COMMITTEE GETS . js,
AdHLA.U, Oct. 17. Seven citizens,
good and true, will participate, with
members of tbe city council In framing
a municipal budget. Under the luw.
they must be freeholders. They may
possibly be permitted to possess a
little oil or mining stock on the side,
, but absolutely they shall not bo con
nected with any municipal corporation
according to the letter of the Btatute.
The committee named Includes F. D.
Wagner, J. A. McGce, C. C: Weisen-
- burger, 11. M, Shoiidy, W. M. Barber.
W. A. Patrick, nnd V. F Loomls. The
basis for approximating the size of the
budget for 1 1 2 2 must be graduated on
a plane not to exceed six per cent
higher than the total expense account
for the year preceding, the budget for
1921 having amounted to $52,887.26,
bond Interest requirements having
taken nearly one-half this amount.
However, the council has considerable
latitude insofar as Iovyi.ig specific
sums for meeting interest on Its obli
gations. In the meantime the commit
tee named will meet with the council
from time to time, a report to be forth
coming on the first of .November, tbe
date' for holding, the next aldermanic
session. On Nov. 2 local voters will
pass judgment, at a special" election,
on the interminable bond question.
This will be In regard to the Issuing of
$18,000 In municipal securities of the
"potential" classification as distin
guished from a lot of others which
Vhave already been marketed, the total
issue being $03,387 for paying current
indebtedness and refundiug other obli
gations which have matured. To sim
plify matters, only two polling places
will be established, the central one be
ing at city hull, a circumstance which
lessens both trouble and expense. Gen
erally these special elections are mere
ly perfunctory occasions anyway,
merely serving to observe the letter of
the law. .
Promptly at 9 o'clock thls'morning,
the Jackson County Teachers Institute
convened at the high school bujldlng,
the attendance being nominal. Supt.
Briscoe, of the local schools, welcomed

Miss'Muiiel McCorinick, heeiress to 'two rortunes, granadaughter of the
worlds riehest man, John D. Kock4 feller. Her life's ambition is fame in
the theatre. Whether It be opera cr "dramn, she does not know, but Miss
McCormick -hopes it is opera. She at ends the opera every night lu Its

she believes one's colors .should express one's personality. Miss MeCor
mick said she planned to make her debut last 'year in the Burgh Thoatre.
That Is. as famous in Vienna us the Comedie 1'Yancaise Is in Paris. "But
the newspapers published about two lines on my work and my study and
ulmost a whole iage on who my parents were and 'Who my grandfather
was. I was disgusted. I determined that 1 should never appear on the
stngo if I could only bo 'sent off by my family."
The civil suit of the McComber-,
Savldge Lumber company of San Fran
cisco against the Big Pines Lumber
company of this city for the collection
of $29,227.C0, alleged Xr have been' ad
vanced ou a contract for lumber, al
leged to havo beet, unfulfilled, was be
gun In the federal court this morning
before Judge C. K. Wolvertori.
The lawsuit, which promises to he
one of the hardest fought legal actions
in the history of southern Oregon is
represented on both shies by attorneys
of high 'fame in Paciflo Const states.
The defense is represented by Attor
ney George M. Roberts of this city.
and Attorney A. A. Hampson of Port
land. The plaintiff is represented by
W. L. Crittenden of San Francisco,
Joseph T. Webb of San Franoisco, and
A.. K Reames of this city. Webb is
rated as one of the best- pleaders in
the west. '
The action is the outgrowth of a
contract ulade June 9, 1920, when lum
ber was at tbe peak of war time prices,
according to the opening statement to
the jury for the defense by Attnney
Roberts, who asserted that Immediate
ly afterwards lumber began to drop,
and alleged that dilatory tactics were
adopted thereafter by the plaintiff
relative to orders for shipments of
lumber under the coutract. cut In this
county. Attorney Roberts said that
the evidence. would show that the Big
Pines Lumber company lived up to its
agreement and that by reason of the
falling through of the same, the local
concern had lost lu the neighborhood
of $38,000.
The plaintiff, through Attorney
Webb, contended that tbe Big Pines
QMipany had failed to fulfill their
