Atnong those present were iSttfcsr.e Rosio, Instructor, and niflnober? of the M.C.H.S. FuttSe Farmers organization. Split-Off Problem In the 'principal address, MgWUliftms, who serves as k chief negotiator for Federated Dfciry Cooperatives, said FDC is Contending with a split-off of four small cooperatives among its twenty-four member coops, but "we still have the plants" and bargaining will go on with a determination to win. Another problem facing Chicago market producers is that other markets, such as Milwaukee and Madison, have negotiated superpools at lower levels than the one for Chi cato, 5. -If &ec«$»ry, PMA will ask av heafcjbtf to combine the Chicago and Milwaukee mar kets to overcome the compoti lion of certain Milwaukee deal eri who are competing with owe Chicago customers," Mc Williams declared. "We feel we will come out with a supeipool again," he f-aid, "even if we have to comt oijtt here and ask you to make some changes in your marketin| operations/' McWilliams also outlined other steps Pure Milk association la taking to improve producer Income. One is through amendments PMA is seeking to Chicago milk market order No. 30. The other is through the Dairymen's Class I Base Plan for Federal order market* Major Proposals These major proposals, he said, are among PMA's recommendations lor amending Chicago Order 30: X, Limit zone transportation credits to handlers so that faimers who have traditionally .supplied milk to the market will not be penalized. 2. Plants which bring milk into the Chicago market must ship in the whole product, and not Just 10 percent of it in the form of cream in order to qualify for the pooL 8. Eliminate the Indiana portion of the Order 30 marketing area. 4. Eliminate the base-excess plan from the order. If the base is discontinued, the base made in 1963 is the one to go. PMA proposes that the base made last fall be used in J963, ^.Eliminate the supply-demand adjuster from the Chicago order so as to increase the Class I price to producers by 24 cents per cwt. McWilliams said an all-out effort will be made to get congress to pass legislation which would make it possible lor dairy farmers who ship to Federally regulated markets ft adopt the Dairymen's Class 1 Base Plan, The Dairymen's fclalss I Base Plan is designed to fit production to market requirements and would sharply cut dairy price support costs. McWilliams said it is the beat program among four choices Congi-ess will receive for consideration. The other three include a direct subsidy proposal which would cost over $1 billion, a butter subsidy which would add another $150 million to present dairy price support costs of around $600 million, and a program of reducing price supports to level off production. Musin' & Meanderin' (Continued from page 1) before going to the treasurer's office. The list* will be printed next summer. The first of the new quadrennial assessment taxes will be collected In 1964. We realty hadn't given this a thought until someone reminded us that one of the questions that came up most often was: "Why won't traffic engineers designate more roads as one-way highways?' They point out that one look at a map will tell us that usually there are two good roads between every major city. If each of these roads «vas designated a one-way route, head-on collisions and a number of other types of accidents might be almost eliminated. Inexpensive feeder roads, •vere suggested to handle locai traffic that wanted to go in a direction opposite to the one-way road. And whije we're dreaming, we might also consider what a completely different highway system there will be when the air-cushion cars -- wheel-less autos that ride on a cushion jf air -- are widely available. Highways won't wear out, anu .here probably will be no weight limits for trucks. Well, we're just pessimistic enough to be very sure that some other problem will take place of the one that's eliminated. When grandma had trouble lifting her skirts high nough to step into the old JUggy, she probably thought, ail her problems would be solved by the advent of the norseless model, and how wrong she was!

BLACKMAIL IS SHOCKING "Dear Editor: "The moral decay and lacking integrity of the American people could be no more clearly indicated than through the shocking disclosure that Cardinal Richard Cushing gave one million dollars in bribe money to the Anti-Christ brute Castro. The many donees apparently knew their contributions would be used as blackmail. "Cardinal Cushing had no more moral right to hand over blackmail money to the bearded monster than did Bobby Kennedy have a moral right to declare contributions to the blackmail to be tax free. It is estimated that it cost the American taxpayers $20,000,000 by permitting the drug firms to write-off their $53,000,000 worth of drugs. "Eisenhower, in April, 1961, had the unmitigated gall to stand before a microphone with Senator Dirksen and Rep. Hallcck and say in part, "We did help to overthrow Batista because we were so very tired of dictators." From the expression on their faces as appeared in the Chicago Tribune, Senator Dirksen and Rep. Halleck made me think of two starry-eyed school boys gazing at their hero, although both veterans of Congress should certainly have known that it was not the business of the United States to interfere in Cuban affairs. If the people of .Cuba didn't like Batista, it was up to them to overthrow him. "Instead of bribing Castro for the release of prisoners, the United States should have thrown a blockade around that island, and I do not mean a phoney blockade as of last October. Ships carrying oil were permitted to go through that so-called blockade in October, although without oil Castro would be helpless. Since we are responsible for the tragedy in Cuba we certainly should free those unfortunate people of ("astro by a complete blockade. "Yours truly, "Mary Lee McKee "Richmond, 111."
