Strike and Control Clash Over Detroit Milk Market
An analysis of the ill advised milk strike shows organized labor aimed to take over the Michigan Milk Producers Association rather than secure higher prices for farmers. The strike harmed farmers, sowed dissension, and sought to seize MMPA assets while dues were collected. The April price rise to five dollars per cwt applied only to milk used for bottling and fluids after costs.
