The order, issued June 20, 1955 by Regional Forester Olsen, will become effective July 1. It states, the following acts are prohibited upon National Forest land of Region 4, United States Forest Service, beginning on the 1st day of July, until further notice: The throwing or placing of a burning' cigarette, cigar, match, pipe heel, firecracker, or any igin any place nited substance where it may start a fire; and the discharging of any kind of fireworks on any portion of a National Forest closed by order of the Regional forester to the discharging of fireworks. Forest visitors are urged to exercise extreme caution in the use of fire over the long Fourth of July weekend. Be sure your fire is out before leaving it and never throw away a lighted cigarette.

The 757,000 consumers of Utah are just as vitally interested in the price of milk for there is no substitute particularly in a childs diet. For the past eight weeks (during the first "milk pricing truce requested by Governor Lee) a committee appointed by the Utah Legislative Council has been studying milk costs and prices. On June 17 the Milk Study Committee presented its conclusions to the council. One of the major conclusions was that the sale of a quart milk in paper cartons for less than should be prohibited. Safeway cannot, in good conscience, allow this conclusion to go unchallenged. 20-cen- FIRST ASSESSORS REPORT.

As Safeway testified before the committee, you pay cash for milk at Safeway and carry it home yourself credit of accounts and expensive the save cost you home-deliverie- s. Safeway believes you are entitled to get this saving you earn it. That's why, Safeway presented all its cost figures to show the committee that Safeway could sell 3.8 butterfat milk for less than the going price and would be able to sell it h for still less in the future . . . and can sell a milk (one that just meets state butterfat content requirements) for an even lower price. to Utah's Milk Study Committee not-so-ric- Despite these facts, the Milk Study Committee has, in effect, attempted to force a "price fixing agreement among milk bottlers and retailers. One council member stated the committee was "just more or less pegging the price of milk out of stores at 20 cents. Such a pegged or fixed price if continued would prevent Safeway and ether efficient organizations from passing their savings on to you. what if tho price you may ask of milk is "fixed " a penny or so too high ? But pointed out to the Milk Study Committee if the price of milk you buy in stores is fixed it will cost the just one cent per quart too high of almost Utah almost half a $450,000 people year a million dollars. As Safeway also AND WHAT CHEAPLY - IF MILK IS SOLD TOO BELOW, COST? This, too, can cost Utahns money. For this reason, it is Safewas policy never to use milk as a loss leader. Safeway will meet its competisell and never will tors prices, but has never milk below cost to attract customers. to make money Safeway sells milk as a business on it. As proof, Safeway presented its profit figures to the Milk Study Committee. In 1954 Lucerne Milk Company of Utah, selling to Safeway, made a net profit of on its investment while Safeway, $137,326 26.11 its customers, made a gross profit of $124,223. selling to (For the first 20 weeks in 1955 Lucerne made a profit of $52,575.08, and Safeway continued to make its normal profit in milk.) AND SAFEWAY BELIEVES THAT TO INSURE A GOOD, STEADY SUPPLY OF MILK, DAIRY FARMERS MUST HAVE FAIR PRICES AND THOSE FAIR PRICES MUST BE CONSTANT. That's why, it is Safeway's policy (a policy Safeway has never violated) to pay top market prices for milk plus a bonus for quality. Safeway believes that this is in the public interest because when the price farmers get for milk is protected, bottlers and retailers cannot pass the costs of competitive pricing back to the farmer. Safeway presented witnesses to the Milk Study from experCommittee witnesses who testified ience that where the price paid farmers for milk is protected, price wars do not occur. However the Milk Study Committee made no recommendation to protect the price dairy farmers get for milk. FOR SALE for automatic balers; six-roo- LAWN MOWERS SHARPENED E. A.
