irET)FOT?D UJLTL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1933.
PACE SEVEN
PROCESS TAX TO
Slays Army Officer
Farmers throughout the nation art
viewing with interest the levying of
the government wheat processing tax
w.hlch will go into eflect tomorrow.
July 8
The tax, amounting to 30 cents
on each bushel at wheat processed
by the miller or cereal manufacturer,
makes a probable Increase In flour
prices of approxlmatelr $-1.40 a bar-
frel. The money collected by this
tax will In turn be paid back to the
farmers in accordance with a plan
for acreage reduction.
Flour prices, which have already
risen almost 2 a barrel as a result
of the tremendous runup of wh"at
prices in the last two weeks, will
automatically take another advance
of 140 as a result of the tax. Local
grocers who have been advising flour
purchases In recent advertising have
reported but little response and as
a result local nouese wives win De
forced to pay 50 cents more for their I
next flour purchase. I
The tax bill which will be paid by
Med ford bakers has been estimated
between $50 and 900 dally or around
l&OO to 91800 per month. When
interviewed yesterday regarding the
tax one local baker replied: "The
speed with which the new tax has
een thrust on us and the little in
formation which has been given out
regarding the plan has not enabled
us to take up the matter as yet, but
undoubtedly there will be some ad
justment in bread prices within the
very aear future. The rise in flour
prices as a result of the wheat flurry
ihas been even more than the amount
of the .$1.40 tax. With the two In
creases, the pre-war nickel loaf which
has been revived in some sections
during the past year will aoon be a
thing of the past."
Cereal prices and breakfast foods
as well as other wheat products will
also undoubtedly feel the effect of
the new tax which Is - designed to
lift the farmer out of ttis unfortu
nate position he has found himself In
during the past two years.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 7. (UP)
H. L. Wollenberg. president of the
Longvlew Fibre company, today an
nounced a ten percent bonus for all
employes of the organization, effect
ive immediately.
that her husband had characterized
the ballot thefts as a "political mat
ter" 8he affirmed to the court and
counsel that she had "no set opin
ions,' and would be a "fair and im
partial Juror." Mrs. Richardson de
nied that she ,had been an officer
of tha "Good Government Congress,
Under questioning by the court,
Mrs. Richardson admitted she and
her husband had discussed the bal
lot thefts, after which she was ex
cused. Olfford Accepted
Thomas A. Glfford, a resident of
this city for 22 years and a clerk,
was the final regular Juror accepted.
Glfford said he had no opinions, had
heard the vote stealing discussed, but
taken no part In It, as a matter of
business policy, and had no fixed
views, and that the age of the de
fendant would not deter him in re
turning a verdict of guilty If the evi
dence warranted it.
The state w a 1 v d Its last
challenge and accepted the Jury. The
defense exhausted all Its peremptory
challenges late yesterday.
P. J. Llttlefleld. an orchard 1st of
the Phoenix district, was the first
alternate accepted. He has been a
resident here for two years and for
merly lived at San Jose, Cal. He
had heard something of the ballot
thefts and heard it discussed in a
general way, but had no opinions.
He said ,he had a "passing acquaint
ance" with Claude Ward, brother-in-law
of L. A. Banks, convicted slayer
and former local agitator. Llttlefleld
said he regarded the trial "as a crim
inal cose, and not a political fight."
Mrs. Jacobs Excused
Nellie Jacobs, called as an alter
nate, was excused by the court when
she said Jury duty would "Inconven
ience" her in the operation of u
auto camp. Ghester Fitch and Berthold
Barnum, orchardlsts of the Phoenix
district said they had opinions, and
had discussed the ballot thefts, and
were excused.
Mrs. M. J. Norrls of Phoenix was
dismissed when she said she had
views and believed In the editorial
policy of the Mail Tribune, "as
rule," in opposing lawlessness, agita
tion and county turmoil.
The defense questioning centered
upon what newspapers the prospect
ive Jurors had read: if they knew
Ralph a. Jennings, or his two sons;
if they had any prejudice against
the defendant, and If they belonged
to tha "Committee - of 7000," or the
Committee of 100, and how they
liked the present form of government.
The state queries dealt largely with
the personal views of the talesmen
and ability to give a fair and im
partial trial to both sides; if they
regarded the trial as a criminal case
or a political fight; if the age of
the defendant would affect their ver
dict; and if they would render a ver
dict in accordance with the evidence
and the law as rendered by the court,
McGregory Unawed
Allen MsGregory, a councilman of
Rogue River and a member of the
official family of Walter J. Jones,
mayor, found guilty of ballot theft,
was the twelfth Juror. McGregory
declared he would render a verdict in
accordance with the evidence: that
what Mayor Jones thought made no
difference; that "I am not afraid of
any verdict I might give"; that .he
had attended "two meetings of the
'Good Government Congress' out of
curiosity"; and that he had taken
no part In the events leading up to
the theft or the aftermath. He also
said: "I have squabbled with Jonea."
W. A. Ross of Gold Hill, an em
ploye of the cement plant, was ex
cused by the staee on Its fifth per
emptory. Roes was examined at
length relative to Ala views and ac
tivities, ere dismissal, which came
as the state had completed its ques
tioning. He had attended one meet
ing a "Grand assemly of the Con
gress" In the armory.
James A. Peyton, farmer. Prospect,
was excused when he Informed the
court farm work pressed, and J. J.
Mcnnls of the same area, operator of
the Log Cabin service station, was
dlsmussed because of the Illness of
his wife.
Mrs. Llndley Saw Duty
Mrs. Loretta A. Llndley of this city
was accepted as a Juror, and she
said ' it was a civic duty to serve as
a juror"; that she had no opinions,
end would give a fair and Impartial
trial.
Fred W. Nelson, orchard foreman
on the 1 11 thee orchard, formerly un
der the control of L. A. Banks, said
this would not affect his verdict;
that he had no fixed opinions: had
read and talked some about the vote
looting, and had attended none of
the "conclaves of the congress."

amined as an alternate, was excused
