Why Taxes IT IS not only a patriotic duty, but a matter of self interest for all citizens of Jackson county who CAN pay their cur rent taxes, to PAY them. It is a patriotic duty because taxes represent a moral and legal obligation, which is imposed by every consideration of good citizenship. Unless taxes are paid, local government can not function, public schools can not be conducted, complete chaos and distintegration only can result. Taxes in short, form the cornerstone of all permanent and orderly government. It is a matter of self interest, because if the tax structure collapses, public business collapses, and nothing can prevent private business from following suit. rE property owner therefore, who can pay his taxes but doesn't pay them, is false to the first duty of good citizen ship, and acting contrary to his own self interest. There is every reasrjn to believe, that if all the citizens of Jackson county ABLE to pay their taxes, do pay them prompt ly, the present serious financial crisis which this community faces will be successfully surmounted. If this is not done, if what amounts to a general tax strike is followed out, then nothing can prevent a general and devastat ing disaster. TTHEEE is another point. The individual who figures he will selfishly benefit, by shirking his tax obligation, letting the county carry him, instead of his bank or doing the job himself, is grievously mistaken. ' In the end he will either lose his property, or have to pay not only his own delinquency total delinquency charge caused selfish and disloyal example. This will not amount to 8 percent, but may well mount to three or four times that amount. IN WAR the individual who mon cause, is branded as a the enemy is a traitor. Well, we are in the midst of a 'war now an economic war. The forces of destruction are at our gates. The citizen who oan pay his taxes, either by using his cash or his credit, and REFUSES; is essentially as much of a slacker and a traitor, as if this community were fighting a foreign enemy instead of an internal economic) foe. So the Mail Tribune urges taxes, to do so not only for the their own sake. It is the only and economio collapse can be avoided. Hearst no CONSISTENCY has been called If the converse is true, must have a very big mind indeed. ' For he is unquestionably one in the world. Not only does consistency mean nothing to him, but he seems to delight in being inconsistent. For example : Last Sunday in dolph spread his national tribute the front page,' from prayers poetio tributes to his greatness. In the SAME issue, both editorially and in Mr. Brisbane's speoial column, the Hearst papers opposed granting .any con cessions to Europe on war debts, any material trade allowances, rang all the changes on "America for Americans," and for good measure, lnmbasted dictatorship in the White House. In other words, asking America to fall on its knees before the greatest chief executive since Lincoln, Mr. Hearst at the same time ordered a big gun barrage laid down against two of the most important principles in THE president has demanded extraordinary powers, which TOhllft tint 31rtofvaliin f Antin i ab11. t 1. on- np .t.;M uv U.VLMbU.O.IlfJ LU..lllll,ailj' , lO bill, QUI Ul lUJUg Hearst rpposes. In the agricultural bill with its monetary amendment, he has been granted the greatest powers ever ac corded a chief excoutive in the history of thiB country. Apparently nothing definite was accomplished in the recent Washington conference, but there is no question whatever, that President Roosevelt favors both debt and trade concessions to Europe, and is unalterably opposed to the Hearst Blogan of "Europe must pay the war debts in full." When President Roosevelt sends his war debt message to congress, there is no doubt that the Hearst boys on the floor will oppose it, tooth and nail, and his hirelings in the gallery will "boo" it to the echo. DRAYERS for Roosevelt one day. Brickbats and pineapples for him the next. Such inconsistency might bother some public men. But not William Randolph Hearst. Unless all signs fail he will treat Roosevelt just as he treated Hoover, Wilson, T. R MoKinley, and unless we are mistaken, every recent president but Coolidge. Bouquets at the outset. Harpoons, bad eggs, and poison gas, a few months later. The only consistent thing about Hearst, la his unfailing inconsistency. Communicatio no IW Fehl Criticize County Relief. To the Editor: In the past I have refrained from making any comment upon the ad ministration of relief In Medford un der the so-called Jackson County Re lief committee, but the method em ployed by this committee seems to me, at this time, to be worthy of aome criticism.

