Communications To tin editor: Friday's Ihsue of a Medford pa per carried u lengthy Indorse ment of Itaymond Cornwell. Dem ocratic nominee for County school superintendent, written and hlgned by himself, In which he says some very splendid thing about himself ami his ability. To the minds of those who know Ihy facts, however, one statement In this excellent .ulogy seems misleading to say the least. Does It seem iuile plausible. ' that, had Mr. Cornwell been quit" ! lis successful in Medford as he' liken to think, the rive men who: compete the Medford .School i Hoard would have com un eit in i relieving him of his duties as principal 01 me v nounnMn , llUt ,mly mV, d, sclo.id and b iiinn him down eas-j H)m.e ,ho ) ff,hI' ,lf individuals to ily by offering h oi u minor post-' mvn pi0pertv b.yond actual -r-llon In the city system, where he M,n, I.,.,.Mflm1.f 1m r,.(.nf-nl.iMl bv would have no a.tnilnM-atlve or thl.

Tengwald, for nuitiy years prominent In fraternM and military affairs of this city and euiinty, In a radio addrcks over KM HI) spoke in behalf nf Newton Chaney, Kepubli. vun candidate fur district nnnrnt-y for u. Heeond term, iih follows; It Is my purpose to speak (o ymi on behalf of Newton C. Chaiiey, the Kcpublira n nminee f i- district attorney of JackKoii county. I feel personally well mctllficd to speak for Mr. Chaney as it h:rs been Illy pleasure to be asHiwiiite I with him in the various activities of ex-service men in numerous civic enterprises and us a person Inter ested in the welfare of the Repub lican party, and 1 am proud io say that in the various activities men. Honed 1 have always found M i . Chaney to be a whole-hearted indi vidual whoso motives are alwn ys kindly nnd whose every act is dic tated by the highest of Ideals. Mr. Chaney is what may be termed an exceptionally human person with a well-developed sense of fair play. Newton C. Chaney was admitted to the bar June K 1 1 2, by Sixth Court of Civil Appeals of Texas. lie practiced law for three and one-half years In Hillsboro, Texas, with the usual grist of petty cihc, thrown in tho way of a stnitr!lnir young lawyer, and was then ap pointed county attorney of Mitchell county, Texas, serving almost one year. Thereafter he held a position In tho United Slates Depart men t of Agriculture, He resigned January 1K, 1I18, to enter the army service where he wan commissioned first lieutenant. Discharged November 30, Inly, at Kort Itliss. Texas, after the war, Mr. Chaney moved with his family to Seattle, then to southern Oregon. In May, liiLM, Mr. Chaney was nominated by the Itepublloin party of Jackson county for district attor ney and was elected for four-year term In the following November. After a remarkably sueeessfnl term us prosecutor of Jackson county, especially along the lines of effi cient, economical administration, he was renominated decisively in May of this year and Is now stand ing for re-eleetlon on his record as it faithful and skilled law enforce ment official. Mr. Chaney took tho oath of of fice as district attorney four years ago at a time when criminal law enforcement was at a low ebb In this country. I 'uder lovernor Pierce's appointee all effort seemed lo be concentrated on snooping about private residences and busi ness houses, hoping to locate a few bottles of home brew or moonshine. Tho agencies employed displayed no ability In intercepting heavy rum runners or in arresting; prosperous bootleggers and whisky distributors who were almost cpenly plying their trade. When a contraband Ihltior dealer happened to run afoul of thi law he at once hired an able lawyer, plead not guilty, fought the case In court before a Jury and almost invariably walked out free to re-engage In his Illegal traffic. Ami remember all this futile am) profitless play at law enforcement by helpless incompe tents was casting the tuxp'iyers large sums of money. When Chaney was Inducted Into office I he liquor crowd ran, Into hard sledding. New methods were adopted, org inixiition was perfected, co-operation was se Bootleg Marriages of Russia K1KV, ltussla (!')

I'.i't'A and I'J'JA, the three years prior to Chaney taking office, the taxpayer of Jackson county had to put up i r , 4 r, i . u T for prohibition law en forcement over and above what had been taken in from fines, etc. On the first day of January, liif., when the office was turned over to Mr. chancy there was a balance of In the hands of the district attorney from the prohibition fund. January, 1'Jl'S, three years later, the record show that through Mr. chaney's efficient administration of the pro hibition fund jaO-i-'.XO was re ceived from lines, sales of confis cated cars, etc., in O'JTi, lflUO and i2T. That the amount turned In tn state prohibition fund was ST, 711.72, and the amount turned in to the genera! fund of JaeU.soi; county was S 1 .10 5.

The tidal amount turned in to the state prohibition iiit.'i. iivneral fund of Jaik.-on county and balance on hand Janu-' ary 1. lH'JS. was $ll.i;i, a record which Mr. Chaney's friends believe has not been equalled by any dis trict attorney in the stale of Ore gon. During the grand jury investiga tion of Mr. Chaney. his indictment, trial and the bitter primary cam paign, and for sometime there after, official morals were at n low ebb ami active law enforcement was almost at a standstill. It is just now getting hack to somewhere near normal and the prohibit ion fund is being gradually built up to the point where it may again be used effectively, money on hand In that fund , as of October '1, l!US, being 7KI.h:I. Criminal law enforcement, ami more especially prohibition law en forcement, Is a difficult problem in any county. When the people have secured the services of a district attorney who iu a term of four years has been able to organ h'.e the forces at his command lu such a way as to enforce the prohibition law In the most effect I ve ina um-r il has ever been enforced lu this county, and at not one dollar of expense to the taxpayers, the pub lic should as ti puce matter of busi ness re-elect him for a second term. And I am sorry that lu Hie time allotted I have been unable to cover, more than some of the highlights of Mr. Chaney's personality and his administration, but trust that be fore this campaign Is over the vot ers will have a chano to become acquainttd with Mr. Chaney's per sonality and have full knowledge of his acts as the present incum bent of the office of district attor ney for Jackson county, and the friends of Mr. Chancy feet eonfideiit that with these motives brought to the attention of the voters of Jack sou county that the voters will without doubt return Mr. Chancy to ofliee at the election on November of a few copecks for documentary stumps, The uuestion of alimony be conie.s more burdensome, for it is ; decreed that If one of the divorced ! persons has employment and t to other has not the employed one Is responsible for the other's keep for a period of mIx months. The christening of children has gone to the discard as an Institu tion along with other religious i rites. A communist father dcslv jlng lo show his party loyalty ami to dedicate his of isprlng to the I communist cause will carry his tn jfunt to his office, shop or factory nnd there In the presence of his comrades declare his predilect Ion i in the matter of a name "Mai" or j "oktyabr," perhaps.

Whatever the name chosen, the Infant is declared to be an 'Okiy.i brenok." or infant communist.
