PAGE EIGHT JfEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1931. ASK COUNCIL FOR TEETH JN RULES Bootleg Milk Would Be ' Barred by Amendment ; Strict Street Sign Ordi . nance Action Is Deferred As an aftermath of the recent milk war In Portland between the producers and distributors, and the one In Medford between the pro ducers and one distributor, both or which were won by the producers, tbe Jackson County Dairymen's as sociation seeks to have the cltys standard milk ordinance made more iibui w unvent any dobbidio DOOl- legging of undesirable milk In case of future wars. The association's committee, con lstlng of County Agent R. O. rowier,' dick Straus at Sams Valley nd William J. Warner of Medford, asked the city council last night to adopt an amendment to the milk ordinance' forbidding sale or din trlbutlon of any grade of milk below grade B. This proposed putting of teeth 'Into the ordinance, the com mittee says, would eliminate the bringing in of milk from uninspected names.. - In the Portland milk war It is claimed that raw,, uninspected milk was shipped In by the producers rrom as far distant points as Ban Francisco. The proposed amend ment Is the same as that adopted by the Portland council. , The council, after hearing R. O. Fowler, the committee's spokesman. referred the proposed amendment to the council health committee, con sisting of W. W. Allen, chairman, J. O. Orey and O. C. Darby, for In vestigation and the matter will probably, be voted on at the next council meeting. .. ; - Oakdale Grocery Ordinance. " An ordinance approved by the city planning commission, which would enable the proprietors of the Oak dslo , grocery . building at Oakdale 'and Eleventh streets, through the reclassification- of the. building as business property, to enlarge and beautify the structure for continued use of ..the store, In anticipation of mliph , Increased trade when the new high school opens, . was given Its tint and second readings last night, and will come up for final passage two weeks hence. - Seventy-six per cent of the adja cent ' property owners and 74 per jnt of the property owners of the area., have signed petitions approving ths remodeling and beautifying of the store building, which has been used for business purposes for the past IT years,' and long before the elty planning commission came Into being. ,, It can continue In lt present con tltlon, but to remodel, enlarge and beautify requires that It. be re classified as. business property. r At first Circuit Judge H, D. Nor ton, whose fine home on Oakdale Is opposite the grocery, was disposed to object; but when he Investigated the situation fully. such objection changed to approval. Sign Ordinance Defeated. ' ' A new ordinance, which would eliminate unsightly present wooden and non-tllumlnated signs and which was drawn by the olty council committee on building and llghtr D. R. Terrett, chairman; O. O. Darby and P. M. Kershaw and City Elec trical Inspeotor Frank Rogers, was defeated, 4 to 8, on its first read ing, but later was referred to the building and light committee and streets ' and . roads committee for Joint consideration, to be reported back to the council at Its next meeting. . As the ordinance would permit only Illuminated signs, to be erected In the business district, would per mit such signs to project across the sidewalk within certain restrictions, raise the sign permits from 60c to 2.00, and contained other revolu tionary featuree. there was a dif ference 'of opinion on various fea tures, and the mayor and majority of oouncllmen favored further study of the subjeot. , The proposed ordinance, among other things, , would forbid erection of any sign, which would project more 'than six Inches from a build ing, unless Illuminated; would do away with signs Illuminated by a reflected glow, and atlpulated that when an owner of a sign removes from a building such sign must be tsken down. Altogether some of the council men thought the ordinance too dras tic, and all but the members ot the lighting committee favored the drawing up of a more moderate ordinance. P. M. Kershaw was the only councilman absent. An amendment was adopted to the city electrical code, passed yoars ago, to bring It up to dale t I giving the electrical Inspector more au thority In enforcing Its provisions. As foretold by yesterdsy's Msll Tribune Dr. B. 1. Legeson was elected to fill the vacancy on the city planning commission. ., - i.i STORY 3 (Continued From Pago Ono) r LOCAL THEATERS A crew of workmen are busy this week Installing the latest type, spring upholstered auditorium and loge seats In the Fox Rlalto theatre.

