~ Dear Senator Capper: | 
 
  
 
I request that your Committee institute 
 
a thorough investigation into the activities 
 
of the Public Health Service, especially in- 
- sofar as it relates to safeguarding the milk 
 
sup ly of the nation. 
 
-. The Public Health Sees reaches into 
the states through the Statesand- Municipal 
 Health Boards. 
 
The contention of the United States Pub- | 
 
lic Health Service is that high bacterial 
count in milk is generally indicative of un- 
 
sanitary handling of milk and the presence - 
sof foreign matter in the milk. In this con-- 
 
tention I believe they are correct. Their 
contention is also that pathogenic or dis- 
 
sInvestigation.. 
 
  
  
   
  
  
  
  
  
  
   
   
       
  
  
  
  
  
  
   
   
 
EX 
 
ease germs in milk are cesteree by pas- 
 
| teurization. 
 
In this contention also they may be cor-_ 
rect. Guided by these contentions of the 
United States Public Health Service, and 
 
State Public Health Departments, as wellas 
 
- by local authorities, the Legislature of Geor- 
 
gia and other states have passed legislation 
putting very stringent requirements on pro- 
ducers of milk for bottling purposes. 
 
The Georgia law provides for the sale of | 
 
raw milk that is produced under specified 
requirements and which shows a bacterial 
_count which shall not exceed 50,000 per 
cubic centimeter at any time before delivery 
to the consumer. - 
 
The Georgia law also provides that Grade 
A raw milk, showing a count of not more 
than 50,000 bacteria, may be pasteurized 
and sold as Grade A pasteurized milk. 
 
These laws were passed to safeguard the 
health of children; invalids _and _adults. 
Grade A pasteurized milk under Georgia 
law must not show more than 30,000 bac- 
teria count.  
 
I am mailing you copy, of this weeks 
Georgia Market Bulletin which carries a 
full account of the National Milk Racket. 
 
You will see when you receive this Bulletin - 
 
the first of next week that the United 
States Public Health Service has secured 
the endorsement of many medical authori- 
ties for the pasteurizing of milk, all of 
which endorsements were based upon the 
pasteurization of milk produced under such 
rigid supervision as to make it as whole- 
some and healthful as raw milk. Whole 
 
-milk to be pasteurized as an additional 
 
safeguard.

SECTION 1.:That Section &

amended by substituting the fol- 
lowing paragraph for the first per 
agraph of said section: 
 
Grade A milk is milk produced 
under the provision as set out in 
chapter 53, Article 3 of the Code of 
the City of Atlanta, for 1942, the 
average bacterial plate count of 
which, as determined under Sec- 
tion 43-301 (s) 53-311 of said code, 
does not exceed 200,000. per cubic 
centimeter, or the average micro- 
scopic count of which does not ex- 
ceed 800,000 per cubic centimeter 
if organisms are counted, or the 
 
~ reduction time of which is not less 
than six hours before pasteuriza- 
tion and which _ bacterial plate 
count, as provided * herein, after 
pasteurization shall not exceed 30,- 
000 per cubic centimeter. In order 
to more adequately protect the 
health of the people of Atlanta, all 
Grade A milk sold in the City of 
Atlanta on and after July 17, 1947 
shall be pasteurized. Such milk 
must be produced upon. dairy 
farms conforming with all of the 
following items of sanitation: 
 
SECTION 2. Nothing in this 
amendment shall change or other- 
wise affect sub-sections 1 through

specifically refers to Section 53-301, 
 
sub-section 8, 53-311 of City Code, 
 
_ which it does not repeal, but, makes

Section 53-314 of the. 
 
average bacterial plate count of > 
 
which, as determined under  see-

are counted, or 200,000 per cubic 
centimeter if individual organisms 
 
are counted, dr the average reduc.

eight hours; Provided, that if it is 
 
~to be- pasteurized, the correspond- 
 
ing limits shall be 200,000 per cub- 
 
jie centimeter, 800, 000 per eubie 
 
centimeter, arid six hours, respect- 
ively. .And said-milk must be pro- 
duced upon dairy farms conform-  
 
ing with all of the following items 
 
of sanitation. ie: 
You will note that, under this sec- 
 
tion, 50,000 means 200,000 or 4 to 1. 
Vou will also note that, under this see- 
tion, 200,000 means 800 000 4 in milk that 
 
ZS to be pasteurized, This i is also 4 to 1. 
You will note-that this old section pro-  
 
_ vided that the count should be <le- 
termined under section 53-301, sub- 
section S. You will note that the new 
ordinance also provides for the count | 
to be determined under section 53-301, 
sub-section 8. 
 