Not disclosing the Identity of the per son or the number of the order, per mit me to say that there are many such orders. At this time, I would like to ask Mr. Jame Owen, chairman of thi famous Jackson County Relief com mittee, Just how in h any two people can live on 51.80 worth of provision for 15 days. And I also would lute to ask Mr. Owen try what "Must" Be Paid charge, but his proportion of the by those who have followed his refuses to do ha bit, in the com- slacker.

Address Dr. William Brady In car of THE SLEEP YOU GET IS - It has always seemed to me that the popular notion that backache, pain tn the back or a "weak back" algnlfle "kidney trouble" had It origin In the pic ture the old- time quacks and nostrum mongers constantly exhib ited to the pub lic, of victim bent forward, hand on flank, anxiously regis tering craving for a box of pill or a pair of kidney plaster or what ever the nostrum might be. The truth Is that Bright' disease (neph rltls) rarely causes any pain or dls comfort In the back. , In like manner the popular fear or insomnia 1 kept active. If not Inspired, by the Impressive pictures of wretched sufferer constantly ev hlblted to prospects by modern nos trum maker. In all of these pic tures the victim I plainly straining to keep awake so that he can worry about the loss of sleep. Now I like my sleep aa well a the next fellow. I know something about the physiology of sleep and Its value in maintaining one's health, effici ency, good spirits, and good look. If any. Too, I have a casual under standing of the effects of loss of sleep on the physical and mental well being. I believe I may require an average ration of eight hours sleep, but if circumstances prevent me from doing a reasonable amount of honest work, play, exercise, thon six hours or less la plenty. On the other hand, If I can put In severs! hours massaging the lawn or mess ing up the garden or mutilating a hedge or polishing the ear. then I can do with nine hour sleep. The belly breathing exerclae, for from six to a dozen Inflations, Is a great help for persons who find It difficult to relax and get to sleep night. Send a atamped envelope bearing your adress and ask for In structions, If you wish to try It. If you use any other name than Belly Breathing I'll send no instructions. The little lesson In physiology I hope to teach today la this, that peo ple who do hard physical work, labor, play, exercise, require more sleep than people who live by their wit. A a general rule we may say that the Project to Lure Tourists Means Much for Rogue Valley Recreation Area Jackson county and the Rogue River valley stand In line to profit greatly from the campaign of "popu larizing Oregon's recreational advan tages," recently Inaugurated by the Morning Oregonlan of Portund and the Oregon Motor association. It Is being pointed out, a Medford Is the center of perhaps the greatest recrea tional area In Oregon. working upon the knowledge that tourist travel and recreational advan tage constitute Oregon' third largest Industry, and that Income from lum bering and livestock, Oregon's two leading Industries, 1 more than 50 per cent below normal, Oregon's lead- qfelovrfstDotir-1932 es.Wufo Camps it fipaniiiciito Retail 'Storey women, tor Clotting, otons, Aoions & Sbmfenirs er have hit upon a program of ad vertising Oregon's outdoor life, with the belief that It will bring added Income to Oregon, and place Oregon aa the leading recreational state of the union. By a plan of co-operation between the Oregon Motor assocltlon and the Morning Oregonlan. every out standing tourist attraction In Oregon will be given a full pag. story, with fitting Illustrations. In the Sunday Oregonlan. In a aeries of 13 stories. Tbese full p&ge motor logs will be sent U over the nation, and will represent two. million page of adver tising for Oregon and Oregon's tourist attractions. Last Sunday Rogue River was the subject of one of the articles, where in the beauty, mystery and thrill of a boat trip on' Lower Rogue river were told. Crater lake win also be given a page, and the Oregon Caves will receive prominent mention. Per haps no other (Ingle section of the state will receive the prominence that southern Oregon will be given, local sportsmen pointed out. Residents of Oregon are asked to read all of the 13 articles, to gain concrete knowledge of the beautle of the state, and to send a copy of each week's article to some friend In the couth, east or mlddlewest.

