AT INVESTICATION Effort to discover what sort of an agreement there Is between distrib- uters ef milk in Washington to keep the price where it is, charged they can continue to receive nearly 100 per cent profit, was made by Repre- sentative Milispaugh of Missouri when the first withess for the dis- tributers took the stand at the hear- | ing today. Willlam A. 8impson, who has been in the milk business for himself in Washington for thirty-three years, ,and who delivers principally to chain stores, hotels and lunchrooms to the i extent of about 5,000 gallons a day, |told the committee that he is in n= agreemant with any other distri , ter and that he incurred the displeas- ure of the Maryiand-Virginia iik Froducers' Association because after the end of the war days he had re- duced the price of milk about 1 cent a quor* to the consumer. uestioned by members of the com- mittee, Mr. Simpson admitted that the entire reduction and a little bit more came from the price he paid I to the producer. Subeommittee Divided. At present the subcommittee con- ducting the hearing on the milk sup- ply for Washington is about evenly divided on the question of tuberculin test, as required by the health depart- meat. or merely pasteurization. for which the distributors are contending. Representative Millspaugh of DMis- souri and Representative Kunz of linois have both stated positively that in any legislation drafted as a result of these hearings they will insist upon compulsory pasteurization under the supervision of the District health office. Representative Kunz says that he will also contend for a 4 per cent butter fat content, as is required in Baltimore, instead of a 314 per cent content, which is now sufficient in the District. Reprseentative Kunz sald he be- lieved that not only were the dis- tributo profiteering in the prices charged consumers, but that they also were adulterating much of the milk through skimming off some of the cream. Dr. W. C. Fowler again today, when questioned by members of the commit- tee, #200d pat for a tuberculin test as an additional safe rd beyvond the pas- teurization test. He introduced testi- mony to show that the Wes: Virginie Dairy Assoclation, which is not allied with the Maryland-Virginia Producers Association, is ready to ship in tuber- culin-tested milk. This was introduced in refu‘ation of the statement that th Maryland-Virginta Milk Producers’ As sociation had a monopoly on the Dis trict supp.y, being the only ones whe could ship in tubercu in-tested mi'k. W. A. Simpson, proprietor of the Walker-Hill Dairy Company, was thc first distributor ~ called to testify Several members of the subcommittee took notes on the prices he paid for milk in Frederick county under a bonus system, which are less than the prices paid by other distributors to the Maryland-Virginia Milk Producers’ Association. Representative Hammer of North Carolina and other members saild they proposed to show that Mr. 8impson, while selling his milk in truckloads to hotels, stores and lunch- rooms, is in reality getting 100 per cent or more profit and that he is re- ceiving more than other producers. Willing to Shew Boaks. Mr. 8impson assured the committec that he would be glad to have them or an auditor acting for them, go ove: his books, but that he hesitated to make public information regarding the cost of operating his business, wher: gompetitors would take-gdvantage o o s J. J. Barbour, a milk -pfoducer and attorney for the Maryiand-V.rginia association, said that the associatic also would welcome an investigatio by the committee of its minutes auc books. - Mr. Simpson reviewed before the committee his fight ing for a year and a halt with the Maryland-Vir- ginia Milk Producers’ Association, and said that he had told the Frederick county producers that he would not deal with them as members of the Maryland-Virginia Association, but as individuals. He said that the Mary- land-Virginia Association had started a campaign to get him because he had cut the price 6f milk in Washington after war conditions had eased up. Mr. Simpson also said that when the milk strike started, although he and other distributors were bitter com- petitors, he had helped out some of them as far as he could from &is surplus milk supply when the Mary- land-Virginia Milk Producers’ A=:o- ciation had cut them off.
