Df. Piatt. W. Covington of the
Rockefeller Foundation was In Med
ford yesterday to present the advan
tages that Jackson county would have
-In being one of. the five counties In
Oregon wherein demonstrations are
- to be made to show the value of a full
time county 4 physician, two public
health- nurses, and a clerical labora
tory assistant. It Is to prevent suck
ness and decrease the death rate.
:8uch'a program would cost $10,

the State Board or Health would con
tribute the sum of $5,580, leaving $4,
420 to be paid by the county. The
present expense of the county nurse,
mounting to $2,500 may be applied
on the $4,420, so that It will only
require an additional appropriation
of $1,920 to get the $10,000 health
program In Jackson county.
' Dr. Covington presented briefly the
advantages of the full time health of

MUTINY PASSED,
FOREIGNERS SAFE
PEKING, June 24. (By Associated
Press.) The crest of the mutiny which
has drenched Klangsl province with
blood, apparently Is oast. Reports
from the best available sources place
the death- toll at more than 4000 and
indicate the destruction or severe dam
age of four cities, but do not Indicate
that any foreigners have been molest
ed. However, no word has been received
from 600 Chinese Christian converts
reported imprisoned in the compounds
of Catholic Lazarlst mission at Taiho,
since they were besieged there Thurs
day by mutineers, except their original
appeal for aid. As a result anxiety
which has been felt for several days
reached a higher pitch this morning.
ahlo Is 20 miles south oi Kian Fu In
Kiangsl province.
Latest reports are that foreigners,
except doctors attending wounded have
left Nanchang.
South of Nanchang, communications
virtually are at a standstill. However,
it is established that the greater por
tions of Kian Fu, Taiho, Wanan and
Lung Chuan have been destroyed. In
these cities many have been slain, the
greater portion of the known dead hav

FEAR MORE MINE TROUBLE
(Continued from Page One)
Associated Press) A state military
investigation of the Lester mine mas
sacre, which took between 25 and 40
lives, was begun today by a board
headed by Major General Milton
Foreman of the state militia, acting
under orders from Governor Len
Small, Issued when the chief execu
tive became aroused over failure of
Iocp! officials to take any steps
against the miners who captured and
killed the majority of strike breakers
working in the strip mine.
General Foreman and his commit
tee arrived at 6 o'clock this morning
and were met by Colonel Samuel
Hunter of the adjutant general's of
fice, who was hero during the mas
sacre. His orders to retun to Spring
field today were cancelled and he
Immediately became a guide for tho
military board. Oencra! Foreman
and the hourd proceeded Urn medi
ately to Marion, the county seat,
where conferences with stato'a attor
ney V. . la. Duty and sheriff Molvln
Thaxton were planned.
A tour of tho area of the fight Was
miule and It was expected that nu
merous supposed witnesses of the dis
orders would be called before the
board.
. . Investigate Officials.
General Foreman had been In
structed particularly to learn why the
state's attorney had not taken steps
toward convening a special grand
jury, why the coroner's Inquest had
not been held and why these officials
repeatedly refused to 1 authorize
Colonel Hunter to call for troops,
even after an Indignation meeting of
miners was held the day before tho
fight started and even after the
miners had marched on the mine. He
also had been Instructed, It was
understood to learn why sheriff
Thaxton had Ignored Colonel Hun
ters request that some special prep
arations for an emergency be made.
Failure of local officials to send
out enough deputies the night the
fighting began and during tho fol
lowing day, when almost unheard of
deeds of cruelty and brutality were
committed, also was a point to bo in
vestigated. Another matter to be looked Into
was why numerous requests from tho
governor for Information after the
trouble started were Ignored by
county officials, and why, when he
was receiving scores of telegrams
from privato citizens telling of tho
outrages, ho was continually inform
ed by the authorities that the situ
ation "was well In hand," and that
tho troops wero not needed.
Comment on tho streets expressed
resentment over sending of the mili
tary board, although officials said
they would gladly co-operato with It.
Colonel Hunter, who tho governor
said might havo been Influenced
wrongly by local officials becauso ho
Is a native of Marlon, said that he
was certain tho board would not aim
uny Investigation at him.
"I did my duty and even exceeded
it nt times.' ho said. "I havo given
almost continuous reports to my su
periors at Springfield. 1 havo ro
peatedly stated that tho local offic
ials were lax In their preparations
for tho trouble expected and In the
Investigations of it. I am glad the
governor bus taken this step, for It
will bear out my own official re
ports." Sheriff Thaxton and Mr. Duty both
promised co-operation.
roHM-tjr Ijoks High.
Tho situation in the county was
short time last night when caretakers
made considerably more tense for a
guarding the mines during the strike
through agreement between owners
and unions, quit work under threats
from groups of miners. Shortly
afterwards Hugh Willis. district
board member of tho union, and
other officials persuaded them to re
turn after union mine guards had
been stationed to protect them. Had
the men remained away, millions of
dollars worth of mines would have
been ruined through flooding within
a few days. Theso caretakers are not
mine union men.
Search for bodies continued today
at some points In the county, altho
the searching parties were few.
Twenty-two bodies had been recover
ed and many more were expected.
Concerning the proporty loss, no
definite estimate could be made, but
It probably ran close to $100,000.
Two freight cars of food, supplies
were taken. The mine could be ope
rated again but no one could say
what It would cost to put It In shnpe,
