ROSS CO., 3 J 8. Grape. L OF C. OF C. A. H. Banwell, newly appointed sec retary of the Medford chamber of commerce, was chief speaker tcday at the regular meeting of the Klwanls club at the Hotel Medford. nie tenta tive program outlined for the year. emphasizing as main objectives agri cultural progress and tourist travel promotion, waa presented by secre tary Banwell. The business of a chamber of com merce Is constructive action' he de clared. "It Is organized for service and for accomplishment and the char acter of it business and Its value to the membership and to the comma nlty la determined not merely by the fact that It is doing something, but by what It Is doing and bow It Is doing It, "Obviously, what the chamber or commerce shall do In a community depends, for one thing, upon what needs to be done. Therefore any sug gest ions that you may have in mind will provide food for thought In for mulating a plan of work," Mr. Ban well further stated. "Might I ssy first of all, that un less the organization Is free from debt and Is placed on a 'cash and carry' basis. Its effectiveness Is greatly hampered. "The chamber of commerce Is made up of "business leaders who have become leaders through practical ef ficiency. Efficiency naturally gov erns all activities, especially finances. and successful organizations can al ways point to good business manage ment and a bank balance." Turning to the financial angle, Mr. Banwell stated: "The predominant motives which prompt financial sup port to a chamber of commerce call for definite and tangible results, therefore, any plan of work must be 'sold' and the members who purchase It must have sufficient faith In the organization to put up their money first. Membership la Important In any organization set-up. It la extremely difficult to function unless the fi nances are In good shape and a na tional survey made last year shows that 85 per cent of the organizations which went out of business, waa en tirely due to poor financial condi tions." Mr. Banwell emphasized In closing. B. H. Hedrlck. superintendent of schools, was program chairman today and Introduced the speaker. In connection with an article en titled "A Ticket to Blighty," In the March Issue of the American Legion Monthly, a plotpre of the army trans port Northern Pacific la shown, on which Albert E.

Good medicine la sometimes very bad to the taste. It may be the de struction of Jackson county ballot boxes will turn out to be tbe evil taste of good medicine for that county's ailing condition. We do not mean to in sinuate that the patient would not recover without this particular prescrip tion. Jackson county has too many level-headed and public-spirited citizens (o permit such a condition to become chronic. But the ballot-burning may speed the cure. It was unthinkable that Sheriff Schermerhorn should make the Investi gation for he Is the one who wins by the destruction of tbe ballots, ills election was contented by former Sheriff Jennings, write-In candidate, at tne November election. Election returns gave the post to Bcherraerhorn by 123 votes, but Jennings claimed to have been elected by not less than 07 votes and demanded a recount. The recount was to have been started Tuesday. But Tuesday morning ballot boxes containing about 10,000 votes were missing from the courthouse vault. Recount could not be made when the ballots were gone, so the action was dismissed. Later In the day, charred remains of the box frames and ballots were found In the courthouse furnace. But the vault 1 1 ad apparently been entered by breaking an "unbreakable" glass window ana the vault doors bad not been tampered with. There would seem to be a. curious Inconsistency tn these circumstances. Bchermerhorn Is reputed to belong to the Banks-County Judge Febl clique and the ballot theft Is a symptom of the ailment from which Jack son county has been suffering for the past two years. The hope for Jarkson county's early recovery lies In the probability tnat the state police will get to the bottom of the ballot scandal. The situation undoubtedly needs a thorough X-raylng followed by a few major operations. (Eugene News). Members of the so-called Good Government congress of Jackson county are suspected of having stolen the ballots In an election contest down there. That's why it has such a ht-ftlutin' name. We never knew a professional reformer yet who wasn't crooked and we have been watching their antics for a good many years. (CorvalJ Is Gazette Times). weekly. Reverend Bennett referred to as having "sown the wind, the spirit of unrest and turmoil throughout the county. It has been going on for several years, he told his congrega tion, and now the results are being realized and the entire county must suffer. Many compliments for the sermon were heard in the church and on the streets, following the service. The only unfavorable crltclsm stated that the sermon had come Just two years too late. Undergoes Operation Mrs. D. W. Pence of this city underwent a major operation at the Community hospital Monday and was reported getting along nicely later In the day.

Because the apples had been selred by the United States authorities. Banks refused to pay the farmer, and tried to place the blame for the poor wanhlnf? onto the FRUITGROWER. WHO HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WASHING AND PACKING. In trying to avoid the payment of his honest debt, Banks made the fol lowing claim, which la quoted from his sworn statement filed in court: That by reason of the lead arsenate spray In and upon said fruit, the same would not pass government inspection, and was unfavorable and caused the de fendant to lose all the frolght and Icing charges expended In shipping the same, and a sum greatly In excess of the value of said fruit in defending the same against the government libel." This case is known as case No. 2139-L. and can be inspected In the office of our county clerk at any time by anyone. Refused to pay. When the claim of this farmer was placed In my hands,, I took it up with Banks and tried to get htm to pay It Without a lawsuit. HE REFUSED TO PAY. AND SAID IN EFFECT. "START COURT ACTION IF YOU WANT TO." A court action was filed and tried In our circuit court, and Banks lost the case. He was still determined not to pay the bill, so he appealed the case to the supreme court. It Is re ported In volume 130, supreme court records, at page 012. Banks lost the case In supreme court after months of litigation.. The farmer, of course, was put to a lot of expense for costs and attorney's fees, besides having to wait months for his money, and this particular farmer needed, the money badly. It will be remembered that Banks has bragged many times about paying for seized fruit, even when he was not obliged to, and be has posed aa a great benefactor to the fruit indus try in this valley. Maybe he Is. In any event, here Is one reason why Banks dislikes the district attorney, AND IT IS A MATIER OF PUBUO RECORD IN COURT.
