SEWAGE PLANT To the Kditor: The following letter is one of many received from the' State Hoard of Health relating to the , sewage situation in Medford: June 29, 1931. Mayor and City Council, Medford, Oregon. Gentlemen: Under date of June 1Q, 1930, I advised you that the city of Med ford should anticipate the need of and proceed at an early date with the design of a modern sewage dis posal plant, to eliminate, the nuisance and public health men ace created by the dumping of the Medford city septic tank effluent into Bear creek. The creek during a large part of the year affords very little dilution of the sewage, consequently, it is inadequate to receive the Medford sewage unless the sewage is com pletely treated and stabilized. Chlorlnation of the present septic tank effluent may help somewhat in decreasing the public health menace, but will not appreciably correct the nuisance along Bear creek. The stream is not only so polluted that it creates a nuisance and contaminates vegetables irri gated by it, but it also pollutes I$ajye river which is used by the cities of Gold Hill and Grants Pass fop'drinking water. People of Medford should vote at the coming July election bonds necessary for the construction of a much needed sewage , disposal plant. The services of a compe tent sanitary engineer should be secured to assist with the design of the plant. The State Board of Health will not approve of any plana not providing for complete treatment. Very truly yours, FREDKKICK D. STR1CKER, State Health Officer. Radio Program KMED (Mall Tribunt-Vlrgin Station) ONLY 2 DAYS LEFT! TONITE - TOMORROWI REX BEACH'S Punch-Swift Story of These Moderns!

The mayor and Individual members of the council have been confronted many times by property owners residing along the , creek channel and every season the .council has inspected the grounds and' present disposal plant in an endeavor to solve the problem. We have known the situation to be bad and have realized that there was no way to avoid responsibility for health, epidemic, and property damage conditions other than to construct a modern disposal sys tem. We have made as extensive and thorough Investigation as possible to do with the limited finances available. , The. final .determination of plant .and its construction will come through approval of the state board of health and the ad vice of an experienced engineer to be employed when funds are made available by the proposed bond Issue. Engineers consulted have stated a cost of $40,000 for every 1,000,- 000 gallons of sewage. Medford has , from three to four million gallons of sewage to dispose of. This gives a total ot $120,000 to $1 CO, 000 as an estimated cost. The council believes the cost determln ed as a basis for the bond issue to be conservative and what should be at the disposal of the engineers to be employed. Should the esti mated $235,000 exceed the final requirement the excess bonds will bo Immediately cancelled. The trunk sewer is an absolute nocessity to complete our sanitary program. The proposed charter amend ment to authorize a sewer assess ment, against sewer users, for bond redemption is' of secondary consideration. This question is merely a suggestion submitted to the people. Bond redemption will be provided for through taxation if this amendment Is not favored. The unfavorable comments thus far published have, no doubt, been well meant and without due con sideration for the problem before us. The citizens of Medford must remember that the council has boon faced by conditions to give this matter consideration. It Is fully understood by all members and the election called for July 15th represents the final determi nation of the city's requirements. Members of the council regret bond Issues as much as do all others hut conditions demand action, the Improvement will be made at minimum cost, and we sincerely hope for approval of the proposed issue.

Wvo. r- ' ' ( Funeral services will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from the Stock Chapel with Rev. Mitchelmore In charge. JoHef Koestner, internationally famous conductor, will load Ward's Trail Blazer oreherdra.. which will be tho first of a series of four re search broadcasts of one week each, beginning today, on a coast-to-coast National BroadvaMlng Co. network, of 35 stations. This series of four .program sponsored by Montgomery Ward & Co., inaug urates for tho first time in radio history a nation-wide research for the type of program most popular with tho "llstenrs-ln." Heretofore, the likes and dis likes of the radio audience have been largely a dinner-table topic within tho family or represented by the turn of the dial at the radio. Believing that tho listener should bo his own Judge, Montgomery Ward & Co. will offer four widely differnt types of program for four successive weeks, Sundays except ed, and let tho audience select the.' type which is to the liking ot the majority. For the opening program today, tho orchestra headed by Mr. Koost ner includes musicians of national reputation in concert and radio. Notable among them is . George Bass, violinist and composer, who or; almost 25 yearn was firnt vio linist with tho Chicago Symphony orchestra, one of tho nation's out standing musical organizations. An other famous member of the or chestra is Vincent Mlraglla, harp ist, who has been heard txs soloist on ma ny mi t ional rad io progra inn originating in Chicago studio. Josef Koestncr received his mus leal eductaion in tho classic schools of the old world and has gained marked recognition In America. He begijn his study wJhen but four years of ago, and his first concert appearance was In Bomborg, Ba varia, an a child of eight. Later ho studied violin and orgnn and appeared in Germany with tho Waldenburg Civic orchestra, tho Leipzig Popular Symphony orches tra, nnd with musical organizations in Berlin, Klattowitz nnd llroslau. For two years he was coach at the Leipzig opera Tiouse, Mr. Koestnor always memorizes tho score of his entire oencert bo fore a broadcast, never being do pendent upon tho munic before him tlurln gthe progress of tho concert. These young people from the southland will givo the songs of their race as they have learned them in tho rural churches and in the cotton fields of the Black Belt. They do not use instrumental ac companiment. No admission charge will be made for the concert but an offer ing will lie received. The young people who make up the group are students from the i'lney Woods school a tut are singing fir the Institution, or rather are doing this Instead of the work they might ho doing at the school this summer to pay for their next winter's schooling. While tho concert is being held at tho Methodist church. It is hoped that it will be understood that the Methodist church is only acting as hosts and that everyone is invited. PLEAD CAUSE OF IL BOSSES TO LAKE Tho first official Ulp of the Crater Lake stages was made to day, with one bus, driven by W. L. Dunnigan leaving at 9:15, and the second, driven by George G.

The mother of Vincent Marcelle. a Portland youth, who wllh George Flfer, former navy enlisted man. confessed to three hold-ups in this city last week, visited her boy in the county jail late yester day and interviewed the district attorney. Voting Marcelle told the author ities he was IS years of age, but his mother says he Is only 14. She says the vital statistics of the city of Portland will prove her contention. The mother also says her son attended Hill Military Academy In Portland, and that the record of that Institution will also show her son only 14. The d tat rid attorney's office will invest ign to the age quest Ion. If young Marcelle Is below 1 S years of age, steps will be taken to have him committed to tho State He form school at Salem, until his majority. IE FORD COMPANY LOANS DETROIT 5 MILLIONS DETROIT.
