Dairymen Must Control Own
Industry To Solve Price Problems
HARRISIIfcRO Dairy
farmers must build a strong
organization nnd “keep con
trol of It" If they are to end
turmoil In the nation's dairy
Industry, State Senator D.
Elmer Hawbaker told mem
bers of the Pennsylvania
Dairymen's Association Tues
day evening.
"Dairy farmers generally
throughout the country are
not participating in the af
fluence of present day so
ciety." Sen. Hawbaker de
clared at the association's
annual banquet, held at the
Penn Harris hotel in con
junction with the 50th State
Farm Show.
‘•ln many cases,” he de
clared, “the income level of
dairy farmers is actually
lower than the income of
families on public assistance.”
Turmoil in the industry,
be said, generally involves
the question of consumer
price controls. There is agi
tation to abolish price con
trol in states that have it.
States without controls have
considerable market unrest
and several are considering
ateps to establish controls.
Controversies also affect met
ropolitan markets operating
under federal orders.

Another disturbing factor,
he said, is the changing role
of dairy cooperatives that
were originally organized to
seek better prices for pro
ducers. “Many of these co
operatives have become
giant milk dealers, compet
ing against each other. In
stead of working for a better
price on behalf of producers,
they are cutting the price
against each other.’’
Some cooperatives, Sen.
Hawbaker declared, “actual
ly return a lower price to
members than is received by
non-members.”
