It's a time for cool heads, and the sort of restraint, tempered
by absolute determination to secure prompt and certain justice,

Two, not One
TTJE HASTEN to make a correction: '
In our congratulations to 0. S. C. for winning the coast
basketball title we opined it was the first championship for
Oregon since "betV dee wah'
We had in mind the university's football title after which
they tangled with Harvard at the Rose Bowl.
It seems that the University of Oregon won the coast basket
ball title in 1919, Not only that, but our own Eddie (Dr.)
Durno was a member of that team; and Carter Brandon, anoth
er Medford. boy. was a first-string sub.
The University of California was the chiefcontcndcr then,
and the boys from Eugene ran circles around the bojg from
Berkeley.
So the editorial "Homer" nodded a trifle. This does not
detract from the triumph of 0. S. CI, to which "Red" McDonald
of this city contributed so expertly, but while bouquets are
being passed around, the U. of 0. basketball tossers of 14 years
ago. should be included.
"We trust this makes the record clear. Instend of one coast
title in athletics since the war, the number should be two.
Let the Record Show
JUDGE FKIIL demands, that the oounty journal show he op
posed the order signed by a mnjority of the county court,
abolishing the office of probation officer, held by Amos Walker.
An exoellent idea, We trust the journal will not only show
it but the PEOPLE WILL REMEMBER IT,
Judge Fehl was elooted on a campaign of strict economy,
of relieving the tax payers, of eliminating whnt he called waste
and graft in oounty administration.
Yet immediately after he took office, he revived the anti
quated position of probation officer, and placed Walker in
chargo, on a monthly salary.
Just what the probation officer did, to earn his salary, or
what he was expected to do, no one seems to know Perhaps
an audit of the county records will bring this to light. Wo
hope so.
The appointment was so obviously a political one, and tho
increased expense to the tax payers, under present conditions,
so plainly unnecessary that the last grand jury recommended
that the sineoure be abolished, and probation work be taken
over by the members of the county court as before.
Yet when a majority of the county court follows out this
reoommendation Judge Fehl protests and insists the records
show his protest.
We are sure that will be perfectly satisfactory to the people,
if it is to Judge Fehl.
Simply Incredible
"THOSE whom the Gods would destroy they first make mad."
It is simply incredible, -that any group of people on the
surface of this globe, so nearly destroyed by the last war, should
be even contemplating another war.
Tet for days all prest dispatches from Europe, hae agreed,
that another war threatens.
The main trouble seems to proceed from Germany under
Ilitler and Italy under Mussolini. A military alliance between
these two Fascist dictators is reported, and an outbreftk in the
Tolish corridor is feared.
VTe still believe that reason and enlightened self interest
will prevail. For if it doesn't nothing is more certain than this:
Another war will do to all Europe what the world war did
to Russia destroy everything that is known as civilization and
orderly government, and throw the human race serosa the sea,
buck into the tooth aud claw struggle of the jungle.

this condition

who have seen many eases and stud

Th dearness develops first at the

affected than men. The history of
othf cases of progressive deafness
Jn tv.e family la noted In nearly half
of the cases. Tinnitus (head noises)
and somo dizziness or vertigo la com

There is no Inflammation, of the

eral consensus of otologists who have
had much experience with the con

there Is even greater urgency to re

If th examination reveals evidence
of a septic focus, than there would

the greatest promise of benefit from
treatment lies in efforts to Improve
the general hygiene, the patient's
ways of life, the habits, and In pro

nutrition.
Vitamin A is especially Important
for persons with otosclerosis. It Is
well worth while for any such suf
ferer to take a ration of cod liver oil
for a season, to see whether it will
not do good In one way or another

improve the hearing, or relieve the
distress from tinnitus or giddiness.

We, the undersigned,'-Joined the
Good Government Congress In good
faith, being told that It stod for law
and order, upholding the constitu
tion of the country and this state,
and he principles upon which this
country was founded.
Being convinced that these princi
ples were not only NOT adhered to
but were repeatedly violated we re
cently came to tha conclusion that
the congress was a dangerous organl
ztalon 'under Its active leadership,
and we decided to resign at once.
We visited officials of the organisa
tion and tried to get back our mem
bership cards but were told the cards
were not In their possession and
could not be obtained.
Being unable to get out this way.
we now wish to use your columns for

all weather or air phobia and take

They should bear closely In , mind
that their deafness or ear trouble Is
unlike the Inflammatory troubles due
to infections, and hence they cannot
be guided by the notions of such
persons about exposure to cold or
wet. Any and all weathers or sea

otosclerosis victim needs;
I have just a hunch, perhaps noth

otosclerosis,, and Z believe It will do
no one any harm In any case send

taking the lodln Ration.

