The airport will benefit, no one line of business, no particu

pality. The financial burden, therefore, should be home, not
by any group, but hy the city as a whole a condition which

A rate hearing was held hero

In fact, when one carefully studies the local situation, re
garding aviation, it becomes perfectly plain that the only real
issue involved in the election of April 2nd is this:
Shall Mediord remain on the air map of the United States
or get off? It would bo very nice if someone else would build
the airport for us, but no one else will, neither Uncle Sam nor
some benevolent airplane manufacturer.
It would also be very nice if Mcdford could retain Her place
in the air without a new airport. But Medford can't.

True, Bedford has the strategic position. But the history
of American transportation is full of places which had the
strategic position, and then fell off the transportation map into
oblivion, because they thought that was enough. Not so many
vcars ago Jacksonville had the strategic position and decided
we need to do nothing the railroad must come to us. iJut tne ,g ;
railroad never came. - l
' And the railroad of the future,' which is the railroad of the l
air, will never eninc to Medford unless the conditions which are j
demanded, and only a new airport, can supply, are provided. E
So we repeat, the big issue and tho only real one, is whether E-j
Medford wishes to remain on the national air map, and realize j
its present and future opportunities, or throw them into 'bejjSSj
ash heap and get off. ' !
MEDFORD has faced similar opportunities in the past, and !
