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."
Other Government Officials Endorse Medford
Wm. Miller, airway extension superintendent, Mr. Chapman and Mrs. Gale of the radio
communieatiii department, all of Washington, 1). C; E. L. 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. .',.--.- . .
