DEUEL BUILDING ' FINANCE PLANS CARRY PROMISE Progress Is being made In the financing and construction plans for the new business block at Main and Bartlett streets on the alts of the Deuel building, according to Halbert S. Deuel, manager of the Deuel estate, who recently returned from a trip to San Francisco where he conferred upon the subject. Pre liminary details were approved by San Francisco agencies and for warded east for further approval and any changes that may be de cided upon. It la the plan as first announced, to start construction next fall and to have It completed and ready for occupancy by January 1, 1933. It la understood the building will be occupied under a long time lease. It will necessarily take consider able time to arrange the prelim inary details and no contracts will be considered or let until they are completed. The site Is one of the best in the business section of Medford It was gutted by a night fire two years ago. Plans for reconstruction were well underway when the Wall Street crash caused an abandon ment of the plans. Notional con ditions have recently returned to a point 1 ld, where they could be resumed. 4 BIRTHS Proposal of the Rogue River Traf fic association and t'-'e Northwest Traffic association for tngea in the refrigeration service of railroads meaning substantial savings to grow ers and shippers, is now before the National Perishable Freight associa tion, with headqxiarters in Chicago. The plan calls for the Initial icing and one re-lclr.g en route of fruit shipments, applicable to late fall and winter varieties, but not the Bart letts. The present rate la 9110 per car to New York City and 96 to Chicago. The new rate as proposed Is 963 to New York and 58 to Chi cago. The old rate Includes a half dozen Icings, which the Traffic as sociations claim can be eliminated at a saving of from 25,000 to (50,000. It Is estimated that this valley would affect a saving on from 1000 to 1300 winter variety pear shipments that could travel under certain weather conditions with but one re telng. The matter has been under discus sion by the traffic association for a year. Efforts of the traffic association and the Fruitgrowers League to have Prof. Henry Hartman, pear expert, as signed to exclusive work In this state, have, been denied by the bureau of plant industry, according to a letter received by Senator McNary from the dlrector-ln-chlef. The reason given for the refusal is lack of funds, and that Prof. Hartmann haa a skilled staff and fully equipped laboratory at Wenatchee, Wash., where be Is now stationed. Prof. Hartmann Is now In New York City, where he Is con cluding storage tests of valley pears. DER G 100 FOR INJURY A Jury in the circuit court late Friday returned a verdict for Willis Alexander, Eagle Point, In his dam age suit against P. K. Miller, Salem apartment house owner, In toe sura of $400. Alexander asked for 820, 000 general damages. The suit was based upon an accident which oc curred last summer near Eagle Point when Alexander was engaged with others in moving an engine on an auto trailer. The trailer, It was claimed, loos ened, causing the engine to fall on Alexander's foot, crushing It. Miller formerly operated a farm In the Eagle Point district. An appeal will probably be filed by Miller. Famous Barrymores At The Craterian LIONEL B AJ2EVMORE , KAREN MODLEY and JOHN BARRYMOIiE h'ARSENE LUPIN' An auspicious evont of the 1932 screen season Is the opening today at the Fox Craterian theater of "Arsene Lupin," marking the first Joint appearance of John Barry more and Lionel Barrymore In any motion picture. The well known mystery stories of Maurice Le Blanc which Idealize the debonair French thief. Arsene Lupin, supplied the motivation for the first appearance together of America's most distinguished broth er Btars, the Barrymores. The screen version, which is said to be concerned as much with sophisticated humor as with the unwinding of the clever mysteries perpetuated by the master thief of Paris, also emphasizes the romantic love affair between John Bnrrymore as the thief and Miss Morley as the police spy who poses aa a coun tess in order to track down the elusive drawing room criminal, but subsequently endangers her reputa- tlono In order to protect the chorm I lng robber. I Lionel Barrymore'a role as the de 1 tective Is said to outshine even his ; effective work in "Matl Harl" and i "A Free Soul," and It Is his oft baffled attempts to catch the gen j tleman thief, who resorts to the ;most amazing disguises and tricks to elude detection, that results In most of the picture's dramatic mo ments. 1 The climax of the story takes place in a replica of the famous Louvre Art Gallery of Paris, a re production that entailed collection of hundreds of paintings. It is here ; that John Barrymore effects his master disguise as a flower seller and from which ultimately he makes a sensational escape. Other important players In "Ar jsene Lupin" include Tully Marshall. , Karen Morley and John MUJan.
