McKeough, is follows: "Under the provisions of maxl- num price regulation No. 329, dis- ributors are limited in the amount vhich they may pay to producers or milk Intended for human con- umption in fluid form to the highest price paid by them in anuary, 1943. As a result, dis- ributors in Freeport may not pay roducers more than $2.70 per cwt. or 3.5 per cent milk. This amount not sufficient to assure a normal upply of fluid milk for human onsumption in Freeport; in view of he fact that condenseries and heese plants located in the area re currently paying $2.50 per cwt.

or 3.5 per cent milk. In order to revent the threatened diversion to uch condenseries and cheese plants, well as to the Rockford and hicago milk sheds, distributors lust be permitted to pay at least 12.85 per cwt. The disparity between the price paid by condenseries and that paid by distributors arises from the fact that dairies must pay from 20 cents to 35 cents per cwt. in excess of condensery prices by reason of extra expense involved when producing milk for human consumption. "On the basis of information submitted, it appears that distributors of milk in Freeport, cannot be expected to absorb the cost increase without compensating increases in their prices.

The accompanying order establishes a price of 13'i cents at retail and 11U cents at wholesale which, with respect to most sellers, amounts to an increase of cent per quart. In addition, distributors are relieved of the necessity of allowing quantity discounts heretofore in effect which should result in additional revenue. In March, 1942, distributors were paying $2.07 per cwt. for 3.5 per cent milk, which amount had by January, 1943, increased to $2.70, and will probably by virtue of the attached order now be increased to $2,85 per cwt. This represents an increase of 78 per or approximately 'i cent per quart.

Although the increase in distributor prices is not enough to offset the cost increases, it should be sufficient together with economies in distribution which may placed into effect to assure the continuance of operation on the part of the distributors."

Warner of Dixon, past national exalted ruler ef Order of Elks, when he a patriotic address before Freeport tary club this noon during meeting at the Country club. the club will not meet next Monday, July 5, because of the national holiday, observance of this event ww held today. Tribute to RoUrlans Mr. Warner's talk was-as follows: "The members of Rotary deserve much credit for the effectiveness of their accomplishments in making this a better world in which to live.

Their efforts on behalf of crippled children, their work in establishing the siunmer camps, and many other benefactions, have proven the merit of the organization and have brought about Its success. The achievements of the organization in the past are most commendable and noteworthy. "During the past we have lived in a land of wonderful opportunity. Thousands of young men and young women have achieved success because they were willing to devote their energies and efforts to acquirement of an exalted position among men. What a delightful nemory those achievements are, but what of the future? No nation and 10 individual can succeed merely upon pride of ancestry, richness of in- icritance, or glory in past achieve- nents.

We must be willing to per- orm our duties now. "Fateful Hour" "We have come to a fateful hour hat may foredoom the crumbling of he world. The war threatens all of us. We are playing the game. The cards have been dealt, and we await the result anxiously, but with a courageous determination.

We aro fighting enemies that consider human life the cheapest commodity that plays a part in the conflict. Oceans are no longer a protection. A young man in Rockford still in his teens has made 15 trips to Egypt, Africa and Russia to deliver bombing planes, and when we consider his accomplishments how insignificant we feel over what we are doing ourselves. "Too many of us have lost the art, of simple living. A Jap family will live on what a frugal American family would waste.

Too many of our people have been educated Into the belief that the world owes them a Success and good citizenship come only from work and thrift, from individual effort and initiative. You don't achieve success by merely floating down stream. You'cannot bottle-feed a people and make them worthwhile. We are being told that we must police the world, but there is grava danger in that course. That would border on dictatorship.

Honesty and confidence require no shield of secrecy. 1 Must Sacrifice "If we don't make the same sacrifice here at home as our boys 'airs making in uniform we are not doing our full duty. The boys in uniform will do their part and do it well if we give them the munitions and supplies. They left a land of opportunity.

Will we preserve it for them while they are gone? "About 50 years ago the great English author Bryce, in his book entitled American Commonwealth' said that the purchasing power of a dollar in the hands of American governments had no reater purchasing power than halt that amount in the hands of the average industrial. We wonder sometimes what the same author would have said today. Fortunately, ongress appears to be awakening to the need for greater economy. Eternal vigilance is still the price of liberty and whatever happens there must be no lessening of spirit. There must be the will to endure, the determination to succeed whatever may happen."
