P P WEEKEND EDITION and Vicinity. CMS AGREE T ELMINATE Distributors' Group Would Establish Margei Area REGION TO INCLUDE NASSAj SUFFOLK Would Allow Regulation | Of Distribution In Two Counties There will not be a milk rice cutting war in Nassau or Suffolk counties. That question was definitely decided at a special meeting of about 50 members of the Nassau County Milk Distribu- tors association in the Free- port Elks club, ygsterday aft- arnoon, .to . clarify .the un- rettled conditions caused by the dissolution of the State Milk control board and the consequent price cutting war that is now raging among dis- tributors in the metropolitan area. Seeks Separaie Area 'The association also decided, unanimously, to petition the state department | of agriculture and markets to make Nassau and Sul- folk counties a separate marketing area, with power to regulate its prices and to keep outsiders from distributing milk in the territory. At present, the two island coun- ties are considered a part of the metropolitan marketing district and are obliged to follow the price trends set by the city distributing agencies. Action was taken after Robert athan, manager of the Freeport vision of Fred Beers, Inc., urged a united stand against price cut- ting and the maintenance of cur- rent prices. He pointed out that with distributors obliged by law to maintain certain wage levels and sanitary standards, it would be suicidal to engage in cut-throat competition. \If we stand together in this crisis,\ he maintained, \the situa- tion will eventually adjust itself. There is room for all of us on Island, one of the most fer- tile tories in the milk distrib- uting business and we have noth- ing to gain by fighting one an- other.\ Outsiders Flood Market He charged that outside dis- tributors, taking advantage of the chaotic conditions cat by the dissolution of the milk control board, are flooding Long Island with milk in an attempt to wreck the market. Frank A. Kent, ident of the Nassau County Ni Mile Pro- users. association, also urged the Ibutors not to engage in a price cutting war. we whe toe tet Arid companies represen e Products company,. dheMeld company, Sheffield Farms Company, Inc., Fred Beers, Inc., M.

Transfer Of Monies To Exempt Units | A widespread movement among | Nassau volunteer fire departments to create exempt firemen units for | preservation of departmental | funds in the event of changes fore- [seen after the new county charter becomes effective was disclosed | today with the presentation of two bills before the legislature legaliz- | ing the procedure for Hewlett fire department. - Herman Introduces Bills ‘ The bills were introduced by As- | semblyman Harold P. Herman at| the request of William H. E. Jay, counsel to the Hewlett department, to settle the question of legality of | creating an exempt unit and trans- | ferring department funds to it. The | Hewlett -exempt ~association was | formed last year and half of the $7,500 fund in the department treasury transferred to it before: the question of legality arose. Numerous other fire departments; in Nassau have followed the same | course, it was reported. ~ | Fear that questions may arise over disposition of departmental funds in the event volunteer units are dissolved or merged after the charter becomes operative has in- spired shifting surplus funds to the exempt units, it was reported. The funds have been built up over | a period of years, principally | through the 2 per cent. fee given | to volunteer departments by law on all fire insurance written by | \foreign\ companies.

Wa-Hoo! We Win Cululoo Baffles Most Of Treasure Hunters In - Branch Contest ' The spirit of Cululoo, Indian chieftain buried beneath a monument erected in his memory at Woodsburgh, arose to block most of the couples taking part in a treasure hunt and gave the prize to a home * boy, Martin Steiner of Wood- mere. Steiner brought his car in far ahead of a score of other parties taking part in last night's hunt, sponsored by the Young People's Fellowship of Trinity church, Hewlett, prin- cipally because of his knowl- edge of the dead chief. \Wa-hoo wa-hoo, Cululoo, \Hardly a man remembers you.\ That was the first clue in the hunt and by the time other | treasure. seekers . got around to finding out what it meant and locating the monu- ment, Steiner and his party, including Martin Fink, John Brower and Ernest Rausner were halfway through the nine other clues. They covered the list, taking them to Far Rockaway and Lynbrook, as well as The Branch, in one hour flat. Finding a postoffice \on a one-way street, next to a store and near a choo-choo\ proved troublesome to some of the hunters. It proved to be Hew- lett postoffice. The hunt -was .planned -and directed by Rudy Hildebrandt. It was one of the first social activities sponsored by the re- cently-organized Fellowship. Proceeds of the ticket sale will benefit the fellowship treas- ury.
