Word has been received by

ters; Al, Katherine, Carl, John,
William, Herman, Bertha, Albeit
and George. 'Of these Carl, John,
William, Herman and George are
in the armed forces.
Private Miller entered the ser

was received bearing th.c head
ing "With the 24th (victory) divi

ing as follows; -
"Private First Class Jacob Mil

Sharply in Month
Portland Has Best
Stocks; Sugar in
Most Areas
SAN FRANCISCO, July 3 (UP)
The bureau of labor statistics
reported today that, while the
west coast is supplied adequate
ly with sugar and butter, meat
supplies decreased more sharply
between May 15 and June 15
than elsewhere in the nation. .
William A. Bledsoe, , BLS re
gional director, said meat was
available in fewer stores in early
June than at any mid-winter
period in the last 15 months. The
announcement was made after a
comparison with' 56 large cities. ;
More Meat .
. Portland led the coast in meat
stocks. On June 15 only three
In every 10 stores were out of
beef there, whereas in Seattle
and Los Angeles only half tho
stores had beef.
Portland again had veal three
times .out of ten and pork loin and
ham In seven of 10 stores .when,
other .coast cities were all out.
Even frankfurters were scarce in
Los Angeles.
Butter was. sold continuously
throughout surveyed cities except
in Seattle where one in every 10
stores lacked1 it. Sattle also had
the most acute margarine short
age, with 78 per cent of the stores
out.
Portland and Seattle were high
in lard, cooking and salad oils,
but 68 percent of the Los Ange
les stores had no lord and were
inaderuatoly supplied with oils.
All Los Angeles stores had
canned fruits, but 82 percent of
Portland's stores and half of Se
attle's markets were out with
pineapple In "particular virtually
unobtainable. Canned asparagus
was sold in all but 11 percent ol
Los Angeles stores, 82 percent o
those in Portland and 6 percent
of those In Seattle.
All stores surveyed in the three

Tax Stamp Deadline
Extended to July 11
PORTLAND, July 3 J. W.
Maloney, collector of internal
revenue, stated, he has assigned
all available field deputies of his
office to check motor vehicles to
see if the pwjners have purchased
the federal $5 - auto tax stamp
which should be on all cars July
! ......
Maloney said all motor vehicle
owners are required by law to
have the tax stamp posted on
their windshield July 1, 1945,
showing payment of the tax for
the year beginning that date.
While the law provides penal
ties for delinquency, the assertion
of these penalties will be with
held until July 11. All motor
vehicle operators apprehended on
or after July llfwill be liable to
a penalty of $5 or more in addi
tion to the cost of the stamp.
These stamps can be purchased
at nil post offices or from the col
lector of internal revenue at Port
land. In order to avoid unneces
sary penalties, owners of motor
