D. vroman. grower himself, yesterday Issued public statement urging local people to support borne Industries, and in sist upon home grown tomatoes which are far superior In flavor, qual ity and keeping qualities to the In terior tomatoes now being shipped in from California. "Unless the people of Medford and vicinity support local growers of to matoes this Industry can't be main tained." said Mr. Vrooman. "We ask for no special favors, merely that we be given a square deal. 'By Medford trade la Medford made.' Thla is the adopted slogan and should In our own self-interest be adhered to regarding all local pro ducts. "But we are not getting the pub lic support nor the support of the dealers, which we deserve. Some of the latter, for example, have admitted to me that they buy a few local to matoes, then mix them with a lot of Inferior tomatoes and claiming all the tomatoes are locally grown sell the lot at the local-rand higher price, This Is not fair dealing, to my mind. A new retail code has been established and speaking for myself think one provision of that code should be to prevent deceiving the consumer in this fashion. I person ally know where dealers not all of them, but some are paying 4 cents for California tomatoes, mixing them with local tomatoes and selling them all around 13 cents. I am doing what I can to see that the tomato growers, too, are given a tomato code." ilikiiiii n im mil iipr i i wmi i 1 i tm. ulul RiHneu tkho left Hollywood In the midst of work on a motion picture the waa making with Maurice Chevalier, consulted New York specialists aboui a throat ailment.

Many staunch Republicans were starting the ball rolling for Post master W. J. Warner, whose appoint ment expires in about a year, and who may be looking for a job by then U the plana of local Demo crats to place Attorney Frank De Sousa in the poatofflce are success ful. - Warner has kept himself com pletely out of the political- turmoil that has enveloped Jackson county, and would go Into the Job without an organized opposition H..H Democrats on Sidelines Democrats have hardly given the appointment a thought, except to wish a Democratic governor had been elected in Meler'a place. The olflce will be declared vacant automatically upon the sentencing of Junge Fehl, according to state statute, and not upon conviction alone, A mandate of the court Is nece-iwry to vacate the office. Fohl remains county Judge until he Is sentenced. The person appointed to succeed Judge Fehl will hold office until , the next regular election, It la un- derstoua. and not for the remainder of Feni's -regular term. Ralph Billings of Ashland, reg ularly elected county commissioner, and mentor member of the county court is being given wide support for the appointment to county Judge, especially from A&hland and the south end of the county, ff Bill ings were appointed, then Billing! and Commissioner Emmett Nealon would appoint a commissioner to take the place of Billings. Coinmlsuilonprs Silent Commissioners Billings and Nealon are taking absolutely no part in the selection of Judge Fehl's successor, they announced yesterday. "All we want Is someone we can work with," Billings said. "We could get along without a Judge for that matter. We have bo far." Nealon said they would be glad to assist Governor Meier In selecting a successor, but would make no rec ommendations unless they were asked for. Representative Day, from all that can be gathered, has the Inside track with Oovernor Meier, as he worked hand in-glove with Meier during the last meeting of the legislature, and went to bat for Merler in his sales tax campaign down here. Fear was expressed by Day supporters, how ever, that Meier would want Day back In the legislature, and. would therefore not appoint him county Judge. Van Hoevenherg Prominent VanHoevenberg worked with Meier during the height of L. A. Banks' campaign, was one of the leading members of the "Committee of 100,' and had several conference wlt,h Governor Meier before a special prosecutor was named to clean up the mess here. As It waa In the appointment of former County Judge C. B. Lampkln, though, Governor Meier may spring a surprise and appoint someone en tirely as, do from those the politic ians sre urging. Anywa, it has given the Repub lican politicians something to do be sides cnew their fingernails. ft a ft ' i f a V -V '.

OFFICIALS SCOFF AT LATEST REPORT OF MS T ly means Is that the world la embark ed on a naval race. It will be con ducted within treaty limits. But those limits are- effective only until 1036. Our officials already have heard confidentially that Japan intends to insist then on equality with Britain and us. She wants a 5-5-5 ratio In stead of 6-5-3. Britain Is not prepar ed to grant such an increase. Neither are we. That will be the big fight at the next naval conference. Japan la now only playing toward that end.

The real figures are kept by naval Intelligence n strictest confidence. It would NOT be advisable to print such figures, but you may rest sured that they do not Indicate we ar in danger. Figures will be announced to make It appear the new Japanese building program gives her an edge or equal ity with us. Actually It leaves her considerably behind. In addition there la the fact that our admitted superiority in capital ships would give ua a strong edge on them In a far eastern conflict. The Japanese know that. they bit off more than they can chew In Manchuria; They will be lucky If they do not wind up In bankruptcy within the next year or two. The reason you have heard little about the Japanese lately la that they have stopped thumbing their nose at us and turned to annoying the Brit ish. London officials mentioned It in private conversation with our econ omic delegates there recently. They seemed somewhat worried. The fact appears to be that the Japanese must hate someone. Their sad Internal condition requires their government to center public opinion on an external foe If they can find one. The new British tariffs in India afforded the current opportunity to hate the British. Recently returned vlsltora from Takyo say airplane fly over the olty dropping handbills: "Boycott British goods. Only a year ago they captured Shanghai because the Chinese were boycotting theirs. Inner signs suggest the senate in vestigators may have a change of heart on the Huey Long case before the New Orleans hearing October 16.
