July itUP) George N.

Prompt Action rromlsed The Industry Is to be given "the first opportunity" to establish prac ; :ee which would Insure greater ate j anility In prlcea, but If It falls, farm I administrators are prepared to take prompt action before the next cong ress beginning In January, j "I do not entertain the view that ; . the present grain trade has any di vin right to handle the farmers' products," Peek said. "The Institutions engsged In mar ! ketlng exist and will continue to ei- . 1st Just so long as they provide a use ful service. "If they do not perform auch serv ice then It will be necessary for farm- era to find some other method for marketing their product. Condition Can't Oo on ( . "This country cannot go on per- mlttlng farmera to be dispossessed of ' tnelr farms and homes through no fault of their own because of their inability to make the cost of pro duction. "My prediction la that unless the farmers of the country can be assured that they are going to get a aquare deal not two or three years hence i but now and befora congress res- f (ambles, then events will happen which will make what we already ttave seen look like a pleassnt dresm. j; "X .want to emphasize to every one w connected with the grain trades the f, necessity that you put your own house .! In order where it needa to be put In j order. j Get Chance To Act ' "We are not going to undertake to ajperlmpose something on the grain j1 tradsa until after they have had an opportunity to work out their prob- Seme themselves. "If this Is not done, promptly, bow ever, I will make no promises." Peek'e comments were made public ! In written form by the government after he had confronted the grain conference. "Abuses exist In the grain trades," tie averred emphatically, i "The trades, acting as the market ing medium for the farmer, should correct these. ; "If they do not succeed the gov ernment will act. We conceive It to 1 be the government's function to pro- ' iect any group which la unable o " protect Itself. . ! "I know of no Industry other than farming which has nothing to say a about the prlcea received for Its pro- ducts. Code for Millers Lauded i "I understand why thla la true but ,! do not understand why It should be j allowed to remain true. Perhaps I should be enlightened." t Peek then told the group that Sec- I retary Wallace has expressed pleas ure because some phases of the grain Industry, including milling, have tak en steps to establish a code of trade i practice and that administrators will ';' cooprate In efforts to work out codes lor other branchea Including the Brain exchangee. Soon after, the conference selected committees representing the exchang ee, terminal elevatora and country elevators to explore the possibilities oil code for each, with Instructions to present their plans at the confer ence late today.

FEDERAL SUPPORT GIVEN SEWER PROJECT For probably the first time In the history of Medford - voters will be asked on Frldsy, July 28, to author ize the lasuanco of bonds for a sew er system with both the backing of the notlonsl administration and the governor of the atate. It -waa pointed out by chamber of commerce offi cial today. With both Portland and Grants Pass having already voted on a simi lar proposition, expecting to obtain ft. F. C. funds for same. It la believed that citizens of Medford will fall In line and approve the 8100,000 bond Issue In order to give, the city an adequate and up-to-date aewage dis posal plan. Under the terma of the loan to be obtained from the federal government 830.000 of the total ex penditure will be an outright gift, with the remaining 870,000 to be paid over a period of 30 years at 4 per cent Interest. It is pointed out by officials of the city administration and the chamber of commerce that there may never come a time again when the money will be so easily available and It la hoped that voters will take advan tage of the situation existing. "The opportunity to obtain a aew age disposal plan now on auch eaay terms." stated Mr. Bolger, chamber president today, M!s one whicn ahould be taken every advantage of. The fact that 830,000 will be donated and that the remainder of the money can be borrowed ab 4 per cent makea the propoaltlon ao attractive that It would be a crime not to take advan tage of It." "The building of a aewage disposal plant In Medford will greatly assist the unemployment situation here and will be In keeping with the pro gram of President Roosevelt In put ting men back to work," further stated Mr. Bolger. The health angle must also not be forgotten and while one or two small suits have been brought against the city already, It Is barely possible that othera of larger pro portion may be Instituted In the fu ture unless 'something I done to rectify the situation, A partial survey made by the chamber of commerce would Indicate that the bond Issue will obtain prac tically 100 pec cent support. The chamber of oommerce, city council, newspapers, and many other organi sation In the city have gone on reo ord m favor of the sewer bonds and It la iioped that a big vote will turn out on Friday In order to gl the bonds aa overwhelming majority. Medford ha pledged Itself to sup port the unemployment program as outlined by Hugh 8. Johnson, sd mlnlstratdr of the national recovery admlntatratton and an affirmative vote next Friday on the sewer bonds will let him know that our promise was really meant and was not just a gesture. It Is the Intention of the chamber of commerce to advise President Roosevelt and Mr. Johnson regarding the sewer bond Issue Immediately after the final returns show that a majority favor the same. - Hit.
