\~ANUSKA MILK—
"vntinued from page 1)
r ntract termination (and Mr.
Wilson said he had “reason to be
lieve the petition will be accept
ed this time”), it is expected that
the men as independent dairy
men, will resume their marketing
arrangement with the Alaska
Dairy.
Meanwhile Co-Op attorneys are
preparing an injunction against
L’ebiny and against Victor
Falk, Jr., and Victor Falk, Sr.
The two dairy farms currently
are supply Alaska Dairy with
milk.
In addition, George Jackson of
Alaska Dairy, has recruited two
new suppliers since last week. A.
R. Moffitt and Ed Hartner, leas
ing the Tom Moffitt dairy farm,
this week switched to Alaska
Dairy as their marketing agent.
The Co-Op manager said injunc
tions would be requested for
these two dairymen, and possibly
for a third, whose status was not
4dear at press-time. Mr. Wilson
admitted that the whole matter
Ibf drawing up and filing papers
Vbr each of these cases would
fUake some time.”
Questioned concerning a re
ported surplus of milk confront
ing the Co-Od, Mr. Wilson re
plied that “We now are well able
to supply our market. We have
diverted some small quantities
elsewhere, but that is a healty
condition.”
It was pointed out that not all
Anchorage housewives can get
doorstep delivery of Matanuska
milk. Winter delivery problems
must be solved, Wilson said, be
fore the demands of individual
consumers can be met. An an
ticipated new delivery truck, ex
pected in the spring, may help
solve the problem of reaching the
individual customer in Anchor
age.
USGS Supervisor Here
R. E. Marsh, district supervisor
» of the water resources division of
the U. S. Gelogical Survey, spent
several days in Palmer recently.
Mr. Marsh came to plan next sea
son’s construction program with
local members of the water re
sources division staff. He return
ed to Juneau last Friday._
The year 1950 will disclose
many people minding something
else beside their own business.

HAGEN REPORTS $74.90 BALANCE STILL
LEFT IN CHRISTMAS PARTY FUND
A balance of $74.90 remains from the contributions given for the
annual Christmas party by Palmer merchants, it was announced this
week by A. V. Hagen. A complete statement of receipts and dis
bursements appears below.
Mr. Hagen said it had been suggested to him that the remaining
funds be donated to the “roof fund” of the Valley Hospital. He asks
that all merchants who contributed to the Christmas party fund ex
press their approval or disapproval of the suggestion. The only other
alternative is to allow the balance to remain in a special fund to help
finance next year’s Christmas party.
