Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The Clinton, Iowa, milk market provides examples of some of the problems relative to: Regulating a small market; the growth and eventual intermingling of milk supply and distribution areas; and the difficulties encountered and created by the Office of Price Administration in establishing and maintaining price ceilings during World War II. Because of their nearness to the Clinton milk marketing area, the Quad Cities (Davenport, Iowa, and Rock Island, Moline, and East Moline, Illinois) and Dubuque markets influenced the establishment and evolution of the Clinton milk marketing order. Histories of the Quad Cities and Dubuque markets are included in this publication, mainly to account for their influence on the Clinton market.