With these facts 3 in mind, it should 
 
be clear to a casual reader that the 
 
ordinance adopted as a war measure 
 
and allowed 1 million~ count - -actually 
meant 4 million bacteria in milk to ve 
pasturized. 
 
_ When you think of one-fourth of a_ 
teaspoonful of milk containing 4 mil- 
lion bacteria, you begin to realize what 
kind of slops this means. 
 
4 million to a fourth of a teaspoonful, 
 
16 million to the teaspoonful. How many 
would that be in a quart?

Dear Sir; 
 
Just a word io say that I am im accord: 
with you in what you did and had to say 
in your. editorial of last week, regarding 
the milk situation. You speak so much truth  
as to how it was/made. 
_worked at a dairy where they did just what 
you said, and are still at it, and you. did 
the thing that was right when you stop the 
 
sale of milk of that class, if you will en- 
force your order. I want you to pardon me 
for the bad writing, it is noon-time and I 
 
-am working in the field. Got all my cotton

P..8. 1 might ask you this:  Does your 
Department look after and enforce Jaws 
pertaining. to cruel treatment of. livestock, 
or do we have a law like this in our state. 
 
. If so, please adyise me. if we havent we - 
should have. Well this is about all from

Hon. Tom Linder,  . /

' Dear friend. Mr. 
 
Linder: 
Your agitation of the milk situation ik 
 
of great interest. to me. I have handled dairy 
 
cattle and milk and dairy products for over 
 
| fifty years. 
 
My latest and last venture was in trying 
 
to establish a herd of high quality pure bred 
Jerseys. I was getting along very well in 
 
spite of the Abundant Living selling herd 
 
sires as fast as they were ready and bred. 
_ heifers with frequent regularity, 1 did not 
 
like to sell heifers as a fundamental rule 
 
the value of pasteurizing 
 
in improving the herd is to keep the best 
females, : 
But along came a law passed by the 
 
* Florida Legislature requiring a heavy in- 
| vestment in equipment, improved buildings, 
-et cetera. . 
 
My long years experience in producing  
 
high quality milk enabled me to deliver 
 
milk"so clean it need not be pasteurized. 1. 
 
used a pure buttermilk culture for ripen-_ 
 
ing cream for churning and for preparing 
 
buttermilk and cottage cheese. 
 
But the new law would not even permit 
me to give the milk etc. away. I became 
tired of pouring the whole milk out to pigs 
and chix and calves, and puppies and kit- 
tens, (they liked it O. K.) and finally sold 
 
out, 
 
That law was just another racket hid- 
den under the laudable purpose of assure 
 
? | ing good milk, fit to use. 
 
But all the pasteurizing in a hundved 
years will not make good milk out of bad 
milk. The best plan is to allow farmers to 
 
} produce milk, but see that the milk all the 
| way thru is plese and fit to use, 
 
I was foreman of a small milk receiving 
 
and ice cream plant in which I reduced the 
 
bacteria count from a very high figure to 
practically nothing, just by keeping equip- 
ment clean and sterile, There is no substi-. 
tute forcleanliness. Milk that is low grade, 
 
will be low grade right on. 
 
I hope, my good friend you may find 
 
' something here of interest, at least suffi-- 
cient to justify reading it. Will gladly en- 
 
large on the theme, when and if you will 
 
; 60 request.

It was with a great deal of interest that

I was specially interested in that part of 
your editorial which calied attention to 
matter of overplaying oe value of pas- 
 
teurizing. 
 
