KfCxE TWELVE ' MEDFORD TRTBUNTS, MEDFORD, OREGON. FRTDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1932. AUTO FEE SLASH 'E FOR 0 WORK Highway Association Meet ing Told Drastic Reduc tion Will Mean Problem for Regions Interested Report covering the activities ol the Oregon Pacific Highway assocla tton during the paet year, election or oiflcers for the organization, and pro ject to be considered during the coming year were the principal Items of business considered at the meeting of the association, held at the Hotel TJmpqus, In Roseburg yesterday, ac cording to a report made public today by W. 8. Bolger, president of the Medford chamber of commerce, who was the official representative from Bedford, A discussion of highway finances also occupied much of the attention of the representatives of cities along the Paclflo highway, which was brought forward by Joseph Shelton. manager of the Oregon State Motor association. Deep Cut Looms. Xt was Mr. Shelton's opinion that pressure will undoubtedly be brought upon the state legislature for drastic reduction In automobile license fees, and those Interested In the promo tion of good roads must take the lead In solving this problem, lest drsattc steps be taken which may perma nently cripple Oregon's highway con struction and maintenance programs. Mr. Shelton stated In his remsrks that it Is probable that the Oregon State Motor association may go on . record as favoring a 60 per cent re duction In motor license fees, with out Increasing the present gasoline tax, which, according to statistics pre sented, has already reached as high a point as can be efficiently collected. Re stated that a further Increase In the gas tax would bring In diminish ing returns, according to experience in other states where higher gas taxes have been tried. Want S-Year Program. Ths Pacific Highway association Kent on record as further reiterating Its request that the state highway commission establish a definite pro gram for highway expansion, covering at least five years, and that after this program has been approved and adopted, the program for new pro jects be closed tor thst period. St was believed thst this Is the only satisfactory way In which a definite, regular program can be made effec tive. A legislative committee to confer with the governor's committee on license fee revision, and to consider legislative matters affecting the Pa clflo highway, was appointed by d Bailey, president of the association. The new committee will be composed of Dr. Oerald Smith, Woodburn, chairman, Ed Tumbull, Eugene: A. O. Marstere, Roseburg. O. H. Demaray, Grants Psss and H. 8. Deuel, Medford. Commission Lauded. A resolution commending the ac tion of the state highway commis sion in starting construction work on the two projects recommended last year by the Paclflo Highway associa tion was passed unanimously at yes tsrday's meeting. These two projects Include ths reconstruction of the Portlsnd-Salem section of the high way and the Siskiyou project. O. H. Demaray, Grants Pass, a member of the special committee appointed at the Medford meeting, reported that the Siskiyou project was progressing satlsfsctorlly. His report was sup plemented by remarks by Mayor J. Edward Thornton of Ashland. A publicity program for ths Pacific highway was discussed, end left In the hands of a special committee ap pointed to consider the feasibility of publishing material tor releass through the various tourist agencies.

All you've hoped for in a Cough Drop medicated with ingredients of 1 WICKS V VapoRub Cuffs are widely varied, some models displaying deep fur trims ex tending from wrist to elbow, others showing simply a narrow band. Collars have taken on new forms. The old shawl design, so long In vogue, has been replaced in f Bullion's favor by high-cushton models which frame the face, broad scarfs tied in a trig bow on one side of the throat, high narrow collars extending their trimming down the side of the oat snd tiny pelerine capes which give a piquant ntr to the silhouette. The fur trims used on the upper part of fur coats are an outstanding note in the mode, Many models show entire bod toes or detachable boleros I made of galyak or broadtail while another category uses the same flat pelts to form yokes and upper sleeves. Felts of every variety are used for these new fur-decked coats. Foxes, thrust Into the background for the past several seasons, have come Into their own again, and silver, beige, brown and blue fox swirls luxuriously about the shoulders of. many after noon models. The flat pelts hold their popularity, however, since they are particularly adaptable to the new trims. Astrak han, Persian lamb, galyak, broadtail and beaver are used for scores of street coats, while sports models favor panther or leopard. White furs, such as ermine or broadtail, trim the most formal after noon coats. News has been received here of the death In Oakland, Cal., of Frank (Frltn) DiUler, formerly of thla city.
