We know it is a hardship to wait for needed transportation; but we believe you will understand that we, and Chevrolet, are as eager to deliver cars as you are to obtain them. Unfortunately, production so far this year is far under expectations. Chevrolet Motor Division sums up the situation thus: WHITE "Even though our rate of production normally exceeds that of any other manufacturer, we have been able to build, up to July 1, only 12.4 per cent as many cars as we had built up to that date in 1941. Production is still far below normal, because of fre quent shortages of essential mate rials and parts. Strike after strike at the plants of our suppliers has seriously impeded our progress toward full production, and the cumulative effect severely hampers every manu facturing and assembly plant. In June we were able to build only 29.2 per cent as many cars as we produced in the same month in 1941.” PEPPERMINT Thursday—Friday—Saturday—Sunday Pints, Quarts, Gallons, 5-Gallon Tins Saturday Only The Pal Shop Vernonia, Oregon Phone 411 Take advantage of the train ing of a Marinello graduate by having your coiffeur ar ranged at the Riverview shoo.

Popular Thirty-two people lost their lives in traffic casualties during July in Oregon, it has been dis closed by Robert S. Farrell, Jr., secretary of state. While this year’s July toll has increased half again over last year’s the greatly swelled traffic volume will probably show driving to have been safer this year, mile for mile. The tsate’s July mileage figures are not yet avail able. Farrell predicted, however, that when mileage for July has been found, the death rate per mile traveled will show a marked decrease from recent levels. Safety authorities are watching a nation-wide dip in the death rate per miles traveled in hope that a long-time trend is being forged. The downward curve has been in progress for several months, but cautious safety men have hesitated to label it a real trend. More conclusive informa tion will be available by the end of the year. • Vernonia Oregon PHONE 342
