Project Will Be Recom
mended to Department of
Commerce by Lieutenant
Smith and Major Sandry
ASHLAND, Jan. 35. (fipl.) Lieut
Baill B. Smith, aeronaut tea director
for the department of commerce in
Oregon, and Major George E. Sandy,
airport engineer, will recommend to
the department of commerce officials
In Washington, D. c, approval of the
propoaed expenditure of 75.000 for
building an airport at Ashland, un
der the OWA, It was learned yester
day. The two officials Inspected the
site Juat south of the city yesterday
morning.
Lieut. Smith and Major Sandy met
Marshall C. Hoppln, regional airport
advisor for the western states, at
Medford and conferred with him on
the project..
The officials explained here that
the Ashland airport improvement pro
posal presents an unusual set-up, in
that any expenditures of more thin
25,000 which are approved by the
state officials, must receive final ap
proval from the department of com
merce et Washington. They also
pointed out that they are not con
sidering expenditure of the money
here as an improvement but . t-tr
building a new airport, since Ash
land does not have an airport at the
present time, but mervly a site for
an airport.
Major Sandv stated that United
States army p.ots, who have ferried
planes from the Boeing factory at
Seattle south, are all anxious to have
the Ashland site developed as an air
port because It is out of the fog
belt. The desire to have the Ashland
airport developed is due to the fact
that when the entire valley is blank
eted' by fog, the site for the proposed
Ashland airport Is fog-free.
The attitude of the federal govern
ment toward the proposal is based
on its safety factor, it was stated.
Lieut. Smith and Major Sandy con
ferred with Hoppln and Inspector
Jurevloh Wednesday afternoon and
proceeded north for Inspection ot
other airport improvement proposals,
The plan. If given final approval,
will mean employment of 332 men tn
Ashland for a period of 85 days.

An editorial in the Wednesday Issue
of the Ashland Tiding says:
"Recommendation of expenditure
of 75,000 for building an airport at
Ashland by department of commerce
officials, following Inspection of the
site this morning, Is another step to
ward consummation of a dream long
held by local citizens.
"Lieut. Smith and Major Sandy,
department of commerce officials, de
clared they believed expenditure of
the money for building a port here
would be Justified. Their opinion
Is not a hasty one, but one which i
supported by physical data on fog
conditions here over period of 13
years, the opinions of pilots operat
ing over this area, and results of sur
veys by air transportation companies.
"The city council has secured suf
ficient property so the port can be
constructed to meet the. maximum
requirements of the federal govern
ment. "Building of an adequate port would
provide a most valuable asset for na
tional defense. A squadron of planes
stationed here could, In the event
of war, protect a large section ot the
coast line in operations from this
port. The field could bs used at any
time of the year because It is fox
free. "Instead of opposing expenditure
of a large amount of money for the
airport here. Medford should be boost
ing the project, if only as ft matter
of self-protect Ion. Medford's great
Investment In its fine airport would
go for naught If the airlines should
follow the inland airway now under
construction. Ports are now under
construction from The Dalles to
Klamath Falls, at Bend. Redmond.
Madras, Maupln, Klamath Falls and
The Dalles.
"Building of a port at Aahlanl
would insure continued operation of
air lines through this valley,1

