He noted 34 million pounds of powdered milk in government storage and proposed double rations where possible, plus buying excess milk at market prices if needed. He also suggested acquiring surplus Grade A fluid milk from Wisconsin and other states and distributing it to Mississippi and other areas by tanker or rail.
