in Alexandria on
August q, 1000 am. (EDST).
Now with farmers protected by the Federal Govern
men there isn't single reason for maintaining retail
price controls.
Highs believes it is in the public interest for the Milk
from Nothern Virginia. The people will benefit in
many ways under system of free enterprise:
l. Consumers will enjoy lower prices. Consumers in
Washington, for example, are paying Ice less per
gallon than the price in Northern Virginia. At an
average consumption rate of one gallon per day,
Washington family can save $5840 year.
2. Consumers will drink more milk Government
statistics prove that people drink more milk when
prices are lower, and enjoy the benefits of better
health and nutrition.
g. Consumers will be relieved of the expense of ad-
ministering the State Milk Commission price con-
troll program. At the present time this amounts
to 1c per gallon added to the consumers price.

Hundreds have been arrested

The most frequently mentioned
charge was theft Of state

The papers said trials are

Charges include sabotage, IL

resisting farm collectivization,
distributing anti Communist
leaflets and teaching sedition
IN Roman Catholic churches
and seminaries.
A high point in the campaign
came in late February when
