Coroner Flynn emphasized his in- tention to be thorough in investigat- ae aceident this afternoon, by ordering detectives to round up a dozen or more of the motormen who make runs from the West Farms barns to question them as to their | qualifications, The Coroner also ordered the summoning of strikebreaking of. clals, whom he desired to question }teaorening the requirements of men they supply to run cars, “MITCHEL AND STRAUS | DRAW UP STRIKE CHARCE { | Will Declare Testimony Taken by Service Board Shows Both Sides Violated Agreement.

And remember this—that nothing that comes to your table requires anything like the comprehensive SERVICE that a good milk supply demands. e supervise the pro- duction of Borden's milk with a corps of ninety-two inspectors and veterinarians. These constitute the largest inspection force in the world devoted to supervising a milk supply. This force is nearly twice as large as the combined in- spection force of New York and Chicago. It means that the Borden supply is the most intensively inepected Lppree supply of milk in America. This service also includes fhe eerie of clean, orderly plants in the country where the milk is produced and a never ceasing supervision over the product until it is delivered to your door, and the law requires that it be delivered at a temperature not higher than 50 degrees. It provides a service that keene the production of each day moving in a constant stream from the dairying districts —sometimes nearly four hundred miles away—to the con- suming markets. It provid service that juires a milkman to come to your door at a certain hour each day, rain or shine, hot or cold, and there never was a time when New York had a whole day's supply ahead. It provides a service that cannot be interrupted forone day without serious inconvenience, endangering the lives of thousands of children. Fresh milk, unlike other commodities, cannot be stored, cannot be held, cannot be juggled on the market, but must be turned over every day or its value is so impaired that what is realized is only salvage instead of value. No food Broduct demands such exacting service on the part of the distributor. No staple product on the market provides the distributor with so small a net profit as MILK.
