ubout the general law enforcement
for which he declared in his in
uugurul address.
The purpose of the chief execu

tightening up the federal organi
zations and the reorganization of
the federal Judicial .system.
.Mr. Hoover is undertaking to
in tl... 1'nitcfl St :l t e
and In doing so he expects the
support of the press and every
good citizen of the country.
Tito president Is moving with
caution In the difficult task of
picking those who are to compose
his law enforcement commission
and the best information uvuilublc
Is that ho has not yet definitely
decided on a slnglo memher.
Scores of names have been pre
sented for his consideration, but
many of those already have been
eliminated for one reason or an- :
other and ho "now is described as
literally scouring the country In
the; etfurt to una suituu.c men
who will bo willing to undertake
su gigantic a task.

President Hoover has not yet
announced precisely w:iat enforce
ment activities now carried for
ward by the treasury will be trans
ferred to the Justice department,
nor Is it cleur whether be holds
such transfer win be made without
un act of congress.
Mrs. .Mabel Walker AVillebrandl

transfer Is made the scope of her

Clins. V. Eakin, .president niul general niiinnger of the
Union Air liines, who own und operate West Co.-ist Air Trans
port planes, with daily f Ii - t li-rli pitsseiiiier service from
Iio.s Aii).'eles, via San Franeiseo, I'tirlland and Taeoina to
Seattle, in writing to the airport publicity committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, says: .
Portland, Ore., Feb. ,' I'M'.I.
We have Iranferred our operation from Med lord
to Montague on account of the field conditions in
your city,
The present, field in Mrdfiird is iideiiiale for a .
. . small plane, but for a large transport 'plum; it is dan
gerous to the lives of the passegeKs und to the ship
' itself ' ,
' Jt seem td ine that Medford, being a "key city"
in Oregon on both the until aiitl transport air lines,
it should be possible in some, way to have a field in
Medford or vicinity where it will be possible to set
down and take off without endangering the lives of
passengers, pilots or the condition of the ship itself.
The city of Mcdford, for both tho mail and trans
port service, would be, under proper conditions, a
clearing house for the entire territory n far iim I h as
li'oseburg and as fur south as Kureltit and also over
into Klamath Falls., I think the government has
recognized this fact when it established a large radio
station there, also betieon lights, etc.. and I believe
that it will only be a short time before the city of
Medford will Wikc up and install a ciass f'A" air
port. I.'ntil that time, 1 am sorry to say. it will be im
possible for Us lo take our chances on endangering
. the lives of our passengers m- wrecking our planes
by tryinsf to irivc service in and out of Medford.
