L BOND ISSUE VOTE SET FORDEC. 4TH (Continued unn page one) Fortunately, there Is yet time in which to reclaim the -water resources of the nation and it Is with this con structive attitude that the newspa pers have taken up the cruuade against stream pollution, officials here declare. Here again Medford can keep In step with other communities through out the nation which realize the dire danger of stream pollution and as a result have built modern, up-to-date aewage disposal plants. Epidemic Feared Health authorities have repeatedly stated that It was almost a miracle that an epidemic did not occur in Medford during the warm days of last summer. With the present plant, there is always ths possibility of an epidemic of some kind breaking out. but with the erection of a complete plant as is proposed this can be en tirely eliminated. Numerous suits have been brought against the cliy and In all probability others will fol-1 low unless some adequate protection Is given those who have been harmed by existing conditions. Grants Pass voters have already ip. proved building of a sewage disposal plant in the Climate City and Baker Is at the present time building one. Klamath Falls and LaGraude already have adequate systems and It there fore behooves citizens of Medford to see that this city Is given the same protection as other communities in southern Oregon and throughout the state. 4 PLANS FESTIVITY Members of the Roxy Ann grange an dthelr frlenda are anticipating the Thanksgiving eve dance and program dedicating their new ball on Spring street.
