aon and adopted by the relief pro
gram outlined by the waya and
mean committee of the Medford
Association of Unemployed. A ways
and means committee, representing
the city, waa authorized to cooper
ate with the committee from the
unemployed in putting the plan Into
Immediate action. The two groupa
will act u a board of control to pro
mote the relief program.
The meeting waa the largeat and

Growers' league. Traffic aaaoclatlon.
financial lnatttutlona and Induatrlea,
a well ae the unemployed popula
tion, were In attendance.
Program Detailed by Borne
The program developed by the
joblea through week of earneat
conalderatlon of the altuatlon waa
traced by J. 0. Barne, their spokes
man. Through the uae of chart and
the written recommendation of the
association he explained In detail the
demand and operation of the pro
gram, which through cooperative ef
fort will supply food, ahelter, light
and water to the unfortunate rank
who are anxiously awaiting the diy
when the wheels of indiutry will Ue
turning again.
Before Introducing the plan, which
provides for an exchange of labor
for aupplle and service, Mr. Barnes
traced the history of Medford to im
press upon his audience the serious
ness of the present dsy problem and
the obligation owed the ranks, who
have participated In the progress cf
the city, only to find themeeive to
(sy with all "the work finished."
Many llrk Necessities
"Many famlllea are without milk.
many others are unable to pay for
the mountain aprlng water, of which
Medford ha boasted. Many more
are unable to pay for their 'lights,"
Mr. Barne pointed out.
"They heve been builder nd
spenders," he declared, "and certain
ly deserve to remain workers.t That
1 all they are asking. They can no
longer pay for these services in cash.
So we have devised a plan whereby
they may pay for them In labor."
Under the program advanced a
business agent's office will be pro
Tided by the city council, without
ettra burden upon the taxpayer.
The Unemployed association will
issue labor agreement, which will
be exchanged for services and In
turn sold and the lunds, derived,
placed In care of the city treasury.
The man no longer able to pay for
the water aupply In hi borne, for
example, wlU Join the aaaoclatlon.
which act a a responsible agent to
the city. He will alga an individual
labor agreement for the amount of
water to be used. He will In turn
receive an order for the water and '
labor agreement, endorsed by the un
employed to the amoun of the ordei ,
which the city will accept for water
payment In lieu of caeh.
Provision of light and other pro
duct, necessary to subsistence,
would be supplied under the same
general plan.
The eligibility of applicant under
the program will depend upon coun
ty citizenship and ruling by a com
mittee. Provide Storehouse
Another feature of the recom
mendations, adopted at the open
meeting, provide for the creation of
a atorehouae In which supplies can
be stored for distribution. Steps
will be tsken to trade with farmers
for fruit and vegetabela.
Provision will also be made for the
clty'a unemployed youth through or
ganization of a club for work and
study. Recreation camps are sug
gested a a further development
along thle line.
Stressing the need to keep Med
ford people within their homes, Mr.
Barnes celled attention to the fact
that of the unemployed 'ranka reg
istered in the recent call, nine out
of ten expressed the desire to "return
to the soil, to get back on the land."
Want No Transients
"We want these men to atay within
their houses," he stated In refuta
tion of such a program, "and we
want the unemployed of other reg
ions to stay out of here. The In
fluence of previous advertising of
Medford, Mr. Barnes cited the
cause of the probable gathering lure
of many transient.
Following presentation of the rec
ommendations. Mayor Wilson called
for open discussion. W. A. Oatea In
response Introduced a proposal for
equal division of employment a a
solution, stating that h would will
ingly add to the staff of his stores
If other merchant and business men
would do the same. Under hia sug
gestion the socialistic plsn of divid
ing the work among the workers
would be adopted. The suggestion
wa followed by spirited applause
from the unemployed rank but no
action was taken regarding the mat
ter. O. O. Alenderfer voiced his ap
proval of the recommendetlona pre
sented. A repeated call for discus
sion brought no more comment from
the floor and the resolution was pre
sented and adopted.
A meeting of the Joint committee
will be oalled In thr near future,
with the following group continuing
to represent the unemployed: Ouy
L. Ray, Prank L. Applegate, K. J.
KnuUon, H, O. Wilson and W. H.
Jarmln.
EXECUTION STAY
A iUy of execution and writ of
probable causa waa Issued thla morn
ing by the atate supreme court In be
half of A Win Tollefson, confessed Cen
tral Point bank robbery hoaxer. The
atay of execution waa signed by Chief
Justice H. J. Bean of the supreme
court, and was telegraphed for aervlce
upon County Cleric Deli 11a Stevens
Meyer and Sheriff Ralph Q. Jennings.
Tollefson was sentenced to serve two
years In state prison, by Circuit Judge
H. D. Norton, on June 10. last, and ten
days extension of time was granted
before Issuance of commitment pa
pers. The period of grace expired
today.
The legal maneuvering la prelimin
ary to appealing to Oovernor Julius
L. Meier for a pardon or remission
of sentence. Under the Oregon law,
a period of 30 days must elapse be
tween the time of filing a clemency
plea and the date of filing with the
district attorney, of Intention to seek
executive clemency. The stay of
execution and writ of probable cause,
assures Tollefson liberty until the
governor mukea a final decision.
Notice of Intention to seek clem
ency waa filed with the district attor
ney yesterday by Tollefson through
his attorney, A. E. Reamea. Notice
of Intent to seek a writ of mandamus
directing Circuit Judge Norton to
Issue a writ of probable cause was
also filed, hut this la now void as
tho supreme court granted same to
day. Judge Norton yesterday refused
to grant a writ of probable cause.
Notice of appeal to the state supreme
court was alao filed yesterday.
The notice of plea for executive
clemency, Is based upon the following
grounds:
That no Indictment was returned,
or complaint filed; that Tollefson
perpetrated the ruse, with no Intent
to Injure or defraud; that the alleg
ed abstraction of the money from the
bank, constituted no felony and that
the facta as presented do not consti
tute a crime. It was also stressed
that no officer, stockholder, director,
or depositor In the bank had made
complaint, but Instead had signed
petitions seeking a parole.
It la also set forth, that Tollefson
has never before been In trouble, that
his recent court experiences have
been a lasting lesson, and that evi
dence will be presented to the gover
nor In due time supporting the plea
for clemency.
At the time of sentence, no recom
mendations were made by the dis
trict attorney, but Tollefson'a algned
confession waa presented to the
court. Tollefson 1" the statement ad
mitted that he defaulted, and re
ported a fake bank robbery to cover
up defalcations lost In gambling.
The last time a writ of probable
cause and atay of execution waa Is
sued for this county was on behalf
of James Klngaley, afterwards bang
ed for the murder of Sam O. Preacott,
Ashland policeman.
