NO ISSUE SOLVED, UNTIL IT'S S0LVZD JljIGHT rV'RIXG tJio recent newer b((nd election oproncjitsof tlie meaHure made many voteM, by capitaliziiiB Governor Meier'g popularity, and making it appear that the Governor of Oregon wanted .his local followers to vote the issue down. It now transpires that later on certain opponents of the bond issue wrote Governor Meier and requested him to cheek up on the state, board of health" and determine why that board liad endorsed the bond isHtie, the supposition being presumably, that the board would either withdraw its endorsement, materially modify it. or that the Governor would be drawn into the con troversy against the proposal. i , If so, they were grievously disappointed. For Governor Meier wisely refused to be drawn into the. controversy on either side, but simply asked the state board of health its opinion of the Medford situation This opinion was given week after the election waajicld. Instead of withdrawing its endorsement, or modifying it in any particular ,t,he state 'board of health reported to Governor Meier as follows: , . . ', ; ( Oregon State Board of Health ' ,! ' ; i."

Deer Sir: The delay In answering your letters referring to the Med ford situation was due to the fact that the state sanitary engineer was out of the city and It was not possible lor me to give you all of the . JaoU at an earlier date. ,-- : i. t n Briefly, the situation In Medford Is that the city has grown very rapidly but the sewerage system has not espanded sufficiently; to a-, , commodate the building activities.- Bear creek is dried up due to Irrl-, 1 gatton and there is not sufficient dilution to properly care for the ef ' flunt from the septo tank. " The aepUc tank la too small to funotlon. ' properly. For this reason numerous complaints Jiavo .been illed with' ua and the local health department complaining of the nuisance. The, situation is undoubtedly a health menace which can only be solved by the building ofi an adequate disposal plant and an extension of j sewer to the utuewered ports of the city, i ,iatatemenU made by Mr. Oreen were that any additions to or, modifications of the .present sewage disposal plant would not be ap-:-. ' provM -because eeptla tank treatment-would not be satisfactory at,: Medford. Thla la true because there Is Insufficient diluting water available In Bear creek, i He at no time atated that any particular type,, of plant must be built, i He referred to the present widely used unlta of. primary treatment, Imhoff tanks and mechanical olarlilers. He, also -stated (that secondary treatment would be necessary in such ar rilant and that eitlter of the two common methods of treatment, trick-,i log (titers or activated sludge,. might be used.. Intermittent sand fll-i, tera were nut referred to because at tho proposed sites titers Is hardly, i enough area available for such units, and since fine sand Is not pros-.. I ent on the site such beds would be costly. .. None of the above pro-. i ceases are patented.. Mechanical clarification equipment is manufac tured by the Door Company and the Hardinge Company. , The Imhoff, tank was originally patented by Dr. Imhoff of Oermauy, hut we are I Informed that ttie patent boa expired and that royalties must no longer - be paid for Imhoff tank installations. . At Jio time lld our eugineer. slate .that any particular dsvlce must be used. ... i, ,.:,.. Mr. Oreen explained the fundamental differences between the old septic tank method of treatment and the modern methods, , He did . Mils In attempting to Inform, the people why a septic tank would not be satisfactory. ....- Re stated .that the estimate of cut of the proposed sewage 'dis posal plant was reasonable. Figures from over the entire country show that the cost of complete sewage treatment varies from ten to twenty dollar per capita. The cost does not Include outfall sewers. The bond Issue was to provide for a new outfall eewer,, the estimated coat of which was more than half the entire amount asked for. Our engineer vlalted Medford because he was asked for by the city officials. At no time did he say that Medford "must" vote the bonds and Install an adequate sewage disposal plant. Be said thoy "should." I believe that the Medford city officials will advise you that the above statements are correct, , It Is a very difficult matter to get cities to realize that proper sew age disposal Is only another means of safeguarding the health of the people. The state law provides that cities shall not dump sowage into streams used for drinking pur-poses. This Is a very difficult law to en force and the state board of health has not pressed the enforcement, especially when the cities are separated by long distances. However, as these cities grow the menace becomes greater and sewage disposal plants are cheaper than epidemics of typhoid fever. . Yours truly, (Signed) FREDERICK D. STRICKER, ' , State Health Officer, If it stronger, more reasonable, more convincing argument in favor of an adequate sewage disposal plant in Medford, could be conceived) we don't know where one would find it. It answers those who maintain all Medford needs is another septic tahk. . It answers those who maintain that the estimated coats of thu trunk sewer AND disposal plant wore, excessive. Coming from one of the most highly respected doctors in the state, it answers those who have -claimed that raw sewage dump-' ed into a shallow creek in the business center of the city is not a menace to health, . But, as Dr. .Strieker, well says : "It is a difficult matter to get elites to reallm that proper sewace disposal Is only another means of safeguarding the health of the peo ple." It is also (I .diffiuult matter in fact, we fear it is almost an possible task to pass any bond issue exceeding $100,000 in Med ford at the present timo. , What then should be done! In our opinion, just what we suggested the day after the election, call in the best sanitary engineer available, have him make a complete survey, and tell us what, in view of the circumstances, CAN be done. , I ; . t i ' 17E HAVE no desire to stir up dissension, or revive a ciiii troversy that for the immediate present, is dead. lint as far as this sewer problem is concerned, it isn't sct tledi unlit it is settled KIGJ1T. And it isn't settled RIGHT, until it provides for the proper protection of the health of this eomtminity. , ' , And popular or unpopular, we are going to fight right iilong that line if it takes all summer or. a dozen summers, " w TpilKRK are two general types of newspapers. Those that try to find out what is popular in a community and then sup port it j and those that try to find out what is HKST for a com munity and then support that i. e. try to make it popular.. The Mail Tribune . is now, and always has been, in the latter category. Wo believe this sewage disposal problem must be solved, because we believe that. thu health and the better welfare of this community demand it. ' The less Medford will have to pay for that solution, the bet ter we will like it. lSut sooner or later anil the sooner the better- the PUOMI.KM M.IST BK SObVKD.

