Vacation Plans Changed By
Extended Senate Session
Will Spend Two Weeks
in Rockies Late in August
Solely for Rest.
WASHINGTON, July 16. W
PreHldent Hoover wan said to
day at the White House to ex
pect to Bpend at leant two week
In the northern Rocky mountains
late in Augirnt or early in Sep
tember, "solely for purposes of
an outdoor holiday and rest."
The following statement was
made public:
"On May 9 press representatives
were told that the president hoped
to take o,. month's holiday In the
western national parks, beginning
August 1..
"At that time It was anticipated
that the work of congress would
he completed at much earlier duto
than has now eventuated.
"The president will require, some
time In. Washington to complete
Important matters after the ad
journment of the present session.
He expects, however, to be able
to spend at least two weeks in
the northern Itockles late In Au
gust or early September, solely
for purposes of an outdoor holi
day and rest.
."The president has received a
very great nupiber of cordial In
vitations to make public appear
ances and addresses In various
cities enroute. The curtailment
of the period when he may be
away from Washington nnd the
very nature of taking a holiday
and rest will preclude acceptance
of these Invitations and he be
lieves they will not be pressed."
The president, in his original an
nouncement, said he would make
Glacier national park near the Ca
nadian border the first stop on his
trip and spend at least one week

I)irrrciitiul Not.
In the mutter of commodity
rntDs, the (unci lines wore iiIbo
ordered to mulnttiln a' differential
above ship charges ranging from
3 to 16 cents per hundred poundB
nbovo the ship charges.
In connection with the findings,
the commission refused to ullow
shipments of lumber to southern
Callfornln from north coast points
to be miulo on rates less than those
applying to Intermediate points.
The lumber Interests' complaint on
this subject wus dismissed.
HAJ.BM, Oro., July lG.--P) Sub
stantial reductions In rales to In
termediate' points along the South
ern Pacific line In .Oregon will re
sult from the Interstate commoree
commission's order today allowing
Pacific coast rnllroads to meet
steambont competition in rate
charges. A. F. Harvoy, rato expert
for the public service commission,
said It might not he necessary for
the rnllroads to reduce their port
terminal rates to meet water com
petition, hut reduction would re
sult from that part of the order
requiring thut Intermediate ratos
be held to a maximum of not more
than 100 per cent above port to
port rates. If port terminal rates
are reduced, however, a further
benoflt will accrue to Intermedi
ate points.
A still further benefit may be
felt, Harvey said, If thu railroads
establish the same port termlnnl
rates at Routt lo as at Portland, he
cause of th maximum require
ment of 100 per cent above port to
port rates applicable to Interme
diate point. '
Cut liiH'rmwIInt ltnto.
Taking the present first-class
merchandise rate of ?J cents .1
hundred between 8nn Francisco
and Portland, Tlnrvey said this
probably would not he reduced,
since, .at that rate, the rail lines
can compete with the wator rate
of 6& cents. However because of
the order limiting Intermedlote
rates to 100 per cent In excess of
the port rates. Intermediate points
would get a maximum rate of 1.44
from San Frnnclsco.
As compared with present rates
this would ho a reduction of 1SH
cents to Ashland, 10 cents to Med
ford, 84 H cents to Orsnts Pass
and SSH cents to Itosoburg. It
would afford no reduction to Eu
gene nnd Snlont. since first-class
rates of I1.S7 and J1.0S respec
tively are already under the 100
per cent maximum.
Similarly, reductions will he af
forded In commodity rates. Among
articles mentioned by Harvey on
which the order will afford reduc
tions to Intermediate points Hnrvoy
mentioned beans and peas, bever
ages, canned goods, cholocato. cof
fee, cordage, dried fruit, glassware.
Iron nnd steel articles, paint sand
varnishes, soap, soda, seeds, sugar,
syrup, auto tires and wire.

ELKS' LODGE PARK
Good news for the ram Dies and
friends of the clerks and carriers,
city und rural, of the Med ford
postoffice Is that the place of thefr
second annual outing and picnic
scheduled for next Sunday will be
the' Klks picnic grounds north of
the city along the Rogue river,
Instead of at the Htar ranger sta
tion locality as last year,
The change was made because
the Elks picnic grounds Is a more
central and nearer place, being
only 12 miles from the city, while
the Star ranger stntlon site, al
though a delightful one for such
an occasion and with a much bet
ter HWimmln" hole, Is fur out In
tho Applegute section. About 100
persons nttended lust yeur's pic
nic, but because of the more cen
tral and quicker reached location
next Hunday's picnic It Is expected,
will attract a greater attendance.
The plcnlq will be of the basket
kind, each family bringing Its own
edibles, and then the entire col
lection of goodies served to all.
All of the picnic food will be of
the home grown kind, except the
lunvltahle picnic cheese, and It Is
greatly deplored by the postoffice

A big "lrrort dance" will be
staged by Medford post No. 16 nn
Friday, July 25th. as a benefit for
the Legion drum corps convention
fund, according to plans outlined I
at last night's meeting. The dance
will be held in the new hangar
at the Medford airport where am
ple room Is available to accommo
date the large crowd which Is ex
pected to attend. The hangar
building has a fine concrete floor
with a "water glass" finish, which
will provide an unusually smooth
surface for the dancers. Dom Pro
vost and his well known "Pep Ped
dlers" will furnLsh the latest In
dance music.
As a special attraction, plans are
being arranged for night flying and
air stunts during the evening of
July 25th. The new airport will
be brilliantly Illuminated with
flood lights and border lights and
all Indications point to one of the
biggest events of the summer sea
son. Seely Hnll will be In charge of
the committee to handle the af
fair, assisted by a committee of
five Legionnaires.
Commander Bolger paid a fine
tribute to Fred Scheffel last night
for the offlcient manner In which
he conducted the Legion Junior
baseball activity this year. Al
though the Medford team got nway
to n late start, they 'showed some
real class In the district champion
ship battle at Rosehurg, holding
their Atrnng opponents scoreless
for five Innings and losing only by
one run. Rcheffel reported -that his
boys would continue practice in an
effort to build up real team for
next year.
Cole Holmes made a report on
the civic affairs committee and ad-
vised that the post !s financing andi
building a croquet court for the(
kiddles at the Legion playground.

WESSON OIL is even more important
in frying than it is in baking or any
other cooking. For you eat fried things
to get the taste of the crisp, Jight crust,
made by the oil you use for frying. You
want to eat it. That's the reason you
like fried foods. And nothing can be
too good to add to this delicate flavor
to its golden-brown color and to its
tastincss. "
Perhaps you have found how much bet
ter things taste when fried with Wesson
Oil. You have wished you could afford
to use it every day . . . You can!
If you have considered this fine salad oil
just a bit of a luxury for every day
frying, try the 4-Pint Frying Size Can.
In this size it's surprising how little it
costs.
