TICKETS TO TANK ROTARY'S GIFT TO LS forrlng to the Medford situation, ; "nd we think that considering tho urgent necessity of taking remedial ! measures to do away with the worst features of the present septic tank until a' new disposal system can be built, the plan we have suggested despite the fact of the olty lucking ready funs for the purpose is possible. "Most any person or organization can do a thing In an ordinary way. but this Is an extraordinary problem and there is a way out, as we have outlined. Sufficient monoy can be borrowed from tho banks to employ a specialist engineer and gel rid of the worst features of the present sop tie tank system, until an entlro now sewage disposal plant can be con structed." In the informal talk that followed on the suggested plan between mom tiers of the citizens' committee and .city officials, It was finally tenta tively agreed 'that the cltlwins' com mittee would onlarge Its membership from 12 to 18 members, which on largcmont would be roportod back to the city council meeting tonight, and that the latter committee would co-operate in selecting an engineer specialist and also In the future In solving the sewage problem. Adoption Forecast ; The outlook Is that the city coun cil tonight will formally adopt the eltlrens' committee proflercd solution plan. The proposed enlargod .cltlnens' committee Is as follows! W. J. Warner, Geo. Sohumake, C. B. Oates, V. J. Emcrlck, Ray Tuckor. F. K. Cummlngs, B. O. Koppen, Oleo Arnaplger, Paul B. Rynnlng, Dr. E. B. Plckel, Dr. R. B. Green, Dr, A. K. Dorison.

Ing on July 24: "Resolved, that It Is the concensus of this committee that the city council should employ a competent consulting engineer, one who makes a specialty of outlining and planning sowerago disposal systems, for the purpose of making plans and specliu. cations for a sewerage disposal By' tern sufficient for the present ana also the future needs of the city of Medford and the estimated cost oi same; a system which would taxe care of our future needs and out lined In such a manner that we could build at once, or as soon as advisable, that part of the system that Is necessary at the present time. and that It should be planned in such a manner that whon the need aroso for any additional work, it oould be proceeded with from the plans submitted without any further engineering oxpense. "It la also recommended that tho finances necessary for the employ ment pf said onglneer be raised im mediately and the same be placed In the budget this fall and collected and paid for out of ne year's taxes." - An announcement of keen Interest to the boys and girls of this com munlty has Just been made public by the Meed ford Rotary club. The lo cal Rotarlans have purchased 1000 swim ticket from Merrick's nata to ri um and will distribute them to de serving children who are unable to pay for swimming privileges. The tickets will be distributed through the 'Medford Chamber of Commerce on the basis of so a day. Each ticket entitles the child to not only a free swim but a suit and towel as well, No tickets will be given adults. This novel plan was worked out by the "Community Service" committee of the Medford Rotary club to pro vide swimming advantages for local kiddles during the rest of the hot weather this season. The Rotarlans have been working on a plan for community swimming pool for some time and hope to be able to put over this worthy project next year. For the time being however tho free swim tickets should take care of all worthy youngsters who want to swim and lack the necessary funds. Local citizens are urged to co-operate with the Rotarlans In recommending only worthy cases. The plan is now lu op eration and tickets are available at the chamber of commerce! building.

Will Henry, spokesman for the Dairy Co-operative association, who earlier declared his organization would not arbitrate, said he Is willing to place all facts befpre the board appointed by Mayor George L. Baker. A. M. Work, representing tne ua. trlbutors, agreed to arbitrate the con. troversy. Demand Better Price. Tho dairymen demand a price bet ter than the average of three cents a quart the distributors have been paying them. In an attempt to force tho higher price a strike was declared last Friday. Thousands of gallons of milk consigned to distributors was destroyed and trucks were unloaded snd dumped, forcing distributors to Import milk from outside the state. Tho "fact finding ' commission ap pointed toy the mayor was to meet again this afternoon. At yesterday s session the two warring factions took under consideration the commission1 proposal that the distributors begin buying their milk from the co-operative at a price of 12.17 per 100 pounds. Make Compromise. This Is a compromise as against the aa.io offered by the distributors, and 12.25 demanded by the association. The plan calls for putting this temporary solution In effect pending final decision of the question by a board of arbitration. The price would remain at ta.17-4 during tho negoti ations and subject to further change by the arbitration board. Inasmuch as distributors are con tracted to April 30, 1032. to buy some milk from Independents, these con tracta would be carried out until that date, aftor which all milk would be obtained from the co-operative. Mm Deliveries. It appeared today that the farm ers and their association had effec tively blocked delivery of the usual supply to the group of Independent distributors they are fighting, neces sitating importation of milk from Washington andi California. This milk la not Inspected by tho city and therefore can not be sold as grade A or B.

They had flown thruout the short night In the land of the midnight sun, tracing their route along the upper rim of Canada's mainland In a straight-Una flight from Baker lake, off the west shore of Hudson Bay. Never before had the northwest Teirltorles been spanned In a single Jump, even by the fearless northland filers whose livelihood Is made In flying over the lake-dotted tundra country. The takeoff was made at 6:35 E. S. T. last night, after the outside world had come to the con clusion that the Lindberghs would spend a second night -at Baker lake. Along the edge of the Arctic circle the daring flight of the trim plane had been directed, but not a word of Vie progress of the top -of-the-world dash was received by radio stations listening eagerly In the north. Akla vlk lies 130 miles within the Arctic circle, while Baker lake is a similar distance outside. . - At Aklavlk, the Lindberghs have completed more than 3000 miles of their 7000-mllo tour from New, York to Tokyo. They have completed five hops In as many days, resting over night after each jump. But the Baker Lake-Aklavlk trip was tie first to extend through the night. While the Lindberghs appeared fresh after their long flight. It seemed certain they would rest here overnight before pressing on to Alaska. .
