Health Board Official Says Four Milk Inspectors Not Enough.
CITES WORK INCREASE
Summer Time for Greater Safeguard of Supply, He Explains.
Four dairy inspectors are not enough for Indianapolis, Dr. Herman G. Morgan, City Health Board secretary, said today. Hs is to ask for more. Hot weather makes milk inspection increasingly necessary, he
said. To prevent summer epidemics, the Health Board constantly tests the supply in an effort to keep down the bacteria count. Moreover, the Indianapolis area is aproaching a low milk supply period, Dr. Morgan said, which puts an additional burden on the inspectors.
Inspection Made Difficult
When the milk supply is low, disJributors must find new producers,
« Dr. Morgan said. These new pro-
ducers are added to the inspection list. To do this work correctly, he said, the staff should be enlarged. A recent survey of milk markets of the nation showed the production * and distribution to be in a bad state. The difficulty, according to the survey made by S. A. Palmer of the Federal Commission, is in introducing a system to permit sufficient consumption at a price which brings an adequate ieturn to the farmer producer. Dr. Morgan said this always has
“been an acute problem and in-
directly affects the health aspect of | Z& the milk problem. Small producers, who do not use the latest-type equipment, continue to be a major Soliree of supply for fluid milk, he said.
Local Quality High
The quality of the Indianapolis * milkshed supply has been J unusually . far abave the 336. bi
The " discrepancy Between price to producer and that paid by consumer, Dr, Morgan said, is due to
.& great extent to the health meas-
_Inyolved in distributing the “These are costly and absorb unt of the-difference. hapolis supply of milk
plained, “ut; we are about to enter the low point in the seven-year cycle of milk supply. When th supply is high and the price is low, many milk producers drop out of the business. The distributors soon are forced to seek new supplies and a Job of inspection is increased.” There is little chance of the milk shortage becoming acute, according to Dr. Morgan. He pointed out that dry milk and condensed milk glways are available.
Efficiency Not to Drop
“We have no thought that the department will be unable to cope with the health work in milk inspection—we know it will but we do need more men in the departm Our records should be brought up to date, but the lack of personnel
;makes it impossible now.
“Although milk is one of the finest
foods'it is possible to obtain, it is
also one of the first items cut from the budget when economic measures become imperative.” The Federal survey, which Dr. Morgan said is substantiated by findings during his experience here, showed that upward movement in| cattle prices is accompanied by a decreasing volume of milk.

Explorer Sees Civilization Plunging Toward Its Own Destruction.
By United Press ,NEW YORK, June 6.—Convinced by six months of meditation in an icebound Antarctic hut that civilization is plunging toward destruction, Admiral Richard E.

The+ famous explorer announced his resolution last night at a dinner at which executives of many of the largest industrial firms and culfusal groups of the country honored
Byrd said he intended sometime to take two years for another trip of exploration—he did not say of what region—but for the rest of his life he intended to speak, write. and organize for international amity.

By United Press BUCHAREST, Rumania, June 6. Leaders of the Little Entente nations — Jugoslavia, Czechoslovakia and Rumania—met today to decide the policy of their 48,000,000 people: in what threatened to be a new European crisis. Reports received in Paris, Vienna and Budapest lent further strength to rumors that a coup by which Otto von Hapsburg might ascend the Austrian throne and denunciation of the Trianon Treaty by Hungary might be imminent, «It ‘is the declared policy of the Little Entente that accession of a Hapsburg to the throne in Austria would be aufomatic cause for combined army mobilization.
Even as the leaders met it was :
reported authoritatively in Vienna that Otto intended to ‘leave his Steenockerzeel, Belgium, ecastle of exile within two weeks for a destination known only to a few of his highest advisers. Viennk reported also that monarchists were increasingly confident of Otto’s early enthronement.

APPEAL TO MODERATES

BY THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer
CLEVELAND, June 6.— Gov. Alf M. Landon’s forces were ready today ‘to throw the constitutional issue into the Republican convention opening here Tuesday and thus steal a march on the > Democrats. They are proposing a plank to put the party on record for a constitu. tional amendment giving the states power to regulate wages. and hours and thus meet the problem raised by the Supreme Court in its recent 5-4 decision scrapping New York's minimum wage law for. women. This decision, as President Roosevelt pointed out, left a “no man’s land,” since the Supreme Court's Guffey Act decision had already closed the door to Federal legislation and the New York decision held
the states powerless. Minimum wage laws of 17 states were knocked out. Republicans generally have-argued that wage and hour regulation is a state affair, and therefore, . the Landonites hold, a “state's right” amendment is entirely consisteng and necessary to achieve this form
