ENFORCE “BABIES FIRST’’ RULE IN NEW YORK CITY NEW YORK, Aug. 22 (UP)—A “Bubies First" rule on milk sales was enforced by retailers in congested parts of New York City today ns the strike of upstate dairy farmers continued pending a vote on Mayor F. H. Laguardia s proposed settlement. On the congested east side, as the milk shortage became more acute, 200 women surrounded a milk truck pleading, but vainly, that the driver give them milk for their babies, Most crowded sections of the city enforced the “Babies First" rule. Many grocery store proprietors refused to sell to new customers as the Metropolitan area’s milk supply was cut in half.

Gov. Towntend

Indiana’s tali corn king again will be crowned, rewarded, am fittingly honored, at the Indiana State Fair, Saturday night, Sept. 2, durinf: the VYLS National Born Dance program to be presented

the grand-

stand stage 6-11 P. M. Governor M. Clifford Townsend, who will crown the champion, nn^ award other prizes in the contest, was enthusiastic today as he discussed the tall corn contest and Indiana’s chances of producing a toller stalk than our neighboring

states.

"It is with great pleasure that I offer the Governor’s cup, and with greater pride that I remind our neighboring state chief executives, that Indiana’s stalk last year was quite a bit taller than those produced by Iowa and Illinois and Wisconsin,” Governor Townsend said. Last yaer Governor Townsend’s trophy was won by John Penney, veteran Bloomingdale, Ind., grower, who produced a stalk that measured 17 feet 1 inch from the first joint above the ground to th* top of the tassel. ^This year the Prairie FarmerWLS radio station will award a large sweepstakes trophy to the champion of the three states, Uli hois. Wisconsin and Indiana, and sinee the winning heighth in thu other two states will be known before the Indiana State Fair, it is Governor Townsend’s hope that he not only will be aide to present his trophy to the Hoosier champion, but also will be able to say the Indiana King is sweepstake winner over three states. In addition to the Governor’s nophy, the champion will receive $15; second tallest stalk will win $10, third tallest $5 and the nine next tallest, one dollar prizes each. Prise winners will be guests of the State Fair management and the WLS Barn Dance officials duriny the evening performance. Indiana farmers are urged to seek out their tallest stalks, Measure from the first joint above the ground to the top of the tassel. The stalk must have at least one ear on it. Send measurements to the Tall Corn Contest, W’LS, Chicago, 111., at once, and all Indiana entries must be in before midnight, Monday, August 28, since the Indiana Fair runs Sept 1 to 8, inclusive. Duplicate prizes will be awarded in case of ties.
