Early Action Expected On Proposals To Restrict Milk Group
Richmond—House and Senate Agriculture committees may take early action on proposals heard Monday to restrict price fixing powers and reorganize the state milk commission. A two hour joint hearing preceded bills by Sen. Warren Jr. and Sen. Baldwin to revamp and limit the commission, with a House measure seeking to remove price fixing from wholesale and retail milk. Supporters argue declination of price controls would boost consumption, while critics warn against undermining producer prices and consumer protection.

Appeals Court Reverses Ruling Against Arlington School Plan
The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a lower court ruling, finding no unconstitutional deprivation of white students’ educational opportunities under Arlington School Board’s plan to desegregate Hoffmann-Boston and Thomas Jefferson Junior High. The court noted the merged district is educationally advantageous and that prior decisions misread the role of racial considerations.
