OF MILK FIRMS’ BOOKS ORDERED

Investigation to Determine If Price Structure Change Is Needed.

An audit of milk distributing | companies’ books was ordered to(day by Leon C. Coller, Marion | County Area Milk Administrator, to | determine whether the milk price | structure will have to be changed | because of the new wage agreement between distributors and de- | livery drivers. The agreement was | signed to end a recent strike and | milk tieup. | The State Milk Control Board | yesterday ordered daylight deliveries | for winter months. Wagons will be- | gin loading not before 5 a. m. C. | Winfield Hunt, distributors’ spokesman, said few if any deliveries to homes or stores would be made before 6 a. m. In the original petition it was pro- | vided that no milk wagons making deliveries in the county should be | allowed on the street before 7 a. m. | In urging establishment of a daylight system, Dr. Herman G. Morgan, City Health Board secretary, | said it would protect the health of | the drivers and the consumers. He | pointed out that milk which has | been allowed to freeze before it has | been consumed loses some of it | healthful properties. Under both plans the daylight | system would be in effect only until | April 1. It would be resumed again on Oct, 1.

MAY ENTER WAR, SPEAKER WARNS

There is more at stake in this war than China. “What is at stake is the rights of {man to determine his own govern- | ment and his own way of life {against ruthless oppression by mili[tary autocrats. We must not let | what has happened in Europe happen in the Orient.” | Declaring thie Japanese people did {not want this war, Dr.- Chih said it | was brought on by big banking | houses, the Army and the Emperor.
