lEPrORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1932.
A meeting of the Southern Oregon
& Northern California Mining Asso
ciation, Inc., will be held at 7:30
Friday night at the chamber oi com
merce.
All members or others Interested
In mining in thla vicinity, are urged
to attend. A number of things of
vital importance to the mining in
dustry are to be under discussion and
the meeting is open to everyone so
Interested.
Announcing the meeting, L. B,
Shurtleff this morning issued the
following statement in illustration of
what is going on In the mining in
dustry here:
"The mere statement, 'ten ounces
of gold,' doesn't sound so much, does
It? Forty years ago it was common
parlance. Today It doesn't mean
much to the moat of us, for we
haven't been made familiar with that
jort of language, but, when we stop
to figure that it means nearly two
hundred dollars, and are brought to
a realization of. the fact that some
one, by a little effort, has come Inco
possession of that much gold, In
these days we are just bound to stop
and consider.
"This story has Just been handed
In to the office of the Southern Ore
gon 3c Northern California Mining
Ass n. Inc., and Mr. Chauncey Florey
was designated as the proud possessor
of the ten ounces which he recovered
in a recent clean-up on hie property
on Evans creek. Thla was done with
a small mill and. an Inexpensive
equipment.
"All of this Is not so much of a
sensational story, but it tends to
point In a certain direction and con
forms the belief of the members of
this association that the way out
lies along the 'gold route'.'

Broadcast Schedule
I
No trace has been found of the air
plane sighted last Friday afternoon
In apparent distress, by three resi
dents of the Dead Indian people on
the George Jennings, the Walter
Hash and the William Lindsay ranches
saw a plane flying low over the tree
tops. Its motor was sputtering, they
reported the next day to the Ashland
city police. AH known planes In this
area were reported safe.
Airport officials and state police
now believe that the plane was a
private owned carrier off its course,
and the pilot flew low to get his
bearings, due to a low visibility, and
then proceeded. It might have been
a Reno, Nev plane, It was said.
Muriel Finley, a former Medford
girl, named by a group of American
artists several years ago, as one of
America's beautiful women, and
whose mother, Mrs. William Swartz,
still lives here, has filed suit for di
vorce from her husband, Edwin Cron
Jager, film cameraman, in the Los
Angeles courts. Cruelty is charged in
an action filed last Friday.
At one time the plaintiff was a

FAMILIES OF NEEDY
A happier Christmas for many
Medford families was made possible
through the efforts of the Salvation
Army this year In spite of limited
funds, report released yesterday re
vealed. There were 46 Christmas
baskets sent to needy families by
the Salvation Army and they were
made possible through the splendid
last minute co-operation of the pub
lic, Capt. I. H. Gallahue stated last
night. A pig, donated by Mike Han
ley, was divided among many tables
which would otherwise have gone
meatless.
Monday evening the cantata pre
sented by the Salvation Army was
attended by 600 guests and many
others were turned away because of
the limited capacity of the hall.
In extending .his sincere thanks to
the public yesterday, Captain Galla
due stated that he was in hopes
that much of the -fine spirit wit
nessed during the Christmas season
would continue since the work of the
Army must carry on.
The need for funds and supplies
win oe realized to a greater extent
later In the season.

UNIFICATION PLAN
PORTLAND, Dec. 28 (A P) A
lengthy program of business was
taken up by school teachers from an
parts of Oregon when about 2,500 In
structors opened the 33d annual
meeting of the Oregon State Teach
ers' association here today.
One of the most important matters
was the plan to reorganize some 3,000
school districts In the state into 100
districts with uniform and centraliz
ed management.
C. W. Boettlcher of The Dalles,
president of the association, said the
plan conforms with the times and
would result in greater efficiency. The
proposal will go before the delegates
as the report of the ' committee on
larger units of administration and
taxation. It will be submitted by H.
R. Goold, Eugene superintendent of
schools, and O. A. Howard, state sup
erintendent of public Instruction.
The presentation of the report of
the credentials committee opened the
annual session today.
F. E. Fagan, superintendent of Mc
Minnvllle schools, spoke, and E. F.
Carleton gave the report of the board
of trustees. Austin Landreth, Pendle
ton school superintendent, discussed
finances. Other business was to In
clude the report on resolutions, to be
presented by J. T. Longfellow, sup
erintendent of LaGrande schools,
chairman of the committee.
IN SCHOOL CASE
In a decision handed down late
yesterday by Circuit Judge H. D. Nor
ton, the Gold Hill school district is
awarded all Its contentions In a suit
filed by George A. Melslnger, ousted
teacher. The opinion holds that the
school district Is not bound by the
contract held by Melslnger and that
the same Is invalid and Melslnger Is
enjoined from interfering in any way
with the conduct of the school.
Costs of the legal maneuvers which
started last September are assessed to
Melslnger. An appeal to the state
supreme court looms.
TO BE
Figures compiled by the county
clerk's office today show that the
Jackson county tax mlllage for the
cominft year will be 14.2 milla, an
increase of .7 mills over last year,
w.hen it was 13.5 mills.
A state tax levy for aproxlmately
$87,000, ordered last week by the
state tax commission, caused a 3.6
mills increase over the budget as
prepared.
The mlllage is distributed among
the various funds as follows;
State .... 2.5
General H....H,.,.H. 2.7
Elementary schools ...... 1.7
County schools ...,. 2.7
High schools 3.0
County library J2
Emergency m a
Market roads .6
Following a .conference yesterday
afternoon, the county court ' decided
not to republish the budget, when
advised that such a course was not
required under Oregon law. A
The budget was compiled under
the Impression that no state tax
would be levied this year. . In the
event that a state sales tax Is passed,
which, now seems likely, the 987,000
will be refunded to the counties of
the state.
December 31 Is the final day for
turning over the budget to the as
sessor for extension on the tax rolls,

ATHENS, Dec. 38. (AP) Samuel
Insull, liberated yesterday after the
courts rejected & petition for his ex
tradition to America, returned to
day to his hotel from the hospital
where he was taken shortly after his
arrest several weeks ago.
"Thank God the truth has proved,"
he exclaimed to a correspondent as he
went to luncheon. He said he would
remain in Greece indefinitely, living
at the hotel, for the time being, until
Mrs. Insull can come down from Parts.
Further proceedings cannot be
taken in Greece against Insull on the
same charges on which a court ruled
yesterday he was unxtradl table, a
legal authority said today.
The decision was binding upon
Greek executive authorities, barring
them from further steps should they
be so Inclined, It was declared.
President Georgopoulos, of the
court of appeal, said today there has
been no attempt by executive powers
to influence the court. (It ruled Mr.
Insull could not be extradited to the
United States of the evidence which
was intended to show him guilty of
larceny and embezzlement in connec
tion with the collapse of his middle
west utilities enterprises.)
"Even had they tried to influence
us," the court president said, "Greek
Judges, you know, pay no attention to
anybody's pressure." .
CHICAGO, 111.. Dee. 38. (AP)
The fight to bring Samuel Insull,
Sr., back to we United States to
face his accusers Is to go on, but
there was a big question mark to
day as to the method of procedure.
This was indicated today by the
prosecution which accused the for
mer utilities czar of larceny and em
bezzlement on which the Greek court
of appeals at Athens refused to order
his extradition to the United States
on the ground depositions failed to
support the allegations.
