From otber sources it waa learned that Thomas A. LeBreton, Argentina's representative, and Stanley M. Bruce, Australia's delegate, had been pre sented at the negotiations only by proxy. It waa said, however, that they were likely to agree to the scheme published by Mr. Morgenthau. Alfred 8. V. Carpenter, chairman of the Jackson county relief committee, today expressed great concern over the source of money to be used In relief work here during the coming montha. There are. at the present time, he pointed out, 730 families tn Jackson county on the committee's rolls, and altbougb a considerable amount of work haa been available, there has not been enough to take care of all the needy, Mr. Carpenter said. Most of those on the 1UU now are old and physically Infirm, and be cause what they saved In their work ing life hu been lost through un fortunate investments or spent for necessities during these hard times, It appears tbat many of them will be on the rolls Indefinitely. Yesterday Mr. Carpenter telegraphed the atate .relief committee concerning the relief funds available In Oregon and the following communications were exchanged: Raymond B. Wilcox, Chairman, Oregon State Relief Committee, 1213 Spalding Bldg., Portland. Does the continuance of relief work depend on passage of sales tax. Please telegraph reply. JACKSON CO.

Lack of state and county funds for re lief purposes may reduce federal accordingly. ELMER R. GOUDT, State Relief Committee. O. W. Reynolds, field representative of the state relief committee, was in Medford this morning, conferring with Mr. Csrpenter. snd told of the federal relief plan which will give the state 33 for each 1 put Into relief work. Under this plan. It waa pointed out by Mr. Carpenter, with the passage of the state sales tax. the 3250.000 set aside under those apportionments for relief, will make It possible to receive 3750.00O from the federal government, allowing an approximate million dollars for such work in ore- son. Mr. Carpenter stated that since the first of June the relief work through out the nation has been a matter of federal planning, with an attempt being made at the present time to pass the relief work back to the states so far as .possible. It the state willing to appropriate money for re lief, the national government la win ing to co-operate In furnishing funds The relief officials eald today they did not know where any relief money would be available for work after Sep- tember. If the sales tax does not pass Sor no other provision la msde In the state for funds, and It la not probable federal aid will be available without atate money. , Mr. Reynolds said today that the July. August and September appro priation by the federal government will not possibly last past the mia die of August. To those who love laughter more than tears, but are strangers to nei ther: to tbose who prefer a lilting melody sandwiched between the bread and butter of life: to those wbo have bit of Irish blood In their veins, as weU as those (try and find them) wbo haven't, the old stage favorite Peg o' My Heart," now playing at Hunt s Craterlan. will have it great an appeal.

' Marion Davlea, however, la not Lau retta Taylor, nor, let It be said to her undying credit, does she try to oe. But she is Peg, with a little more emphasle, perhaps, on the tomboy qualities, than will be remembered of the original interpretation. Then there Is the brand new learn ing man, Onslow Stevens, who should bring back some of the good old-fash ioned romance the depression (or something) baa knocked out of mod em drama. He's handsomer man Oable and well, girls, Just give him a chance. The undlsputable highlight of In dividual performances la J. Farrell McDonald's, who Is one grand oia character actor. Others there are, who make this show worth while. In cluding the young lad, whose sweet tenor voice first sends the strains oi the theme song on It's haunting way through your consciousness, but they are all detail tn the artistic whole, that la better seen than described.

