Dairymen seek 3 to 4 cent milk price hike in California
Dairy interests pressed the California State Food and Agriculture Department Monday for a 3 to 4 cent rise in the half gallon price of milk. Consumer groups opposed the move, criticizing the department’s handling of the request during a two day hearing. Tension flared as dairy voices clashed with Public Advocates officials who argue the department’s statistics method should be changed before any increase. The dispute comes amid a December price rise and ongoing lawsuits over the department’s price-setting methods.

Ward charges the state board censored an audit of Los Angeles County assessor Watson. He claims outside probes and officials manipulated the 972-73 audit to delete critical items, releasing his critique by letter to supervisors late in the day to discourage contact with those named.
