The true cause of the depression Le described u "greed," asking the youths going out into life's school to measure their success In something other than monetary gain. Dr. Ollbert also urged the class of 1933 to retain It sanity and become a thinking people, not acting upon impulse, but scrutinizing carefully all venture before they are entered for the development of a self con trol, needed badly throughout the world today. Cultivation of a true spirit of dem ocracy was also urged by the. com mencement speaker, who told the class members to look at things from the. standpoint of their. bearing upon the people a a whole and to work for things, whioh win promote tne com. mon good. Class legislation, which ha result ed from greed of the paat severa years, Dr. Ollbert cited as one of the nation's greatest evil. He condemned acceptance of any dictatorship, re (artless of the class from which it- may spring, telling graduates ana au. dtenoe that It 1 leaderahlp, not dlo tatorahlp, by the Intelligent and the fit, that the country is needing. .

The Medford high school, which has been olaased by Columbia university with th 10 beat In tuft cation, also won much praise from the university speaker. His wish he always been. Dr. G.l bert then told the graduates, to send the upper 10 per cent of every gradu ating class In the state of Oregon oa to college or university with expensss paid by the state. Oregon could maae no finer, no more profitable invest ment, he declared in closing. As official representative of the das of '38, Mlsa Frances Tucker, val edlotorian, expressed the class' ap preciation of the generosity of par ants and taxpayers, who made gradu ation posslbls. Stating that achool is not the boundary line of education, she promised that her class would en deavor to repay its debt in good eltl enshlp.

Plans for the operation of a large gold dredge on the old Jacksonville hill were announced yesterday by P, E. Lattner of Seattle, who, with a crew of men, has been prospecting the property since February to deter mine values of the ground. Aasocl taed with Mr. Lattner in the dredge project, are John XArson and Charles Huber, both well known residents of Portland. Present plans call for the opera ilea of the dredge by early January with the return of winter moisture and Is to have a capacity of 600 yards dally. A large amount of ground to be worked Is in sight and Is said to be In the region of an old channel, possibly flowing with water unknown years ago when the world was still In the making. This channel, Mr. Lattner believes, is the source of much of the wealth found when Jacksonville was a thriving mining town over 70 years ago. He states the channel cuts tthrough the land to be worked for some distance and Indications are that the use of a dredge will be warranted, as a result of very systematic prospecting. The property, acquired first from the government In 1883 by C. B. Hostel, deceased for several years, was fruit ful for gold panners during the early gom rusn. The equipment to be used on the hill will consist mainly of a dry land, dredge and will employ approximate ly in men. The dredge Itself will not float on water, but will move about on tracks. Mr. Lattner states further no stock Is being offered for sale In the projeot, being entirely privatejy financed, and was not defi nitely planned until the value of the ground wm determined. A small crew,, composed of Mr. Lattner, his son, Psul, Jr., and John Stombaugb, the latter a former Uni versity of Washington football star, la still working on the property. The men expect to leave the camp In a few days, returning next fall. JJnrller In the season a large crew waa kept busy and for a time worked day and night. Mr. Lattner la a mining man of long experience, having spent much of Jbls time In Montana, Oolarod and eastern Oregon. He la optimistic over mining possibilities In this re gion and looks forward to a greater development of the natural resources of Jackson county. His associate. Mr. Huber, Is well known along the entire coast as an outstanding bridge contractor, while the third member of the group, Mr. Larson, Is a mining man of long experience, particularly In Colorado.
