Billings of Ashland will represent Jackson county at a meeting In En- gene, November B, of representatives of 18 western Oregon counties com ing under the Oregon -California land grant act. Purpose of the meeting la to frame recommendations to the state planning commission for dis posal of land grant lands. One plan advanced calls for Inclu sion of the grant land In the nations! forest reserves. The western Oregon counties feel this plan la not accept able, unless they receive revenues in lieu of taxes. It la also expected that the ques tion of annual revenue to the coun ties will be specified in measures com ing before the next session of con gress. The O. ft C. land grant was Issued to the Southern Pacific railroad or lglnally, and the corporation paid an nual taxes upon It until 1918. That year the land reverted back to ths government. In 192S, the O. ft C. land grant fund bill was passed, which reimbursed the counties for taxes they would have received from the railroad. Some of the money received from thla source was used by Jackson coun ty In the construction of the new courthouse. In 1933, the federal government ruled that the 1933 O.-C. money should not be paid from the general treasury, but from the O.-C. special fund, made up of receipts from tim ber sales, gracing fees, and other sources. Half paymenta were made, and the county courts were recently advised that funds for payment of the last half of the claim were available. It amounts to approximately $32,000, and Jackson county has filed formal application for it with the treasury department at Washington, D. C. INSULL DEFENDS SELF ON CHARGE OF PORTLAND, Nov. 1. (P) Eight young men who were engaged In the , midwest to drive caravans of new automobiles to Portland for local dealers, have the NRA to thank for the Utile money they received for the long trip. The eight unemployed youths were picked up at the factory site and re ceived a email amount of money In advance for expenses on the western trip. They were stranded here, pen niless. James Bretherton, NRA compliance officer, took a hand. He managed to get 17 for each of the boya In addi tion to the advance, after insisting on payment of wages In full. Bretherton aald the practice of running "new-car" caravans to the west la growing and that many un employed men are being left here stranded, to become a burden on western relief organizations. STORM WARNINGS FLY ON NORTHWEST COAST PORTLAND, Nov. 1. (P) Small craft warnings were continued at all Oregon and Washington coast sta tions today as fresh to strong winds were predicted for today and tonight. Intermittent rains yesterday and last night added .69 of an lncb to Portland's precipitation total. (Continued from page one.) "I could have gone to England and duplicated the reputation there that I've made here. There were only two reasons why I did not. Felt Obligation. ' The first was my obligation to my associates here, and the second my obligation to the security holders, who provided me with money to do it." Insull's defense of his middle west ern utility ventures, which crashed in 2933 with thousands of stockhold ers aboard, came at the close of a morning's testimony In which he re counted the story of his rise from an office boy's Job in London to the mastery of a huge electric system. Now generally as to your power pool " his attorney, Floyd E.Thomp' son, began. Insull, facing the Jury, raised his voice to Its full power, slapped bis fist on the chair and declared: "It's a devtlopment that has con tributed more toward the wealth of this Mississippi valley than all the losses of any securities I have Is sued." Co-Workers Praised. Once he stopped to praise a half dozen of the other defendanta, par ticularly the youngest of them, John P. O'Keefe, formerly Insull's secre tary. "He's as loyal to me in adversity," said Insull with great force, "as he was In my prosperity. "As to these various people In the utility securities compsny who are defendants," he told'the Jurors, 'they have no more to do with this case than you gentlemen sitting there. His offer from Prime Minister Bald win, Insull said, came after be had testified before a royal commission Investigating the possibilities of long distance power development In England. "I went to London on business In 1936," said the witness. "I found a call at my office from Downing street. I went down and saw Mr. Stanley Baldwin." Why I Favor The Chest GET ORDERS ON I (Continued iron pi one.) Publlo spirited men and women oi this city will be anxious to ofrer their services in the campaign for Community Chest funds next week. The meeting tonight at the court house should be well attended! The organizations participating In Chest funds are not asking for more money than last year. Instead, they are eliminating duplication of effort and combining several drives for welfare money in one well -organized campaign. In my opinion, the Com munity Chest offers a thoroughly business-like method of gathering and distributing money for welfare and character - building activities. Medford citizens should, and. I'm sure, will generously support this campaign which has been launched today. WILLIAM P- ISAACS. Proprietor, The Toggery. ID FOR BILBO WASHINGTON, Nov. 1. (p) P urnlng to the capital In a Jocular mood, Theo. O. Bilbo said today the reason he started his successful cam- paign for the senate was to get "a place to park my car."

I don t know whether a parking place went with the Job or not. But they didn't give me one. anyway. "That's why I ran for the senate. So I could have a place to park my car. Now I can park It in a million dollar garage." of the five groups to make actual canvassing of the city are as fol lows: Northwest-Red: Justin Smith, captain. George Henselman and Mrs. I C. C.