M I mw .jtw The Mall Tribune., THE SLEEP YOU NEED aleep you get 1 the sleep you need, and If you don't need It, you should not worry when you don t get It. Parasite and people who earn their own living by their wits, are the least likely to suffer In health as a result of scanty deep rations, but they are the first to complain. Instead of complaining and crying for sympsthy for the dreadful afflic tion of "Insomnia" (which 1 spurious an ailment aa "dyspepsia" or "nervous exhaustion"), .these ghastly maniacs ought to spare their friends the tales of nocturnal vigils, and try what a bit of honest work will do for them, anything to occupy their self-centered minds and stir up a little oxidation In their lazy mus cles. Nothing better for the pur pose than a regular dally walk of five or six miles. The advantage of walking Is that It 1 excellent gen eral exercise and It la always avail able In sny climate, season or weath er. Its disadvantage Is that It cost more than many poor working people can afford, but this doe not con cern the parasite who most need It. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Kerosene Stove.

Wind, rain, dust or snow may be excluded by using wlndowscreen of plain unbleached muaUn, which does not materially lessen the daylight. The Dog Sleep In. How about child sleeping with healthy dog or cat? G. B. J. Answer Only objection Is that the child Is likely to be Infested with the Intestinal worms or parasites the ani mal happens to carry (the microscopic eggs being present in the animara saliva), and sometimes a child con tracts such skin disease as ringworm from cat or dog. In every household where a dog or cat Is kept, It Is essen tial that everybody who handles or net the animal take pains to wash the hands carefully Immediately afterward. (Copyright, John F.

In clearing the desk today I came upon some back - of - an - old - envelope jottings made at the an- m nuJ Dutcn Treat I d 1 n r a few If weeks ago. They . .... were for no pur I pose merely idle observations of artists and writers who dot' ted the various tables and are reproduced with slight editing: W. F.

Radio en trep re liners no longer look upon artist's fan mall or petltes an- nonces in the radio column as i criterion of success. Too many Jack ed up their quota by trickery or press agentry. The scope of the de- celt was discovered through a new artist who. due to a mechanical breakdown on his first broadcast, spieled through a dead mike. But the station received some 300 letters of praise. Stations now have secret research bureaus which find out performer's audience reaction In way unknown to him. Incidentally, a magazine editor tells of the difficulty In abandoning aeries dealing with the same characters, While he did not have In mind Mon tague Olass's Potash and Merlmutter or Fanny Kll bourne's Dot and Will, whose popularity are perelnnlal, they encompass the Idea. Lesser tech' ntclans may launch characters with a few stories and If dropped there is a genuine protest. So long as characters are fixed authors may write the weakest balderdash and readers remain loyal. Thus editors are. goody, goody, at the author's mercy. Three of the most popular charac ters in serialized fiction are Clar ence B tiding ton Holland's Scatter- good Balnes, Irvln Cobb's Judse Priest and Peter Kyne'a Cappy Ricks. Each made a fortune for the orig inator. All tried at various times to bury their heroes, but readers de mand resurrection. The tug was In their stamp of reality. Scattergood Balnes, Cappy Ricks and Judge Priest were aliases of men the authors knew Intimately. The fiction character with the greatest poplarity the past 30 years I could not abide. I refer to Fin ley Peter Dunne's "Mr. Dooley." My father used to laugh at his observa tions until his face surged apopletlc purple. I have known few beings save myself, who did not find him amusing. I can account for It only because of a distaste for dialect cou pled, of course, with a thick sense of humor. But I still think It high Inanity and am glad lt'a erstwhile. A figure in the Broadway flow Is Lou Davis, who when not attending his wholesale butchery business, writes words and music for senti mental ditties. He Is one of the piano lmprovlsora who can hold a silent circle knotted about until the final note. His best known tune, "That Precious Little Thing Called Love," made a sizable fortune. His boon companion Is Harry Rlchman. I notice Amelia Bingham's home on Riverside Is shorn of its crazy britle of heroic statuary. The facade was niched for marble figures of Shakespeare, Goethe. Farragut, Abra ham Lincoln and a bust of Napoleon. The mansion seems deserted and In growing decay. Further south the Charles M. Schwaibs' residence was also crepuscular with gloom, the Iron puddler statues In the yard sadly needing Whatever Iron puddler stat ues need to make them all merry and bright. I have perfected a dandy Jabber- wock for eavesdroppers who cup an ear to private conversation In cafes or elsewhere. Like this: "Alms do pe k a shannon sokup mabley carewe" and a few other names of Cincinnati stores. It sounds fearfully conti nental and certainly bellwders the nlbby.

