Eastern Milk Chief Assails Truckers Contract Costs
Syracuse dairy leader John C. York, GM of Eastern Milk Producers, criticizes the truckers’ settlement as raising wages by 1.65 an hour with a 30 to 36 percent rise over three years. He warns dairy farmers face higher costs and potential disaster, urging talks among Secretary Usery, Secretary Butz, and Eastern reps to set future target prices and cost of living provisions. York argues inflation harms producers and consumers and laments equal rights as a backward step for farmers.
