"While this problem has NOT been and should NOT be partisan, yet the republican party wishes to solve It and is anxious to bring the farmer Into a situation of equality with In dustry. "One of the problems Is to reduce the spread between what the pro ducer on the farm receives and what the ultimate consumer pays for such products. Another is to provide the farmers better marketing facilities. "While I have for years believed a national co-operative system would help solve the problem and I still be lieve auch a system, properly organ ized and conducted, would enable the farmer to get a better price for his products and at the same time do NO Injury to those who deal hon estly In the buying and selling of farm products, while protecting the farmer against those who will NOT give him a square deal." Wrong Idea on R. F. C. As to the reconstruction finance loans, adding: "While It Is true that corporation, he said, there Is "quite a wrong impression" regarding its It has helped some of the . larger banks, yet of the 3,600 banks and trust companies assisted by it, 70 per cent of the relief has gone to banks and trust companies In cities of less than 5,000 population, 78 per cent in those of less than 10,000, and 8b per cent In those of less than 25.000 popula tion." Mr. Curtis went on record as be ing opposed personally to compila tion of the foreign war debts. Re ferring to the tariff, h said appli cation of "the principles of the American system of protection 1 necessary In order to keep out of our country goods which come Into competition with our home-made goods and home-grown products." . The two great problems which must be solved, he said, were to secure employment for the unemployed and to make a market for th products of the farm and factory. "In these trying times of world wide economic disturbances," he said, "republican tariffs and immigration restrictions account largely for Amer ican wages being more than In any other country. Not only are our wages higher than In any other land but American standards of living are far higher, hours of labor shorter and working conditions better than In any other nation." Would Write Bureaus The vice president proposed "systematic Investigation and reor ganization of governmental agencies with a view of eliminating duplica tions and of uniting bureaus where union Is possible without Impairing the efficiency of the departments. He expressed gratification wfth the "Important part" women have taken In management - and control of the country's affairs. Reviewing the "distinct gains" mad. toward "realization of labor's laud able alms," he said "the five day week should and will come." Mr. Curtis quoted figures In sup port of his contention the present administration had taken active stops to put hoarded and Idle money In circulation, to show that since the "crash" In October, 1929, the per capita circulation, then $40.23, de creased to 136.30 one year later, and increased to C45.50 as of June 30, 1932. "No president In peace times ever had so many difficult problems to solve, no president ever worked hard er to Improve conditions, and none ever took the people into his con fidence as haa the careful organizer. the great student of the needs of our people Herbert Hoover." E 10 BE RETURNED County authorities continued o day to take step to balk any efforts of transient Indigents to establish a residence here and share In the relief work and food being marshalled for the assistance of worthy residents of the city and county. Six months' residence in the county makes any one a legal resident. Migrations of transient Indigents from Klamath and other eastern Ore gon counties has started, and two or three families traveling In autos have been returned. Corespondence has been carried on with other county courts relative to "keeping them there." A check-up Is being made on families who spend the summer in Klamath county and return here for the milder winters, and secure ftid from both counties. A check la also being made on the local labor cards, to determine if there are any Illegal holders of the cards. A smallpox patient, held by the county health department, who was stricken the third day after his arrival from Idaho, was found to possess a local labor card. He has friends here and was seeking work In the fruit. Caring for home people Is a drain on the indigent fund of the county, and the county court is showing an inclination to "get nurd -boiled with transient indigents," and give them short shrift. Two or three have been offered "a dollars worth of grub and gallon of gas" to return from whence they came. The county court also suspects that some who make appeals to the county have money "but are trying to 'mooch' all they can get.' County Commissioner Victor Bur- sell favors the adoption of the Line county policy, of "sawing a cord of wood before eating." His Informa tion Indicates that this has caused a heavy decline in appeals of tran sients for aid. ERSON'S S TALL AT TOLO John Anderson grows fine corn.

Or or v ueaners Announce a Policy of On CLEANING and PRESSING (EFFECTIVE THURSDAY, AUGUST 1 8th) What the Cleaning Industry Means to Medford! The Cleaning Industry Is deserving of an important place among the activities of the Rogue River Valley ... In Medford, alone, in excess of $200,000 are invested in cleaning plants and equipment to properly serve the people of this city and vicinity. 30 people are regularly employed in the 5 plants and 8 cleaning establishments in Medford with a payroll totaling many thousands of dollars annually. Uniform prices, equally fair to the publio and cleaners, are necessary for the very life of this important Medford industry. These prices, consistent with high quality work and excellent service, will end price competition that is harmful to business activities of this city and tends to destroy publio confidence. Following is a partial list of the new uniform price policy as adopted by Medford Dry Cleaners. You will note a two-price schedule enabling you to save about 20 by using the cash-and-carry method.
