It is refreshing to find a guide that does not sell ads and that makes definite, unbiased recom mendations about roads and ser vice.

BUSES PICKUP BREAKS ALL RECORDS "The momentum with which general business, has. rebounded from its all-time low , levels of three months ago doubtless is without parallel in the history of the country," according to Dun's weekly Teport received locally by merchants yesterday. The report continues. "From a position where mer chandise could .not be moved at any price, the nation-wide "buying wave has gathered such force that an actual shortage of goods now is becoming apparent in some trades, with orders in excess of current production capacities. Starting with textiles and shoes, the "movement ' has spread all through the lighter manufacturing branches and now is carrying the basic Industries into new high ground for the last two years at least. "At no time in the past decade has an upward swing been so sharp or a forward movement so wide in the scope it has attained in such a brief space of time. Definite evidences of gain now are the rule instead of the exception, with the reports this week giving fresh proof that the expansion is reaching all parts of the country in its inclusiveness. Leslie Sunday School Picnics July 4, Turner. Approximately 100 members of the Sunday school of Leslie Methodist church picnicked in a grove bordering the banks of the millstream near Turner yester day. Joining with them for the day were a group from the Turn er Methodist church. O. W. Em mons, Salem attorney, was speak er for the occasion. A few of the younger members of the party braved the cold wat ers of the stream and the nearby pond, while most of the picnickers enjoyed baseball, horseshoes and races of various types. SWIMMING POOL READY SILVERTON, July 4 Silver- ton's swimming pool has .been cleaned out and is now ready for the public again. The pool was cleaned by order of the city coun cil and the gravel taken from the pool in the creek was used for road work within the city. POINTS WAY TO SLIMNESS - ; i i ; : o .-V' t i IV V-'V. Tt x--- I- 7 - A Jimmy Murphy, creator of "Toots and Casper", who has started Statesman readers on healthy weight reducing diet. Reduce With Toots" New Slogan; Scientific Diet, Exercise Methods Shown Come on, all yon Toots and Casper fans! Here is something that The Oregon Statesman has secured especially for you.

SAFETY VALVE (Continued from page 4) rate supervision and tariff co-ordination between all classes of haulers. "The association of operators, Allied Truck Owners, Inc., of Ore gon, will sponsor tariff building and co-ordination and for the pur pose will immediately organize a department as an adjunct of the association, to undertake this work to facilitate the huge Job that faces Oregon in bringing all highway usage under the new act. Bakers Discuss 1 Y Stabilization of Price of Bread PORTLAND, Ore.. July 4. (AP) Retail bakers of the Port land area, meeting here last night to discuss stabilization of the baking industry under the nation al industrial: recovery act, ex pressed' the opinion that a mini mum retail price of nine cents for a- one-pound loaf of bread in this vicinity should be established. The price will be recommend ed to a Joint committee of the Oregon Retail Bakers' association. the Oregon Bakers' club and the Oregon Wholesale Bakers' asso ciation. The group will meet again Wednesday to discuss pri ces and other matters to be in cluded in a code of fair competi tion for the industry in. Oregon. "The different groups affected by the law are now working on tariffs as groups and the associa tion -effort will be particularly valuable in keeping these differ ent services in line and bringing about satisfactory ' co-ordination of the different types of highway users. ' "July 1, truck users of Oregon highways undertake to pay 43 pr cent of the state of Oregon's in come In the ensuing year. "This will be advertised to tbe public by the truck and bus op erators, as well as the fact that . this same new schedule for trucks and buses makes possible tbe 35 flat license fee for passenger cars, something the general pub lic has been clamoring for for many years." They propose to use the space on the side of their trucks that was used in the campaign against the West bill as a moving poster advertising that "these trucks make possible the $5 flat fee for cars." What they should put on this space is that they have shov ed enough of the cost onto tbe contract carrier and private truck owner so that you can lic ense your car for $5 a year. I have little fault to find w.ith the legislature. I thing under the circumstances without any lead ership that they did very well and we have no one to blame but our selves for not looking after our own interests. But when another bill like the West bill comes up before the people, the allied truck owners who deserted us in the legislature will all come home to roost, and the contract carriers and the private truck owners will desert them like a lot of rats from a burning ship. il GRANT MURPHY MICKEY MOUSE ,A Poor Upholstery Job By WALT DISNEY jf( ALU ABOARD, MINNIE !
