Ruddell presents Hart —
with solution on milk

In a strongly worded protest dispatched to Premier Hart,
Elgin Ruddell, chairman of the Emergency Committee on
Milk, stated that the govermment’s rejection of Wancouver
city council’s demand for a provincial milk subsidy showed
a complete disregard of the sentiments of the overwhelming

majority of the people of the

whole province.

Ruddell is chairman of the
body which originally asked the
city council to demand a subsidy
from the provincial government.
Expressing satisfa¢tion, that the
city council had made such a re-
quest, Ruddell stated that the
mayor should now follow up the
question by convening a city-wide
conference of all organizations in
the city and leading a delegation
to Victoria to demand a reversal
of the premier’s decision. °

“Since Victoria took the respon-
sibility for ordering a milk price
inerease their responsibility in
this field is establish-
ed” Ruddell declared.

His “letter made
four main points:

@ Restoration of
the September price
of milk;

@ Subsidy to cover
cost of same, paid di-
rectly to the farmers
from liquor profits;

@ Consumer, labor
and farmer represen-
tation on milk board;

@ Public enquiry
into the distribution
of milk. :

Ruddell declared
further that he is
confident the grow-
ing protest among
labor organizations,
housewives, and the
public generally, will
compel the coalition
government to face
up to its responsibiH-
ties. i
