Senate Ag Comm.

“From my experience in
fighting for and obtaining lower
milk prices in New Jersey, I
know that Pennsylvania con
sumers can save between $6O and
$BO million per year on their milk
bills,” Sandfort said. The
statement received a favorable
reception from James McHale,
Pennsylvania Secretary of
Agriculture, and Harry Kapleau,
chairman of the Pennsylvania
Milk Marketing Board. It was not
so favorably received by
members of the Senate ag
committee, most of whom are
known to oppose the lifting of
controls.
A number of the senators
questioned Sandfort’s math, at
least one openly attacked his
reasoning.
One objection to Sandfort’s
testimony was raised by Henry
Geisinger, executive vice
president of the Pennsylvania
Association of Milk Dealers.
Geisinger said that while Louden

Hill Farms stores may be
charging less for milk, they are
charging more for other items,
and thereby not saving the
consumer any money. Geisinger
said he had visited Sandfort’s
stores recently, and boughteight
brand name items - mustard,
corn flakes, soup, coffee, soap,
etc. - for which he paid $3.81. He
then went to a nearby chain store,
bought the identical items, and
paid $3.24, or 57-cents less, a
savings of nearly 18 percent.
Others speaking in opposition
to the bill and in favor of 'the
present milk marketing law
included Chester Heim,
representing the Pennsylvania
Farmers Association, J. W.
Deisley, president of Moore
Dairy, Lancaster, A. J. Nixon,
vice-president of Penn Dairies,
Louis Galliker, Kalliker’s Dairy
Products, Johnstown, and Fred
Dewey, president of Harrisburg
Dairies.
The pro side was represented
by Dr. C. W. Pierce, professor of
agricultural economics at Penn
IN STOCK
State, and was supposed to have
been represented too by Mssrs.
McHale and Kapleau, who gave
up their time so that the com
mittee could hear testimony from
the entire senior class at Abin
gton Heights High School
The students, from the
Scranton area, spoke out against
retail price fixing, and proposed
a number of reasons for their
stand. They had, they said,
looked at both sides of the issue
and come up with a logical
solution. At least one observer
commented that he felt the group
had been unduly influenced by
Sandfort and by a nutritionist
from the state ag department.
Pierce, in his testimony, said
that price controls support ex
pensive home delivery routes by
keeping store prices artificially
high. In-store consumers, he felt,
should not be made to subsidize
home deliveries. Pierce also felt
that eliminating controls would
not result in ruinous price wars.
In general, those who opposed
the present milk marketing law
say that consumer prices would
fall under a new law. Those who
favor keeping the old law
maintain that the law would work
if it were properly administered.
Dare to be different when it’s
time to concoct a tempting sand
wich! Spread slices of toast with
butter and place a lettuce leaf
and several slices of cooked bone
less smoked pork shoulder on
each. Top each -with two table
spoons cranberry sauce and two
tablespoons mayonnaise.
Without Thawing
Frozen meat can be cooked
without tawing, but it will take
from % to % more time.
