PAGE EIGHT1 MEDFORD M23E TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAT, MAT 25, 1934. DECLARED KEY AREA'S UPBUILDING Vast Resources of Timber, Metal, Fruit, Cement Now Hampered by High Freight Army Engineers Are Told Pleas (or the Orescent City hsrbor development were made yesterday afternoon before the army board of harbor engineera, Col. William P. Bar den, chairman, by citizen of Jack- . son, Josophlne and Del Norte, (Oallf.) counties. The burden of their teati' mony was that water rates would brine Industrial and resource develop. ment, now restricted by high freight rates. C. K. (Pop) Gates closed wun an appeal, "give u a harbor; any kind of a harbor. If you can't give us a big one, give us a small one, but . give us a harbor. Our destiny la In your hands." Mabel R. O o o d w 1 n, president of the Orescent City business and Professlonsl Women's club told the board, "all we ask Is help for the three forgotten counties Josephine, Douglas and Del Norte." Ellis Rums Up. W. P. Ellis of Balem, rate expert, made the summation for the district and submitted a supplemental brief. Re held the harbor and a railroad would open up a trade area extend ing as far east as Lakevlew, provide an outlet for timber and give lower freight rates. Col. Barden questioned the feasibility of a railroad, and quoted from the railroad examiner's report. The colonel argued tnai an' other railroad would not materially effect the freight rates. Ellis declared the adverse report of l,t. Col. Finch "was made with a too localised vision." He declared "this problem should be viewed from a na tional standpoint. It tits In with the administration plans for decentraliza tion of population," Would Release Chrome, O. 8. Barton, mining man. Inter eated the board with his statement that a harbor would provide an out let for chrome mine development, now retarded by prohibitive freight rates. Barton developed chrome mines In Del Norte county during the war. Barton said eastern manufacturing concerns would use chrome, but for prohibitive freight rates. W. H. Mulrhead, manager of the Beaver-Portland oement plant at Gold Hill, told the army board that freight rates now prevailing, gave California plants the edge, but a harbor, with water competition, would enable Ore gon cement to meet "keen competi tion," and "enter Portland and Co lumbia river markets on the same . basis." i Mulrhead said If a harbor was es tablished at Crescent City, his com pany could move their plant to their quarry at Wlldervllle, and use the j 7S-mlle truck haul Into Orescent City. He said many limestone and cement deposits were now dormant. Ployd H. Hart ofthe Timber Pro ducts company described the lumber areas that would be open by a water outlet, and said that the harbor would provide oheap transpotratlon to large bodies of government timber In the forest reserve areas. Cannery Aid Been, W. A, Gates, of tho Economy Oro- eeterlas, and H. O. Wilson, Oranta rase grooer, declared water rates would provide cheaper costs on canned goods. Gates said that under the present rail rates cannery develop ment In southern Oregon was re tarded. Thomas Peacock, chairman of the Crescent Olty harbor board, said that dockage could be provided, by a bond - tasue, and all reasonable assurance could be given the docks could be taken care of." B. M. Tuttle, of the B. O. B spoke (or the fruit Interests, and said water rates would mean a saving of 1300,000 per year, and provide cheaper and bet ter refrigeration for fruit shipments. The army board, In the ordinary course, will hand down Its findings and recommendations In from three to four months.

E 25,000 Return To Catholic Church in Vienna Alone Overthrow Of Social Dem ocracy Is Believed Cause By WADE WERNER VIENNA (AP) Tens of thousands of new members are flocking Into Austria's churches. The semi-official "Polltlsche Kor respondcnB," calling attention to the return of approxlmtely 36,000 men and women to the Catholic church In Vienna alone, bellevea It Is a mat ural result of the destruction of so cial democracy In Austria. 8ays this semi-official organ: "In consequence of the overthrow of social democracy, which hs4 suc ceeded In estranging hundreds of thousands from the church by terror istic methods and by heaping con, tempt on Its representatives and most sacred symbols, there hss de veloped In all parts of Austria a 'back-to-the-church movement - sim ply astonishing In extent." Protestant Views Differ On the other hand, at headquar ters of the Protesant churches f Augs- berg and Helvetlo confessions), the Influx of almost 30,000 new members In Austria sines February 13 la In. terpretcd as a revival of the Pro. testant faith stimulated by opposl tlon to the government's goal of es tablishing a Chrlatian-Cathollo state. Protestant leaders also point out, however, that some who drifted out of the churches when the socialist party dominated Vienna, are coming Decic now. The Jewish newspaper "Neue Welt" puts still another Interpretation on the new popularity of church mem bership. Unofficial but nevertheleas persistent and quiet elimination of Jews from academic and professional posts, says this newspaper, coupled with an official emphasis on the onrlstlan-German" character of the new Austria, Is causing among faint hearted Jews a ' 'baptismal move ment" an attempt to make them selves "Christian-German" by Joining a vnnscian cnurcn. Journal Decries Conversion What percentage of the new Pro testant and Catholic church members are of Jewish ancestry Is not clear. Tne "Neue Welt" Itself does not at tempt to estimate. But It does protest vehemently against tne suggestion vloced In some pro-government quarters no tably In the "Llnzer Vouksblatt" to the effect that the only satisfactory solution of the Jewish problem Is tne conversion of ths Jews to Chris, tlanlty. "The bait of baptism doubtless will be effective with certain so- oalled 'Jewish elements' of the pop ulation," observes the "Neue Welt," but the great mass of Jews will re- Maid ,at "' ainnis NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY HllIIIE-- main and with them the Jewish prob lem. The Jewish problem must be solved here by the Jews and the Christiana but not via the bap tismal font I" Just what the churchward move, ment since February 13 actually means thus remains a matter of opinion. Protestant leaders contend their new memberships are signifi cant only because about 300,000 Aus- trlsns out of a total population of 0,600,000, were listed as Protestants. An Increase of 30,000 Is, therefore, percencually, a big growth, particu larly as It developed In less than three months. 4- GOING SATURDAY Jackson county's caravan to Ore gon Caves resort will leave the Chamber of Commerce building here at noon Saturday, according to A. H. Banwell, manager. The caravan will celebrate the opening of the beautiful Oregon Caves chateau this week end. Saturday evening's dinner dance, an overnight stay at the new Oregon Oaves chateau, and Sunday morning breakfast comprise the Jack son County day opening festivities at the caves and, Judging from pres ent Indications, there will be a large and representative group of Jackson county residents In the caravan. Speclsl rates have been announced for the entire week-end festivities and Interested persons are asked to phone the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce for Information. City Bankruptcy Measure Signed WASHINGTON, May 38. UP) President Roosevelt today signed the municipal bankruptcy bill to allow scaling down of city obligations. The president also approved a meas ure liberalizing the naturalization and citizenship laws, particularly relating to women. The Kansax legislature. In .nodal session, made possession of machine guns by Individuals Illegal. The magician will tell you that "the hand is quicker than the eye." His skill will bear that out. But sleight of hand is not very successful when you use it with "bargain counter" coffees. Your handi work with the coffee pot and a cheap grade of coffee will invariably be shown up, for in this case the taste of your husband, and others, is "quicker than the eye." If you want to be always suc cessful with this coffee-making act, use Hills Bros. Coffee. It costs a little more, but you can "take" more fine cups of cof fee out of a pound than any magician could get from the same amount of "bargain counter" coffee. And surely that's what you want. Don't you drink coffee by the cup rather than by the pound? i C'H'itli It. 14 Hilli t'H, L SCOUTS' COURT OF AWARD IS SLATED SATURDAY AT 2 P. M.
