P3TGB E.I&HT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1932. FREE MEALS AT Manv Call for Wholesome Food As Hunger Gnaws 800 Served Since Nov. 7 Opening Thank Donors Last night, with the registration of the last of three women and 13 men for the evening meal, the relief kitchen sponsored by the Medford lions elub bad served 600 meala since the day of opening, November 7. Invited by C. B. Stuart, of the Lloni club, who dlrecta this project, located In a wing of the old Meth odist church building at Fourth and Bartleet, a part of which la rented by the Salvation Army, a reporter vial ted the kitchen and Incidentally sampled the food served yesterday. A tasty and wholesome dish In which were mutton, onions, potatoes, carrots, cauliflower, aweet potatoes and turnips, waa served In a large bowl. With this la served bread (without butter), coffee with milk and sugar If desired. All one can eat la given at each meal, but only two meala are served to any one tran sient unless he has a ticket which he has earned or which someone haa given him. The Lions club sells books of tick et wblcb may be exchanged for work, or which entitle the purchaser to the amount of work Indicated by his tickets. The Individual meal coupon represents 10 cents. At least 15 minutes work la re quired from those not .having tickets. Six. cords ot wood donated to the kitchen provided work for many. Mr. and Mrs. E. M. McKeen donate all their time and receive only living quarters and a part of their meals for their work. The fine type of men who are fed and their courtesy and willingness to help In every way was pointed out to the reporter. A former shoe merohant from San Francisco and ' his. eon came to t,he kitchen Mon day, cold, wet, hungry and broke. A man and hla wife, the latter 111, were cared for Tuesday among the 44 served. No couch or resting place waa available -for tha sick woman at the kitchen, but after waiting for some time arrangements were made to care for them overnight. Farenta with obviously undernour ished, children who were fed at the kitchen brought forth the remark by one of the eight men present: "Its bsd enough for us felVws without families, but those starving kids are going to suffer all the rest of their lives because right now during these two or three years of their growth, they haven't food or shelter for right growth." A Medford woman, without work, Is being fed dally. Her embarrass ment la distressing to the onlooker, but hunger forces her to seek this id. Mr. Stuart pointed out to the re porter tho gVeat need for a place to cars for emergency cases such as this almost desperate woman who haa neither food nor room; also the need for a place for caring for the sick and possible Isolation of patients. Lack of funds prevents further ex pansion of the club's charitable en terprise, which so far has been car ried on through assistance .of vari ous persons graifeully acknowledged by Mr. Stuart and the Lions club, chief of which waa tho benefit at the Holly theater on election night, a gift of 435 and the following: Shed donated by Economy Lumber Co Porter Lumber Co., Woods Lum ber Co., Big Pines Lumber Co., Lam port's, Labor by Ed Foy and brother.

It Is ex pected that first publication of the document will be tomorrow, so that the public hearing thereon can be called before Christmas. The law re quires that the public hearing be held not less than 30 days after the first publication. yesterday afternoon the budget committee beard the Chamber of Commerce committee, which urged that "all the levies be cut to the minimum, whereever possible." The committee was composed of W. H. Core, H. S. Deuel, Hamilton pstton, George Iverson, O. C. Boggs and others. As the budget now standa, the levy for general road fund Is practically eliminated, with a market road fund of $21,850 and an emergency fund of 98000. The general county fund has been placed at $169,395.30. Last year the same fund waa $200,073.35. The levy for the schools, however, Is still high, as It Is barricaded with mandatory state laws, In many In stances approved both by the legis lature and the vote of the people. The fund for county schools Is placed at $102,575.80; for high schools $51,800, and for elementary schools $80,000. Funds for the maintenance of roads and bridges was cut yesterday from $25,000 to $20,000. The bridge Item was held vital. The county obligated for the maintenance of brldgea over Irrigation ditches, be sides the bridges on roads through out the county. Tho budget com mittee took the position that keep ing the bridges In tip-top shape was practical because, should one crumble beneath an auto the county would face a suit for damagea tbat might cost more In a court Judgment than the saving. For road Improvements, $10,000 was listed, In eluding the extension of North Court street, to Join with North Central avenue, for a direct route Into the city, leaving North Riverside ave nue to tourist travel and reduce the trafflo congestion. This Item would cost about $3000. The balance was for the Improvement oi roads, chiefly on the east side of the valley, used for hauling of fruit, and outlets for large orchards. The county court said the Court street project preliminaries had been completed, and that Its furtherance was necessary to safeguard monies already expended. As far as possible, all expenditure of money for road work will be used to provide employment. The treasurer was Instructed by the budget commute to prepare a state ment, showing the amounts In the various Interest bond funds for 1933, with trie object of reducing the levy for this purpose.
