After three ami a half hours of . deliberation, members of the Hreat r Medford club decided at a lunch eon meeting today to trade their lot, located just back of the Cath olic academy, on Ivy street, for , the triangle near the high school on North Oakdale, North Ivy and West Third street, which is owned : by the city of Medford.

Instead of this, after much discussion of at least i half a dozen different houses in : town, the women came to a sud den decision that it would be bet I ter to build u new house. ! A proposed plan drawn up for ; the committee by Louis H. Hum j phreys was submitted for approval I of the women. It was not defi nitely decided, however, that this I plan will be used when they are ready to construct a new building, j Several generous donations by various women were offered in ! the event that the proposed club 'house becomes a reality. A drive ; for funds will also be under way ! in the near future, according to present plans.

UV) Livestock development of south western Idaho has bet u him.Vred because of lack of dependable mar kets, and the only hope is railroad construction that will provide bet ter outlet, John Smeed of Caldwell declared at an interstate conimerc: commission bearing hen' today on a proposed cross-state, railroad in Oregon. The Oregon public service com mission lias petitioned for con struction of such a railroad to open up undeveloped regions of central O regon. Producers cannot afford to ship cattle to San Francisco over the present rail route. Mr. Smeed said. In shipments of ir.im to 2unu miles, shrinkage in weight and quality destroys a great deal of the value of the stock. Feed bills mount high. At present, Portland and Seattle are the only markets within rea sonable distance, lie continued. They can consume unly ,u or Co carloads a day. Mr. Smeed gave statistics to sup port his arguments. The proposed cross-state cutoff, he said, would shorten the haul to San Francisco gy about 30o miles. New irrigation development In southwestern Idaho means till greater production of beef. Mr. Smeed said. That Increase w ill do the producers no good unless they can get it to market.

Local Leionnaires have been busy today acknowledging the many compliments paid them f wi the efficient manner in which they put over the recent Ameri can l,egiun convention. Although i tins was by far the. largest con : veution ever staged In sou t hern ' Oregon. e cry detail was taken care of, thanks to the untirinj; ; efforts of the local Legion mem -hers, who sacrificed their own : personal pleasure to put over the ; big three-day celebration. Splendid co-operution was also rendered by many of the citizens of .Medford, who helped out, not : only in providing curs, but in many other ways. To these citi '' ens and all those why helped I make the convention a success, the officers of Medford post ex press their sincere appreciation.
