Shortage of Dry Skim Raises Alarms at Dairy Convention
At the National Cooperative Milk Producers federation meeting in Chicago, Frank D. Stone of Land O Lakes warned that postwar problems will dwarf current issues as fluid milk is diverted to evaporating and cheese plants. He noted dry skim solids shortages arise from profits favoring evaporated milk and cheese over butter, with idle plants able to produce dry skim yet unused.

Holman Proposes New Parity Plan at Dairy Convention
Charles W. Holman secretary of the National Cooperative Milk Producers Federation unveiled a parity yardstick to raise farmer buying power by tying parity to recent urban gains. He argued current parity freezes farm prices to 1910-14 levels and ignored productive advances and changing conditions. The plan, backed by farm leaders, aims to reflect tech and supply shifts in price relationships for dairy commodities.
