Writing to Pennsylvania con
gressmen on behalf of the united

Pennsylvania dairy industry has
reached a united voice concerning
form bill dairy provisions.

through the hearing process, we
strongly oppose Rep. Gunderson's
proposal for legislated changes to
Federal Orders and preemption of
State Orders.
8. We support adoption of ex
pedited administrative procedures
for securing changes in Federal
Orders including a provision to al
low for amendments to Orders
without endangering the loss of
the entire Order.
9. As this is partially being done
already, we support the replace

Price with a product pricing for
mula for Class m products which
will react more quickly to market
changes.
10. As this is already the case,
we support the continuation of a
Class II price which is equal to the
Class m price per hundred-weight
plus $.30.
11. Multiple component pricing
programs to determine the price
paid producers for milk other than
Class I is supported.
12. We support the formation of
a national milk security fund to
protect producers from lots of in*
come due to processor bankrupt
cy, as long as state programs al
ready in place may be maintained
if they provide greater security
than die proposed federal pro
gram.
“Hopefully the unification of
die Pennsylvania dairy industry on
these 12 points will provide Con
gress with a good starting point in
its consideration of Dairy Title
proposals for the 1995 Farm Bill"
Eckel said.