' It is a curious spectacle the governor of a commonweulth granting a 'moratorium 1 to- motor vehicle owners, without a bhadow of authority in law -and In defi ance of the letter and spirit of tho law, und thereby demoraliz ing state finances in a grandBtand play to win popularity. The ex ecutive acts in this case, as he has In -many other Instances, as if the governor had dictatorial powers to nullify the statutes at will. The auto owner Is no harder up Itnunciaily than any other tax payer and there is -no reason he should be singled out for special favors. If he cannot afford to pay a license, he should go without tho luxury until he can. In fact moat of them would be better off without uiilos. It will be just ub hard to pay a license fee later us It .is now. All the governor accomplishes is to encouiuse tax slackers and promote contempt for tho law by sanctioning its violation, thereby increasing the expense of collec tion and depriving the state of Its legalised revenues.

And jot, like most Of tho. advice Mr. Patrl gives, this recommendation Is bucked by sound logic nnd level-headed, sympathetic under standing or the world In whleh our children live with us. The newspaper is the day's rec ord, and it is "hard" for two rea sons.

Second, the world whose func tioning It records is a hard world, blurred wilh very little of the make-believe that makes the world habitable to the child. But with nil its obvious defects a literature for children, the news paper Is the day's record. Now the child Is going eventual. ly to get his record of the day one wny or another, he Is going to get It.

Their first child was a normal daughter. Their second, a 'son, was a dwarf, small al though not deformed. Sir Nicholas' mother came to visit him and Alethea learned then why Nicholas was so morose over his Bon, Hans, thot he could not beur to look at hint- The father's feeling of inferiority be cause of his inherited ' "dwarf's blood", was almost a mania. The novel is a study of dwarfs' minds in big bodies and a big mind In a dwarf's body.
