MUNICIPAL MILK PLANT TOBE ASKED Consumers’ Council Head Says Price Probe by Con- gress to Be Pressed. Asserting the recent 1-cent increase in the price of milk to Washington consumers is unnecessary, Mrs. John Boyle, jr, chairman of the Consum- ers’ Council of the District, last night reaffirmed her determination to seek & congressional investigation. Mrs. Boyle told the Cathedral Heights-Cleveland Park Citizens’ As- sociation that Chairman King of the Senate District Committee had given assurance he would co-operate for such an investigation. The Consumers” Council chairman said the investigation would review the hearings which preceded adoption of the milk marketing agreement, as well as the hearings on the price increase. The milk marketing agree- ment was held unconstitutional in District Court and an appeal on the ruling is now pending. Mrs. Boyle added she will seek to have introduced at this session a bill to provide for a municipally owned milk pasteurizing and bottling plant. She said Representative Ellenbogen, Democrat, of Pennsylvania introduced such a measure a few years ago. “The price of milk to the consumer might be as low as 8 cents a quart if such a plant were in operation here,” she said, A resolution urging the minimum age requirement for automobile drivers in Washington be raised from 16 to 18 years was adopted by the associa- tion. The support of the Federation of Citizens’ Associations on the pro- posal will be sought. The association referred to a com- mittee a request for support of the three-platoon system for the District of Columbia Fire Department. e e NORTH RANDLE GROUP PROTESTS ABATTOIR Citizens’ Association Sees Drop in Realty Values—Committee Chairmen Named.

PARIS, November 11.—Strong forces of mobile guards lined the Champs Elysees today to prevent a repetition of last year's Armistice day brawls between French Leftists and Rightists. The government of Premier Leon Blum adopted strong measures to curb suspected political demonstrations, moving 10,000 guards into the capital to reinforce regular police. ‘The public order squads moved into position as thousands of Paris resi- dents converged on the wide avenue near the Tomb of the Unknown Sol- dier, where France’s observance of the 18th armistice anniversary centered. Leftist leaders urged their followers to attend the ceremonies to prevent the Rightist adherents from giving a “false impression” of greater strength. ‘The supporters of the Popular Front government were instructed to be or- derly, but on guard against possible street attacks from their political op- ponents. Col. Francois de la Rocque sent out 2 mass order to his Social party mem- bers to participate in the parade of veterans, which was to be followed by & military review before President Albert Lebrun and Premier Blum. (The French armistice exercises last year culminated in a series of street brawls as a column of 25,000 veterans marched to the Unknown Soldier’s ‘Tomb under the Arch of Triumph.)
