DELIVERY SERVICE
ISSUE UNSETTLED;
UP AGAIN FRIDAY
Further Conference Neces-
sary Before Deciding to
Abolish Present Method
of Handling Trade.

Tuesday nights meeting of the gro
GERS did not result in any affirmative
action concerning no delivery service
except that paid for, as recommended
by r. F. Bicknell. food administrator
for Idaho. The matter will be further
discussed at a meeting to be held in
the rooms of the Boise Commercial
club Friday night at s o'clock.
When the meeting adjourned Tues
day night, Thursday evening was the
time named for the next session. Adj
ministrator Bicknell has since learned
that another meeting would precilje
his attendance then, so this morning he
authorized the call of the meeting for
Friday.
1t developed at Tuesdays meeting
that while a majority of the grocers in
attendance were willing to line up be-
hind no delivery service except when
paid for, a rather general opinion was
expressed that if the other stores of
the city would operate in the move
ment, the more complete success of it
would be assured. At the Friday
meeting Mr.. Bicknell asks all retail
merchants of the city that make de-
liVcries at present no matter what
their business, attend for discussion
and action.

nell, food administrator for Idaho, at

extra charge over the quoted price.
He also promised the meeting that

err wholesalers and iobbers in the state

ing and in addition would communi-

tors OF neighborng states with the
view Of getting their cooperation to
the end that their wholesaler and job
bing trade serving some of the Idaho
points take similar action so as to
promote uniformity.
