PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, APRIL 18, 1933. RECALL REPORTS CE IN RECENT New Legislation Requires Signatures Of 25 Per Cent Total Vote Cast At The - Last General Election. Two new law pawed by the last legislature, eiiectlve June 9. are of high Intereat to cltlreue of Jackson county. One la the tax moratorium law, and the other la the revlaed and strengthened Oregon recall law. The recall law wa revlaed to cor rect abuse practiced by "petition racketeera." and condition prevailing In this county laat year, were cited aa eblntng examples of the need of correction. The new law limit the circulation of recall to 00 daya, and prohlblta their being kept In "cold atorage" aa political cluba: require that the name ol all contrlbutore to the re call be filed with the county clerk, lone with the namea of the apon- aara.and circulator, and the circular tore must take an oath that they were present when the namea were elgned. More glrnera Required The new law requlrea that the algnaturea must comprlee 98 per cent of the vote cast t in isst election, which now meana that be twecn 3200 and 8500 algnaturea would be required. Last year following the verdict In the Parr-Fehl libel ault, and the sentencing of a young man to the state prison, after a number of pa roles, recall petitions were circulated against Circuit Judge H. D. Norton. No one would admit fatherhood of the move, though both Earl H. rem and li. A. Banks, a ft candidate and a newapaper publisher, publicly fa vored the recall. Petltlona were wide ly circulated, particularly In the north end of the county, and on the Applegate, but the required number of namea then 2600 waa never secured. Claim that 3200 namea were eecured were made, but It was learned that 800 namea waa the maximum, despite long and loud ap peal. None of the old signatures can' be used, under the new law. Fctil Rears Rumors For aome time there have been vague rumors, that a recall would be Initiated against County Judge Fehl. and laat week Peril In hla paper, said he had beard recall would be launched against a county commis sioner, the district attorney, and circuit Judge, and poMlbly a Justice of the peace. He also said he had heard a recall was talked against himself. It I assumed by county of ficial that Fehl will attempt to launch a recall against others, It one la launched against him. There ha aUo been aome talk of a recall against Suspended Sheriff Schermerhorn, the move centering chiefly among disgruntled democrat over Schermernorna appointments, when he assumed office. It later de veloped during the ouster hearing that the appointment bad been made at the Instigation of County Judie Fehl. In the north end of the county the past ten days, there ha been talk of a petition to protest against paying aalary to scnermer bom during the period of hla sus pension by the governor. The law allows pay during the period. Tax Moratorium Provided The tax moratorium law allows delinquent taxes for five yoara back to be paid, at the rate of ten per cent, at alx months periods, and was an emergency measure. It also pro vides that U a taxpayer misses three Installments, he lose hla right. The sheriff, district attorney and assessor will meet with the county court tomorrow to discuss and de cide upon a oouvse of action for thla county under the tax moratorium law. The delinquent tax list for 1937 I the only year concerned now. The list haa been prepared and published, and upstate counties are preparing to take action before June Otb, In order to collect before the tax moratorium law becomes effective. After that date the 1037 dellnquenclea will come tinder the moratorium. The 1037 dellnquenclea In this coun ty only amount to about 98000, and only a few are over $100. Most of the list are for aums ranging from as to $16. One of the most prosper ous year In the life of the county and nation waa 1037, aa were 1038 and 1030.
