REVOLT AGAINST
NEW DEAL H.C.0L.
BERKELEY, May 10.—Claiming
that farmers are unjustly. being
blamed for skyrocketing prices of
vital necessities. Mrs. Mary Cleverdon, president of the California
Housewives League has. hurled the
threat of a buyers’ strike unless the
cost of-living comes down.
Ina letter to President Roosevelt,
which contained a sharp warning to
member@ of the state legislature.
‘Mrs, Cleverdon said in part:
“In a meeting held in the Oakland city hall Wednesday afternoon,
April 28, the Housewives League
went on record as commending your
action in calling a halt to further
price fixing legislation by our Corngress.
“We are strongly opposed to price
fixing legislation either by our government at Washington or at Sacra“mento, believing it grossly unfair to
the consuming public and
wrong in principle. It is a generally
recognized fact that consumers
everywhere are unorganized and are
therefore unable to defend . themselves against the injustice of price
control.
“Housewives everywhere.are complaining about the control in the
milk industry, which, in our opinion
penefits only the milk trust and the
big and uowerful city distributors.
We are well aware of the powerful
milk lobby working both at Washington and in our legislature now in
session in Sacramento, and, in the
name of the undernourished children
in our nation, .we hereby protest to
you. The situation

“Wases of workers everywhere
have not\kept pace with increased
costs of the.necessities of life. These

“The artificial contro] set up and
exercised by city distributors everywhere is responsible in a very large
has never been a milk war in California that has not been paid\for by
the dairy farmers. The city distributors, through their organizations who
eontrol the avenues of distribution,
pass on the cost to the producer. He
must pay the bill or lose the market
for his milk. She producers and consumers are the victims of these price
raising schemes.
“The housewives League was organized during the World War, and
learned then how to deal with profiteers. It is our determination now
to use the same methods we: used
during the war—reduce our consupmtion and to use all the influence of our organization toward this
end. Housewives everywhere will cooperate in this movement. They always have.’’