Born, to Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gen
try of 615 Liberty street, a daughter,
weighing eight pounds, Saturday.
NEW YORK. Jan. 34. (AP) Doris
Stevens, feminist leader, came back
from Montevideo today Jubilant be
cause the recent Pan-American con
ference was "the first confer
ence that ever has said women are
as Important as debts and tariffs."
Under Its caption, "Introducing,"
the United Air Lines News, tn Its .ui
isue, prints the following praise of
Seely V. Hall, valley born and raised,
and son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Court Hell:
"An 'old timer' on the Pacific Co;
route of the United Air Llnea Is a
fellow who can recall the days when
Just about any cleared space was an
Intermediate landing field, when
farmers, drug store clerk snd hotel
proprietors were 'airway meteorolog
ists.' and when open-cockpit two
seater planes made up the line's mod
ern fleet.
"Seely Hall Is an old timer.
"Now field manager for Unlted's
Pacific Air Transport division at Se
attle, Seely can tell you how he once
rode up and down the proposed air
route In a rattling old Lizzie, pick
ing out likely looking landing spots
and appointing weather observers. An
observer then was anybody who could
tell you whether It was raining, sun
shining or snowing, and who could
Inform you as to whether he could
sen si Perkins' barn, the lonesome
pine or some other object a quarter
to a half-mile away.
"Hall was born at Central Point,
Ore., in 1803, the son of pioneers. He
went to school in Medford, drove
stages to Crater Lake national park
and, after that, took over in auto
mobile agency. Came the war and
Seely enlisted In the Signal corps
branch of the air service. At Sin
Diego, he was with Hebe Miller in
the motor repair shops of the First
Aero spuadron. Russ Cunningham
was there, too. as a flying cadet. .
"After the war, Seely bought a
Jenny and formed the Medford Air
craft company. Actually, about 25
people owned the plane, slnoe Seely
raised money for its purchase by
promising a ride to everyone who
bought a $100 share, and there were
many responses. With his ship, he
barnstormed through Oregon and;
eastern Washington. His plane, in-;
cldentally. was the first of the clv
Ulsn type to fly over the Siskiyou
mountains and to go up the Columbia
River gorg.
"Wedding bells sounded and Seeiy
sold the Jenny, to pursue various ac
tivities until 1925, when he became

Fifty Per Cent
CHICAGO, Jan. 2oWAP) An
increase of 60 per cent over last
year in the appropriation for news
paper advertising of the Oeneral
Household Utilities company was
announced today by William Q,
Grunow, president. The firm man
ufactures Grunow electric refriger
ators and radios.
'We have decided to lncresse
our newspaper advertising appro
priation thin year," Grunow said,
"because we believe newspapers
are one of the most effective me
diums for reaching the consumer.'
He said the company looked for
ward to greater business this year
than ever before, largely because
rt increased Durehnsine power.
I
the route, he became associated with
this project.
"Seely had charge of the Medford
station for Pacific Air Transport for
four years, then went to Loa Angeles
as division superintendent. Later be
became field manager at San Diego
and In September of last year, was
transferred to Seattle. With Mrs. Hall
and their two youngsters, he now is
getting accustomed to Washington

BAKER, Ore., Jan. 35. CAP) The
community of Bourne in Baker
county, which in the 1030 census
was one of the two points in the Un
ited States with a population of one
person, may soon claim the more
enviable distinction of being the
fastest growing community under
Uncle Barn's flag.
Basil Prescott of Los Anegels has
launched an extensive gold mining
development on the main properties
along a four-mile vein In the Bourne
district and 30 men are now at work
removing old machinery from the E.
dc E. mill where the new plant will
be located.
Arrangements are said to have been
made for a large supply of machin
ery and electric current for a pilot
mill of 160 tons dally capacity.
Prescott lnltl mated 600 men will

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25 (Spl.)
A meeting of congress members from
western states where predatory ani
mal control work has been conduct
ed was held recently to determine
the procedure to be followed to com
bat the proposed reductions in the
budget of the department of agricul
ture for such work. Cougressman
James W. Mott of Oregon attended
the meeting and Is cooperating with
the group.
The appropriation of predatory ani
mal control work last year was 530.
000. The estimate for the 1035 ap
propriation is (01,343. This is a
drastic cut and will practically elim
inate this work next year In Oregon
and the other western states affect
ed. Much benefit has been derived
from this work In the past and Its
discontinuance will not only mean
a great loss to the state but will also
undo all the good previously accomp
lished. As a result of the meeting, a com
mittee of two congressmen Lea of
California and Taylor of Colorado
was appointed to present the whole
problem to President Roosevelt and
request .him to recommend a sup
plemental appropriation to take care
of this work.
Congressman Mott is hopeful that
this effort will meet with success.
