The government will establish a 24-hour complete upper air weather bureau service on the airport. The government will install a two and a half million candle power beacon light opposite the airport and maintain it without cost to the city. The government's expense of construction and equipment of these projects will be over $100,000 and they will employ three crews , of men at each station. Read What Government Officials Say the Airport Means to Medford Wm. P. MacCracken, Jr. Assistant Secretary of the Department of Commerce for Aeronautics. "Washington, D. C. March 12, 1929. "Am jrlad Medford is preparing to vote on a bond issue to establish a modern air port v "Every city should possess one or more public airports. In this way only can the permanence of these developments be defi nitely assured. Progressive cities through out the United States are realizing the im portance of this matter and are providing themselves with suitable airports in order that they may have a place in the far-flung transportation system that is rapidly spreading over the country. "Win. P. MacCRACKEX, JR." George W. Barr of the Pacific Coast Airways, of Department of Commerce Mr. 13a it addressed the Kiwanis club in Medford Monday, March 23, on airports in the west. He told of the success of the ports at Los Angeles, Oakland and other cities and predicted Medford will become a key city on the airways of the coast, if it establishes the proposed airport. He said, he thoroughly investigated con ditions here and the proposed location for the airport before he recommended Med ford for a super-radio station. C. F. Marvin Chief of Weather Bureau . "Washington, D. C, March 13, 1929. "It is noted with much satisfaction that plans are under way for developing a satis factory airport in Medford and that these ilans include the furnishing of quarters for Weather 'Bureau service. In this connec tion I may say that the need for 24-hour service at Medford, since flying is to be done regularly, both day and night, is rec ognized. , C. F. MARVIN. W. 0. Willoughby Assistant Superintendent in Charge of Air Mail on the Pacific Coast In an address before a Chamber of Com merce meeting in M e d f o r d March 20th Mr. Willoughby said: "With the steady growth of civic aero nautics and the establishment of important, airways across the United States, the nec essity for suitable municipal airpoi'ts be comes apparent. As air traffic increases the city without an airport will be in the same situation as a town without a rail road. - "You are at the junction of the roads. At the election, April 2, you will decide whether or not you intend to take your place among the cities that have the fore sight to prepare for the future or give up to your neighbors the thing you have al ready in your possession. Are you going to serve notice to the world that you are a back number that you have no faith in the future of aviation? That is what you will do if the bond issue for the airport fails of passage."

Curtis, superintendent and Jlr. Boggs of the airway extension department on the coast with headquarters at San Francisco and many other government officials all refer to Medford as a "key-city" and an airwav term inal, have endorsed the location and have helped make plans and estimates for the port. ; Whether Medford is to remain on -'the railroad of the future" transportation by air and occupy a place on the world's air map, it now has the opportunity to do, is up to the voters of Medford. .',.--.- . .
