Show New Regulations Govern Merchandising The attention of the people of St. George and vicinity is called to the new regulations governing deliveries and charge accounts. These new directions have very limiting qualities and merchants must adhere to them or be liable to prosecution. According to Val McArthur, manager of Pickett Lumber Co., they will only be permitted to make one delivery a day to any person, except on special deliveries deliver-ies authorized by Section 501-32. Provided, however, that when one day's shipment or shipments to any one person exceeds the- capacity ca-pacity of a single vehicle, then and in that event, delivery of such shipment or shipments shall be considered as one delivery. Regarding consumer credit regulations, reg-ulations, Gordon Mathis of Mathis Market, and Harold Miles of the O. K. Market point out, that according ac-cording to government regulations, open charge accounts may not extend ex-tend beyond the 11th of the second sec-ond calendar month following the calendar month in which such articles were sold. When a charge account is in default, de-fault, the registrant shall not extend ex-tend credit to the obligee for a charge sale or instalment sale, until all that is deemed to be in fault shall be paid for in full. Although terms of credit generally gen-erally used by merchants in this city have been two weeks to 30 days, Mr. Mathis points out that it will not now be permissible for merchants to give extensions beyond the 60-day limit. |
