Milk Control Board to Argue Over New Order Next Tuesday
The Milk Control Board will seek to apply the new Pennsylvania dairy order to 50 dealers exempted by court order. Dauphin County Court will hear arguments to compel obedience despite appeals. Dealers seek exemption until appeals are decided, with the constitutional challenge advancing to the Superior Court. The order, effective Jan 16, aims to raise farmer returns without raising consumer costs, but some districts claim 10 to 11 cents per quart minimum prices create discrimination.
