The city budget for lttliU Is rcolvintj considerable attention from the city council and the ten tative estimate will so oil he ready for the consideration of the budget committee which is composed of Ashland business men. The amount of the 1928 budpet, . which amounted to $7o,So6.s- has been decreased in the tentative budget lor l'Jl'U by $11'. SO. making the amount for 1 9 "J d . as proposed by I the councilman, $76, 2113. There have been some savings Indicated in the new budget.

But the construct ion of this seaplane, designed to cross the Atlantic Ocean in twenty hours with a pay-load of sixty passengers and a cargo of mall and express, marks the entry of Amer ica Into the International race for air supremacy over the ocean. The project Is headed by a group of the leading aeronautical experts of the country, under the aegis of O'Con nor Transatlantic Airways, Inc.. of 132 Broadway. New York City. Briefly, this .new project contem plates regular transatlantic pas senger service, as well as the estab lishment of New York-lo-Berniuda-Hervtce and coastwise South Amer ican routes. Present plans call for construction work to begin imme diately, with tho probability that the first plane will be completed In about four months. With dally flights to Bermuda, carry In one hundred and twenty passtMifffcru, the trip wllj be cut down to seven hours, while the . 'antic flight Is estimated at twt 'ty hours. v. - Jo. n p, O'Connor, the Inventor and d igner of the plane, was born aiiL educated In Cork, Ireland. H bin h many years con were Rev. C. I.

Mr. Slack was scarcely Injured, receiving only a few scratches but Mr. Saunders was badly shaken. Mr. Slack re turned to Ashland with Mr. Saun ders and his father. Leveretto Davis paid a visit to his family early in the week. Mi. Davis has engineering interests in tho state of Washington. Dr. Lawson, of Lor Angeles, who was expected in Ashland at this time in the interest of the Los An geles people who are seeking . a sanitarium site in Lfthia Park,' is detained by the serious illness of his wife. Dr. Lawson is said to be the physician who would head the sanitarium. The telegram which was sent to the chamber of commerce reads aa follows "Wife's serious Illness prevents doctor leaving. .

Please advise fronk:y today. Chas. F. Peake." Juhn H. Fuller, former secretary of tho chamber of commerc, who recently returned from nn extend--! od trip into 'the east and south j gave a most interesting talk on 1 Friday at the Klwants club lunch- j eon. Mr, Fuller, who is regent of 1 the Southern Orpcon Mornml i school, made visits to several east- ! ern normal schools to compare fa- : cilities of the long established 1 eastern schools with our own instl- 1 tutlon. He observed- that the j growth of normal schools has been In direct proportion to tho growth i of dormitory facilities and urged the establishment of a fund to ' take care of dormitory needs In j the southern Oregon school. !

Sinca 1920, he has been conduct ing . experiments In a . private laboratory and open-air model tests In the hills and surrounding country of Westchester County. His proposed plane has been stud ied exhaustively by the bent known American aeronautical laboratories and successful tests of the model have been completed. In comparison with the planes that have successfully crossed the Atlantic, the structure of the O'Connor plune will be gigantic. This plane, with a wing spread of ltfo feet and a weight of 70.U00 Louise Drown Medford.( and Mrs. Mite of An unusually nttractivo nnd well planned Hallowe'en party was given by Mr. nnd Mrs. J. H.

Miss Flhol Jones, of Klamath Falls, is In Ashland for a visit with AN A paid mlvorlispinpnt published in county nnwspupers by the Unpnblienn Conlrnl Committee relative to prohibition expenditures by the district attorney said: ;' "Mr. Clianey paid jointly'to Paul nnd Louia Jennings the Hheriff 's deputies, $934.10 for performing speeinl prohibition 'work hnt year," meaning 1!)25. .';'' That statement is true, but may have created the impression thnt they received thnt sum of money while on salary in the sheriff's office. ', , . The money to which the committee refers wns'paid from Mflrch, 1023, to August 1, 1025, during nn interval when neither Paul or Louis Jennings were receiving money from the general funds of the county. This statement can be verified from the prohibition records of A. C. Walker, County Treasurer. The records also show that the first money expended by the Sheriff's office from the prohibition fund for any purpose what ever was on July 25, 1925, that sum being $20.51. The sheriffs office has expended money since then in tho enforcement of prohibi tion, but has no desire to saddle any of thoso expenditures upon the office of the dis trict attorney. All of . these expenditures arc a matter of record. Palfl Advertisement by Ralph 0. Jennlngi. ' pounds under full load and eight j atr-cooled rotary engines, seems destined to change the trend of air transportation. From the point of view of aero dynamics, entirely new principles of structural design are employed In this new seaplane. In flight, the .plane's center of gravity will re main constant because of the meth od of distribution of gasoline which, incidentally, is stored entirely away from the passengers' cabins. The engine thrust is in the line of the center of gravity of the plane a feature which designers of giant European aircraft have never suc ceeded in accomplishing. The ver tical plane, which contains the cen ters of buoyancy of the three hulls. includes the center of gravity of the machine; the side hulls can i relatives and friends.
