Dillon | (Pormer Btato Commissioner of Markets.) Written Exclusively for The Evening World. ‘The way to secure a full supply of milk for the city at reasonable cost {¥ to open a free channel for the flow of it from the bands of the farmer tu the door of the consumer under the unobstructed law of supply and | demand. The interest of producer} and consumer will then be common, If consumption is large and the price enough to cover cost of production the farmer will increase his production. "The supply will be increased and the| cost to consumer reduced. | If the consumption is less, the farmer will reduce his herds and the cost will increase, The experience of all time is that a monopoly in food distribution discour production, roduces the supply and increases cost to the consumer. A freo market, on the other hand, | always increases production and re- duces the cost to the consumer, The reason {9 simple enough, When 4 monopoly exists the dealers exact big profits which add to the consumers cost and lessens their power to pure chase. Small consumption is the re- wult Our problem is to remove the pri- vate monopoly and secure an economic distribution, Stringent laws, official regulation and Government regulation of prices have failed because the big distribut- ing interests are in partnership with Government agencies and control the regulative and price making agencies, We have had forty years’ experience regulating the milk traffic, and our knowledge of Government price fix. ing of milk is of very recent experi- ence. . EST” ALWAYS PROTECTED. As a matter of fact, politicians, of- ficials and Governments have done everything in the mi traflic that could be done except the one thing that would secure a supply and re duce the They have always recognized the vested terest of the distributer, and refused These profits to pay, and 40 cost to consumers, his profits. have to touch the housewife long as the system is continued the coat of milk will be high: Uniess we are willing to reduce the | direct from the cars to the store, The | plants at a cost not to exceed half a |bottied milk delivered ,to them just Jae other supplies are how delivered. ved, 1k is now sold loose out of the c at grocery stores, a This largely goes remainder could be bottled In the olty cent a quart. ‘The grocery and dell- cateasen stores should be furnis! all the milk they want. They would want all they could sell either loose or in bottes desire to sell bottled milk and are ers’ homes for one cent a quart. They We supply these stores we weyld have milk In every nook and corner of the city. Consumers could get the loose milk at the grocery stores or have The cost being reduced, the store would be able to collect a deposit for the bottle to insure its prompt return. Another bottle would replace the one returned or the deposit may be de- manded. The wholesaler would charge the store for bottles and 8 delivered and credit their return, Ho would also ask a shipping receipt from the ra{lroad for returned cans and avoid all loss in bottles and cana except the normal wear and tear. ADVOCATES USE OF STREET CARS IN EARLY MORNING, Milk is handled in the city in the early morning when there ts little sur- fnce travel, and the street car lines should be utilized to deliver the milk to distributing centres. The city is so situated that long hauls are now necessary. This expense can be very largely eliminated by the use of the street rails, When I suggested this last year to the Mayor's committees the only objection made was that le- gal right to do #o does not exist, But h the possibility of a large saving t would seem that this objection could be easily overcome in favor of cheaper milk, It has been argued that women will not go to the store for milk. I answer that they now go for more than 60 per cent. of the milk sold in the city and pay from 1 to 3 cents more than it would cost under this system, The grocery stores are not supplied with bottle milk at all, and delicatessen stores have such a small margin they BEAUTIFUL HAIR THICK WAVY FREE ~ FROM DANDRUFF | Draw a moist cloth through hair and double its beauty at once.

WOULD DEMONSTATE BETTER DISTRIBUTION PLAN, A little kindergarten demonsiration is what we need. Let us take, say, 5,900 cans of milk a day from the farmers’ hands and deliver tt to the consumers, We can pay for all th service and keep an open account of the cost, Th we would know what the service ought to cost us, and If the pr t dealers were not sqtsfied to do the business at a reasonabl: profit over this cash, we could easil the privilege to men who would to do 80 This demonstration work might be undertaken by private enterprise or by organizations of producers or ; but it is a proper functior State or Federal Govern the municipal authority avoid many embarrassment? that the other interests would encoun ter, Farmers would gladly co-operate with the Government in the demon- stration, and or ions of buteh ers and grocers are equally anxious to ¢o so, Governments spend millions of dollars to demonstrate alleged econo- 3 in the use of food and fuel. They onstrate the art of making cot- tage cheese, of blendiog Welsh rare- ment, would bit and of converting stale bread crumbs into edible compounds, We provide Water transportation and parks.