money which could be legitimately
spent In this campaign would pass
Into the regular channels of trade
by the purchase of those things so
necessary to bring about the results
which such a campaign would create.
"The spending of this money will
have a tendency to alleviate the un
employment situation and many per
sons can be provided with gainful
occupation.
'There can be no doubt that now li
the time to buy. Everything points
to the fact that commodity prices
are on the up-grade, and It will cost
far more later on to make the Im
provements needed than at the pres
ent time. If everyone would realize
this and know that prices are going
up, and would start spending money
on these Improvements now, It would
have a wonderful effect on all busi
ness In Medford, and would also cre
ate the confidence which will carry
our city to far greater accomplish
ments "It has been noltced lately that
property Is beginning to change
hands more freely and there can be
no doubt but what sales will be more
pronounced within a short time.
Property In god condition, and build
ings nicely painted naturally are more
apepallng to the prospective pur-
chaisr than those which are In a
dilapidated and rundown condition.
This also holds true with rental,
and property can be more quick iy
rented when a place desired is clean
and neat. A coat of paint some
times makes a lot of difference.
"The Chamber of Commerce this
year intends to go after the tourUt
business in a mutant manner and
visitors to our city during the sum
mer months will be far more Im
pressed with Medford if everything
looki spick and span, both In tho
business as well aj the residential
districts. It must be . remembered
also that many of these visitors are
not only vacationing, but are looking
for new locations, new opportunities
and new fields of endeavor. We hope
that we shall be abl to Induce many
of them to locate In Medford and if
the cleanup and paintup campaign
Is a success, our work with the tour
ists at the chamber In selling Med
ford as a desirable place in which to
live, will be made all the easier.
"I think our committee could well
afford to also Include in Its pro
gram the idea that now Is the time
to build and do all kinds of repair
work. As has been jald before, prices
are as low as they probably will be,
and no better time could be found
to make Investments in new struc
tures and repair old ones. We do
not expect foolish or extravagant
spending, but a sane expenditure for
m-ceasary Improvements.
"We want the cooperation of every
one to make our oduipalitn the most
successful ever attempted in south
ern Oregon, and the following results
will bo brought about:
1. Additional employment will be
founrt. ,
3. Business and trade will be stim
ulated.' 3. Public confidence In Medford
wlU be encouraged.
4. Idle and hoarded dollars will
flow into business channels.
5. Property will rent and sell
quicker.
8. Visitors to olty will be greatly
Impressed.
7. Cleanliness will be promote J,
creating happier citizenship.

SIGN FOR CJ.T.C.
VANCOUVER BARRACKS, Wash
Mar. 16. (Special) Indicating an
other capacity attendance, more than
600 applications were already on file
here this week for the 1933 citizens'
military training camp to be held at
this post beginning June 33, It was
announced today, and among them
are 18 from Jackson county. An en
rollment campaign now Is under way.
The camp, which will run for four
weeks, Is free to able-bodied young
men between the ages of 17 and 24,
who are recommended by their pas
tors, sohool teachers, city or county
officials, or reserve, national guard
or regular army officers in their
communities. Applicants may com
municate directly with C. M. T. C
headquarters at Vancouver Barraks,
or with enrollment committee mem
bers In their counties.
Prompt action on the part of any
prospective applicants in county who
haw not yet sought admission 'was
advised today, for the response has
been hearty over the camp area as
a whole so far, and late applicants
may get caught In the rush at the
end of the enrollment period. The
quota la 800 as In 1932, but due to
the fact that a few counties each
year send In far more applications
than their quotas permit, and also
due to the fact that score of appli
cants annually fall to qualify for
various reasons, there Is still room
for candidates even though some 600
requests are on file. Last year more
than 1300 applications were received

ROOSEVELT'S USE
OF BIG STICK IS
HIT BY STEIWER
PORTLAND, March 16, (AP) A
sharp denunciation of the adminis
tration economy bill by Senator Fred
Stetwer .(Rep.) of Oregon was de
scribed In a Washington, D. C. dis
patch to the Journal here today. The
dispatch said Senator Steiwer late
Tuesday expressed fear of a dictator's
power and urged senators to "forget
our servile servitude to the White
House."
The Journal dispatch said: "He
attacked It (the economy bill) as
unwise, unnecessary, unfair and
probably unconstitutional. With
considerable heat he declared that
congress Is not impotent, but could
balance the budget in other ways. He
mentioned the beer bill, which he
said Is 'about to b crowded thru
here and suggested a sales tax."
The special article said Senator
Steiwer expressed belief congress It
self should cut veterans' allowances,
"but not more In proportion than
the salary rolls." -
The dispatch- continued "state
menta that congress Is Impotent to
deal with budget balancing he
termed little less than slanderous.
Congress, he said, could find a way
that would not be 'offensive' and
would not injure either the govern
ment or the veterans."
