A group of 78 Shrlners from various southern Oregon communities assembled in the basement banquet room of the Hotel Medford today to listen to Mr. Jen kins' Intensely Interesting address. "In my opinion, neither the estab lishment of the Farm Board nor the Reconstruction Finance corporation accomplished the desired results in bringing about a return of normal conditions and the essential return of public confidence. Sweeping changes in banking must be effected to bring hoarded wealth again into circulation," Mr. Jenkins said. The common belief that the present economic depression Is more severe than those of the past was disproved by Mr. Jenkins, who devoted a por tion of his address to a brief sketch of panics and depressions of the past century. Periods of rapid expansion and wild speculation have Invariably resulted In sconomlo reactions, every I one of which teaches the American I people new lessons, he said. The American people are, by nature,, plungers and their Industrial expan sion and extensive speculation dur ing the peak years of 138 and 139 have naturally resulted in the pres ent economic conditions, according to Frank Jenkins, who explained that a remedy would be the slow but Inevitable balanoe of production prices with the markets of raw ma terials. "There Is no such thing as over production," Mr. Jenkins emphasized. "There will be an unlimited market for everything that can be produced If we can create a condition when the farmer and working man can receive a profit for his products in balance with other industries." Past depressions have left us wiser and it Is a certainty that we shall profit by the present economic situation and build upon this added knowledge a new and more substantial prosperity for the future." The regular meeting of Hlllah tem ple at the AshlanO Masonic hall oc curs tonight, an! Albert K. Cass, newly eicctd potentate, will preside.
