COUNTY OFFICES MUST
OBSERVE HOURS 9 TO 5
AS PRESCRIBED BY LAW

The law will not permit counties to
open and close their offices at hours
which will permit the county employees
to observe the new business hours
adopted by many business houses to
avoid the inconvenience Of the new
time change. Attorney General Roy
i. Black finds in an opinion issued at
the request OF Payette county offic-
ials The officials of that county had
planned to open their offices at and
close at 4, the same hours observed
by Payette business houses.
Attorney General Black quoted the
law on the question, which is as fol-
lows:
"Sheriffs. recorders, treasurers and
prosecuting attorneys must have their
offices at the county seat and keep
them open for the transaction of bus
mess from a. m. to o'clock p. m. ev-
cry day in the year excepting holidays.
The probate judge must have offices
ut the county seat and must establish
such rules and hours for official bust
ness as may be necessary for the dis
position thereof.

CAR EMBARGO NOT AS
DRASTIC As SEEMED
Order Affecting Southern Idaho
Interpreted by President Cal
win Of Union Pacific-Means
Adjustment.

The recent embargo order announced
py the oregon Short Line against use
OF empty box cars for other than wheat
and merchandise shipments in south
ern Idaho was not intended to be SO
drastic as 1t seemed when first an
nounced, President L. z. Calvin of the
Union Pacific system wired the pub
lie utilities commission today in re-
Spouse to protest entered by the
commission.
Your wire 3rd," wired President
Calvin, instructions have not been
issued to cut off entire supply Of
equipment to the mills on the oregon
Short Line, nor Is such action con-
templated. On the other hand, an
equitable distribution of available box
cars is to be made.
Have taken the matter up with the
Oregon Short Line officials TO cor
rect any Misunderstanding that may
exist"
The order as interpreted when first
announced would have been a serious
blow to the lumber industry in south
ern Idaho. since 1t would have cut off
shipment of lumber and building ma
terials.
1t was understood the empty cars In
southern Idaho would have been d.
yerted to the coast.
