DWINDLING RACE OF Leaders Fear invading Hordes Will Pour Over Undefended Frontiers if Population Grows Sparse Communications Don't Overlook Norton. To the Editor: Observing that an attempt Is being made by certain people living in Josephine county, who are undoubt edly misguided and misinformed as to the true facts, to stir up again the turmoil which was prevalent in this county some several years ago, through an unwarranted and un justified attack upon Judge Norton. want to take this opportunity to again call to the attention of the voters In Jackson and Josephine counties, the fortunate position which they occupy in having a man of Judge Norton's qualifications, high moral standing and integrity upon the circuit bench. Not only is Judge Norton learned in the law, absolutely impartial and unbiased, and with a wonderful knowledge of human nature, but his character, moral fibre and Integrity are above reproach in all things, and It Is unthinkable that anyone, who might desire a free, well-qualified judiciary should advocate In any particular any opposition to Judge Norton. I feel that this is the sltua tlon in this district, but because of the fact that the place where the Judiciary candidates appear on the ballot is not very prominent and can easily be overlooked, there is some danger that many voters might not cast their ballot for Judge Nor ton, and this opposition might gar ner a few votes. Hence, may I most respectfully urge upon all voters the necessity of seeing to it that their ballot Is cast for Judge Norton In the interest 01 good government. GEORGE M. ROBERTS. Medford, November 5. Frank Anderson Endorsed. To the Editor: I have personally known Mr. Frank E. Anderson for a good many years. He la the democratic candidate for constable. He is also the only one to have run in the primaries. He has lived here for the past 25 years, at tended local schools and is a gradu ate of O. S. C. school of pharmacy.

Massock, PARIS. (AP) France, warned by Mussolini to halt her falling birth rate, is worrying about her place in Europe's population race. She Is afraid invading hordes eventually will pour over undefended frontiers if her population dwindles Italy's premier predicts. Unless French marriages and ba bies multiply in the near future Mussolini warned there will be only half as many Frenchmen within a scant 60 years, or 20,000,000 as com pared to the present 40.000.000. Sees Colored Peril. I The prophesy by the Italian chief was in an article In which he won dered "If the white man's civiliza tion" would not disappear in the face of the "continual numerical growth and uninterrupted territorial ex pan slon of the yellow and black races.' There Is not an hour to lose In seeking remedies." he told France. That neighborly warning from foreign chief of state has served to iocus trances attention on an ap peal to the nation" issued by 20 prominent French leaders a few months back, but generally ignored "Rapid depopulation," said the ap peal, "threatens commerce and in dustry wtth failure for want of con sumers; the state with bankruptcy for want of taxpayers and the coun try with Inability to protect it frorv tiers for want of defenders." Marriage Bonus L'rpetl. That appepal was signed by such personages as Raymond Poincare former president; Edouard Herrlot, former premier; Mme. Ferdinand Foch, widow of the marshal, and Cardinal Verdler. Critics of the government, which Is doing nothing they say to encourage marriage, are demanding that it fol low the example of the neighboring dictators, Hitler and Mussolini, who are making marriage virtually oblig atory for state employes and attract ive to others by bonuses. Extension of water purification to the smaller cities, where as many as nine out of every 100,000 Inhabitants died In 1920 from typhoid fever. Is among the suggestions to help lower the death rate. Coffins Race Cradle. Nearly 40.000 fewer children were born to French families In 1933 than in 1932, while the deaths last year exceeded those of the previous year. The births were 682,680 and the deaths 661,082, leaving a net popula tion gain of only 21,598, or about one-third that of 1932. Fewer births eventually will mean fewer marriages, says the appeal, so that If the birth decline continues Meteorological Report November S, 1934. Forecasts.

Howaid, stint superintendent of schools, gave some pertinent facts concerning the pro posed "20 mill tax limlattion amend ment" to the Oregon constitution, which will be referred to the voters of Oregon at the general election Tuesday. In a general statement concerning the school districts of the entire state, Mr. Howard said: "Revenue that would have been derived If thiB amendment had been in operation during the school year of 1932-33 would have been five and three-quarters million dollars leas than the act ual expenses of the ctementnry and high schools that year and this was a year of rigid curtailment in sala ries and other expenses." The exact amount under the necessary pensea would have been $5,806,741 as given by Mr. Howard. Mr. Howard also gave some very Interesting facts particularly concern ing union high schools and non-high school districts. At' the present time the union high schools are supported by a levy on the entire union dis trict. This levy Is in addition to the lavlea for the elementary school dis tricts comprising the union district. According to Mr. Howard, the limi tation amendment would give the gross school levy to 5 mills and. as this amount would piubably be re quired for the elementary schools, no union high schools could operate. To quote Superintendent Howard: "Prob ably no union high school district In the state could make a levy for high school purposes and as there are 85 union high schools with a total en rollment of 9728 pupils, this would mean that this number of students would not be able to attend high school." Much of the same situation would exist In the non-high school district! if this bill were to pass. Mr. How ard stated that there wero 6121 pu pils in non-high school districts in the state. These districts would also be limited to n levy of 6 mills and therefore unable to send their pupils to outside high schools. Quoting Mr. Howard in regard to this situation In Jackson county: "Jackson county has 629 high school pupils from non-high school territory. If this measure were to pass these pupils would not be able to attend high school at all." "The limitation amendment would also affect other state institution!). According to Superintendent Howard, the state tax levy is now 4ft mills, exclusive of Income and other special taxes. Of this sum 2 mill are now used for the elementary schools only This bill would limit the state levy to mills, thereby leaving the schools as well aa the state tuberculosis hos pital, boys' and girls' Industrial train ing schools, penitentiary and other major Institutions with insufficient financial support. "All the figures given were com piled and carefully checked in our orfice from reports in the state tax commissions' office," Superintendent Howard said. s NEW YORK. Nov. S. Natalia Couch, republican candidate for coi- groasman at large, announced today that she will challenge the vote of Mrs. Anna Dall, President Roosevelt's daughter, should she cast a ballot at the election tomorrow. Expressing her challenge in a tele gram to Mrs. Franklin D, Roosevelt at Hyde Park, Natalie Couch wrote as follows: "I am sending this telegram to you as matron of the White House and a an active participant in the demo cratic campaign against my candi dacy for representative In congress at large from the state of New York. "I am informed that a member of your household, on or about Juno 17, last, established legal residence in th state of Nevada for personal reasons. In which I haw no interest. "I am further Informed that tiie same member of your household has, within recent date, obtained an ab sentee ballot In Duchea county for the purpose of voting In the forth coming; election. If thla Is true. I am vitally interested. "I call your attention to section 150 of article 7 of the election law and to sections 1620 and 1633 of ar ticle 158, chapter 41, of the penal law. "I shall see that such a vote is challenged for the purpose of preserv ing an honest ballot." The wire waa signed "Natalie Couch." GRAZING POLICY . WILL BE TALKED WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.
