Effective for the fiscal month of November, Idaho Power company's business will be conducted on a 40- hour, 5-day week basis, President C. J. Strike has announced in Boise. General business will be handled on a 5-day schedule, Monday through Friday, he said, although local offices will remain open Sat­urdays for sales, collections and emergency calls.“We are complying with the let­ter and the spirit of the wage and hour law,” Mr. Strike said. “The law provides a 42-hour week effec­tive this year, with a further re­duction to 40 hours next year. To avoid upsetting our schedules at a later time, we are instituting the 40-hour week throughout the com­pany before it becomes mandatory. Our services must be maintained every hour of the day and night for the convenience of customers, and our new working schedules have necessitated careful planning."Bernard Frost, Nyssa, local man­ager of the company, said that of­fice hours will conform, as in the past, to local practice among busi­ness houses of each town. Employ­ees' hours will be staggered in such a way that each office and depart­ment can best accommodate the public, he said.

considering the practicability of establishing a subsidiary somewhere in the Oregon-Washlngton area and using electric power instead of coal in manufacturing stainless steel An investigation is under way look­ing for deposits of raw material in that region.
