We have watched prices go up for some time, and had hoped that we would not have to raise the price of our products. However, every thing pertaining to the dairy industry has gone up in the past few months. Producers are having to pay $100 a ton for dairy feed—^therefore, we are having to pay the farmer more per gallon for milk. The cost of bottles has * • also increased. Do you know that a quart milk bottle costs $.07 ajid they are still hard to get? Milk prices have increased comparatively tittle since 1941, but other food products have gone up nearly 100 percent. We intend to give you the same high quality of milk you halve always received, but in order to do this we are forced to do like others are having / to do. We hope this is only a temporary situation and just as soon as we can lower the price of our product you may be sure we will do it. We appreciate your cooperaition and assure you of ours at all times.

But it is omy one of 44 “rules” demands filed by the leaders of the operating unions. If all these demands were granted, they would cost the railroads an added BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR. Increased Wages, Too On top of these “rules” changes, the leaders of the operating unions have filed an additional demand for a wage increase of over 30 per cent. If granted, this would be an added cost to the rail roads of $400,000,000 a year. $468,000,000 To Non-Operating Employes In addition to this, an Arbitration Board has just granted a wage in crease of 15 H cents an hour to the mil lion employes represented by the 17 non-operating unions. This will cost the railroads $468,000,000 a year. Where Will The Money Come From? Where will all the money come from to pay these increases? They total sev eral times as much as the railroads made in 1946 or will make in 1947. In July, the railroads filed an appli cation for increased freight rates to close the gap which then existed be tween wage and material costs, and railroad revenues. Since then it has been necessary, because of further in creases in wages and material costs, to supplement that petition and to ask for an additional freight rate increase. No other course is open. Railroads Do Not Run For Employes Alone Railroads are operated for the benefit of not one, but several groups—ship pers, passengers, employes, stock holders, and the general public. The interest of all must be served—and that cannot be done unless the rail roads can operate efficiently and eco nomically, and unless they are allowed to earn sufficient revenue to provide the kind of transportation service thia country must have.
