CONCERT PLEASES
FEATURE AT HIGH
Compelled by th compositions ot
Verdi, Chopin, Brahma And other
masters of the most universal of the
arts, to think better thought, to
plan better deeds, to live life more
nearly to the full citizens of south
ern Oregon left the high school audi
torium Wednesday evening at the
close of the community concert, ar
ranged as an annual event In cele
bration of National Music week, all
wearing reconditioned smiles. In stor
age during the past several months.
A brighter moon, enhanced by the
strains of music, still lingering In
their minds, greeted the delegations
from Ashland, Med ford and adjoining
communities as they traveled home
ward. Fathers, mothers and children, mu
sic lovers of all ranks, crowded the
auditorium for the concert, provided
by southern Oregon musicians as a
contribution to music week.
No admission charges were col
lected. People entertained, people
listened all for the love of music.
The little symphony orchestra of
Ashland, under the direction of Ward
Croft, opened and closed the program.
And the organization, which Mr. Croit
has developed through his own Inspi
ration and constant work Into a
thing of beauty, was very enthusi
astically received.
The boys chorus, under direction
of Mrs. Minnie Guy, also aroused fine
appreciation through tone quality and
style.
The Jackson County Teachera' cho
rus, which has been welcomed In
several appearances during the past
few weeks, sang again Wednesday
night. In the absence of Miss Har
riet Baldwin, director, the singers
were guided by Mrs. Effie Herbert
Yeoman, chairman for Medford of
last night's program. She was as
sisted as general chairman of the
musical affair by Mrs. E. A. Woods of
Ashland. 8olo parts were ' by Mrs.
Teoman and Miss Imogene Wallace.
Other participants In the evening's
concert were Miss Helen Kllgore. John
H. Fuller. Mrs. George Andrews, the
Ashland orchestra, the boys chorus
and the teachers' chorus.

(Continued from Page One.)
The administration has gone liter
ary with a bang.
Mrs. Roosevelt was the first to inau
gurate weekly articles sold to news
papers through the syndicates, sx
Prof. Rex Tugwell Joined the move
ment next with syndicated weekly
pieces on economics. The biggest treat
was saved for the last. Ex-Prof. Ray
mond Moley will shortly release a
weekly dissertation on some subject or
other. They are asking 25 an article
for It from the largest newspapers.
Republicans used to write their
propaganda for nothing.
Much ado will be made about busi
ness figures for May, June and July,
Earnings statements and other sta
tistics are always casually compared
with the previous year. It ao happens
that business was on the toboggan
during these three montha last year.
No matter how bad the figures may
be this year, they will therefore show
an Improvement.
The Russian recognition question
Is being pushed quietly to the rear.
A good practical excuse has been
found. Administration experts will
buzz In your ear that they fear the
way the Roosevelt reciprocal tariff ar
rangement would work with recogni
tion. We are one of the few coun
tries having a favorable trade balance
with Russia. Under our embargo plan
it Is 10 to 1 in our favor.
England, France and Italy all im
port more from Russia than they send
there. Germany has a favorable bal
ance of about 4 to 1.
The truth Is that times are not
propitious for Russian recognition. All
the Red troubles with English engi
neers have had an effect here. Patri
otic societies have been aroused.
When the proper time comes you
will hear less about this trade excuse.
It will then be said that opening the
Russian market to greater expansion
Is what we need.
Miss Lillian Roberts of the local
Red Cross office today received a bul
letin from the Seattle Travelers' aid
office, requesting that the Medford
unit assist in locating Jimmy Mo
Braun, son of U. C. Customs Guard
J. B. MoBraun, who disappeared on
hla way to Ills home In Des Moines,
near Seattle, 01 March 33, following
a game of field hockey played at
Rainier playfteld, Seattle.
The 15-year-old boy Is described as
being small, and appears younger.
He is dark, with brown eyes, dark
brown hair slightly curly, rosy cheeks,
good teeth, and an unusually at
tractive smile. Jimmy Is four feet,
11 Inches tall, weighs about 98 pounds
and wss last seen wearing blue over
alls, no hat, a plaid blazer and a light
shirt.
Anyone having seen the boy la ask

BACCALAUREATE SET
BOY SCOUTS FACE
If
USUAL HIP
Interest In boy cl roles of Jackson
county this week is becoming crys-
tallzed In summer camp lans. ana
leaders of Boy scoutdom are sort of
"on the spot." There U little be
yond desire for summer camp to en
able Its opening. Larry Sen tie. acting
scout executive for the district, ad
mitted yesterday, and unless financial
aid is gained from clubs, institutions
or some public-spirited individuals,
there won't be any camp this year.
It will be Impossible for Crater
Lake council to open -camp under
Its present financial condition, Mr
Sen ad e stated yesterday, and the nec
essary indebtedness for such a ven
ture must not be incurred.
If a camp is not opened for Boy
Scouts, the Girl Scouts, too, will be
without a place to go. as the camp
on the Applegate has been discon
tinued because of mining activities.
Among other sctlvltles claiming the
interest of Boy Scout this week are
plans for observance of Mother's day,
when many Boy Scouts will be going
to church or appearing in programs
dedicated to "every boy s first sweet
heart."
Next Monday night court of honor
will be conducted at the courthouse
and all scouts will be present.
A letter, commending Crater Lake
council for carrying on activities )n
spite of no funds to hire an execu
tive, was received yesterday from
John H. Piper, regional scout executive.
Sunday afternon at 2:30, at Hell-
man baths, Ashland, there will be
someone to pass any scout wishing
to take the test In swimming, Mr.
Schade announced yesterday, Invit
ing the scouts to enjoy an afternoon
of swimming.

