EURO'S PURE FOOD BILL OPPOSED Delegation of Portland Jobbers : Appears Before Legislature v ' o Protest. CLAIMS BILL IS NOT LIKE NATIONAL LAW Nothing Said in Measure Aout Pure Ir Bg9 Covop All. Hulk. mJY'U as Package Goods Objection to Weight Statements. 1 (Aperial Dtaaefc to Tha Joeraal.)-. Salem. Or., Ken. XI. That the Burn Tfiure food, . correct . welg-ht bill. , now pending- before the senate, la not copy of tin national pure food law aa la com monly supposed.' waa contended by a delegation . of Portland Jobbers before the senate committee on horticulture and the Multnomah delegation vester- arlarnnon. It mmm argued by J. w. Teal, attorney for the jobbers, that .several sections of the national pure fond law are omitted from the Burns' bill, and that tbe Burns' bill contains several sections and clauses not found In the national law. . In eponse to a question by Attorney Teal, Burns stated that retailers are exempted from the requirement that the correct weight of each packer must be stamped on It.. It was eraued that this was not the case, and that la real ty every retailer, Jobber, and farmer in tUeetate Is required to stump on every article sold the true weight. It waa asserted that this would require that very paper or sack of groceries,, every rackaic of meat wrapped .in paper by a retail butcher, and every article aold by any person In sny sort of container be stamped with the correct net weight sxt the merchandise contained. "It waa probably Intended to cover only package goods, but it covers all goods sold In bulk aa well." said TeaL "It is the general understanding of the :' .:iiy.:u:. 1 ' : - After Inventory Sale ., The "price "are cut to '-1 the quick. .

Sold on easy payments T7jJ $1 Down, $1 a Week rnnaiimers throughout this state that the iJurns' bill Is a ropy of tba national pure food and drugs art. when such Is not the case. Ths national pure food and drugs act covers impure and adul terated drugs, medicines sad Uquora to the same extent that It does foods. It Is as important to have pure drugs a to have pure foods. TheBurns bill Is silent as to drugs." "The Portland Jobbers appeared be fore the committee to protfit against the paaaage of the Burns' bill. They stated that many kinds of foods, euoh aa sugar, salt, evaporated fruit, and oth er things would lose weight la shipment and whn stored In dry warehouses, and that It would be unfair to charge the Jobbers with giving short weights when loaa of weight had been caused by such unavoidable conditions. . After appearing before the senate aommlttee In the afternoon the Jobbers appeared before, the Multnomah" delega tion last night and aaked the members to vote against the bill when It comes up for final paaaage. Among the Port land men who came to the capltol to protest agalnat the Burns bill were E. Ehrman. Allen Lewis. I. Lang, H, Ilahn and J. N. TeaL '..' .

Postal clerks and carriers In Portland are rejoicing today because of the pas sage of the postal bill In congress yes terday which provides for an annual In crease In salary for their branch of ths service. - heretofore ths clerks received an in crease In salary at the discretion of tha postmaster, and the scheme created die- According to tha new plan,, each clerk will be allowed an Increase of 1100 a year until -hls annual salary reaches 11.200. Tha carriers' Increase has al ways been regulated by law, but tha new bill provides that the maximum salary limit in their case shall bo 11,20 a year Instead of 11,000. Postmaster Mlnto la also happy be cause of the provisions of tha new bill, and says that It will relieve him of un pleasant duties In ths matter of select ing men for an increase. In speaking of the effects of tho new act, Mr. Mlnto said today:- ; ;.,-.'.: . Iftnto reels mellarad. "Greater harmony will prevail In all' postof flees now. Heretofore there has always been dissatisfaction 'about tho office at the time salaries wars raised, but because of tha rules there was no way to avoid' this. For Instance, I would receive a letter from tho depart ment to increase tha salary of to per cent of a certain olaaa of clerks. It there were 10 clerks In that class, five were sure to be disappointed. I re member last year that. In order, to de termine which clerke efcoald -re lead, I cailed tn -Aaalatant Postmaster Ship ley - and Postof flee Inspector Riches. After conferring with these men I de cided to sDDoint those which In our Judgment were entitled to first call for a raise. That waa tha best that could be done; but, nevertheless, the remain ing ones of that particular ciass reit disappointed because they had not re. celved an Increase. - ; . , Better Work Will Beet. "There were eeveral points to bs con sidered in determining an increase fot the men. The principal one was senior ity of service. The faithfulneaa and honesty of a clerk also entered Into tha test, and when one tried to settle a long all three lines the task waa difficult and generally resulted In soma ef ths clerks feeling aggrieved. Bo you can see that I, for one. am very Jaappy to have vthe new arrangement - "The law is one tiiat snouia nave oaes passed years ago.
