TO (Continued from raj! One) district has been suggest as one of th members. Mr. Burch, a man of wide experience in both business and official circles. Is an orchard tst. trite McNalr Again. W. H. McNalr of Ashland, who serv ed on the board last year, Is urged aa an appointee again. Another mentioned as selection is Bd M. White of this elty, who Is well acquainted with property condi tions here and in the county gen erally. Farm Interests will be well repre sented, as all the county court mem bers are practical working farmers, with stock. Among the problems to be worked out is the deficit occasioned by the county commissary and legal coats en. tailed in suppressing the Fehl-Banka lawlessness, securing of funds for op eration of county government and providing relief for the worthy poor of established residence and stability as citizens. Old Age Pension Problem. Another Issue will be the old age pension, pasaed by the last legisla ture snd scheduled to go Into effect next January. Its estimated cost In Jackson county for 1934 Is $75,000 It Is a heavy drain, and moat of the counties of the state have appealed to the governor for a modification of the drastic clauses. All the count ties of the state are In the same or wor&e financial shape than Jackson county, and have takensteps to urge changing the law to meet the present low tax receipts. School operation receipts form another master prob lem. Several upstate counties have launched, plans for payments of taxes on the Installment plan and for the collection of delinquent taxes, from those able to pay but dilatory. In crease of the Interest penalty has been recommended, and will be con sldered at the proposed special ses sion of the legislature. Outgo Checked. During th month of August, re lief expenses were reduced by County Judge Day approximately one-half. Naming of a committee of public- spirited taxpayers In all districts of the county, to advise all "squatters' that they would have to hustle for themselves this winter, and that county aid would be sparse, if at all, were mailed today. In some districts the committee is already at work. Reports have been received of fam ilies who have been away all sum mer, returning to their lsst winter cabins within the past two weeks, and they will be notified of the new policy at once. By abolishing relief expenditures to the "professional poor," the county court holds the expense will be reduced and more aid be available for the deserving. IS LEFT IN HANDS OF (Continued from Page One) a tralnload of troops and students to Camaguey province, where Captain Juan Blaa Hernandez, known as the "Cuban Sandlno," has taken to the field. Captain Bias conducted a long guerrilla warfare against deposed President Oererdo Machado. Recently he apent aeveral weeks In Havana conferring with General Carlos Men diet a, one of the principal leaders of the opposition to the present govern ment. The Insurgent captain, who got his nickname because of the similarity of his antl-Machado campaign to that waged for years by General Augustlno Sandlno In Nicaragua, left for the In terior yesterday and immediately took up arms. There were mutterlngs In opposi tionists' camps' of revolution as Presi dent Grau San Martin persisted in his refusal to accede to demands of five powerful political groups that he make way for a "national" govern ment. "I will quit," he countered, "when anybody who has a right to ask me to resign does so." He made the statement at the con clusion of a meeting with a commit tee of Rotarians who, aa mediators, gave him separate memoranda from the OCRR and ABC political societies. Col. Carlos Mend leu's nationalists, former President Menocal's group, and the Marlanlstas of Miguel Mariano Gomes. "It doesn't matter who Is presi dent," Dr. Grau San Martin asserted, "so long as the revolutionary program Is carried out." A leader of the student pro-government faction Interrupted him to say that "Grau San Martin can not re algn unless we (the student directo rate) who put him In the presidency, ask him to."

H. Hedrlck. Tots! for this year amounts to 3457, In comparison with 3316 for the last term, he stated. Due to the Increase, and the fewer number of Instructors In the school faculties, a crowded condition Is re ported by school authorities. For the elementary grades, 1307 children are listed for this year, with last year's total as 1149. There are 663 children In the Junior high school for this term, in comparison with 610 for 1033-33.

The contract, he said. contains a provision, however, that If the tuition money due la not turned over to the Medford district by Octo ber 1, the contract la null and void. The tax receipts, enough to pay the back amount demanded by the Medford system, have been submitted to the Medford school board for ap proval, according to Mr. Hedrlck, and County School Superintendent C. A. Bowman has Joined with the Dewey board in guaranteeing that the money, when it has gone through the proper channels, will be turned over to the Medford district. Mr. Hedrlck said that the tax money has been turned over to the county, but under the procedure, will be returned to the Dewey district. It will then be necessary for the Dewey board to pay the money to the local district. f 1 JACKSON, Mich., Sept. 19. (P) A 60-hour search for Harold L.

WE DO WUIV KMK.I u; it Mats 2.1a Eves 33c Kiddles Dims PLEA FOR L SALEM, Sept. 18. (AP) There will be no deviation from the original allocation of federal highway funds In Oregon, the state highway com mission Informed Portland and Mult nomah county officials late yester day. Portland and vicinity had asked for 60 per cent of the federal public works funds granted to Oregon for city streets and secondary roads. "Your written demand and argu ments advanced by your proponents before the commission September 16 were given careful consideration," the letter read In part, "but after due deliberation It Is the opinion of the commission that the allocation of such highway funds which has been heretofore made, and to which you object, la proper and equitable, and accords with the letter and spirit of the law. "Highway construction can not provide all relief necessary. It waa never contemplated that the funds made available for highway construc tion would or could provide for all of the unemployment. The alloca tion of the $6,000,000 to Oregon, out of $400,000,000 made available for the entire country, waa almply to afford a measure of relief until other funds available under the loan and grant provisions of the law could be ac quired."