More Blow, for Defene.
Further heavy blowa were-dealt to
the defenae In the direct teattmony of
Captain Lee M. Bown. In charge 01
the atate police for the southern Ore
gon district. Captain Bown told of
how Banks had aald to him. In a
conversation In the Josephine county
Jail, on the evening of March 18. In
the presence of Phil Lowd. deputy
sheriff and former political protege
of Banka:
" 'I hear the newsboy calling 'Banks
Kllla Prescott.' That la not ao. At
the proper time I will prove who fired
the ahot. Please remember that X say
when THE ahot waa fired, not when
I fired a shot. A third man fired
the shot and ran from the house."
It has been the supposition that
one of the theorlea of the defenae
would be that "a mysterious third
man" killed Constable Prescott. Its
revealment from the lips of a state
witness, was a aurprtse.
Captain Bown testified further that
Banks told him: "In my home you
will find a suitcase packed for a trip,
I waa going to the Oyger mine on
Forrest creek for few days, and
would not have been at home when
Prescott came. If I had not been de
layed."
Had Premonition.
Banka. the official testified, told
him that "he had a premonition'
aomethlng waa going to happen, and
sent Janet away." It developed that
"Janet" was Mrs. Janet Clementa
Ouches, Banks' secretary.
The defendant also told Captain
Bown that he had been advised by
telephone that Indictments had been
returned in the ballot theft cases and

Bartered On Surrender.
A few momenta later I received
another phone call, from woman
who said she was Mrs. Banks. She
said 'Mr. Banks desires to surrender
to either Sheriff Schermerhorn. or
Deputy Lowd.'
I told her Sheriff Schermerhorn
was not In town, and that the where
abouts of Deputy Lowd were not
known.
After a few moments' silence the
the woman's voice said:
1 "Mr. Banks will surrender to you
personally, if given assurances he will
be held In the Jackson county Jail."
I told her no such agreement could
be made, and that If Mr. Banks did
not surrender steps would be taken to
clear the house, and apprehend him
She then said he would surrender.
"Deputy Phil Lowd arrived at this
time, and he asked where I waa going
I told him to get In the auto and 1
would tell him." the wltnem said.
Testimony then showed that Deputy
Lowd went to the Banks porch first,
and assisted the deputy coroner in
removing the body of Constable Pres
cott. When Captain Bown arrived.
Lowd called his attention to two let
ters laying on a door mat. Captain
sown picked them up and entered
the house.
Ware Golf Pants.
Banks, the witness said, was stand
ing In the living room, with hat and
overcoat on. and wearing golf trou
sers. They shook hands. Deputy Lowd
was nearby, and asked Banks 'have
you a gun In your pocket." and Banks
replied: "No. If I had one I might
be tempted to use It."
Banks then said: "That man (point
ing to the porch) tried to enter my
house, and force his way by Mra.
Banks, and I shot."
As Banks, Lowd and Captain Bown
were leaving the house. Banks said
to bis wife: "I'm going to be all
right, dear." The officer promised
Mrs. Banka she would be advised
where her husband was held, and at
that time she did not anticipate ar
rest herself.
Captain Bown corroborated Deputy
Lowd's testimony of the trip to
Grants Pass, and statements made
by Banks. In which he admitted
shooting Prescott "the same as any
other burglar," and declaration of
Banks he would "probably have shot
any officer who came to the door."
Captain Bown also corroborated
Lowd's testimony relative to the six
gsrae rifle cartridges given to htm,
with the words: "I guess I wont
have any further use for these," the
single shot fired, and why Sherlft
Schermerhorn had not been detailed
to serve the warrant for ballot steal
ing. .
Banks Calm On Klde.
Captain Bown also testified that
Bsnks "was cool and collected and
very calm" and manifested pride in
the vicious power of his rifle, and
discussed different brands of cigar
ettes. and said: "I always smoke Old
Golds and use a holder, aa It gives
me a cool smoke. I clean out the
holder every morning."
The state police official said, in
response to a request, he assured the
prisoner he would have a clean cell
by himself.
The cross-examination by Defense
Attorney Loner gan waa mild and
lasted less than an hour.

All-Bran provides "bulk" to ex

to help muscle tone. Also iron for
the blood.
The "bulk" in All-Bran is ranch
like that of lettuce. Inside the body,
it forms a soft mass. Gently, it
clears out the intestinal wastes.

medicines. Two tablespoonfuls daily
are usually sufficient. With each