May I therefore call your attention to a 
series of articles i in the Rural New-Yorker, 
calling attention to the fallacy of pasteur- 
ized milk, and exposing the lying propa- 
 
_ ganda put over by the milk monopoly and 
v the pasteurizing apparatus people. The

Tt is. heartening to know that there are 
men in public office and a few farm editors 
that will stand up for a program that will 
insure the public pure wholesome milk:

Grade A raw milk has an average

In other, words, under the State Law, 
 
milk to be pasteurized cannot contain 
more than 50,000 bacteria before pas-

Sommissioner of Agriculture to 
 
The State Of Georgia And The City Of Atlanta  
 
Atlanta is a part of the State. The 
 
laws enacted by the Legislature of the  
 
State apply to the city of Atlanta. 
The State has adequate laws for the 
the protection of the health OE the milk 
consumer. 
The State laws are nial more rigid 
 
than anything the city has. 
 
Lhe city can not have a valid law if 
it is in conflict with a State law. 
 
The only possible way to have a safe 
supply of milk is to protect that sup- 
ply locally. 
 
The dairymen of Georgia must pro- 
duce milk for Georgia or Georgia can- 
not have a supply of wholesome milk. 
 
The Georgia farmer must in turn be 
willing to go to the expense and 
trouble of producing clean and whole- 
some milk, 
 
It is my firm poanion to see that the 
 
people of Atlanta and the people of  
 
every other town of Georgia have a sup- 
ply of clean, wholesome milk under 
State laws to which all local authorities 
must bow. 
 
It is my position and my duty as 
 
Commissioner of Agriculture to pro- 
 
tect the health of the people from in- 
sanitary milk. 
 
It is my position and my duty as

It is my duty as Commissioner of 
Agriculture, insofar as within me lies 
to see that the people of the State are 
portectd against impure and un: 
wholesome milk and milk products 
 
even to the extent of addition of harm- 
 
less coloring matter in milk and milk 
products found within the state unfit 
for human consumption. 
 
The dairymen of Georgia must help 
me to,do so by bringing their stand- 
ards of producing up to legal require- 
ments. 
 
he consumers of the State must 
help me do this by giving me their 
whole-hearted backing and cooperation. 
 
The intrests of the dairymen and 
the milk consumers are identical. 
 
The National Milk Racket has suc- 
ceeded in getting former employees 
and paid attorneys in strategic posi- 
tions on milk boards, city councils,

If you will follow on the table 
above to. Grade A to be pasteurized, 
you will see it permits 200,000_and 800,- . 
000 respectively depending | on whether 
you, use the plate count or the direct

You will note from the above table 
that Grade B to be consumed raw per- 
mits 1,000,000 on a plate count with 
4,000, 000 on. direct microscopic count.  
When you apply the logarithmic av- 
erage to these~figures this would pass 
milk on to the ecOngsumer- which carried 
1,500,000 on the plate eount and 6,000,-

_ Tn a great many places in northern 
dairy states the farmer produces milk 
 
and sells it under a special contract. 
 
Often these contracts provide for the 
farmer to be penalized if the bacteria 
count in milk runs above a relatively 
low figure. 
 
If the farmer is delivering milk on 
a basis of 3% percent butterfat, he 1s 
supposed to receive the difference if 
he delivers milk running more than 3.5 
percent butterfat. Lets suppose that 
today he delivers his milk to the Com- 
pany. The Companys man takes a 
sample and the sample is run. in_ the 
Companys laboratory. The Company 
reports the milk as being 4.5 percent or 
5 pereent butterfat, but also reports an 
excess in bacteria count. In that case, 
the farmer is penalized and is made to 
lose all of the butterfat in excess of 
3.) percent because his milk showed 
 
  
 
te 
 
The farmer is penalized under the 
 
claim that it is done in the interest of. 
 
public health. Now if it were actually 
 
done in the interest of public health,  
 
the farmer would not be permitted to 
sell this milk and if the 
bought it, the Company would not be 
 
permitted to sell it if the public health 
 
was really to be protected. 
What actually happens is, that when 
the Company takes the farmer 's milk, 
 
they simply take a part of his butter-. 
 
fat without paying for it. After the 
 
~ Company gets the milk the butterfat 
and the milk is passed onto the con-- 
 
suming public. 
 
The health of the consumer is in no- 
 
way safeguarded by the farmer being 
penalized. It is simply a_ racket 
through which the farmer is penalized 
in favor of the milk racket. -
