WASHINGTON. May 3. (P)
ate debenture amendment to the J
tariir uin.
- The action was regarded by Re
publican leaders as definitely elim
inating the debenture farm relief

measure,
. Should the senate, still Insist on
its amendment, Republican leaders
believe it will be eliminated in
further conferences between the

Fruitgrowers' League En

R-Hont I owu Retained
mkv.
The Fruitgrowers' league, at a j
mcethiK held In the Hotel Mcdford
last night, endorsed a tentative pear
markett expansion program for the
coming season, presented by the
Winter Pear committee, through
David II. Wood, chairman, and ex
tended a vote of confidence and
appreciation to the Winter Pear
committee for their efforts.
The 11130 program, as presented,
is as follows:
Continuance nf Detroit a a Hose
pear market, without guarantee of ,
Xew York prices, and on a larger J
scale than Ii-st year.
Opening of Hose pear markets
In two eastern cities to be selected,
along the same lines as in Detroit.
but with a guarantee of New York
prices.
Presentation of a radio program
iti Detroit, in connection with the
Rose campaign, to cost $2 275.
thereby attracting thousands of
housewives, where last year only
hundreds were attracted.
Newspaper advertising and deal
ers' service In Detroit, at an est!-1
mated cost of $7-5. making the i
total cost of the proposed Detroit
campaign $3000.
lOstablishment of two new mar
kets in two eastern cities at the
same costs a Detroit, totals $!000.
It Is estimated that expenses and
Incidentals in the three markets
would bring the cost to between
$12,000 and $15,000.
Itetaln Ix'vy.
It was voted to retain the pres
ent levy of five cents per box for
I loses and one cent per box for
fall and winter varieties. The Hose
fund h, estimated at $12,000 and

total of JIH.uno. A balance from
last year of $(i.3oo in the Hose
fund and In the winter pear fun 1
of $1,500, making a grand total
of S-ti.400.
This amount would ennble the
conducting of the campaign and
market development work, with
some degree of financial security,
and aid In assimilating any price
reverses in the new markets, which
are held unlikely. '

Ask Voters' Approval.
In answer to a communication
from the county court asking for
ii stand on the selection of the

city planning commission. In ses

proved the slto in keeping with
the civic center project outlined
here n few weeks ago by Jacob
L. Crane, Chicago planning engi
neer, who spent a week In Med
ford outlining plans for u future
systematic, development of Mcd
ford. A state law makes It necessary
for city planning commissions tj
take a definite stand on proposed
sites for public buildings und It
was In accordance with law that
the commission . was approached
by the county court.
The letter addressed to the
court. In full, follows:
"To the County Court
of Jackson County, Oregon.
"Medford, Oregon,

"The receipt of your communi

"In order that you may fully
understand our present- position
and views, It Is essential that ref
erence he made to the origin and
development of the commission.
"The City of Medford, an origi

became more and more In confu

who were working and Htudylntf
the city's affalrB that Medford
was facing some exceedingly dif

and adhered to. It wan thin Idea
that brought about the creation
of the City Planning commlslon.
"Tho commission him studied
the many problems of city de

Much was accomplished but It was
realized by all the members that
It was essential that the commis

of an expert In order that all city
