PREDICT CUT IN MILK PRICE IF PLEA GETS 0. K

Civic Club Leaders Blame Price-Fixing Poiicy for Part of Cost.

Mr. and Mrs. Indianapolis may be paying less for their milk In the near future and the amount of milk consumed in Marion County may increase at the same time, civic club leaders believe.

The State Milk Control Board is| at present considering a petition to This |

abandon Emergency Order 5. order gives it the power to fix the price of milk paid by the consumer, as has been the practice since 1935.

Indianapolis Federation of Com-| munity Civic Clubs attorneys have]

contended in their long campaign to have the order rescinded that price-fixing as practiced by the board is partially responsible for the high price of milk.

Expect ‘Fair Price’

It was predicted yesterday at a hearing of the Board that if the order is recalled “there probably will be a lot of fights and competition among the milk distributors but it will culminate in a “fair price” for milk. The petition for recalling of the order was filed yesterday by C. Winfield Hunt, executive secretary of the Indianapolis Milk Foundation. C. Wright Humrickhouse, Board secretary, said that the Board's decision on the price-fixing will be reached “as soon as it is possible.” Meanwhile, Federation officials plan to hold several committee meetings this week in preparation for the Board hearing next Wednesday on an order which would estabish “an open competitive Marion County milk producers’ market.” Hearing Was Postponed This hearing originally was scheduled for yesterday but the Milk Foundation and other interested groups requested a postponement to provide ample. time to study the proposed order which would “throw the market open on a competitive basis.” Albert Neuerberg, Federation attorney, in stating the organization's stand, said: “We have always been in favor of abolishing the price-fixing by the Milk Control Board and we are also not in favor of the producers’ market in Marion County as it exists today. We are in favor of what the proposed order would accomplish— ‘an open and competitive Marion County milk producers’ market.” Paul Wetter, Federation president, at vesterday’s hearing lauded the Board for the hours they had spent in drawing up the proposal, and said “I have been one of the Board's harshest critics, but I believe after studying this proposed order that the Board is finally trying to arrive at what the consumers need.”
