Pl'GE ETGT1T MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 5, 1933. FEHL INSISTENT ' ON SERVICES OF 'AMOSWALKER County Judge Declares . Drinking by Young People Demands Appointment of Walker As Moral Guide To the Editor: - I noticed In your paper. Issue of July and, front page, heeding, "Fehl Reappoint Amu Walker as Proba tion Aide." Thl headline proclaim! the truth. . Mr. Walker was appointed proba tion officer by the undersigned eounty Judas of Jackson county in January, 1033. When I was accueed by my politi cal enemlea of having participated In the deatructlon of the ballot In the Bchermerhorn-Jennlnsa recount the two county commlaalonera were not content upon bringing ouater pro ceeding! against the sheriff of the county but they also aaeumed the duties, or attempted to, of my orrice of county Judge to the extent of vio lating the duties of their oftloea and the statutes of the atate of Oregon by demanding Mr. Walker'a resignation. Under section 33-634 of the Ore gon code H provides: "The probation officer ahall be appointed by the eounty Judge of the county and ahsll hold hie office during the plcaaure of the Judge." Not the two county commlalsoners. The order re-appolntlng Mr. Walk er to h la former position as proba tion officer waa prepared by the prosecuting attorney, waa signed by me and la filed with the county clerk and In no way doea aald order need the aanctlon of the two commlsslon trs. Neither la aald order subject to the review of the two commlaalonera or otherwise, .and permit me to aay: That while I am county Judge X In tend to be county Judge, I vas elect ed by the people and I am here to transact bualneaa In this capacity for the people and not to please the two eommtHslonera. My appointment of a probation of ficer waa In Una with the dutlea Incumbent upon my office aa county Judge, aa 1 find that It la utterly Impoaalble for me to adequately aerve the people of Jackeon county In aald oapactty of Judge of the Juvenile court without some help In the Juve nile department aa the complalnta are coming In almost hourly regarding auch mattera which must be attend ed to. Another aource of child delin quency, ta the presence today of the public dance hall, In which beer la aold. I find that In many of these road houses mere boys and girls are per mitted to not alone purchase beer but are seen publicly drinking hard llquora, which la brought to aald halls, on the hip, for consumption, and It II these caaea that must be checked up on at this time, which dutlea falls within the power of a probation officer, thus the re-ap. polntment of Mr, Walker at this time to bli former position. . The services of the probation offi cer will be paid for aa well as hla expenses, auch aa mileage for hla oar, the atatutea provldea for auch payment and I aa county Judge of Jackson county aasume full repon alblllty for any acta of my office aa Judge. If condltlona do not change in Jackson County It will be necessary to appoint one or more deputy pro batlon officers to check up on these condltlona aa drinking by children of liquor In public placea muat be atop- ped in Jackson county. I hare no crltlclam of the pro. prletora or the various dance halls and road houses, aa they are power less to enforce any lawa but a pro bation officer can and will enforce a reasonable morsl code upon the youths of the county who are found in these public placea.
