Total milk sold from farms in 1945 reached 1 15 billion pounds, yielding 3 070 380 000 dollars to farmers as highways remain the main channel from farm to plant to consumer.

German Miners Strike and British Draft Extend
Miners in Germany's Ruhr area strike for larger food rations, with over 300,000 off the job at times as most mines idle in the past two weeks. Britain seeks to supply food while shortages push coal output down, threatening electric power in 13 European nations. Parliament passes a peacetime conscription bill extending laws five years, mandating 18 months of active service for men aged 18 to 26 and five and a half years of part-time service.
