Municipal
Milk Price
Restudied

District of1icials may reach a
compromise with Sealtest Dairy
on the question of acceptable
prices for selling milk to the
city.
On Monday. Rexford q.
Vessels. the District procure
ment officer. reported that a low
bid Of $1.2 million from the
dairy to supply municipal milk
needs for the next nine months
was too high. This amount. he
said. tops the price now being
paid by about 100000. or 8
per cent.
But after a conference yes
terday with dairy officials, Mr..
Vessels said he had been con-
vinced that the bid was not
out Of line after all as far as
the price offer for half pints of
milk was concerned.
Under this portion Of the
bid, the dairy would supply
about 1873 million half pintS
for about $685. 900, a jump of
about $4,000 over the figure
in the current contract. For
each half pint, the price would
go up from .O587 cents to .O623
cents.
Mr.. Vessels explained that
he had changed his mind after
dairy representatives pointed
out that the city paid .0625
cents under a contract during
the nine-month period, prior
to the current one.
On the other hand, Mr..
Vessels reported. dairy officials
agreed at the conference yes
terday to reconsider the price
offer on the other major item
in the bid. supplying about
129,0 gallons of milk.
Sealtest's offer was to sell at
84.15 cents, an increase of al
most 20 cents over the current
65.66 cents. This adds up to a
difference of about $4,000.
Dairy products which the city
buys go to school children and
