Eastern
(Continued from Page Al)
also urges members to call
the Co-op and voice their
support of Stanley ,Korona,
who was elected President at
the Co-op’s annual meeting
two weeks ago.
Supporters of the ad
vertising campaign say they
are fed the reblends
and assessments which have
clouded the Co-op’s financial
history m the past several
years.
Korona’s supporters say
they feel a show of broad
based backing for the new
President will strengthen his
hand when he presents his
reform measures at the
Board meeting.
In the ads members are
urged to contact Lisle Dutton
rather than the Co-op’s
General Manager Howard
McDonald.
Korona said he feels it is
important the Co-op be on its
way to sound financial
footing by the October
delegate meeting.
He said he was unwilling to
blame current problems on
any one person but added,
“We must take some drastic
steps.”
He said members have
indicated they are willing to
stay with the Co-op as long
as the current and past
financial history is cleared
up.
“If it takes firing some
people, the members are
saying they will support it,”
Korona concluded.
Indeed, if the sentiments
expressed this week by a
number of Eastern members
are indicative of the Co-op as

Korona said he is making
it his Job to see the Co-op
does embark upon a period
of financial stability.
Meanwhile, efforts by
Eastern to force non
members shipping to the
South Waverly plant to join
the Co-op continue.
But two cooperatives have
indicated they are willing to
take members and milk in
the area.
Lehigh Valley Cooperative
Vice President John York
said the Coop “needs more
milk” and said Lehigh had
“an open door” to any
farmer with proper quality,
location, and volume.
Lehigh has been building
three pockets of milk in the
northeast. One, with 60 to 70
shippers, is near Marathon,
N.Y., he continued.
A second is in Bradford
and Susquehanna Counties,
near Towanda. The third is
in Wayne County near
Waymart.
York, in charge of
Lehigh’s member relations,
said “If anybody in that area'
wants to talk with me. I’d be
glad to talk to them.
“We need to develop an
additional supply of milk
from producecaaSvM will
open their doors to Lehigh,”
he stated.
Inter-State Milk
Producers, while not
mounting a concentrated
recruiting campaign, said it
would not refuse to talk to
anyone who meets its
sanitation requirements.
“If farmers in the area
request a market and have
the quality for the market.

Peach production in

Inter-State’s Boyd Gartley.
Inter-State currently has
other Order n shippers.
While it wduld be
uneconomical for any co-op
to pick up an' isolated
shipper, Inter-State in
dicated it was the co-op’s
purpose to pick up good
dairymen seeking a market.
