...officials of dairymen's co-ops met privately with Nixon and Hardin. According to Hardin, they argued that increases in their costs demanded a boost in the support price. Two days after that, Hardin raised the support price from $4.66 to $4.93 per 100 Ibs. of liquid milk, a move that has cost the Government $125 million in subsidies in the past year and that has raised prices to consumers.
