Oil Company Ask
Employ Silence
On Military Moves
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 20
The following request Is being
made today of all employes of
the Standard Oil Company of
California by H. D. Collier, pres
ident:. "Every member of this com
pany, must do his utmost to help
win this war. In every possible
way we must aid the govern
ment and the military forces.
One of the most Important ways
of contributing to success Is to
protect the army and the navy
by refraining from discussing
their activities. We are in con
tact with the armed forces at
many points. Our employes of
ten observe army and navy ac
tivities. These things must not
be revealed. Keep such infor
mation to yourself. Don't even
tell your friends. A casual com
ment about' the movement of
ships, naval or merchant, or
about the movement of troops
might be of great value to the
enemy and lead to a disaster.
Military authorities are pleading
that the public refrain frorrj gos
sip and the spreading of rumors.
"We have here a most serious
duty. Therefore, my earnest re
quest to all employes Is to 'Serve
in silence. Don't reveal military
information.' "

steep price advance In the soy
bean market today Injected some
support Into the entire grain
trade.
Beans were up at one stage
almost the 6 cent daily limit fol
lowing reports that there may
be some revision of the ceilings
placed on certain fats and oils re
cently. The advance In grains was
held to fractions, with invest
ment and commercial trade con
tinuing on a restricted scale be
cause of uncertainty regarding
price ceilings. The bright out
look for winter wheat production
next summer, with a crop al
most as large as this year's in
prospect despite the unusually
small acreage, had a depressing
effort In tho wheat pit. .

BE ABOVE
CORVALL1S, Dec. 20,; AP
Production of food and feed by
Oregon farmers next year will
be far above quotas assigned
to this state on the basis of
present plans, according to a
summary of signups obtained
from 05 per cent . of Oregon
farms.
R, B. Taylor, Adams, chair
man of the USDA defense
board, said reports from all 36
counties have been compiled
showing promises of production
schedules covering types of
food, feed and seed particularly
needed under war conditions
here and abroad. Production of
milk, eggs, and pork promise to
be exceptionally high.
Percentage increases planned
tor 1042 over 1941 follow:
Milk, 19 per cent; milk cows.
18 per cent; hogs, 38 per cent;
eggs, 36 per cent; sheep, 10 per
cent; beef cattle to be mar
keted, 12 per cent; sugar beets,
31 per cent; corn, 7 per cent;
barley, 61 per cent; rye for
grain, 17 per cent; hay, 0 per
cent; dry beans, 63 per cent;
fiber flax, 8 per cent; flax seed,
10 per cent; rye grass seed, 18
per cent; winter legume seed,
33 per cent; vegetables, 13 per
cent, and farm gardens, 11 per
cent.
Oregon is Increasing the
acreage of cover crop seeds to
meet demands In the south
where the winter legumes will
help meet the nitrate shortage.
Oregon alone waa asked to meet
the cover crop seed goal, said
Taylor.
Taylor also said fanners will
need priorities on crawler type
tractors and electrlo motors,
but all equipment Is getting so
short that speed In repairing
machinery and ordering neces
sary parti and new equipment
Is essential, he added. ' , .

The new rates wifl 'be 4c a column inch higher than
those at present. The Herald and News have been,
able to hold off a rate raise thus far, in spite of the
recent rising costs of operation, but it is now neces
. sary. to increase revenue to make ends meet.
We believe that advertisers will appreciate the fact:
that in the past ten years our. p a id , circulation (the
real value of your inch of advertising) has been near
ly doubled." Arid an inch of advertising under the new
rates still costs less in The Herald and News than it
did ten years ago. ;. y L
We also believe that advertisers will appreciate the
fact than inthe past ten years our number of em-,
ptoyes has' been materially increased, and that the
basic wage scale for printers has gone up from 85c
an hour to $1.20 an hour . . . adding our bit to the pros
perity of the community. .
Year by year The Herald and News have given more
value for the advertiser's dollar. In these days of cur
tailed supplies of merchandise it is more necessary;
than ever before to concentrate your advertising
where it is most productive. Use more Herald and
News advertising in 1942.
