Its Up to
THE Chamber of Commerce
work, in its effort to organize local growers of small fruits,
and thus stabilize their market.
Only by organization and consequent stabilization can red
ink be prevented, in the stone fruit industry in Southern
Oregon.
But the Chamber of Commerce can't do it ALL. It must
have the support and cooperation of the individual peach and
apricot growers. And each individual grower must be willing
to sacrifice SOMETHING for the good of the industry as a
whole.
X7 E can't have our cake and
" independence and market
LESS, and also expect to receive benefits of organization and
stabilization.
In such an organization there
there must be sufficient loyalty
secure UNANIMOUS SUPPORT
Unless the individual growers
the proposition is a failure before
TPHE situation is critical for the growers of small fruits. The
Chamber of Commerce has generously offered its services
to help them out of the emergency, and toward this end have
received the support of local retailers.
It's a question of the growers, as a unit getting behind the
chamber and receiving SOMETHING for their fruit or letting
inner dissensions and unwarranted suspicions, defeat their
course, and getting NOTHING.
. As usual in such matters, it is" up to the individuals chiefly
interested to decide. In our judgment they have everything to
gain and nothing to lose by giving this cooperative plan a thor
ough trial.
Roosevelt Is
117E have received a letter from Burton Palmer, secretary
of the state reconstruction advisory board, from which
we quote as follows:
I am inclosing a press release which I feel will explain the
position of the governor, and nla state advisory board, upon the
Importance of the various communities authorising by their
vote the expenditure of money under the Public Works Act.
The federal government has taken this method as the means
ot breaking the back of the depression, but in order for this
to be accomplished each community must assume its fair share ,
of the responsibility.
I know that when the people realise the Importance ot this
work, viewing It from the light of a return to prosperity Instead
of a mere voting of bonds for public Improvement, we shall find
a safe majority of the sound thinkers in every community
backing the president in his campaign.
The president has done well in his efforts towards our"
good, and this Is one way in which the citizens of the country
may express approval of hla methods.
The press release in question emphasizes the fact that the
government will reduce its appropriations for direct charity,
perhaps by 50 percent and leave it up to the various communi
ties to secure such relief, by voting bonds for needed publio
works. . ' .
The sewage disposal bonds to be voted on in Medford a week
from today come under this classification. The proposition has
been endorsed by the state, and President Roosevelt now urges
the voting of such bonds, for the purpose of reducing unemploy
ment, and breaking the back of the depression.
While the government approval has not been secured, that
it will be secured if the bonds are voted, is as certain as any
thing can be. It is scarcely conceivable that the government
would urge such action, and then when its advice had been fol:
lowed, would refuse to sanction it. 1
""PHIS means that if these bonds are voted, they will be taken
over by the government at a low interest charge, to run
20 or 30 years, and that in addition the government will make
Medford an outright cash gift of $30,000.
And this for a publio improvement that from every stand
point is sorely needed.
We are sure the more the people of Medford look into this
sewage disposal proposition, the more strongly they will favor
it. It will menn better community health for all time, and an
added payroll in Medford, during the season when payrolls are
most needed.
Equally important, it will mean Medford getting behind
President Roosevelt's reconstruction program, and doing its bit
to assist him in placing the country upon its financial feet again.
The Stock Market Crashes
'T'lIE stock market crashes on Wednesday and Thursday,
merely show that Wall Street as usual, had advance infor
mation on what was going to happen in Washington.
President Roosevelt's announcement of a nation-wide drive,
for shorter working hours and higher wages, for the purpose
of increasing the purchasing power of the American people, was
released after the stock exchange closed Thursday afternoon.
Such a program means ah end or at least a radical readjust
mentof the bull market that has been roaring along since
April. Tho cornerstone of this bull market was the determina
tion of industry, as a whole, to take advantage of low labor
costs, and rising prices, to lay aside a surplus of goods, and
make a killing later on.
In other words, the increase In all line of manufacturing,
was NOT due to increased demand, based upon increased buying
power; but upon the belief that prices were certain to inorease
later on. The obvious danger of such a program was overpro
duction, and sooner or later a major crash, that might haw
approached the disaster of 1929.
"THERE is no question whatever that the administration
keenly realized this. Nor is there much question, that the
president's announcement, was timed, to force a readjustment
NOW, instead of waiting until serious harm had been done.
As evidence kindly note General Johnson's comment! "The
Wall Street crash wasn't so unfortunate, after all." '
It wasn't from the standpoint of real financial health, and
permanent prosperity, although as usual it was from ths stand
point of the poor little lambs who were caught,
t e ' e e e
TT1IE entire situation merely demonstrates again, that this
Now Deal is no cam pniwu catch-word, or empty political
gesture it means just what it says a New Deal is what this

are willing to grant this, then
it starts.
Behind It
country is going to get, if President Roosevelt has his way
about it.
Wall Street's eyes were opened to that fact, when the news
trickled out from the White House Wednesday. That, rather
than any change in the fundamental business situation was
the reason for the Wednesday and Thursday crashes.

the "nervous."
Before you ean go further in this
course.- children, you must hsve a
fair conception of evolution, and you
can't get that from any critic.
The instinctive or natural reaction
to fear Is fight or flight. It is only
when or because either or both of
these natural reactions are restrained
or repressed that "nervousness" oc
curs. Actual combat or running away
Is always the best preventive of "ner
vousness" of any kind. Fortunately
there are various good substitutes for
fight or night, all physical, none
mental. Dismiss sll thought of "self
control" or "power to mask emo
tions" or "the ability to preserve
nonchalance or to keep bla temper
under extreme annoyance." Far bet

fare NOT to strive for such unnat

Athletics is the great auccedaneum
