Butts told the County Court that
it's "ironical" that in Douglas
County, "perhaps the wealthiest
county of the state," employes are
being paid "the lowest salaries."
He continued: "Twenty - five
cents an hour, or $2 a day, seems
like a big increase, but when we
consider that these employes have
had no increase in salaries since
1951, it amounts to less than 7
cents an hour on a yearly basis,
which will not equal that enjoyed
by other employes in Ihis area."
Employes also asked pay for
time beginning when thoy are re
quired to report to work and end
ing when they report off duty at
their base shops.
Now, according to -Butts, they
are required to report to work at
their shop but aren't paid for trav
el time from the shop to the job.
Representatives of the Roseburg
Central Labor Council were at the
meeting. The county was repre
sented by Hill, Commissioner
Frank Ashley, Roads Dept. Supt.
Floyd Frear and Roadmaster
Durward Owen.
Butts said the County Court
agreed to give all requests Us con

There's not enough food
for you and the bugs
As any backyard gardener knows, you have a fight on
your hands from the moment you turn over your first
spadeful of earth. At every step, funfjus growths,
weed's and insects wait to destroy your lawns, trees,
plants. A disheartening struggle for Greenthumbers
... a round-the-clock fight for commercial farmers.
Fortunately, there's a growing list of weapons you
can wield in the battle against bugs. Some of the most
effective have been developed by Standard's subsidi
ary, California Spray-Chemical Corporation. In 1907,
we brought out the first basic lead arsenate to stop
the codling moth, a rampaging fruit crop destroyer;
later, the invention of new-type summer and dormant
oil sprays safely checked scale and other insects.
Other Standard research achievements have been
chemicals to kill aphis, mites, thrips, and similar suck
ing insects . . . dusts to destroy fungus diseases like
rust, blight, mildew . . . sprays and dusts custom-made
to knock out such enemies as the grasshopper, boll
weevil, hornworm. Other pest-killers boost milk pro
duction of dairy herds, help beef cattle fatten faster.
One good reason you live in the world's best-fed
nation is because insect invaders have been held back
on our farms, ranches, and orchards, thanks in part
to Standard's constant hunt for new ways to make
petroleum do more things for you.
Standard plans ahead to serve you better
