WHERE MED FORD
TWENTY" years ago Msdford offr-red $1000 to any commun
ity of its size in the country which could equal its own
variety of natural resources within a 50-milo radius. This stunt
gave Jledfonl considerable valuable publicity, but the cha!
Ii;iijjTo as only cec'-pted by one town .'.which, wax situated in
Texas, ami that town failed to support its challenge by any
evidence.
With the' opening of the summer tourist season, it lias oc
curred to us that a similar chalK-nge uii'lit be made today,
with the radius extended to 80
resources" displaced by "natural
For a circle with nn 80-mile radius, drawn about Medford,
would, we believe, enclose the greatest tourist Paradise, not
only on the Pacific Coast but in the tutire country.- ;-
, 'v. . ; a).'-'' ' : ' -
IN this circle would be Crater Lake, on one side nrid the Pa
cific Coast on the other, with the best trout fishing streams
and lakes in the world scattered between. There would be the
Pacific Highway running throu-jh the Rogue and Umpqua val
leys; the Roosevelt and Redwood Highways, through the luxur
iant and incomparable mountains and redwoods; the lofty snow
capped peaks of Mt. Mclaughlin and .Mr. Shasta, the shady
glens of. the Siskiyotis and Cascades Willi practically the en
tire district, in the same condit'on as the early pioneer found it.
....,',. ' , . .
OKT.Y those who realize how rapidly civilization is driving
out the frontier on this coast cans fully appreciate what an
asset this situation creates and what'aii opportunity from the
tourist standpoint it presents. , ... ..
We have traveled 'pretty well over'this coast from Vancou
ver, li. ('., to the Mexic,-:ii line, alid weVknow no district which
in 'natural beauly can compare with itT The highway from
Santa Harbara to Sail Diego is practically a city avenue be
tween rows of modern Spanish villus-! It will not be long before
San Josn is a suburb of San Francisco, and Sacramento the
same. - - 1 1.-'. -';.,' " '.':"
' When vacations are considered the common cry throughout
California as well as in the East and. Middle West will be "Back
to Nature. Where can we pet it?"
The answer from Southern Oregon should be "IIKRK IT IS!"
OFTEN, we in Oregon look with envy upon the prosperous
and rapidly growing Culii'orriia, and wish we could do the
same, well, eventually we will. I5ut in the meantime, this ab
sence of sensational development has giyen Oregon, an advan
tage over California and other
of us seem to appreciate: ' "" '
That advantage lies in Oregon's natural beauties, its un
spoiled wilderness, its outdoor resources as noted above. Each
year more outsiders are discovering this. But why wait for
others to discover it, why not "tell the world!"'
Medford should be the center of the greatest summer tourist
travel on the Pacific Coast, and with proper publicity it will be.
CRIME AS A BUSINESS
SOME of the seriousness of the crime conditions in the large
cities of this country can be pnined from a perusal of the
Koney gang confession in today's press reports.
This gang adopted crime as a business and carried it on in a
very efficient fashion. Crime prospects were developed pre
cisely as business prospects are developed. Nothing was left
to chance. Every detail was tended to careJully.
Payroll methods of large corporations wero as carefully
studied as stock exchange reports. Murder wan not regarded
as a measure of last resort, but as a necessary element of suc
cessful administration
Killing first and rpbbing afterward was the accepted pro
cedure. When a member of the gang 14 knew too much," he was
filled with buckshot and buried in the rear of the headquarters,
with no more scruples than a business head would tell a sub
ordinate that he is no longer wantej.
Profits were enormous, and members of the gang periodi
cally enjoyed themselves in Broadway night clubs, and at least
one of them enjoyed a few months in Europe.
Most people who read this confession will, we believe, agreo!
with President Hoover that the greatest single menace eon
fronting this country is the appalling growth of organized law
lessness and crime.
At the present rate it will not be long 'before every citizen
will have to decide whether or not he wishes this country to
be n land of law and order or a land of lawlessness and crime.
Four days more and Jack 'ost will have to admit his
defeat in this section, or p've that hc-ean make a monkey out
of the weather bureau experts whenever ho wishes to.

A very characteristic picture of
life. One can Imagine that same

teacher who has nothing impor

The whole business of teaching
health, hygiene.- physiology, nanl

it, in our schools Is.u sorry fa&ccsl
It may be that someone with moreM
or less special training Is appoint-,,
ed to supervise or superintend this
department of popular education
in the whole school system, or.
even in the schools of a given
community, but nowhere, so far as
I have been able to learn, are,
properly trained .teachers em
ployed to give such instruction in
the grade schools or high schools!
Always It Is a subordinate subject,
and the school authorities. In their
htlHHful Ignorance of the subject,
assume that any teacher who has
any sparo time is tiunllfled to tench
this silly subject. Naturally this
attltudo of the schools toward the
subject of health Is reflected in
tho mindtt of pupils. Then, un
fortunately, there i tho shrewd
and aggressive activity of Innum
erable commercial interests: that
are every ready to exploit the ig
nnrnnee of teachers and pupils,
through the agency of placards,

freely furnished to teachers or pu

propagate certain Ideas.

is a disgrace to our boasted system
of popular education and I fear
the medical profession will never
break silence about It, the public
health authorities are too timid oF
the wrath ot politicians, and the
teachers themselves nro unlikely
to rebel. The only hope is that
parents may sicken of the farce
and demand that better use be

Solution
Why are the people willing to
buy them7" .
"Well, because the United
States government stands be
hind them; in other words, the
government is putting up se
curity for its own loans, and
the security which it puts up
is nothing more nor less than '
the energy of wealth In its
most productive form, its nat
ural resources.
"It is the best security in
the world, security that -survives
the; wrecks of banks and
treasuries., :., '
"So, then, if we start with a '.
security which is unquestioned
and which the people are will
ing to accept as collateral for
the bonds' issued, why should"
we go through the complicated
and unnecessary process of
paying 120 per cent interest (4
per cent for 30 years equals
120 per cent, out of our own
pocket to somebody else for
the privUeae of getting' $30,
0CO.0OO which, in reality, we
already own?
"Take a piece of paper and
a pencil and figure it our for
yourself. Suppose we borrow
$3C,000,OCO and pay 120 per
cent interest, we literally have .
to pay $56,000,000 for-the use
of $30,0X0,000.
"That is we pay $30,000,000 .
for public improvement and
$36,000,000 Tor the loan. And
it waft the government's own
n:oney to begin with! It seems
like a very childish and .un
businesslike method.
"Now here is a way I see
by which our government can
get great work accomplished
on a less complicated plan. It
is a sound way. but there is
one thing hard about it; it is
so simple ana easy that maybe
some people can't see it,
"Suppose, for example, we
desire to relieve unemployment
by carrying on some necessary
public Improvement, and to do
this the government needs $30,
0O0.0C0. That's a million and
and a hair 820 bills, or three
million $10 bills. - - '
"The government can issue
these against the value of the
thing in prospect and with
them pay every expense in con
nection with the work, then
put tr e plant in operation and
out of its earnings retire the
entire $30,000,000 worth of cur
rency which has been issued.
