Abstract

Dairy farmers who were to have been stilled by fair-price provisions in the marketing codes and agreements of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration have once more broken out into insurrection. It is a continuation of last year's revolt and it presages more trouble ahead in the form of price wars and new strikes. The revolt is of two types, first, against the government and, second, against the powerful distributors, universally characterized by the farmers as the "milk trust." Fundamentally, both are the same revolt, for dissatisfaction with the government arises from its condonation of unfair practices carried on by the distributors.