(Associated Pre Photo) BOTH TO TESTIFY (Continued from Page One.) concentrated also on assuring Itself that the death of George F. Preecott, Medford constable, would not be given special significance by the jurors because he was an officer. The farmers on the Jury panel were also rigorously questioned In regard to their views on cooperative marketing projects, to which Banks Is vigorous ly opposed. The state contented Itself with questions as to the Juror's prejudices and the assurance that the state would be given a fair hearing as well as the defense. It was believed the opening statements would be made this afternoon. Mrs. Callison Excused Frances Callison, wife of Prince G. Callison, Oregon football coach, was excused from the jury panel when she said she had lived In Medford for several years and knew many of the people Involved. Both Banks and his wife will take the stand in their own defense later In the week, it was revealed here to day by W. H. Phlpps. Medford attor ney on the defense staff and a per sonal friend of the defendants. The courthouse was crowded again today as the second day of the trial started and several times Judge G. F. Skipworth had to rap for order as amusing replies from rural Jurors brought forth bursts of laughter.. EUGENE, Ore., May 2 (AP) With prospects of the Jury box being filled and at least a few of the many wit nesses taking the stand before the day Is over, the trial of Llewellyn A. Banks, former Medford editor and orchard 1st, and his wife, Edith R. Banks, on charges of first degree murder swung Into its second day today. The charges were brought against the two for the death of George Prescott, Medford constable, fatally shot when he attempted to serve a warrant on Banks at his Medford residence. The trial was moved here on request of the defense for a change of venue from Jackson coun ty. Charles A. Hardy, Eugene trial at torney who Is widely acquainted In Lane county, was retained by the de fense in a last-minute surprise move and almost entirely directed the de fense questioning of prospective Jurors. Banks, who came to Medford from Riverside, Calif., was the center of a political stor mthat engulfed Jackson county for months. He organized the good government congress" which demanded reslgnatlona of many county officers. Indicted In Ballot Theft Later he was among more than a score Indicted for the theft of bal lots from the county courthouse on the eve of a recount to determine the legality of the election of Sheriff Gordon Schermerhorn. whom Banks had supported. It was when Prescott attempted to serve the warrant tn this case that he waa slain. The defense indicated In Its ques tioning of jurors that It will at tempt to show Banks was "persecut ed to the point of desperatton, Banks Is Calm Aside from a reflective tapping of his fingers on the arm of his chair, Banks gave no outward evidence of nervousness as his trial got under way. Mrs. Banks smiled aasuMngly at him from time to time. Banks wore a light gray Norfolk suit. His wife wore a close-fitting black straw hat and a sealskin coat. Both watched Intently as the attor neys proceeded with examination of prospective jurors. Housewives, farmers, loggers and laborers were largely represented on the venire from which the Jury was being drawn. C. P. Builder Dies. OMAHA, May 3. ( AP ) Arthur P.

He says: "If we are ever to get back to nor mal conditions, the price level must be raised to the debt level or the debt level must be - lowered to the price level.
