Anniversary Founding Safeway
Stores, Inc, To Be Observed
Coast to Coast,

Twenty years ago this week in
American Falls, Idaho, a young
man spent the last of his savings
to start a grocery store.
All this week, in approximately
5000 stores from coast to coast,
the event will be celebrated with
a great anniversary program. The
young man who walked down the
streets of American Falls that
August day in 1915 is M. B. Skaggs,
now chairman OF the board of one
OF the worlds largest food re-
failing organizations, and tn e
store he founded is No. l OF
Safeway Stores, Inc.
Local Safeway employees have
been busy for the past several
days with preparations for the
big anniversary event, which is
planned to be one of the mer-
chandising headlights of the year.
The dates set aside are August
18th to 21st.
American history is filled with
stories OF men with courage and
ambition who overcame hardsh!ps
and handicaps in order to achieve
an ideal, but it is doubtful II
recent years will produce a finer
example than the life of M. B
Skaggs: As a homesteader in the
Minidoka. Idaho, project, he was
SO poor that he had to build his
own tables. chairs and beds by
hand for his little family. It was
from this early economic exper-
fence that he first envisioned a
grocery store which would brinu
quality foods to the consumer al
the lowest possible cost.
The original store was estab-
!ished with that idea in mind
Its success was followed by The
opening of another store, and still
another. Today, Safeway Stores

i. Aids
Gold Mininq
First Evidence in Montana Loar
To Humuhries Gold Corp. at
Virginia Citv.

The first concrete evidence that
federal money may figure in a
mining revival in the state is re-
ported by the HUMPHREYS Gold
corporation of Denver, which is
assembling machinery to re-wash
the gravels of the famous Alder
gulch, near Virginia City, says the
Helena Western Progressive of
Aug. 2. This operation is financed
by a federal Reconstruction FL
nance loan.
The equipment consists of Link
Belt washers which are fed by
drag-line shovels. The gravel is
washed, quite as is gravel pre-
pared for highway construction,
in a revolving screen or trommel.
The fines" including the gold
and sand, pass through the mesh
of the screen and onto rifles
where the gold is trapped while
the lighter materials are WASHED
away.
This is the third time Alder
gulch will have been washed. Dis
covered in 1868, the year after
the first discovery at Bannack. it
made Virginia City one of the
greatest boom camps of the west
with a population of 10000 people
within 10 months. In three years,
$30,OOO.0 900 was taken from the
stream by hand methods.
Alder creek was the longest
and most productive creek ever
discovered in Montana: 20 miles
of stream bed, comprising about
1000 claims, were worked and
yielded a nrofit at a time when
wages we're from $40 to $14 a
day.
After the old-timers came ma
chine methods, which again wash
ed the gravels but left behind
much Of the gold. Testing by
Humphries Gold is said to have
shown average values of from
IS to so cents per yard still re-
mains in the oravels. With mod
ern equipment such as is now be-
ing assembled, it is possible to
wash out this gold at a cost of
from 10 to IS cents per yard,
leaving a wide margin Of profit.

REFUSAL TO
PAY PROCESSING A

governments giving it's permits
sion to the taxpayer to bring suit
for the recovery of processing
taxes paid. The mills. not know
ing what would be the fate of
this clause, the only logical pro-
cedure was to bring suit against
the collector of internal revenue
before the passage of this act, i'll
order to preserve their rights.
LAS far as we ourselves are
concerned, we do not want this
money to be refunded and would
be more than pleased to see the
entire matter dropned, provided
we could be definitely assured
that we would not be sued by
those who have purchased our
flour during the past two years.
However. if we are to be de-
luged with suits in the event of
a supreme court declaration Of
unconstitutionality of this act,
without some recovery from the
government, the loss of these
suits would bankrupt any milling
company, so we want to have
something to pay with.
For your further information,
practically all of the larger COM
panies in the United States have
brought suits similar to ours,
we being one of the last to take
any action. This being the case,
1t would seem to us it would be
impossible for a wheat grower TO
sell wheat that would not be
ground or milled by a company
which had not instigated action
against the government. The
same is true in regard to buyers
of flour. The mills which have
not brought action could not
nossibly begin to take care of the
flour requirements of the country.
please let US state again that
we are not opposed to the Agri-
cultural Adjustment Act, and the
fact that various milling COM
panies have brought suit for re-
straining orders and for the re-
covery of processing taxes will
have no bearing whatsoever on
the decision to be rendered by the
supreme court. If the law is re-
clared unconstitutional, and
whether or not the department of
agriculture sees fit to continue
the taxing of wheat processing,
you may feel very much assured
that all suits will be Immediately
dropped and everybody in the
milling business will be very
happy.
"You may also be sure of this,
that should this act be declared
unconstitutional, it will be il
legal and impossible for the de-
partment of agriculture to con-
tinue to assess the processing tax
and to make wheat allotment
payments. Further, there will be
no refunds asked from the re-
cipients of these allotment pay
ments. We also believe that, in
view of the fact that the gov
eminent has collected altogether
from various professors around
900 million dollars and to make
refunds to the professors would
be very burdensome. either con-
gress or the courts in some man.
ner will certainly see to it that
it is not refunded.
I'VE hope we have answered
your questions fully and that the
situation from our standpoint Is
clear. If there is any further
information which we can pass
on to you. please let us hear
from you at once.
