Prof. Warren D. Smith, head of
the neology department at the Uni
versity of Oregon and president of
the Eugene Rotary club, talked to
local Rotarlana today at luncheon at
the Hotel Medford on the aubject of
South America.
The lnteroat of the North Ameri
cana In Bout.. America he Justfled
by the following reason : First, Mour
four-and-a- half billion dollar In
vestment In South America, much of
which either has been or may be
lost;" second, "the difference In cul
ture between North and South
America." and "third, the lessons In
need to learn from the South Americans."
Alter explaining te great differ
ences In the historical background of
the two peoples, Prof. Smith went
on to discuss the significance of the
Pan-Latin movement, which cuts
across this country's own Pan -Americanism.
Among the topics dwelt upon was
Che interesting experiment in applied
sociology carried on by La Prema, the
great Buenos Aires newspaper.
Professor Smith told the Rotarlana
about his visits to Rotary clubs In
Valparalson, Santiago, Buenos Aires
and Uruguay, and of the things Vie
Rotarlans there were doing toward
the betterment of their communities.
He was in South America at the time
of the recent revolution and visited
six of the most important countries,
Rotnrlan W. P. Bnlrd, pastor of the
First Christian church, announced a
special Easter service for men and
boys to be held at the Rlalto theatre
next Sunday morning at 0:30, and In
vited all Rotarlana to attend. Em 11
Mohr, well known member of the
local club, was given a hearty wel
come by his fellow Ronrlans after
n long absence on account of Illness.
Visiting Rotarlans at the session
included Warren D. Smith, president
of the Eugene Rotary club; K. II.
Jnenlcke of Ban Francisco, and J. C.
Stevens and Carl Bruutsch of Port

ON FRIDAY'S SCHEDULE
At the regular social night of the
Eagles' lodge and auxiliary Friday.

Struggle for Independence." Dancing,
cards and refreshments will also be
Included on the program.

is problematical, and depends largely
upon local economic conditions.
The action of the state bank heads
in consummating the transfer of the
funds and thereby making available
for local business and circulation
$760,000 In deposits that might have
otherwise been idle for an Indefinite
period acted as a tonic on conditions.
The move also averted a possible run,
or application for receivership.
Airplane Brings Currenry
An airplane with $1,000,000 In cur
rency arrived Monday afternoon for
distribution In Jackson county banks
as a precautionary measure. The
shipment came from Portland upon
orders from the Federal Reserve bank
of Son Francisco. Arrival of the
treasure was not known until It had
been stored away In bank vaults.
Collapse of the Jackson County
bank, established In 1888, was the
cause of wide regret and was em
piratically attributed to a "whisper
ing campaign." The deposit with
drawals started early this year and
reached their peak Friday and Sat
urday morning. Public opinion has
already started to manifest an aver
sion to rumors and fattllng on a
wholesale basis.
Liy Probe "Whispers"
There Is a federal and state law
making circulation of false state
ments about the condition of a bank
a felony with a heavy prison sen
tence as a penalty. No Information
upon any possible legal action against
"whisperers" has been revealed by
authorities. It Is predicted It will be
called to the attention of both state
and federal grand Juries at an early
date for a probing.
No decision .has been reached upon
the disposition of the Jackson Coun
ty bank building or Its fixtures and
equipment.

Tomato plants numbering approxl
mately half a million are being
grown by three greenhouses for the
Bagley Canning company, according
j to W. A. O ate, a member of the
board of directors for the cannery.
Two greenhouses In Medford and
one In Ashland are handling the
plants previous to their distribution
to the various growers In the valley.
A special variety of plant Is being
raised by the nurserymen, the seeds
being obtained for them by the can
nery. At the present time the
growers are transplanting the small
plants, Mr. Gates said.
"Many people ask why the can
nery is not operated on a year
around basis," Mr. Gates ho Id, "but
they do not seem to realize that It
takes eight months of the year to
handle the tomato crop."
G. E. Pierce's greenhouse here la
now caring for 250,000 of the small
plants, and at the present time has
seven men employed.. The young
plants are being transplanted In
order to make them sturdier. Insur
ing a large crop for the growers.
Mr. Gates pointed out.
In the latter part of April the
tomatoes will be moved from, the
greenhouse to the various land tracts
of the growers who hold contracts
with the cannery.
"Because of the continual care
necessary to the success of the toma
toes, a large number of Rogue river
people are employed In getting the
rrop ready for the cannery," Mr.
Gates said.