He Is a reporter on the San Fran cisco Dairy News, and handles the east side bay news for that publica tion, taking In Richmond, Berkeley, etc., with his domicile, at which he is frequently seen hoeing the potatoes In the back yard, at Berkeley. Mr. Terrell, and he Is designated as "mister" with certain limitations, sees a greatly changed Medford from the one he used to know bigger, bet ter, more beautiful tend some other things, but admits that he has a fondness for the city, and notes with sadness some of the changes. For 1 usance, he misses the old wat ering trough at the public market front where, when he was. a kid, he spent many happy hours drinking water with the horses and stray dogs, following romps inside the - market with the pumpkins and rutabagas. His chief other diversion in those days was dodging the Medford-Jack-. sonvllle street car, the noise of which In Its swift coursing on Main street, was sweet music to him. He also misses Oliver Davidson's former cigar stand and news Joint, now Clco's placev In front Of which he was wont ,to spend .much ;'tlmo, watching the busy' feminine pedes trian traffic at Fir and Main streets. His vacations from the high school were spent In employment at Crater national park when Alex Sparrow was superintendent of the park, and the latter was nearly worried to distrac tion In consequence thereof until the vacation season was over. . - Our naive rural ways are such a delight to Irv:n that he Is hugely enjoying his vacation and wishes that it was several weeks longer. -4 OUT OF CONTROL SALEM, Aug. 19.-MAP) A forest fire covering 1600 acres and raging out of control In Union county was the only one reported by the state forestry department here today. Two hundred and fifty men were put onto the fire In an effort to check the flames, which are burniiig up the green timber In that area. The fire Is located along Catherine creek STORY 2 (Continued From Page One) City In Darkness ' Virtually all of Hankow was with out power, light and Ice. The' tele phone system broke down.

Buildings In the older cities were collapsing, entrapping occupants by the score. . 1 Authoritative foreign sources ' as serted that despite t.'ie menace ot epidemics, Chinese authorities had dono nothing In the way ot sanita tion. Persistent rumors of threaten ed communist attacks heightened the terrors for the three cities. -, A Japanese naval report said com munist bsnds were moving toward Hankow along the left bank ot the Yangtse near Kluklang.

Sea to the Sea of Marmora, 10 miles, In five hours, yes terday. She swam the straits length wise, whereas . Leander only swam across once a night to visit the lovely Hero. Miss draw's father with two friends followed In a small boat, giv ing her hot' chocolate from time to time, playing music on a talking machine continuously. The lively airs of the phonograph doubtless helped ' as much as the chocolate, which Is a nourishing food, excellent stimulant for the muscles.

SPECKS OF DUST IN EACH CUBIC INCH OF AIR THEY BREATHE. ; If the number of dust specks In each cubic Inch of air rises as high' as sixty million units, workers are ln serious danger. '. In a majority 'of granite plants, workers breathe air with about sixty million units to the cublo Inch, and many die of consumption after twen ty years. ' ' It Is amusing also how many germs a child's constitution will stand In a cubic Inch of milk.' But when the germs run into too many millions, they make trouble. Simple devices protect stone cutters, lsmple pasteurizing protects milk drinkers.

Mrs. Lindbergh appealed to Ochllshl wire- toss station for the position or two ships, the Kokusal Maru and the Shlmushlru Maru, both ot which sho knew were In her vicinity. Appri'lmtHlaii Hhown. That the Lindberghs themselves were somewhat apprehensive of the dangers was Indicated in the mess ages asking for positions of nearby vessels. Mrs. Lindbergh repeated the request several times before landing. At Ketol the Lindberghs were In the rralm of the Hairy Ainu, a primi tive people Inhabiting the Kurllrs. The Ainu live In caves and hunt and flch with the crudest Instruments. Word of tho Lindberghs' apparently brought them out of their caves, for a glimpse at the "great man bird."
