Swift action promised on Candia milk price dispute
Acting Gov. Raymond K. Perkins pledged rapid action if a petition to abolish the State Milk Control Board in Candia is received. The petition, now with over 400 signatures, stems from dairyman Aime Jacob refusing a board order to raise milk price from 19 to 26 cents a quart. Jacob says he earns a profit at 19 and argues large distributors pressured the board. Agriculture Commissioner Perley I. Fitts said a public hearing will be set once the petition arrives and Gov. Lane Dwinell may receive it after Bermuda vacation.
