Pennsylvania official McHale says Governor Shapp and he support Senate Bill 130 to end retail milk controls. The bill would protect farmer prices and ban milk as a loss leader, requiring at least a five percent markup. Dealer bonds would rise, and the aim is to lower consumer prices while ensuring dairy profits.
New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture Phillip Alampi defended state milk price controls in an interview after addressing the Lehigh Valley Cooperative Farmers meeting. He argued the controls prevent price wars, noting minimum retail prices and federal orders apply to all dairy retailers and keep consumer costs lower than neighboring states.
Vice-president Spiro T. Agnew spoke to about 1300 dairy farmers at the Lehigh Valley Farmers Cooperative 40th annual meeting in Lancaster at Host Farm. He challenged media portrayals of farming costs and urged education of the public on farming economics and marketing.
Thirteen-year-old Andy Lutz of Lancaster won the display contest at the 4-H Soil and Water Conservation Roundup held Tuesday at the Farm and Home Center.
