jX-ar Sir:
1 beg to acknowledge receipt of your favor of , anl note, with
much pleasure your interest in the conservation movement.
vMTilu there has been a jiiost wonderful response to mam' of the requests'
made upon the people of this county, there are a number of necessary niove
. , 'iients tlmUiave jjo receive ayet, tlie i-ordial -o-operaiiou ol'the tyjbli... As
long as the credit and delivery systems are maintained by so many of our peo
ple, it is going to be impossible to get the necessities of life down to as low a
price as they should be. In my judgment, THERE IS AN ARTIFICIAL
COST PLACED UPON NECESSITIES BY THE UNNECESSARY CREDIT
SYSTEM. I .resume I would not be far off the way if T would estimate the
losses of the retail dealers in food products at 10 per cent. This naturally has
to be spread over all sales, making the CASH CUSTOMERS Carry the Bill.
With kind regards, I beg to remain Yours very truly,
V. J!. AY'KU, Federal Food Administrator for Oregon.

methods were correct. ' ' '
Our business has m.,cccilcit because our business methods
are correct, they are modern; some people insist on doing
things the wuy their dad did- them they don't know that the
world is chfinn;injr, that we are living in a new age.
We did not know that ji meat market was the place to
look for financial accommodations we have always looked
to the hanks for it.

Superintendent Churchill has an :
liiiportant message, to tho teachers !
printed on the first page of the
booklet, tl is as follows: I
"Memorial day this year has n'
wider meaning than It over had bo- !
fore. Sacred as the day has been In j
our national life because of the sac
tifees of those who have- given theii
lives for the establishment of tht.
principles of liberty and Justice In
our beloved land, this year its 1
meaning has been broadened and
enriched by our participation In the'
war. Along with our own soldiers. J
lui'ii of other nations have fought'
and died that these principles might
be estimated thrjiighout the whole j
world.
.' "li Is fitting, then, that In our ob
servance of memorial day this year 1
we give thought to its widened
scope, anil that we rel.der tribute to
the memory or that vast multitude'
of men of all (lie n.itions w-lio In the
