Cron, /etc/motd & cronlog (SV)

The message of the day ("/etc/motd") is printed in the cronlog file every
time an "su - user -c command" is executed by cron.  Does anyone know how
to supress the "printing" of /etc/motd when using the "-" option to su?
It would make the cronlog smaller and more easily read.  We use Uniplus+
System V.
