neg-ro family. We'd be glad to give

milk to the Carmelite orphans but nobody has ever asked for it." Now, Mr. Kuyper suddenly discovers that he does know EhrBam, that he is

regularly, employed as a driver, that

'he has no authority to collect the 30 cents a day for delivering- milk to the orphanage and that anyhow The Times is a liar.

In his advertisement Mr. Kuyper

aysj "It Is tha general lmpreislon that

oharg-es made against this dairy are

'dona for sensational newspaper purposes 9t by competitors and this matiter has teen treated as such by the glair minded public." If Mr. Kuyper only knew what the .fair minded publio really thinks about paying 14 cents a Quart for milk when ithe Milk Producers' Co-operative Marketing; Company pours 51,000 quarts of skimmed milk Into the sewer dally in Lake county. Does ha think that by harping- away about a can of milk a day to the Carmelite orphange that he can obscure the big- outstanding (fact that his employers are engaged 1n tha destruction of skimmed milk i which Ir, Hurty, secretary of the rfitate board of health, denounces as "a In and a reflection on our civilization?" As for The Times axposa Delng prompted by competitors tha insinuation Is preposterious. Competitors? fWhy. the Milk Producers Co-operative "Marketing Company Is a trust. It has between 17,000 and 18,000 members In

'-Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin. It

controls the milk supply of the Chl-cag-o market. Competitors? Who?

Some Individual farmer, here or there.

who won't buy the company's stock and Is called a. "scab" by those who do belong? "It Is hardly possible," declares Mr. Kuyper In closing-, "that the Producers Dairy or any other concern will pay out good money for something- to tak-e .home and throw It down the aewtr! Mr. Kuyper Insults Intelligence by this laet remark. Fruix commission houses having- been buying- fruit in the bud and letting it rot on the trees for years In order to keep the supply down and the price up. Potatoes have been permitted to rot on the ground or in box cars rather than flood the market. The only way in which great food combines can defeat the law of supply and demand is to destroy bi withhold a part of the supply. Dr. Hurty states that skimmed milk contains seventy per cent of food value including- milk sugar, cheese a.nd mineral salts, and that its waste la a sin. Louise Klitzke, one of the proprietors of the largest dairy In northern Indiana, says that the Milk

Producers' Co-operative Marketing Company could Install machinery Tor 915,000 to can the skimmed milk and sell It at a profit. Mr. Klitzke makes cottage cheese of skimmed milk at his dairy and sells It for 15 cnts a pound. Mr. Kuyper or no other official ot the milk producers' companies dare deny that they have been throwing away skimmed milk for months. And It is ridiculous for them to attempt to Infer that the skimmed milk has no food value. The United Chemical Company of Hammond has offered to buy the entire supply of skimmed milk to be psed for the manufacture of chemicals.

CUT TO BE EFFECTIVE ON JULY 1 "What Will Labor Do?" Is Question Asked On All Sides.

ET MILDRED MORRIS STAFF CORRESPONDENT 1. N. SERVICE! WASHINGTON. May 1S.-XA cut Ithe wrntcs of railroad worker, will create a situation irstucht with arrave rtanjrrr," J. K. Anderson, vice president t the International Association of Machinist, who rrprf.rnli a large nomlx-r of the railroad shopmen, declared here today. "If the railroad labor board cat the waice sof the unskilled workers, the men will have to either abide by the board's deeUlon or trlae," nld Anderson.' Bt:i.IKTIV.) (INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEl JVEW YORK, May IS. Samuel Oompera today denounced the decision of the Vnlled States railroad labor board to rat the wssjes of railroad employes as "nnwBrnnitrl" nnd provocation to employes affected. "There Is no proper Justification for a cot In the pay of railroad employes," declared Gompers. "Helms In the position of Juda-es the labor board have been influenced by a aroup of employers -who want to cut vrsa-es no matter how unwarranted such action may be. . "Consciously or unconsciously they are provoking- the labor people to resentment," added Jin Gompers. INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEl CHICAGO, May 18. "What will labor do?" was the question that became

uppermost today as the result of the announcement of the United States Railway Labor Board that wages or railway employes will be revised downward, effective July 1. Upon the attitude taken by the labor organiza

tions, observers declared, hinges tin question of peace In the railway Industry.

No Inkling- of their attitude or Intentions was forthcoming today from

leaders of the railway workers here. It was evident desire of the men who have directed labor's long- fight to prevent wage cuts to wait until the full details of the board's plan are announced before making definite statements. , DEPEYDS ON REDUCTIONS. Kailroad heads however, were Inclined to see better times ahead for the roads as a result of the ruling. In railway executive circles however, there also was manifest a disposition

to await details before commenting.

H. K. Bryam, president of the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul road pronounced

the board's statement "encouraging:"

but said the benefits to be derived from it by the roads will depend upon the "reductions to be made." The announcement of the board declares that In Its Judgment, a "readjustment downward of wages of em

ployes of the carriers which are parties to the disputes already heard" is Justified. The board promised to announce on June 1 a decision covering these disputes, the decision to become

effective July 1. EXPECT 12 PER. CEST CUT.

On Monday, June 6, the board will hear wage reduction cases that have

been filed since April 18 or which will be filed between now and June 6. The decision In these disputes also will be effectives July 1. Although no Inkling- of the extent the reduction to be made was given by the board it was the general belief today that the wage cuts will aggregate approximately 12 per cent. Unskilled

employes of the roads will be chiefly affected. Percentages of Increase

granted to skilled workmen by the

board's decision of July 20, 1920, were

not so great .hence it is believed reductions now to be made will be less.

NOTICE TO THE PUBIJO The Producers Dairy company of Indiana Harbor take this means of contradicting recent false newspaper accusations made regarding- the disposal of skim milk. It has been stated that this dairy refused milk to the Carmellta Home unless they paid for it, which Is very untrue as that Institution has been receiving milk free of charga for the past two or three months and the Producers Dairy at their own expense pastuerlzed this milk. According- to certain newspaper propaganda, a driver in the employ of this dairy refused milk to the Carmelite Home. But the truth of the matter Is that this driver was an individual from Dyer, bringing milk to the dairy and on his return delivered milk to the home without charge as In-i structed by the Producers Dairy. Men.' women and children in the vicinity of this dairy have been getting all the milk they wanted. Anyone interested In this matter can confirm this statement by calling- or- interviewing- the Sister Superior at the Carmelite Home and Miss Noyes at the Katherine House. It is the general Impression ' that charges' made against this dairy are done for sensational newspaper purposes or by competitors and this matter has been treated as such by the fair minded public. It Is hardly possible that the Producers Dairy or any other concern will pay out pood money for something to take home and throw It down the sewer. , PRODUCERS DAIRY CO. Indiana Harbor. N. C.
