Hanna Ave. here, which has stood up during previous severe winters, is now impassable. : A county gravel truck was stranded in the mire most of the night on Banta Rd. last
night.
Milk Shipments Cut On the milk front, shipments
were cut about 10 per cent yes-| terday because of road conditions, Today's milk supply, coming into Indianapolis this afternoon, was expected to be from 25 to 50 per cent below normal, according to managers of the principal producers’ associations, led state police} “This isa sizable cut, but the situation is not yet an emergency,” said W. 8. Brockman, man-
ager of the Indianapolis Dairy-
men's Co-operative. “However, if the shortage continues for a few
days, it will be critical.” Producers’ representatives said
they expect a bigger supply to-
morrow. Spot shortages were developing! at some retail levels, but pro-

provising in a feverish . fight lagainst the elements. With most unpaved roads impassible, farmers were using tractors and jeeps to bring milk to main highways, where haulers designated points for pick-up. Haulers were two to four days late bringing milk here yesterday. Adding to the snarl was an embargo in Shelby and Montgomery Counties against use of secondary roads by trucks weighing three tons or more. Since most milk trucks surpass this minimum, haulers had to switch pickups and travel to state highways. The two counties supply about one-fourth of the milk in the Indianapolis milk shed. Hog shipments to the Indianapolis Stockyards were about 20 per cent off. Shipment of cattle, calves and sheep also was reduced, but not as much, Deliver on Foot Richard Kreusser, manager, the Stockyards’ Marketing Institute, sald the shortage is expected to be temporary. It will bring a slight price increase, but will have to stay in line with markets in other cities, he added. Among most harassed were bakeries which deliver to homes. Although drivers abandoned trucks at unpaved streets and walked to homes, deliveries had to be trimmed between 10 and 15 per cent. Omar Bakery reported about) 120 trucks a day were being towed out of bogged streets. Freihofer Bread Co. listed its tow-ins at 67 in the past three days.
