Inter-State Local TRY A CLASSIFIED AD
Holds Meeting
Gosc to 300 members and
guests turned out for the
annual meeting in Mount Joy
on Thursday of District 7,
Inter-State Milk Producers
Cooperative. At the meeting,
they heard from a number of
speakers and elected officers
for the coining year in each
of the five locals within the
district.
Daniel Martin, Inter-
State’s vice-president and a
dairyman from Manheim,
told the group about the work
their cooperative was doing
on their behalf. He
enumerated the steps
leading up to the decision
last month by Secretary of
Agriculture Earl Butz to
boost milk price supports to
80-percent of parity.
Martin said that Inter-
State had led the battle to get
higher prices. He reminded
the group that their co-op
had organized the peaceful
march on Washington in
November. He said that
while the march didn’t result
directly in a price boost, he
was confident that it was an
important factor behind the
decision to finally raise the
support price.
Martin also noted that
Inter-State members were
presently receiving cost of
production adjustments over
Federal Order 4 prices, and
that these payments were
secured from the co-op’s 21
dairy customers by monthly
negotiations. He said these
kinds of activities needed
and deserved the support of
the membership.
Boyd Gartley, the co-op’s
director of member and
public relations, also told the
members about some of the
things the staff has been
doing to secure better milk
prices for farmers.
Other speakers were Earl
Stauffer, Ephrata, who gave
a delegate’s report on the
annual Inter-State meeting
in Philadelphia, and Andrew
Marvin, Ephrata, the
District 7 fieldman.
In his speech, Daniel
Martin announced that the
annual Inter-State meeting
this year would be held on
Nov. 25-26 at the Host Farm
in Lancaster.
Honored during the
meeting were Mr. and Mrs.
Elvin T. Hamish, Willow
Street Rl, who have been
members of Inter-State for a
quarter of a century.

and directors from the five
locals were held during the
