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. Orr returned to the
United States, following the World
war.
The following note appears with the
photograph of the large transport:
'3. O. fl. At 13:30 a. m., New Year's
morning, 1010, the army transport

1800 were sick and wounded, were

HOW WE APPEAR IN
EYES OF OUTSIDERS
GOOD MEDICINE FROM BAD.
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.

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
