Milk deliveries halted as OPA price clash widens
About 30,000 residents in the Fredonia Dunkirk area faced a second halt in milk deliveries as the OPA blocked a 15 cent quart price above ceilings. Federal Judge Knight sought a temporary injunction against four area dealers for alleged above-ceiling purchases and sales. Dealers said they would drop retail prices to 14 cents a quart if the injunction stands. Dairy farmers, represented by Harry Salhoff, threatened to withhold milk unless paid 347 dollars per hundredweight. The OPA argued the actions were inflationary and harmed the price structure. In Medina, 50 dairy farmers threatened to withhold milk unless a 4 cent per quart increase was granted.