BERRT CUTS. So per 100. Barr, sin 6s w. B&rueil. (Continues Rom Pate One) Monday, Fehl'e counsel filed a mo tion for a change of venue, and It waa denied by the court with the comment that the Walker episode was also published tn all the papers of the state. In a prominent position The court also remarked that be doubted the effect of news articles and edltorlala as attested by the few tnllsmen In the ballot theft cases who have said they were Influenced by the same. The Walker episode Is also made one of the .grounds for a new trial plea filed yesterday In the Scher merhorn case. The court In denying the venue change plea made Monday, cited the Brumfleld case; wherein the supreme court of the state had held that newspaper artlclea were not grounds for granting a change of venue. The Brumfleld case concerned a Roseburg dentist, charged with mur dering a hermit by the name of Dennis Russell, and substituting the hermit's body for his own. in an attempt to perpetrate an Insurance hoax. The Douglas county papers bitterly assailed the accused man. Fehl an Offender The court denied Fehl'a first mo tion for a change of venue, when the state showed that Fehl In his own weekly paper, had published articles "aa bitter, If not more so." than those published In hla conmpor arles. The defense, with Its first motion submitted copies of articles publish ed In the Mall Tribune, Ashland Tid ings, and other Jackson county pa pers, covering the 1033 prlmsry and general election campaigns, the 1 A. Banks murder, and other incidents and observations upon the local alt- uatlon. The defense Lao expressed the hope In open court, that Judge Skip worth hear the trial In Klamath county. The court cald he would advise Chief Justice Rand of the state aupreme court of hla action, and that the chief Justice would make the assignment. All the de fense counsel favored the continua tion of Judge Sktpworth. Sklpnorth Moy Prrnlde The court Informed the counsel for both sides, that It had no desire to hear the base, but inasmuch "aa I have stsrted. I might as well finish It." The court also said: "Don't snybody get the Idea I am looking for a Job. I'm two montha behind with my work at home, and would like to take the train tonight for home." Assistant Attorney General Moody held that the state desired only to keep the record free from errors. The defense contended tTiat the artlclea publlcehed In the Moll Trl- bune and other Jackson county pub llcatlona on the Amos W. Walker contempt charges, were prejudicial to Fern, although the press only report er we racta aa admitted by both cIHa- In - , . Walker, on the wltnesa stand for 1 JLyulA d. r lnKnam S tne oeiense in the Schermerhorn I trial, admitted that at the Instigation of County Judge Fehl, he had Inter viewed the wife of George B. Mc clain, a Juror, after Mcclain had been sworn aa a Juror. McClaln was dismissed from the Jury by the court, upon an affidavit filed by the de fense. The newspaper articles gave Walk er's admission, and printed an offlc-' lal copy of the court's comment. In directing the district attorney'a of fice to Investigate the matter, for the filing of contempt citations. should also be considered the fact that the water of Bear creek, below Medford la used for Irrigation, for stock watering, and that publlo water supplies are taken from the Rogue river Into which Bear creek dis charges about 10 miles below Med ford. The dlschsrge ot sewage Into water aubject to these uses Is, not only undesirable, but a likely danger to the public health. "The problem in Medford also re lates to the capacity of some of the existing sewers. The present River side trunk sewer Is considerably over loaded at times so that sewage bub bles out of manholes and xlowa along ine atreet. The Jackson street sewer, where It crosses Bear creek and also for several blocks to the east, la also overloaded and haa been found to be difficult to maintain. Relief of these ewers la. desirable. "The major objectlvee of a sewage disposal project In Medford are thus (a) the removal of sewage pollution from Bear creek, (bN the relief of present Inadequate and overloaded sewers, and (c) the elimination of septic tanks and septlo tank over flow close to built-up sections of the city. The present disposal of sewage in Medford la unsatisfactory, there fore, and ahould be corrected." The atate board of health of which Dr. Frederick Strieker Is state health officer, haa ordered that Medford build a aewaga disposal plant because the city ot Medford la subject to fur tner damage suits It the present pol lutlon In Bear creek continues. Al leady the city haa been aued and waa compelled to pay approximately inoueano dollars, A similar situation existed In La Qrande, Oregon, some years ago, and as the result of a typhoid epidemic, wnicn cost the city over six thousand dollars, the voters authorised bonds to the extent ot 105,000 to build a plsnt which has been In successful operation ever alnce.' A almllar con dition existed In Baker. Oregon, and witnin tne past year the eltlzene In that communty voted $104,000 for a plant. By virtue of the fact that MedforJ will seek R. F. O. funds to the extent of 100.000, of which SO percent la an outright donation, there ahould be no difficulty In receiving an over whelming vote on July 38th If only to preveut further damage sulta be ing brought against the city.
