PROTECTION OF STATE,
FEDERAL LAWS ASSURED
If Mrs. America’s teen-age son
or daughter goes to work in a food
processing plant during summer
vacation, she’s assured that it will
b‘e under the protection of the
state and federal laws. Thus the
health of the young worker will
be safeguarded and at the same
time plants will be assured more
efficient work, fewer absences and
accidents. All establishments en
gaged in canning, quick freezing,
dehydrating, drying and packing
fruits, vegetables and seafoods are
subject to the child-labor provi
sions of the fair labor standards
act if they produce any goods for
shipment in interstate commerce.
If the state law establishes a high
er standard than the federal law,
the state law must be followed.
SHORTAGES MAKE
DETAILS EVIDENT
Before war-born shortages be
gan to th-eaten any operations of
Mrs. America’s household, she took
most gadgets and equipment for
granted but shortages bring to
light the myriad details which made
a household tick. For example,
when squeezing oranges for break
fast fruit juice, most women pro
bably are not aware of a change
because of the war. The coating
of shellac which used to cover
oranges
to, prevent excessive
shrinkage in transit is too preci
ous and scarce for this purpose
during wartime. So wax coating
has taken its place.

Having Trouble Getting Help?
So are we. Like you, we’re faced with the biggest
fjroduction job in our history. And, like you, we’ve
ost many of the men who used to help us.
Yet that’s only part of the story. Every day, on
farm and factory, there’s something new to test
the skill of those running the business. Not only get
ting help, but—to mention a few others—rising costs,
making a fair profit, and getting aside reserves for a
rainy day. Essentially, those problems are the same
for farm and factory, though they may at times differ
in size.
<
But it is that thing called "management,** that
peculiarly American ability to think through problems
no matter how tough, that is helping to see us through '
today.
It is this skill in management that farmers and
businessmen have most in common, a skill which
insures the realization of our determination to
produce all that’s needed for our country today, and,
tomorrow, to make a fair living through greater serv
ice to our fellow Americans. General Electric Company,

Oregon’s new “use fuels tax
law” which provides that users
of diesel fuel, butane and other
fuels except gasoline, must pay
the tax direct to the state, is ef
fective after July 1 of this year.
The law, enacted at the recent
session of the state legislature,
changes the old law under which
the state collected the tax from
the vendor. Now, the tax will be
collected only from the user.
Trucks using fuels other than
gasoline will be required to dis
play a windshield sticker desig
nating the vehicle for which fuel
taxes are being paid. The emblem,
issued without fee from the secre
tary of state’s office, is round,
about two and one-half inches in
diameter, with a red and yellow
design.
Robert S. Farrell, secretary of
state, emphasized the fact that the
new law on highway fuels taxes
applies only to those operating ve
hicles using diesel, butane or some
fuel other than gasoline.
LESS TIRES AVAILABLE
Under a revised OPA ration
order made public recently, an
applicant u eligible for grade III
tires (which are used or recap
ped) if he possesses a mileage ra
tion of 240 or less miles per
month and uses his vehicle for
any purpose which would entitle
him to a supplemental mileage ra
tion under ration order 5-C, if he
needed the additional mileage. The
revision was made because stocks
of grade III tires ar/ inadequate
to meet demands.

Slaughter Figures
Are Due July 15
Every local slaughterer and
butcher who holds
permit to
slaughter livestock for sale of
meat will be required to submit
evidence by July 15, to substan
tiate the amount of livestock
slaughtered during the period —
in 1941 or 1942—upon which
his current quota is based, the
war food administration said.
Purpose of the ruling is to es
tablish a more uniform system
of permits and quotas and also
to adjust those quotas already
issued, so that they will represent
the normal share of total slaught
er for each section of the country.
Because of the rapidity with which
the permits originally were issued
the policy in granting the quotas
varied somewhat from section to
section.
Requirement Is Order
The new requirement is con
tained in director food distribu
tion order 27.3. Submission of the
evidence must be made to the
county war meat committee of the
county war board where the per
mit was issued.
The permit of any local slaught
er or butcher who fails to furn
ish such evidence on time may be
revoked. The evidence, which will
show from whom he bought live
stock; grading certificates or in
spection records; records of sales
of hides; or any other evidence
which may be considered rele
vant.
Officials emphasized that total
sales of meat are of slight value
as evidence of slaughter because
it is difficult to segregate meat
purchased for resale from meat
■ slaughtered by the applicant.
Likewise, plant capacity is little
significance as evidence, as very
few plants operate for an extend
ed period at capacity, officials
said.

Women Urged to
Consider WAAC
Proclaiming that Oregon has a
big job to do if it is to recruit
its share of the 90,000 additional
women needed for the WAAC,
■Colonel J. J. Fulmer, state re
cruiting chief, urged all eligible
women in this district to give im
mediate consideration to ¿he op
portunities for service offered by
the rapidly growing feminine ar
my.
.
Now that women soldiers have
actually proved their ability to
perform non-combat duties, ex
plains the colonel,, the demand for
their services has increased tre
mendously. WAACS are sow sta
tioned
at
army
installations
throughout the United States and
in England and Africa.
Those who are enlisting now
are being rewarded ijrith rapid ad
vancement for it is around them
that new units are being built
for active service following basic
training.
Women of Oregon who are in
terested in enlisting will find
most of their questions answered
in the new WAAC booklet, “73
Questions and Answers About the
WAAC.” This book is available
upon request at recruiting head

WATCH THOSE TIRES!
At the present, tires are by no means plentiful,
so check them frequently for imbedded objects
and breaks. Remember that the official inspec
