You are no doubt aware that under exist Ing priority regulations dairies and other business firms of like character are unable to purchase tires for use in making retail de liveries In some communities con sideration is being given to re stricting dairy deliveries to three times per week; in -others it has been suggested that deliveries be entirely discontinued. We are moi-e fortunate in that our policy of constantly maintaining our tires and equipment at a high standard will, with proper care and reasonable conservation, en ables us to continue our deliveries for some time to come. However, present equipment must be -made to last as long as is reasonably possible. We are certain you will agree this is fully as important to our customers as to ourselves. The slight change in our delivery serv ice will not only conserve tires, gasoline and equipment but will give our employes an opportunity to spend Sundays with their fam ilies, to attend church and enjoy some of the privileges which have long been denied them but which most of you have long enjoyed. We assure you that the unsur passed quality of our milk and other products quality made possible through the utilization of the most modern plant equipment will be maintained. Unless you specify otherwise, after February 8th, and until further notice, our drivers will deliver your usual Sunday supply of milk and cream on Saturday, thus assuring you an adequate supply for the week end. We are certain many of you will find this changed service has definite advantages, and that few of our customers, if any, will be seriously inconvenienced. Curly's Dairy.

"Federalizing the unemploy ment compensation system would renyve it from local au thority," Gov. Sprague wrote. "As it is now, both employers and employes can have a defi nite voice in the enactment of legislation covering unemploy ment compensation and can ex ert immediate influence upon its administration. "The last session of "the Ore gon legislature devoted a great deal of time to a study of the problems in this field and worked out legislation which was gen erally quite satisfactory. "I sincerely trust that you will exert your influence to preserve unemployment compensation as a state system operating accord ing to federal standards." The bill, to which Gov. Sprague objects, provides for federal payments to men temporarily unemployed while their Indus tries are being converted to war production. Gov. Sprague said these bene fits could be provided without disrupting the whole system.
