RATTLE 10 KEEP
Since the meeting of truck and
mill men held at the Chamber of
Commerce last Wednesday night,
local operators have been engaged
In securing signers to petitions to
the state highway commission, urg
ing retention of present load limits
in this section of the state. In order,
they claim, that local lumber manu
facturing plants may continue to
operate during the remainder of
the summer.
George Brewer, president of the
Jackson-Josephine unit of the Ore
gon Mill and Truck Operators as
sociation, stated last night that the
response to the petitions by the
business men of Medford has been
most gratifying, over 500 signatures
to the petitions having been already
secured. Mr. Brewer urged that
everyone sign the petition, copies
of which are available at the Cham
ber of Commerce.
The date for the hearing before
the State Highway commission has
been set for Friday, July 1, at 1:30
p. m., according to word received
yesterday morning from F. C. Wal
ters, Eugene, president of the Oregon
Mill and Truck Operators associa
tion. It Is probable that local repre
sentation at this hearing will con
sist of Floyd Hart, George Brewer,
and possibly an additional repre
sentation by the local Chamber of
Commerce,
Other communities in southern
Oregon have been solicited by the
Medford ' amber to co-operate in
this movement to prevent the antici
pated closing of the local lumber
plants, and Grants Pass and Ash
land are also being canvassed with
the. petition to the highway com
mission. It has been pointed out by local
truck operators, particularly those
engaged In hauling logs to lumber
mills, that they are most desirous
of co-operating with the highway
commission in observing the load
and speed regulations, and are
anxious to do everything within
their power to see that highways
are not destroyed by overloaded
trucks. Their only plea is for a
"reasonable regulation which will
not only protect the highways from
breaking down, but which will per
mit the transportation of logs and
piling over the highway systems of
the state."

'Doc' Garman Private
Smith Routs Buddies in
Early Morning Hours
By Staff Sergeant Philip H. Louns
berry) CAMP CLATSOP, June 2ft Casual
ties at camp to date in Headquarters
company have been few. Private
Charles A. Rltter contracted a slight
ache in the region of his solar p lex
is. Private Robert B. Hurd intercept
ed some loose cold germs, and Pri
vate Warren A. Llgget must have
been doing some high stepping, as
the cords in one knee are slightly
out of place.
All the boys 'are in good spirits and
feel that the day for returning home
is approaching all too fast.
One of the high lights of fun for
the boys comes early each morning.
During the dally setting up exercises,
there is a certain co-ordination exer
cise which ' requires simultaneous
swinging of arms and legs In a side
movement from the body The sol
dier is obliged to Jump and throw
his legs about 18 Inches In each di
rection. One of the boys, Darold (Doc)
Garman, is stiff legged and his ef
forts to do this exercise cause shouts
of hilarious amusement from his
companions.
We now call the exercise the Ger
man special and It is looked forward
to each morning. "Doc" Is good na
tured about his failure to perform
this exercise and gets as big a kick
out of it as anyone.
Week-End Interests
The coming week end is filled with
events of Interest to visitors as well
as guardsmen. Friday there Is the
annual field meet In which the dif
ferent regiments vie with one another
for honors. There are some regular
track events but the main part is
the performing of regular training
duties In competition, such as tent
pitching, manual of arms, saddling
and running of horses, setting up of
field telephone sets and many oth
ers. Last year the meet was won by the
186th Infantry, of which this unit 'to
a part, by a very small margin. This
year rivalry Is Intense and visitors
will have ample opportunity to see
things soldiers do every day done In
rapid time.
Sham Battle Feature

not be less than 35.000. In this bat
tle the riflemen, machine gun crews,

from Medford to see this demonstra
tion. Headquarters Co. 3d Battalion
Invites all visiting Medford loiks tp
come to their quarters after the bat
tle and see for themselves Just how
the boys live.
Our company street Is near the
road leading into camp from the out

on one called Regimental Street. On
one aide of this street up a slight
hill Is the first tent of every com
pany. On the other aide of the street
are all the company kitchens. These

white with green composition roofs.
A blue and white sign is near the
first tent of each company telling
what unit It is and what city It is
from. Visitors should have little dif
ficulty in finding the location of this
company.
Friday night after dark there was
a big machine gun demonstration in
which tracer bullets flew thick and
fast. j

Grlgby Subdues Sabre
Persona who stood near the newly

Grlgsby the first few days did so at
their peril. Lt. Grlgsby's brand new

IN LOCAL REGION
John F. Da v lea of Spokane, re
gional director of the Federal Crop
Production Loan association of the
northwest district, was in Medford
Saturday, in company with Cleorg
Hilton, field Inspector. They were
looking over thla section of the
state and visiting some of the farms
on which loans wero made.
Mr. Dnvlcs says there was 75 mil
lion dollnrs lonned to 600,000 farmers
all over the United States by the
association, the average loan being
$140 and the maximum fixed by
law was 40C.
Mr. Davles says this assistance
in purchasing seed and f ert llizer
and other expenses, not Including
labor, for crop production, has en
abled hundreds of families to remain
on the farms and win produce crops
that otherwise would have been listed
with the unemployed and would have
been forced to move to the cities.
He also states that In the district
he represent the old Oregon terri
tory, comprising Oregon, Washing
ton, northern Idaho and weatern
Montana the amount borrowed by
the people of the district Is very
small in comparison to other sec
tions of the United States, thero
being $1,000,000 loaned to 6000
farmers.
A surprising statement of Mr.
Da vies', owing to the talk about
so much of the millions of dollars
loaned by the reconstruction flnano
corporation going to big business,
was "t0 per cent of all the money
loaned by the corporation has gone
into communities of less than 10,000
people."
