false and grossly misleading
statements.
One such statement which
misinformed the public was -
“Two former directors who
have resigned in disgust”.
Harold Rote of Waynesboro,
Pa, one of the directors
referred to in the article
“Eastern In Trouble, ex
directors say,” in a later
conversation with Eastern’s
general manager, refuted
the statemnt and said, “I am
not an ex-director”. Rote
was very upset at this point.
In another, it was printed
that Eastern “may be
heading down a road
towards financial in
solvency”. According to
Rote, this was a misquote,
and that what he actually
said was “Eastern Milk
Producers had financial
problems”. Max Lonstein,
treasurer of Eastern,
stressed that Eastern Milk
Producers is solvent. Only
because of the vast amounts
of dairy products in storage
has Eastern experienced as
cash flow problem. No
member’s milk check is m
jeopardy and the
cooperative is not m debt.
The only defector from
Eastern’s policy-making
body, and the other director
to whom many of
these statements were at
tributed, was Harold Billings
from Vermont, He
alledgedly said that Eastern
was “forcing them (buyers)
to pay inflated prices”.
McDonald charged that this
is ridiculous and Billings and
the entire dairy industry
know it. Billmg’s remark
that “the members are
getting npped off”, was also
labeled in the same manner
by McDonald.
Rote, who did not hand in
his resignation was
disturbed over the article's
quote “they better turn
things around soon ” What I
did say was that Eastern can
turn things around and solve
its financial problems,” in
formed Rote. He also stated
that he told the news service
that the principle cause of
Eastern’s problems was
surplus milk, not Boaid
policy as reported in the
story. •

refutes
The statement, “An
organization cannot run
rampant over its members”,
which the article said
Billings made, evidently
pertains to some of Billings’
current activities in the
State of Vermont, noted
Eastern’s president, Arden
Tewksbury.
The Cooperative leader
said that people who are
trying to divide and injure
present cooperatives are
playing a very dangerous
game with the destiny of
dairy farmers - they should
be prepared to answer for
the resulting chaos and
injury they may cause.
