It was announced at the Crater
National forest olllce headquarters
here .today that from now on no In
formation will be ilven out from
there. In accordance with Instruc
tions of C. J. Buck, the regional
forester, with headquarters at Port
land, about fires In that forest.
It la explained that the reason
for withholding such information la
because the news about new forest
fires and the number of fighters
employed to quell them, attracts
from the outside many undesirable
men. as well as some worthy ones,
to the city In hopes of getting Jobs
as temporary fighters.
Most undesirables when through
working on a forest fire remain In
the city, and will take any Job
whatever at most any price, and
thus prevent much work being given
needy local men.
Many Fires Set.
Many of the forest fires In the
Crater National forest area are of
known or suspected Incendiary origin
and it is thought by the forest
service that there may be less fires
Btarted by persons with the view
In mind of getting a Job In aiding
to extinguish them. If information
Is suppressed. The forest service
desires to cut down the number of
undesirable outsiders, through less
publicity being given to forest fires
in this area, In the hope that fewer
forest fires will result.
Then, too, the forest service would
rather help out the local unemploy
ment situation by putting home
men to work In fighting fires, than
by hiring transients. As It has been,
when a new large fire Is reported
In the forest, the officials of the
latter summon the required number
of emergency fire fighters from the
streets In the business section, and
thereby the Idle outsiders loitering
around for Just such a call are
corralled, because, of being found
quickly.
Plenty Available.
Plenty, of local men needing work
can be found for forest fire flght
tlng. the local forest officials say.
and the 30 cents an hour paid for
such work is badly needed by many
of these men and their families.
It Is expected that Dwlght Phlpps,
district state fire warden In charge
of fighting fires on state protected
lands In this area, will co-operate
with the regional forester In with
holding forest fire Information, but
when questioned this afternoon he
stated that he had as yet received
no such request from him. In the
absence of such a formal request
from Mr. Buck, Phlpps declined to
discuss the subject.

Three Jesuit priests, en route to
Alaska, where they carry on their
religious work, stopped Sunday noon
at the Medford airport for about an
hour and a half to refeul their
monoplane "The Alaskan Missionary,"
piloted by Q. P. Feltee, one or tne
priests.
The plane, which has a Diesel
engine, was refueled by B. C. (Jerry)
Jerome, representative of the Texas
Oil company, only distributors In
Medford of Diesel - oil. The men
had flown to this city from 8an
Francisco In less than three and a
half hours. They plan to have the
airplane dismantled at Seattle, and
shipped north.
Father Feltes Is noted as an ex
plorer as well as pilot In the north
ern country, and Is the regular pilot
for the other members of the order,
who do not' have headquarters In
any particular city.
Some time ago the plane being
used by the Jesuits In Alaska crashed
and burned, with two priests losing
their lives. The regular pilot was
not In charge of the ship the day
of the accident, members of the
party told Mr. Jerome.
The men are planning to resume
their duties In the mission field Im
mediately upon their arrival there,
having Just purchased the plane
they are now flying, at the factory
In the east.

gon products the unemployment sit
uation will not only be taken care
of but there wilt be enough work for
