Re: b’shas hadchak, besides the Igros Moshe YD:5 see Rav Moshe’s letter to Rav Weinfeld from Monsey (the letter is printed in “Hilchos Kashrus” by Rabbi B. Forst of Far Rockaway) where he explained what he meant with his “heter” for cholov stam. Rav Moshe wrote that even though there are rationales for saying that nowadays all dairy processed under government supervision has the status of cholov yisroel, it is still not proper to drink milk except under Jewish supervision, even if it is a bit more expensive or difficult to acquire.
