After all, health is the most important lliinu' in life. It is
not oiily tile most important tiling today to Mr. Kay and his

w
K hope every eitizen interested in Med ford's witter prob-
printed today in another column, as the official report of the
ciiy water commission. .
We all know Mr. (laddis, the chairman of the commission,
as we do his associate members, A. li. Kill, Ole Arnspifeer and
Dr. F. J. Thayer. They nre all men of chiiracter, capability nud
inh'Ki'iiy.
In this stateincnt the official xilicy of the coinuiission is
clearly stated and, more important, the facts which justify this
policy are printed in every detail.
This stateincnt, in our opinion, l;riii!s the entire matter lo
a definite aiitl clear-cut showdown. If these facts are not cor-
reel, then now is the time for those opposed to the commission's
water policy to publicly slate wherein they are incorrect.
If these facts AUK correct,
who oppose the commission's policy to explain upon what basis
they oppose il.
No progress toward a proper

commission, it seems to us, has done this. Now let those on the
other side follow their example.

particularly regarding the appeal
of -state law traffic violations
