Consideration of an amendment to the Sunday closing ordinance providing for Sunday tire service and of one forbid ding the sale of oil and gasoline on Sunday is scheduled for the Tuesday ses- sion of the city commission.
 Strong civic delegations for and against Sunday tire service will appear before the commission, to back up Com missioner H. P. Burruss in his stand for open tire shops on Sunday or to support Commissioner Hornadys measure closing the filling stations Sunday
 Members of the Jefferson County Med ical society, who have adopted resolu- tions protesting against an ordinance which would prohibit Sunday wrecker service and the sale of oil and gas, will send a delegation to appear before the board.
 The situation has many interesting angles, with consumers anxious for ser vicS. and the majority of the tire men in favor of closing on Sunday so as to ob- tain day of rest for their employees.
 Consensus of opinion is that the law will be allowed to remain as it now stands, with no modification nor fur ther restriction planned

 Carriers

Birmingham jitneys are to be regu. slated by city ordinance which will re, quire them to carry liability insur- ance, passage of the law to come with. Tn 30 days. A majority of the mem bers of the city commission are re- ported as favoring adoption of such a measure.
 Establishment of the jitney's status as "a common carrier is expected in the contemplated ordinance, with certain re- strictions as to operations embodied For instance, it is said definite routes will be fixed for the jitneys, with a schedule of hours during which car must be in service to run on the iitney routes.
 Fred c. Moore, city attorney, is now studying jitney laws of other cities pre- liminary to drawing up an ordinance which will be passed by the city board. Consideration of the measure will prob ably be passed over until the meeting next Tuesday, to allow MT. Moore fur ther time to prepare an ordinance ade- quate in it's provisions
 Civic organizations have been unani- nous in indorsing 8 law which would regulate the jitneys and safeguard the public. It has been pointed out that per- sons injured by jitneys have absolutely no recourse at the present time Clas- sification of the jitney as common car rier is declared a needed step.
 Statistics quoted by member of the kiwanis club at the luncheon last Tues day give the total number of jitneys in the United States as less than 75o Bir- mingham has at least 200 of these. it is estimated.
 When the jitney ordinance comes up for discussion, which will almost certain ly not be the day after tomorrow, strong committees from various civic organiza- tions will be present. They will urge adoption of the measure by the comms- sion AS a protective sten

Dear Sir
Enclosed is check for statement rem
dered for The Register for my father,
Charles Landon, who l believe, is one
of the oldest readers of your paper.
My father was born February h.
1924, and will therefore be 9S years of
age next February. He remembers well
when Ephraim Markham was editor of
the Middlebury Free Press, which lat
er was bought by Justus Cobb, father
of your respected townsman, and in
cidentally very efficient bandmaster,
Joseph Cobb. who rechristened the pa
per the Middlebury Register.
Mr.. Cobb was proprietor of the pa
per for many years, and did much to-
ward placing it in the front rank of the
Press Of Vermont.
One word of commentator for the
official acts of your townsman, Judge
Albert w. Dickens, the right man in
the right place. He will never be for
gotten by the poor children from the
metropolis whom he was instrumental
in giving a much needed outing in the
green fields of Vermont.

Dairy and Poultry Products
While wholesale trade the past week
has been limited, jobbing demand was
very good. Large quantities OF butter
cheese aud eggs were moved in this
way, and there was a general tighten
ing of values. Poultry alone continues
unsettled under liberal supplies. But
ter made gains of about Zee, cheese re-
covered from it's unsettled position
without showing price advances, eggs
held steadily to firm showing some
slight advances, and poultry shows fur
ther weakness,
Supplies of fancy butter were light
and in good demand. The recent hot
spell caused some deterioration in quail
ity, fancy butter becoming scarcer and
medium and undergrades more plenti-
full. The preliminary report of cold stor-
age holdings by the Bureau of Markets
and Crop Estimates showing a short
age of about twenty-five million
pounds compared with last year, was
another bullish factor Top grades
were well cleaned up, and at the close
of the week were selling at an advance
of about Zee, fancy northern at 4345c,
and western at 43c. Stocks of medium
and undergrades found a less ready
demand at 35-40c
The New York cheese boards con-
tinue firm without any material ad-
vances, but the Wisconsin markets
were much tirmer showing substantial
advances on nearly all styles. This
caused a hrmer tone without price
changes at the Boston wholesale mar
ket Twins were firm at 20Rc-2l zee,
Daisies at 20-2lc, Young Americas at
2l-22c, and Square Prints at 23-24C
Wholesale demand for eggs could not
be called active, but there was steady
demand in a small way that kept the
receipts moving in fairly satisfactory
way. Supplies Of nearby hennerys
have been a little too heavy and there
was some tendency to shade prices, but
as yet this has resulted in no lower
prices. Depending on quality, this
class of goods sold at 60-65c Western
hennery brought up to 5Sc, and extras
sold around 4jc, with a few choice lots
reported as high as 4Sc Extra firsts
found a quick demand at 3S-4lc, and
tirsts moved quite readily at $3.50.
Undergrades sold at 25-32c
Poultry market while still easy and
unsettled has shown signs of improve
ment Fowls reported fairly steady
and selling from $3.50 depending on
size and quality Supply of chickens
still liberal and selling around Doc
Reports from country points indicate a
falling off of receipts of chickens. Live
poultry market continues irregular
