KI.AMATTI FAU.S. OnF.CON PAGE TimVTKKN It will pay every consumer., .every dairy farmer ...to read this: I'M KNCIMM anteed by 1 11B NIC faray .Stores Upon passage of the bill for milk reform by a majority vote of 332 X YES, Safeway pledges that the following steps will be taken: ! The price of Lucerne milk in the Portland market and in Salem will be 20VV Vzjf less than the present minimum price of 22 now fixed by the milk controller for both door step and store sales. This will be done without any reduction in the price paid to producers. 2. Safeway stores in upstate communities, selling milk purchased from local distributors, will retail such milk at competitive prices. When arrangements can be made for local supplies, the price will be at least Vitf per quart less than, the prevailing doorstep price. It is our policy to offer local dairymen a market for their milk. (We are already buying milk from Salem area producers.) 0. Safeway will undertake to maintain existing gross retail margins on milk. These vary, but it is presently 2 in Portland. The reduction in Portland and Salem retail prices will be made entirely from the excessive wholesale profit now being made by our Lucerne plant. See certified statement below. 4. Safeway guarantees that'it will pay dairymen at hast as much as they are now receiving. We are paying our present suppliers a premium over state -fixed minimums; and will continue to pay a premium on quality milk, . I 5. It will be Safeway policy to maintain a price for Lucerne milk at least Vitf below the prevailing doorstep prices. Should the new administrator of the milk reform law increase producer prices," we will increase our retail price only by the amount of the increased price, rounded to the nearest Vif. TEAT lARCK ' cot," ,u B Thus, SAFEWAY GUARANTEES TO GIVE YOU RICHER MILK at LOWER PRICES and... we believe that other efficient milk distributors can and will reduce prices in line with the reduction herein pledged by Safeway. We believe too, ; v that home-delivered prices will not increase. Lower store prices will hold down home-delivered prices. SAFEWAY STORES, INCORPORATED Cetli and Profit!
