No package can be more than 100 inches length and girth combined. The possibility of spoilage or handling damage poses a problem in sending goodies abroad. Candy and cookies are probably the besti risk. The best way to pack thenr is in a large can sealed with tape. LaKe or novelty breads can be packaged quite well by taking them to one of the many custom canneries in the area. This is also a good way to send many of the more perishable items. Its cheap and simple. Food Is Favorite Cheeses almost take care of themselves. All sorts of canned delicacies such as pickles, olives, fancy fish or other meat prepara tions, are easily packaged. If items canned in jars are sent, packaging should be exceptionally sturdy, Other durable items popular with servicemen are sausages and other cured meats, canned fruit and packaged or canned nuts. Although food is the favorite, some space might be given such gifts as cameras, electric razors, film and hobby items, depending on the desires of the individual and the practicability of those items In his area. I Currency Unwise Prohibited are inflammable items including matches and light er fluid. Liquors, of course, are not mailable by law.

Non-fuel benefits (time saved) are estimat ed at $176,476 for the proposed by-pass, $48,117 for the old high way if improved. . Although Sutherlin citizens had little complaint with the project, they did make six proposals which they want adopted before they are entirely satisfied. The fiist, that the freeway oe made an overpass over Highway 225 had already Deen planned Dy tne commission. Likewise with the second and third proposals that. one. four roads like the new "99" with High way 225, and two, signing and lighting on the new 99 be of high est state standards, and a divided highway at the access be con structed. Another proposal, that me present i-acilic Highway con tinue to be maintained for inter community traffic between Oak land and Sutherlin, also had been planned by the commission. The two remaining Sutherlin suggestions, that a jog in Highway 225 at the city limits be removed and this road be leveled and wid ened, and that adequate means of access be given residents south and west of the new relocation, had not been planned but will be considered, the commission said. These proposals would give Sutherlin a "reasonable opportun ity for future growth insofar as highway communication is con cerned," the Sutherlin committee declared. They will offer no ob jection to the new road if "ade quate and careful consideration" is given these proposals, they said. Though Oakland will also be by-passed by the proposed route, the local committee there had no objections to the project. In fact, many agreed that the by-pass was badly needed and business would not suffer. The Sutherlin people have expressed the fear that bus iness there might suffer somewhat because of the re-routing of traffic over a relocated highway. How ever, no estimate of the possible loss of business was made.
