I ' . ) An overhauling of nuricuhural freight rates, revision of farm taxes, fcuvern ment encouracment' to cooperative farm organizations, and proper utili zation of the public domain for agri cultural purposes were the outstand ing recommendations made today by Secretary Jardine of the Agriculture department in his annual report. The secretary said jhut while there has been a' general improvement dur ing the past year, farm conditions are not yet satisfactory overhauling of all freight rates, he proposed that revisioii should take into account the market value of farm products as re flected over a reasonable period of years, and "likewise tho .influence of freight rates on the economic devel opment of different regions and of the country as a whole."

"Farm taxes," the report said, "are chiefly general property taxes levied by the states and the local units on the basis of capital value, and they bear little or no direct relation to current farm earnings." "One of the most Important factors which contribute to the excessive tax ation of agriculture is the tendency of many states to improve the public schools und public roads largely at the expense of the local districts." Natural development of cooperative organizations as a specific need in ag riculture, , the report asserted, .makes it seem ' obvious that government supervision and control are not desirable.- KxeesHive regulation,, it is said, will smother the movement.

"The Scarlet West," the First National picture now on view at the Kfalto theater, where it will be shown tonight for the last times, unfolds a story of romance and. adventure such as the screen hat seldom seen, i Two thousand red men and as many American soldiers are the actors in this mammoth production, supporting a cast of rare excellence. "Tho Scarlet West" is notable for many reasons. Threading' the action of the story of a tender romance of ah unique nature; there are weird sun dances by hundreds of Indians; there are a number of breath laking fights between the Indians and ihe soldiers; there are scenic .-mot: of rare beauty and majesty.

W A S II 1 X 1 1 TO X, Dec. 7. ( A .P.) The need for some form of govern- 1 ment aid to secure the continuance and development of an American mer chant marine is urged upon congress today by the shipping board. "Government aid alone, either through preferential tariff duties, preferential tonnage dues, or subsi dies, more or less direct, can becure tho operation and continucrd exist ence of American merchant ships un der private owtiership," said the board in its annual' ,report. "If the law which already provides for one form of government aid is not to be util ized, then a substitute should be pro vided; but whatever form of aid is given. It should not be to special ser vices, but should be general in its pro visions so that any American ship ping firm will be willing to undertake I the building' ami opt ration of Ameri can ships will be entitled to the same and and the same opportunities to se jcuie that aid that any other concern may have. -Freight ships are hte era ft. that rmrtieularly need assist -; unco. "I 'ro vision should be made for a permanent merchant fleet, to bo built in American yards nnd maintained and operated by American labor, the purpose which congress had in mind and which it supposed it hail accom plished when it enacted the law of li)20." The problem is a fundamental one. tho report emphasized, as "failure to progress means retreat and practical withdrawal of our flag from the seas as soon as existing vessels are worn out or have become so out of date as to be excessively expensive for op-oration." fill-Is Tour With Japs, PH I LA DELPHI A - Two Philadel phia girls are, touring Japnn with a team of Japanese college baseball players.

In 1922, when people of Medford felt a desire for nn institution of this kind, the Community Hospital was established and the patronage during-the past three rears has more than fulfilled all expectations. The Community Hospital has not been, and is-not intended to lie made a General Hospital! It is a hospi tal of private rooms only, and does not accept any cases of contagious diseases, venereal cases, insane or mental eases, .or cases of addiction to liquor or di ngs. Ade quate facilities in an institution of this nature arc needed in every community the size of Medford. In the three years during which the Community Hospital has been open to the public, it has won an enviable place in this community, because of its high standard of scwice with consistently , reasonable -charges.
