Prices for some basic commodities have already gone up. Increases in Safeway’s retail prices on these items reflect the rise in wholesale cost, over which Safeway has no control. It is a fundamental Safeway policy to earn only a small profit on each sale. Safeway pledges that during the period of war emergency it will not) change this policy; and that in the future, as heretofore, it will make every effort through improved methods to reduce distribution cost—the difference between what the farmer gets and the consumer pays. You will always be able to buy from Safeway at the lowest prices available anywhere. Consumers may assist materially in preventing unwarranted price increases by continuing their purchases on a normal scale. There are adequate supplies of food stuffs for every American. Hysterical buying which strips retail and wholesale stocks creates artificial scarcity, which pushes prices to abnormal levels. Machinery exists within the government to control production, storage and release of commodities, imports, exports, quotas and prices —if it should become necessary to employ these meiihods to protect the economic welfare of the country. Young eyes especially need good light for easy seeing. That’s one reason why it is so important to use the right size light bulbs in your lamps and fixtures. Yet surveys show that 2 out of 3 bulbs used are the wrong size for safe seeing. Oregon Gas & Electric Co. RIVERVIEW — (Special to The Eagle)—«Riverview is suffering from lack of water.
