The “little fathers” of that locality known as Alaska are to meet in mid-week in Juneau ostensibly te talk over problems arising when they step on each others’ toes and to trim the corns arising therefrom. This is indeed a good idea, inasmuch as some of the agencies to be represented at this meeting notoriously splay-footed, with toes that seem to be everywhere, and hence are sometimes bound to be stepped on or do some trodding themselves. But of all bodies to be represented—the military and practically all its sub-divisions, the Department of the Interior with its agencies, the Governor's office and other Territorial officialdom-~there is one body which seems to be blithely ignored.

High Cost Of Milk Senate investigators have just be- gun a sweeping probe of milk prof- in| | cago, Milwaukee, Washington, and other large cities, though the prices farmers receive for the milk vary from six to as much as 132 centsj less. The biggest price spread is in Chicago, where in, some cases dair- s are paying only eight cents a quart for milk sold to consumers for 21': cents. | Note—One reason for the price spread is high wages or commis- sions paid to drivers of milk de- livery trucks. An investigation of Chicago milk costs some time ago showed that some milk truck driv- | got $10,000 a year and in a few deliveries to hotels and , up to $30,000 a year. er: ASE | Truman Knew Answer President Truman knew all the answers when officials of the Lea- 'gue of Women Voters read him some questions on voting and regis- tration from their interesting book- let, “What's the U.
