them have NOT come up to the ex
pectations of those who introduced
and supported them.
Anxious to Aid Farmer.
"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."

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.

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.
